You used the words 'mindset' and 'undercurrent' to describe these sensations. Do the sensations occur visually taking space and having orientations? If you think of trigger concepts sequentially do the colors align to form a spacial sequence. Is there any way a normal person can understand what you 'see'? Anyone here who can add something on this because its a fascinating aspect of our consciousness. |

Next, imagine a bicycle. Now imagine an orange. Now imagine a vest. Now imagine a bicycle. Question: Was there any sort of "spatial sequence" or alignment thereupon? Try that sequence again, but imagine them along some "orientation" or "position".
Now, imagine a bicycle three meters behind you.
See what I mean? This is exactly how synesthesia happens for me. Most of the time, the "sensation" is just there. Formless, positionless, orientationless, in the "cyberspace" of my consciousness. It's possible to give the synesthesia "orientation" or "position", but most of the time it occurs to me wherever its synesthetic counterpart occurs, usually with the same "position" in my internal operating "cyberspace". This is what I meant earlier when I said something like "when it's there, it's just there, but if it were on my left hand, it would be on my left hand"...
I hope this makes sense for you. If it does not, feel free to ask me whatever will help you understand, or give me directions for how to explain it like I did.
