i don't wish to debate the accuracy of your experience , however i will challenge it a bit - perhaps all psychotics believe they are on a higher plane of thinking , this does not imply that all those on a higher plane of thinking are psychotics

What is this higher plane you’re talking about?

Don’t know about the parent, but in my experience it was sort of an “extreme introspection”, any thought you have is immediately scrutinized “why did I think about this, is this the right thing to say in this context, what are the implications”. Then of course the thought about thought is also introspected, leading into a spiral of thought that occasionally gets “popped” as a stack. The memory works in a very weird manner where you almost immediately forget a lot of context and then get reminded of it in one go when you “pop” a level.

It is quite hard to imagine, I think, and even myself I can only explain the idea of it but not how it actually felt.

I wouldn’t say this was anything spiritual, rather than the thinking stopped working as a stream of thought but more like a graph traversal.

Astral, Spiritual plane.

The same place that Psychonauts try to reach out too.

Fair point, but unless I’m misunderstanding something, that same argument could be applied to your original statement.

i dont think either of us properly understood the other , perhaps we shall finish this discussion properly another time , all the best until then
