Whoah. I've had my share of spiritual and consciousness-related experiences over the years, and a handful of them have been extremely intense. At some point I'll try and recount them here if they come to mind or I find context for them. The change in awareness that I have been carrying these past couple of weeks has continued, and something happened to me yesterday that was entirely new for me. Yesterday I was walking in a hallway of my home when I felt something, probably best described as an icy finger, touch my back above my left shoulder blade. I stopped and immediately swung my right arm back over my shoulder to touch the area, because the sensation, although it stimulated nerves (or felt as such), it was not something I'd never felt before.
I suppose you could say it was similar to those occasional phantom pains we can get from time to time... super-quick and gone before you can react. But this was different and not painful, just intense. It felt like a mixture of hot and cold. As I swung my right arm behind my head so that my hand could touch the area, the sensation that began as a singular point began to travel down my back diagonally, moving down toward my right side and leaving a trail of sensation in its wake. My next reaction, right arm still bent back behind my neck, was to flip my head back to look up, because my brain immediately reacted as something must be leaking from the ceiling. There was nothing there.
What's even more strange to me is that where the sensation settled, now on my right side below my shoulder blade, a sensation remains. It's not the same as what I described as feeling like someone's icy cold finger anymore though. Now it feels like a constant pulsation, radiating from the point where the movement stopped. I only slept for about three hours last night but what got me up this morning was the new radiating sensation. I have been meditating and reading a lot during waking hours, as if driven. The drive I feel is like that of what I called a New Spiritual Wind in a previous post - that I've experienced every so-many years or so, but this is different. It's as if my attention is being directed. As I move from one book or meditation to another, it's as if there is a constant information echo through which certain teachings or principles appear to me at a rate of frequency that would be most comparable to advertising. Wow. More as this develops.
