Basically, as we were sailing in a light wind, someone I knew a little, who was crewing in another boat, laughed. At that moment, a phrase from a book written by Richard Bach (possibly "Illusions"?), who also wrote Jonathon Livingston Seagull, came to mind. The phrase was, more or less, that we are the otters of the Universe - fun loving, playing creatures. As the phrase was comprehended by me, my eyes rolled up into my head, leaving only the whites showing, and I became aware of what I was led to believe was the soul of everyone in the boats - which I perceived as a large sphere of light around six feet (say ... two metres) in diameter.
Nowadays, I would probably describe this as having become aware of everyone at the level of their Soul Star chakra.
Speaking of nowadays, something I have started doing recently, as part of my meditation, is becoming aware of the interactions between people at levels other than physical/astral.
Quite a few people are aware of what is going on in terms of the motivations of people (e.g., "he/she/ze is a go-getter and climber in the workplace"), but I have started looking at a "deeper" (higher frequency) level, and seeing things like ... person X is trying to overcome some insecurities which show on the lower left bound of their Soul, or person Y is learning how to be successful at manifesting/developing something good in this world, and so on.
What I am finding is that this gives me a more meaningful and relevant way of interacting with other people. I find that that, in turn, leads to a perception of souls working together with the energy of that level of reality to create (or change?) things.
It is also a useful reminder that ultimately our primary stream of consciousness will exist on a level which is basically just us and energy.
Something to contemplate :)
Love, light, hugs and blessings
