My unrelenting experience is with seeing other’s souls. I think a lot of people do this and don’t realize it. They call them “floaters.” Those spots and waves we see in our vision. They are really more like wireless connectivity, that we have lost the software to use.
When I was a child, I was laying on the porch, studying this ant, when it stopped and there was this tiny cone of awareness, waving around with its antennae.
As a teenager, there was a certain girl I had a rather prickly friendship with and once there was this red glowing circle in my vision, that I just felt was her. There was a line running through it, pulling it towards me. The effect was a classic heart shape. Possibly the line has been analogized as Cupid’s arrow.
Having spent much of my life working with horses, it is instinctual to just bond with them. Don’t think of it as horse whispering, think of it as horse listening. Learn not to project yourself, just go totally clear and let the energy through your vision and judgement functions. Driving is a good time to practice, as people are invariably(hopefully) focused on what is in front of them and you start to sense the energy of where they are looking and the forms this manifests. Waves, edge of the road, pushing you away, etc. Even the occasional thought or few words will pop in your mind, like it came from their deeper conscious thoughts.
While this might seem off the wall, the people who know me think I’m off the wall anyway….
We are just scratching the surface of what it means to be alive.
Another of my current rants is that there are two basic ways to engage our world. Either as a specialized, or generalized view. Let’s just say I like pointing out to some people that there are reasons why the people running armies are called generals and specialist is about one rank above private.
Well, it has occurred to me that in our focused, quantized, digitized, atomized, monetized culture, generalists get little respect. For instance, how would a child who is naturally a generalist see life? Reasonably they would want to see and feel everything, so they would naturally be easily distracted by anything that gets their attention. What happens when these children go to school? They are called attention deficient and given drugs.
Yet what if they were actually encouraged in this behavior? Maybe they would just fritter away their lives on every little thing, or maybe they would start to draw the connections between all the various aspects and potentials, creating a broader vision of what is going on, than someone ever more focused and specialized on one or a few aspects of life.
Looking at the world today, we need a broader vision, since even those with most of the power are still huddled in their little cocoons and feedback loops, worried more about holding onto power, than what could be done with it.
