Hm, guess I should reread them books. My memory is fading - or rather there is just too much in there to soak it all in on the first read.

They often result in those ethereal sounds infiltrating into the sessions. With gazing, one can employ a "soft gaze" in which one allows the periphery of what is seen to fill in so that emphasis is taken off of whatever one is gazing at. In the same capacity, droning sounds, white/brown noise, binaural beats take the emphasis off specific tonal-like sounds and create a sound-scape conducive for perceptual shifts, which help foster new non-ordinary seeing and hearing....not to mention feeling strange, energetic sensations in the body like waves of energy/intensity.
So we have gazing....hearing.....feeling. I'm sure there's an ethereal analog for every tonal sense....all of them linked to an energetic whole

Yea, totally right, I forgot as I was writing my post that you do incorporate the sounds together with the gazing and such. Me, I am more of a one thing at a time kinda person when I do my practices... I also prefer live music to recordings and I found it harder to say drum to myself and travel at the same time. It needed practice and it feels almost like work hhe. I do a lot with sounds but then I do not tend to gaze. So... I guess this is an impetus for me to mix it up. I am getting a bit better at 'multitasking'

And yes, feeling things with the body... this is actually something very few talk about. We talk of seeing things, hearing things... but feeling the touch of things that weren't there? At least not visibly or audibly. I have... it is quite something too... (ofc I assume that at least in dreams quite a few of us had this kind of experience, I mean like when the real body feels things that happen in dreams - but everything is a bit more 'weird' if it is happening when awake). Have you had this experience? Do tell
all the senses indeed
