Here I am reliving these things, but it's extracting those things and helping you process through them.
My experience up until 2006 was that those type of things were occurring.
Like, you know, not consistently, not all the time, but it was something I would talk about with fellow meditators.
You know, you knew that something was going to happen.
You knew that someone was going to call or what someone was thinking from far away.
You have intuitions around someone and then...
You find out that they were going through exactly what you saw.
That kind of stuff isn't consistent enough, at least not in my experience, to count on it and claim, oh, I've got these powers.
But they are the kind of reality warping that can arise.
Your perception of time might even alter.
Like, you know, you savor things differently.
I was living in Jackson Heights, Queens at the time.
I was at the Dharma Center a lot of the time, but now I was really now living in my own place with my brother, who's eight years younger.
And we had a string of friends who were at any given time living with us.
And in this particular moment, it was a Saturday or a Sunday.
It was sometime in the afternoon, sunny day, and I am going to sit and do my practice.
It wasn't my regular practice time.
It was like midday, but I had kind of nothing to do.
And I was sort of conditioned to, if nothing else, I will sit and practice.
