Since this is the philosophy thread (that seems to catch all things mystic and esoteric) I was alluding to the fleeting grasp of "tuning in" to the "collective consciousness" and the feelings of "oneness" with all things...I don't get this feeling very often, just once in a while when I quiet my mind and sort of relax...
It seems like the first thing that happens is that I'm overly aware of my immediate surroundings, but then if it continues its as though I can perceive things farther and farther away....like what other people I know are thinking/experiencing, places I've been, etc.
Yea, I know it sounds like LSD or mescaline....but no drugs are involved. I'm sure its rooted in my spiritual views and may be just an illusion - my only reason for posting was to see if anyone else shared the same sort of feelings/experience.
