Feeling of being watched

[ada]

Hello,
I wish to speak of a subject using only spirituality if possible, I do not wish upon "logic". So please do not suggest illness or any disorder of a kind.

If you have ever had this feeling of being watched, you know what I speak of. Usually we calm ourselves by defining that feeling as paranoia.
But then again, I ask myself why? Why is it that I experience something that I have not given thought to at this particular moment. Why does this unexplained force attracts my attention using no senses what so ever to the point where I turn my head to look if there's anyone/anything at all?

I can tell, I am being watched. By whatever being that it is, I do not know how to define it's reason thus life feels as a "test" a "mission".
How should it be addressed? Does it posses any significant importance at all? Or is it just our loved ones that watch us progress in this sub-reality?
By the time I typed all this I completely forgot what was my goal in first place. So please share your thoughts if you find interest in this manner.

I too feel like I have no privacy. Because our guides are around us all the time. But it doesn't bother me. My guardian angel can be with me, whatever the circumstance.

I definitely feel interested in the matter. I satisfied that interest through research (seeking). Most of that satisfaction was through applying my own philosophy and looking at the work of Dean Radin through the lens of the LOO.

One of the phenomenon he tackles specifically is 'the feeling of being watched'. He only seeks to scientifically expose that there is such an effect and other similar effects, and not the 'why' there is such an effect, but you can still draw your own spiritual (metaphysical) conclusions from there.

My personal opinion on this specifically is sometimes it really is your imagination that someone is watching you, and other times it is NOT your imagination. That would extend to 'other entities' watching us, not just people incarnate in 3D here with us. Specifically, I think that loved ones who are not incarnate watch you sometimes, although I suspect they make their presence known purposefully.

If you're interested in exploring that further, I would recommend reading The Conscious Universe by Dean Radin.

Thank you Parsons, this information will be of great use to me.

I believe disincarnated entities to work with someone need some kind of link, a connection, a distortion. This is spoken in religions and there are various ways to clear these links. I mainly think it is a matter of faith in a belief system, a ritual of some sort.

So how it feels like probably tells what it is. You can have had multiple contacts, with some of different intents.

There is ultimately no separation. Just resonance. So what you resonate with is mainly personal to yourself just as your openness to it.

Can you feel the outside presence inside of you anywhere? Is there any block inside that is preventing you from perceiving it as it is and neutrally merging awareness?

I read this today:
Listen deeply underneath any thoughts,  any feeling, until you hear the sound of silence. You will become aware of a "sound" that is always there. This is a constant infinite "sound of silence" that is very soothing and always in the background.

Your query also reminds me of of a chapter in the Seth channeling - The individual and the nature of mass events , where he speaks of Paranoia:

https://books.google.com/books?id=e_I1GV-rY1gC&pg=PT233&lpg...

[im_not_me]

I always feel like I'm being watched. If not by me (after death looking back on-self), By another. Nonetheless, other.

This is somewhat the closest to what I was doing that time. For a brief moment my senses were so sharp I could hear the tiniest bubble noise the bottle from the kitchen would make. I do not know what kind of sense it is that was sharpened to allow me to notice that I am being watched, but it felt as if I created a "field" around myself that allowed me to feel this presence.
Something else happened to me in this process, I'm not entirely sure what. But everything synchronized to the tiniest so that I would end up here once again.

I've had this kind of experience many times. Seems like you unveiled your awareness to be aware of your methaphysical surroundings. Sharpened your six sense.

How did you react to the prrsence? How have you tried to interact with it? Have you tried to clear your space like it was suggested in the other thread, and if so what was your experience with it?

The only thing I did was acknowledging. I have not tried to interact.
Could you explain what you mean by clear my space? I do not seem to remember this suggestion.

[BlatzAdict]

what if you were being watched all the time, would it really matter? your spirit guides watch over you all the time,

what is the difference if some lower vibrational entity comes along and watches too? Like attracts like, and I suppose privacy is an illusion if all thoughts ideas and actions are recorded somewhere.

you can look at that as a detriment to you, or as a value. How do you decide to encode your reality? What meaning do you instill into it's very fabric?

What took you then, what moved you? What carried you with the winds of joy and love in a state of allowing. What did you do to anchor it?

Is whatever this is really separate? I just remind myself that all is one. Whatever this is is a reflection of an aspect of me, and I to it.

Always my favorite quote "Let us for a moment consider thought. What is it, my friends, to take thought? Took you then thought today? What thoughts did you think today? What thoughts were part of the original thought today? In how many of your thoughts did the creation abide? Was love contained? And was service freely given? You are not part of a material universe. You are part of a thought. You are dancing in a ballroom in which there is no material. You are dancing thoughts. You move your body, your mind, and your spirit in somewhat eccentric patterns for you have not completely grasped the concept that you are part of the original thought. "

This is a daily meditation of contemplation for me.

In another thread you were advised to try a banishing ritual which serve this purpose.

Disincarnated entities cannot have their presence here without something that allows them to, clearing your field and space is a ritual to break these links that were made. It banishes undisited presences but does not prevent you from restoring what had allowed them to first connect with you.

I see.
I received aid from one of the forum members regarding this issue. The evil that was connected by my STS is no more.
This sensation is only the feeling of being watched, not the same as a presence being in a room with me.

Our guides are watching and waiting for us to invoke them so that they can manifest on the physical plane without abridging our free will. Ask for their help and support with love and dedication to be of service and they will happily provide.

Do I speak with voice, a prayer or by thought while meditating?

[Jade]

Whichever you feel comes when you start at the heart. Initiate contact there, if possible, and see what feels right. Any and all of the above will work, it's just a matter of your own preference.

Do you meditate every day, or try to? This is an important path to opening up the "two-way street" communication with our guides, especially the Higher Self. So if you haven't yet begun with meditation in earnest, start there, and reach out. But I think even prayers "on the fly" get heard as well. So, all ways work, meditation is just the most important tool to utilize.

Be aware, though, both types of entities are waiting. The more purely and regularly you ask for your "positive" guides, the more they will help manifest for you. If you ask for help with a negative act, you will get guides of a different kind. I mostly just try to pray/ask for help in being service to others, and radiating the creator to others in my daily existence, and offer an opening in my daily meditation for my guides to help facilitate that. Or, for my prayers to be, "for the outcome to be for the highest good of all". Things like this keep the link at a high vibration without worrying about judging your own actions as good/bad.

That was beautiful, thank you.

Lately I meditate a bit less than usual, I am not entirely sure why. I kind of feel like I got lost somewhere along the way.
Perhaps this has to do with those who surround my everyday life, they do not partake in this kind of thought. Actually it's more of a taboo here. Sigh.

[Jade]

Meditation would be a given if we didn't set up "hurdles" for ourselves. I remember reading in a channeling once, not sure if it was Q'uo or someone else, that obviously, if we all lived in an idyllic rural setting without busy streets and sirens and seeing poverty all around us, that it would be a simple act to live in peace and harmony with the land. It's the act of overcoming the perceived hurdles that really carries weight. Each time you say, "others tell me I'm wrong, but I know in my heart I'm right" you are creating a powerful metaphysical charge. And also, those who see you do it and judge it as taboo, but see that you only gain positive benefits and not negative, will eventually lesson their negative judgement on such things and eventually, by acts like yours, bravely meditating in the face of ridicule, others will be more open to trying things as such that are wholly in their best interest.

This is just a feeling I have and I don't know if that can help but I think maybe you wish not to be alone. If there is a presence that is not you it must be accepted/desired if it is STO. STO entities surrounds us all the time waiting to serve. If a part of you wish for such things an STO entity may be of service by being your companion. You may interact with it if that can help you. STO entities only want to serve. That's if the STS entity you talked about is indeed gone. Maybe you can try contacting it to see what is it's purpose. It is there to love you? guide you? watch over you?

In the end that kind of contact with STO entities will end up being a mirror. What it wants and what you want should end up being one.

I'd like to take the opportunity to talk about mental illness because you mentioned it. I understand that your question would maybe attract people to tell you that you are crazy if you would have asked on another place where people aren't so open minded. I definitely don't think you are crazy. I think your relation to yourself about that is healthy. I think those people are doing a great disservice to the world and I'll tell you why.

You see I had a conversation with a friend a while ago about schizophrenia and since I have an uncle with this illness I felt like talking about it. My friend is studying to become social worker and I was telling him I don't think those people are crazy. He didn't understand and told me those people have a really big problem and they need meds to be normal. Of course I understand some people's disorders are so intense they cannot live normally without it. But what I think is wrong with that approach that the medical system has is that it creates barriers to that person. A lot of these people can have a normal life with a job and a familly. But from the moment you tell they are crazy and they believe it, they kind of merge with that idea and they really become crazy because they think they are. But what use is it for them to think they are crazy? How does that help them understand their situation. I think those people are just really sensitive and emotional and nobody can explain to them what's going on in their minds. They may even be in contact with higher consciousness without knowing it.

Let's say this ''guy'' is seeing someone standing next to him talking to him and other people do not see that. They instantly tell him he's just crazy and sees people that are not there because he's lonely and has imaginary friends. There will be a huge sensation a judgement within that person that will end up making him close himself to the world. I don't think that's a good way to help them. You see, I think that the things he sees are there or not is irrelevant because even though there is no nobody standing next to him, the thoughts within his mind are very real. Who are we to tell somebody that what he feels, think or see doesn't exist. Even if that is a projection of the mind of an emotional content that has been repressed, that thing, whatever it may be is very real. If nobody can help him understand himself then he thinks he's crazy. Moreover his feeling of helplessness and worthlessness can end up being a doorway to STS entities to mess up with him because it will make him sensitive, vulnerable and insecure. STS entities are just waiting for that.

Like I said earlier, this only causes barriers to this person. It puts him in a box and now he cannot get out of it. It becomes his reality. However I don't think this guy is less the creator than anybody else. His inner wold might even be more vivid than most people. I think that guy has the same potential to connect with the intelligent infinity like anyone else. And yet we measure his worthiness to a label. An idea. A thought. Just because of this only thought, he is chained to this disease. One thing is certain, the meds may calm him, but it doesn't come close to help him. He will not understand himself better and will not progress. It will only make him sleep. I think mental illness are like body illness. They are the result of how it is used. Except for genetic problems but then it becomes a choice of incarnation I suppose.

Your situation has nothing to do with mental illness but I just wanted to expand on the idea of labeling people with mental disease and it's effects.

In the end, don't think you are crazy. Don't let people tell you that. It only does more harm. Only when you see things with a clear and open mind can you start to understand yourself.

Thanks for sharing matrix_drumr.
In a lot of cases I hear that schizophrenics see negative entities that wish to harm them/those around. Is it plausible to say that the reason is what you described above?
If we were to teach this ill person in first place about love/light and light/love, they will be able to create contact with STO entities? I cannot imagine what a unique pathway that may be to the other world.

[Night Owl]

I think most of them are like completely open energies and those entities who only seek to enslave those underneath them will take every opporunity they can to cause negative energies to spread

There are a lot of possibilities.  The being watching you could be of any polarity, or not even polarized at all.  There are such things as lower astral "wildlife" for lack of better description.  Sometimes people experience hauntings by these forms.  Most of what people consider "demonic hauntings" are these lower astral wildlife (sort of like a hungry bear that smelled food in your house and somehow got inside).  Sometimes they are called "elementals", though I would more aptly apply that label to nature spirits.  They are 2nd density beings, but they can look like pretty much anything.  Just like we have animals in our world that are predators, who are a carnivores but not negatively polarized per se (yet are still doing negative things), there are lower astral forms that feed on fear because it what they resonate with, they are often just offshoots of negative 3rd density emotional energy that have gained a level of sentience.  There are also benign astral animals that feed on more positive energies like humor and joy.  So it's possible a being is deriving spiritual nourishment from some energy you give off.

Or it could be a guide, or a loved one, or even just a curious observer.  Hard to say exactly.  I can tell you that the more you pay attention to it, the more active its presence will become in your experience.  So if you want it go away, you have to find some way of ignoring it most of the time.  Attention increases its attachment to you for good or for worse.  This is why in hauntings they will do stuff to freak you out, even though it takes energy to do it, they are gambling that the amount of fear/food you release will be well worth the expenditure. And it captures your attention giving it even more leeway to interact with your personal reality.

This is my first time hearing of such astral animals. It reminds me of one time when I was young, I had a really bad nightmare and upon waking up I saw a fairly large cat staring at me with green glowing eyes. It did not move for a couple of seconds until running into the wall at immense speed and disappearing in silence.

[Aion]

I usually question anything that is watching me, or if it feels malicious just send it to the One and wish love and healing for it. I guess you could say I used to be watched, and I still am, but now there are fewer who are uninvited.
