of course leading with love we find ourselves

Hi Sey,
I find your descriptions about the location of the “point of view” really fascinating, thank you for sharing :slight_smile: I’ve never had anything like that, except maybe the sense that something like that was about to happen, but it felt deeply frightening, which stopped it from happening.
Occasionally however, I do get flashes (or hints) of experience of a given situation from another person’s point of view. And I also experience “thinking other peoples’ thoughts”, which seems to hint at a deeper underlying “centerlessness” which I am yet to fully uncover.
Best

It’s a pleasure. I must clarify that I have never been inside another person’s mind. I generally have no knowledge of another’s world. I constantly notice thoughts that float by that are clearly not my own (not relevant to me) but I have no idea where they originate from.

I haven’t actually been inside a person’s mind either. It’s more like an impression of something that they perceived has come into my consciousness. More commonly, it is experienced as being aware of certain mental tendencies/thoughts that someone else might have, as if they were happening to me. Sometimes I end up identifying with those tendencies/thoughts.

Often I attribute these tendencies/thoughts to a particular situation, but it might have been just “me” all along.

Let me also mention that while sometimes I am sensitive to this stuff, I also have periods of just being the in physical side of world, where I don’t experience this stuff.

Greetings dear friends, my good companions on this journey.
I am now past the 20 year milestone and should move this thread to “The Advanced Years”
and say something about the10 middle years gone by - except it is one of the days when I feel I know squat. I’ll come back tomorrow…
