Not literally, though 'feeling' does a lot of work in that sentence and rightly so. You don't exactly have a physical sensor to 'feel' sad either, which also happens up there mostly, but still people usually accept that we can 'feel' the experience of sadness.
Becoming aware of mental states influencing perception is how you register events up there (using meditation), which is what 'feeling' means in this context.
- lm28469 2y agoYou can also feel things which don't exist, or not feel thing which exist, that's not really a basis for scientific discussions Your eyes can't feel infrared yet they exist, and your eyes can be tricked into feeling movement when there is none (optical illusions) I can find you people who feel the influence of Saturn on their mood... I'm always wary of people using scientific lingo to "prove" their "feelings"; "flushing", "waves", "energy", "toxins", it's way too easy to fall into new age mumbo jumbo
- keepamovin 2y agoIt seems you don't trust your capacity for feeling. You need to develop that more, then maybe you will understand. What you say is common among people who have not learned yet
- keepamovin 2y agoYes, I literally feel the flushing. And I also hear what you say about becoming aware of subtleness to expand your awareness. This can also include physical sensations (not saying it’s the same thing as flushing, but), such as: feeling your heartbeat, feeling your blood pumping around. All of which I’m aware of, but I wasn’t before. Thank you for your supportive comment :)
