"At its limits, empathy can shade into what is close to - if not identical with - telepathy."

~ Dr. Rhea A. White, parapsychologist

The Tao of Now: Entangled, Empathic, Engaged, Oh My!

At my local market, the couple in line ahead of me was buying dinner and dessert. As he scanned their ice cream, the cashier said, "You know that's non-dairy, right?" The fellow exclaimed, "Oh!" and dashed off to exchange it.

I commended the cashier on really knowing his customers. He replied, "I don't know them." I asked, "Then why did you mention the ice cream?"

He shrugged. "I just felt it."

This is a small, significant example of what's happening everywhere now. We're becoming more attuned, more telepathic, more aware of each other, and acting on these inner insights.

"I feel you"

I remember the first time someone said, "I feel you" to me. Accustomed to hearing, "I know what you mean," or similar expressions of empathy, I was touched by this way of reaching deeper: to actually feel what someone else was feeling. At the time, I didn't yet realize it was a common Gen Z expression; I thought he was simply saying this to me in the moment. And it felt good.

Feeling into what another is feeling is the keynote of our evolving times and selves.

In the 1990s, a prescient film, Powder, made a huge impact on me. Deep in the throes of my awakening, I identified with its message about the power of empathy/telepathy and our interconnectedness, even in the face of feral prejudice.

Powder is an extraordinary teen with a genius IQ and an unusual genetic condition; he's pure love and energy expressed in human form. But the close-minded community where he lives can't handle who and what he is, and attempts to destroy him.

This may have some historical overtones.

A strange planet

Another brilliant (and humorous) film of the same vintage, which I've referenced in this newsletter several times, is The Green Beautiful (in French, La Belle Verte, with subtitles).

The people of a peaceful distant planet, who have mastered telepathy and interstellar travel, send a messenger to Earth to see how we've progressed since the last covert visit 200 years ago. The answer: not for the better!

Seeing our "normal" behaviors from an alien perspective - and observing how Mila's telepathic influence is able to radically shift every person with whom she interacts - is a powerful reminder of the possibility of instant and total change.

It's as refreshing as a cold plunge.

Entangled with the All

In her latest newsletter, Aluna Joy writes about quantum entanglement: particles that are affected by each other even at a great distance. If we are made of stardust, as astronomer Carl Sagan posited, then we are quantum-entangled with the cosmos to the most intimate degree.

Thirty years ago, I was discovering that separation is an illusion. This was the gift of my awakening journey. Such awareness is now arriving for us all.
