However,as Dolores also notes, present-day (and past) humans seem to cultivate or experience the emotion of fear more than any other intelligent lifeforms do.

To understand what emotions are, we need not just to distinguish them from thoughts but also from intuition and sensation. That's because the word "feelings" can cover all three.

My understanding is that our intuition gives us intuitive feelings, but these are quite separate from emotional feelings. Indeed, I consider a very big part of spiritual liberation is learning how to clearly distinguish between the two -- and then to live by your intuitive feelings. Getting in touch with and developing your intuition seems closely connected with mastering meditation, and also with mastering detachment.

Emotions, as I use the term, are a very important part of our survival mechanism. They basically tell us whether to avoid or accept. They come from the electromagnetic field around our body, which stores or accesses all our memories.

Going back to "feelings", though, we experience a feeling about X whenever we experience X as not separate from us, but still not identical to us. And we experience a thought about X whenever we view or consider or experience X as separate from us and disconnected from us.


"Going back to "feelings", though, we experience a feeling about X whenever we experience X as not separate from us, but still not identical to us. And we experience a thought about X whenever we view or consider or experience X as separate from us and disconnected from us. " This is mind boggling

"My telepathic direct contacts/experiences with ETs certainly suggest the same" - can you elaborate a bit?
