If that's true, it's the other side of the argument and we should all be walking around staring at one another. (that is if the ego would step aside and make soul existence more acceptable. But all peoples of Earth [or beyond] have to be in agreement to live on a soul-based level) I think that might be a big problem that most haven't discovered. (We should get world leaders to read this. LOL) "Mental Illness" must open us up to these things.
I think we are opened up to this. I have a windshield analogy I use to describe how I feel and what I believe happened to me. It is like the ego is as a windshield and in my case through psychosis that windshield was not only cracked but smashed through allowing the force of the universe, God or whatever you choose to call it, to rush in. I had a collapse of ego and my boundaries were all screwed up because I had no sense of “me” but instead had a union with all that is. I think this is why many who experience psychosis go all prophet because they feel that union. And when those boundaries are dropped we become more sensitive to the world around us and perhaps are more aware of when people are observing us because in a sense we are them as well.
Thanks for this!
