When we’re overwhelmed by sensitivity, it helps to think of ourselves as porous. If energy can enter our field, it can also move through it, and keep going into the universe. Instead of catching and holding feelings, let them move right through. They don’t belong to us and we do not need them. Let them move on out, into the infinite sky.

Another type of sensitivity is heightened vision, smell, taste, touch, and sound. A classical scripture about kundalini describes how the senses can become so acute we might see ants crawling up a tree many yards away. Some people become aware of internal sounds, such as bees buzzing, kettledrums pounding, or bells ringing. Some hear chanting in a foreign language or the toning of ohm, which according to Vedanta is the sound of the universe. Vedanta describes this heightened sensual sensitivity as a great intimacy with everything that follows deep realization experiences. Here is Joelle’s experience.

My senses were so enhanced I would stay in my room and touch the wall, fascinated by the subtle texture, for the whole evening. An hour would pass like ten minutes in the shower, where I could see every drop of water. I could stare at my hand, a blade of grass, or a candle, and be totally captivated. Listening to the wind blow the leaves outside my window was mesmerizing. I would see the same energy in everything: thousands of strands of light moving through living things and inanimate objects. The connectedness I feel in this state is profound, and also a little scary. When my ego kicks in, I feel almost too present, like I can’t step back and find perspective on my experience. There is so much beauty and love in this state, but also fear.
