Eye contact

Post by Renata »

Have you ever stared at your eyes in the mirror for an extended period of time? Or sat & stared into someone elses eyes? It's almost a power of energy inertia being exerted at times goes by. It's very hard to explain.

What exactly are we using where we stare into someone's eyes, our mind or do we use our eyesight to see? Light bounces off of surfaces & refacts/reflects into the eyes & that's how we see. What happens then when we reflect/refract light eye to eye with direct non stop eye contact?

There are some people that can't look me in the eye for too long, I've noticed this many times. I like making eye contact with people to see the outcome. It might seem weird but I feel I can detect things that I'm looking for or see things that aren't so apparent about someone.

Eyes are pretty powerful; I could intimidate you, make you uncomfortable, seduce you, romaticise, show compassion, show hate, show fear.

The most I have ever been intimidated by a stare down is when I went to the ZOO and I had a stare down with a lion and the end outcome made me feel like I was a big pork chop to be served for Din Din. :shock:

A big cat can give you a stare down that is very intimidating.

Things like a sixth sense (im not referring to the movie). Such as when you "feel" as though as someone is watching you.

Other times you may turn around and actually notice the stranger watching you from a distance.

How does that happen? Someone that is watching you, not right in front but behind you and you "sensed" it?

In metaphysics, they might say that we are dectecting the
"life force or energy" of another living creature.

In religious circles they say that all living creatures are linked to the holy spirit and can therefore feel when they are near us.
