It’s great to hear of personal experiences of others. A couple of questions:
— (1) —
@Christian
“…real jhana shakes up the whole worldview especially materialistic.”
Is the “shaking up” due to the fact that one has entered another loka, i.e. the rupavacara brahma loka? So that now one sees first hand that other lokā other than the kama loka exist?

@Lal
P.S. Also, to reach magga phala, two more stages of Anuloma (A) and Gotrabu (G) must be accessed. For example, a Sotapanna Anugami may reach the upacāra samadhi and not go through the other two stages for a while (could be months or years) until attaining the Sotapanna phala.
… but in the post
Citta Vīthi – Processing of Sense Inputs
… the last sentence sounds like the sotapanna anugami stage happens at the Gotrabu moment:
“The change to an Ariya happens even before the Sōtapanna phala moment, at the Gotrabu (G) moment. Gotra means “lineage,” and Gotrabu is the change of lineage. Thus, one would become a Sōtapanna Anugāmi with the Gotrabu citta.”
Best,
Lang
