Anyone ever experience the feeling of "hyper awareness"?
I was sitting in a class today and suddenly became "aware" of all the other student's perspectives - either imagining (or really perceiving
) the room, the discussion, everything from their viewpoint. Then I became "aware" of the perspectives of everyone I know; where they are, what they're doing, seeing, feeling, etc...
The feeling was quite overwhelming and a bit confusing at first; it was all I could do to re-focus on the lecture.
Please - no references to 'Bruce Almighty' and the prayer thing...
Addendum: Yea, I know this isn't really philosophy; but where
else would I post something like this?!
