LifeRealistic Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 I am sure there are some people who might think I am crazy for saying this; but I think that might be why no one ever talks about it - because I can not be the only one expericing this. Have you ever received communion and felt tingles running through your whole body? (and I am not here to debate if you believe in transubstantiation, or not) Has anyone else felt ever felt this presence?
bluetuesday Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 i have, on a couple of rare occasions, felt a tingly sensation in the centre of my forehead while praying. the sensation has also been accompanied by a picture in my mind of the middle of my forehead being connected to 'something' above me via a shimmering thread.
Nicholas Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Yes, I have. I'm fairly certain that it's in my head though.
Tangerina Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 I get that at great rock concerts..... REM, David Bowie, Patti Smith, Paul McCartney....
Author LifeRealistic Posted December 28, 2005 Author Posted December 28, 2005 Blue Tuesday, I used to see shapes floating on " threads" when I was little ; my dad told me that was my mind learning more and more ; expanding. Can you tell me more about these threads for you....

Can you tell me more about these threads for you.... i wish i could, but what i told you is all there is. a tingly sensation and an image in my mind of a shimmering thread connecting me to something. i suspect it's my brain conjouring the sensation and the image but that doesn't lessen what is a delightful experience for me.
Becoming Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 I know what you're talking about, LR. It's wonderful but rare for me. I sometimes think it must be like being overshadowed by the Holy Spirit. I've heard people talk about this happening in prayer and during believer's baptism as well.
