I think this is certainly a pre-requisite. In my case it was much the same, I guess I burst my own consensus-reality bubble by focusing for several weeks in a row on (what was to me) a very real possibility of a huge UFO sighting, which had been predicted. During that time that was about all I could think about. Yup, I think that did the trick!
Thanks for digging up those relevant quotes as well. They give a great context for our discussion.

Thank you unity... that is a beautiful prose. I've often considered infinity, and of course failed to consider it fully each time. Typically I will actually feel a brief instant of panic right before I stop trying. I think that's sort of a fail safe being activated in our brains- they are after all wired through evolution to deal with more transient things that happen in our day to day lives. I guess that's what makes infinity so darned fascinating to us... we reach out for that which is shrouded in mystery. It is our nature as deep down we are the creator reaching for further experience and understanding.
Yours humbly,
