RE: Seeing the 'Net' that seemingly connects us all. Part 1
I felt so calm and peaceful, I didn't feel any of the pain, I couldn't really feel my body, it just felt like I was part of the cliff side.
Wow!!! Yes, I have experienced - do experience - something like that, but not so auditory. More of a FELT SENSE. Gosh, I wish I could see that technicolour net!!! My brain just doesn't think in colours. Perhaps it's a synasthesia type thing?
I get the feeling that there is no 'I' and no 'it' - the boundary between my known self and nature just falls away or disintegrates - it's a hugely beautiful feeling, a sense of being in an infinite space.
I adored this post - my mana is down but I'll share it in @naturalemedicine so I can come back to it later and upvote it x
Hey hey @riverflows! Ah I am really happy i've managed to connect with a few people that have some sense of what I am experiencing. The feeling of being in infinite space is very apt. And yes you are right, there is no I and It, it seems that way because we continually reinforce such a reality, even my words in this article did so, but if you can tune into it whichever way works for you, as we have a whole array of senses, you can momentarily experience a somewhat different reality.
I have been reading about synathesia since i saw your comment this morning, I had heard of it, sort of had a vague understanding of what it is, but after some afternoon reading trying to avoid doing work, i realised that I actually do experience the following kinds of it-
Spatial sequence synesthesia- "Those with spatial sequence synesthesia (SSS) tend to see numerical sequences as points in space. For instance, the number 1 might be farther away and the number 2 might be closer. People with SSS may have superior memories; in one study, they were able to recall past events and memories far better and in far greater detail than those without the condition. They also see months or dates in the space around them. Some people see time like a clock above and around them."
Number form- "A number form is a mental map of numbers that automatically and involuntarily appears whenever someone who experiences number-forms synesthesia thinks of numbers. Number forms were first documented and named in 1881 by Francis Galton in "The Visions of Sane Persons".
Auditory-tactile synesthesia- "In auditory-tactile synesthesia, certain sounds can induce sensations in parts of the body. For example, someone with auditory-tactile synesthesia may experience that hearing a specific word feels like touch in one specific part of the body or may experience that certain sounds can create a sensation in the skin without being touched. It is one of the least common forms of synesthesia"
The Next One is not constant, but during heightened emotional states I have experienced it many times: Mirror-touch synesthesia
Main article: Mirror-touch synesthesia
"This is a rare form of synesthesia where individuals feel the same sensation that another person feels (such as touch). For instance, when such a synesthete observes someone being tapped on their shoulder, the synesthete involuntarily feels a tap on their own shoulder as well. People with this type of synesthesia have been shown to have higher empathy levels compared to the general population. This may be related to the so-called mirror neurons present in the motor areas of the brain, which have also been linked to empathy"
There are over 80 different types, and i do now think that yeah I have some form of this, but also it's all blowing my mind with lots of intuition flooding in around it. Are all these different forms of this 'condition' actually evidence that humans are evolving? Are we discovering latent senses and perhaps new pathways are being activated between our currently active neurology, and is this what is allowing people to work on a healing/psychic level ???
Note this sentance from Wiki- "Most synesthetes report that their experiences are pleasant or neutral". Few people are suffering directly as a result of it, perhaps indirectly as a result of confusion and not understanding why you seem and think so different, which i now think is one factor in my mental battles. I don't know if seeing the net is anything to do with this, but yeah although I was fully aware, only recently accepting, of perceiving things differently that most, I had no idea how much of how I experience my surroundings is maybe not that common.
I am so glad for that comment, it's like dropped a bomb in my mind and I can totally see this turning into a research binge!
Ha bingeaway... there's a documentary on it somewhere as well. People good at maths often have the number one!! We got into it because my son has it. It's fascinating. Miles Davis and Kandinsky had it. I will write about it more later.... I think its pleasant unless you are the guy that tastes earwax whenever he hears a certain name.... eek! Cool you have had a little self discovery there!!!

Oddly though I am rubbish at math!!!! Ha! Is your son good with numbers? Yea I am seeing a future blog here, but a while off this is a huge topic. But ill let you know when i do it!
ewww tasting earwax .............id take the net anyday!
Thanks again! x
Lol. My son is good at everything. Not even joking! Especially music....
