Guest guest Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 There is something I've been experiencing with increased intensity over the past few years and I was curious about other's experiences. It has become very intense for me the past few months. I really deeply feel the suffering of others. Of course the sharp suffering endured by some when they do not have enough food to eat or the pain of illness or even death of their loved ones, but also the silly self-inflicted, almost dysfunctional " suffering " such as not getting that cool cell phone in the color they wanted. I feel " suffering " from other living beings as well, such as animals and trees. It feels like they are literally screaming out to us humans to " stop the insanity " and be more compassionate to them and others. It feels like the buzz from a big electric powerline, or when an electric device is leaking emf or something. It's constantly in the background to me, kind of like a dull headache might be, until you finally notice it. I do feel some joy from others too, but the suffering in particular is coming through quite strongly like the volume is increasing. I'm really bothered by it and feel the hurt that is going on with other humans, animals, and living beings…I do not watch the news on TV. If I run across an image or read about an atrocity while online, then I find it almost unbearable. Then I realized what I was experiencing is " Oneness " ! This feeling is growing stronger to me, especially within the recent months…like the veil is thinning, or perhaps I'm the one becoming more sensitive and subtle, even as an already sensitive pisces… I am curious to know if anyone else has experienced this sort of feeling, and if so, then does it seem more intense recently? Are there other examples of a " Oneness " kind of feeling with others? Thank you for any comments. Diana Bellucci, San Diego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Sat Nam Diana I think what you are feeling is exactly what those of us who are sensitive feel. You have such compassion for all the people, flora, fauna on the planet. I do feel that but when it gets overwhelming I have to shut it down and not watch news, or listen to radio and meditate in my gorgeous little garden that I have created with flowers and trees. I have a plethora of hummingbirds visiting and can sit there for hours. I am so fortunate. But what do you do if you don't have this place. You have to create it and share it with others and be an example. It can be anything you find as befitting a garden. The planet is indeed screaming at us and pointing out the stupidity of unkindness, sloppiness concerning usage of resources, conspicuous consumption, corporate greediness, human greediness, ignorance and on and on and on. Perhaps the people on the planet are all awakening to this and are sharing perceptually with us and this may be the beginning of huge epiphanies and just maybe, as it grows, we can stop these awful influences we have slipped into. I believe that we will reach this serendipitous moment at some point and its enlightenment will become the earth's mantle. Yes, there is this feeling of oneness but you cannot let it engulf you so deeply that you lose your self. Just your deep compassion alone is helpful. I shared my garden yesterday and we sat and just observed. Peaceful. We had never interacted this way before. Share your garden. We both felt better for it. Isn't that what Kundaline does?

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 SAT NAM Ji, I also have experienced other's negativity, suffering, feelings but not to this extent. Good to hear this. One advice is that you must heal the suffering and release it as you are aware of it, makes sense? Like for eg: Cry out of a tree... for that feeling , be present to it and send out healing energy of LOVE,LIGHT and PEACE towards them then you can feel them respond to you. You are becoming aware since you can heal them. Also, imagine sending love,light and peace to the whole earth and to all energy that comes to you and goes from you. .. kind of become like a Medium to Draw Divine energy and Heal All... by your strength and surrender..

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Yes, Diane, I feel this too. Your naming it " oneness " helps me. Yes, it can be overwhelming. I am trying to not turn away; I am trying to be a loving witness. It is very hard. Chanting helps. Grounding helps. Left nostril breathing helps. I look forward to responses from those who understand this hyper-empathy better than I. Thank you for opening the topic. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 I feel much pain as well when I stop and look at the poverty, neglected children etc., but alot also comes to me when someone is jealous toward me, or just wanting control in my workplace. Home is my refuge, and I have a good life with a special little boy whom is 17 but is not growing up, he is like a 4 year old, physically as well. Sometimes I feel to much as well. But this is so wonderful to talk to others like this.
