"One more thing as to this thread. You talk of ungrounded shifts. Just a few days ago I was watching cars on the road at work-break, and for an interval
they became alien to me , as if I had never seen them before."
I get this too. It is from stopping the internal dialog. I can look at my hands sometimes and they look like foriegn objects. Like I don't know what hands
are.
Also, the car thing too. It seems to be a signal to me that it is beginning to happen because my sight "speeds up", so to speak. At those times I can
see the individual spokes on auto wheels as they go by. Once it got so deep and weird that it began with cars and then everything began to turn into white
light. I turned around and went home and called off work for the day. I didn't know how far it would go and I didn't know if I would be able to
drive,see, run machinery or even function at all.
" Once , I was recalling that feeling I have had going to a new place for the first time; the wonder and exploration of it. The freshness and almost a
sense of freedom at least if the place is comfortable. This is like my childhood, when my description of the world , words and things, would lose their form
and become strange..."
Sounds like progress to me Bob. You are remembering what it felt like to be a child. You get this in recapping and mind awareness big time.
Childhood is magical in a lot of ways that we don't even realise that we've forgotten.
"This got me to thinking. Is it possible that these stories are actual representations of AP shift? Within all 10 books there is such a panorama of
feelings, places and events, different worlds in a sense."
The first 4 or 5 books are all the same time period if I remember right. The Eagle's Gift is almost all about Carlos' and La Horda's quest to
recall things which they had completely forgotten but which had happened during this same time period. All second attention experiences and teachings. This was
the "Warrior's Task",.... To remember! And yes, it would have been an AP shift to have had those experiences it in the first place and then to
remember them again.
