When this happens with parts of the network that are involved with the visual system, for instance, the visual field can actually dissolve into a bunch of vibrations temporarily as you refactor parts of the network related to extremely low level things like edge or motion detection (this is also where ‘auras’ come from imo)
Wow, I’ve never heard of this, and it sounds really interesting. Would you care to elaborate, on what kind of refactoring is going on, and what the resulting ‘auras’ are / mean?
If you shut down certain error correction mechanisms you might see a red glow around a green object, a orange glow around a blue object and similar effects.
When people are then very surprised about witnessing those effects, it’s often easy to sell them the idea that there are mysterious powers involved in aura seeing.
When it comes to more advanced work with the concepts, some people seem to have synesthesia where some their brain manages to express some intuitive information that’s available to them in forms of colors.
Cool. I’ve had one brief, spontaneous experience, while circling, of that sort of concept → vision ‘synaesthesia’: seeing dark halos around people, that I think represented their anxiety and desire to avoid talking about certain things.
But I’d never imagined working deliberately with vision in that way.
The perception for emotional states that I developed myself is very kinesthetic in nature. I can see how the phrase “dark halos” would map there, but for myself it has a slightly different quality. Aliveness might be a name for my qualia. It’s certainly very different then the kind of aura glow effects that get created by shutting down error correction.
From what I heared of other people it seems that some people have experiences where there are colors as well.
When I’m doing circling or leading a meditation the kind of informationen you point to is an important guidance for me.

exactly this! Thanks.

I think that’s the direction.
