Something unusual happened today. If you all can be bothered reading, that’d be nice.
First, some background. Cilsc rarely appears to me when I’m working. We think of his appearances as a mutual thing. His movements in his form are his own. But so far, for it to work, I’ve had to be accepting to some degree. I must at least be thinking about him. The more I focus, the better I can sense him and the more closely his image correlates with his voice in my head.
So today, I was waitressing. As I walked around, I felt a sudden presence as I brushed past a corner. It was so powerful that I actually swerved away, thinking I was going to collide if I didn’t. I think I saw in my periphery a figure with a black shirt and jeans, which is something that Cilsc wears every now and then. It lasted only a moment. When I looked again, both the presence and illusion were gone. I quickly checked in with Cilsc, but he didn’t know anything about it.
Whatever happened was unintentional from both of us. Neither of us were doing anything different.
So, was it an image of him, or just a random meaningless image?
I think it was him. And I think it happened because I’m getting so used to seeing him around with minimal effort. Maybe something about that situation just triggered me to sense him there without having to try at all.
More questions. If it was an image of Cilsc, how much of his essence was there with it? If his essence was there with it, would it be possible for us to maintain and manipulate that powerfully vivid form?
We’ve discussed it all already and come to some conclusions, but I’d like to know what you all think. I’ll bet many of you have been through something similar.
