Empathic or Intentionally Multi-dimensionally Connected?
by bj King (USA)

At birth, we have a tendency to be energetically like little amoebas. We have unstructured borders. We move our energy fields in and around the energy fields of other people in order to check out how they are feeling. We do this instinctively in order to know how to get what we want, in order to be safe, or in order to understand that which is around us.

As we grow older, some people learn other methods of defense, understanding verbally, or methods of getting information. Some people do not learn other methods and continue to be empathetic, being sponge like in soaking up energy, information and emotions from other people.

These people find it very difficult to understand where they stop and another person begins. They have a tendency to allow their boundaries to be invaded by other people. They do not understand the concept of personal boundaries.

When a person is empathetic, it is difficult for them to have a good self image that is not controlled by the thoughts of other people about them. They do not have a clear impression of selfhood and "others." This gift of being able to read other people empathetically, becomes more of a curse than a gift.

It is a time to give up being empathetic and to rather get information directly with their Oversoul. In being empathetic, we are picking up information from others and carrying it for them, or acting it out for them, unconsciously. It is difficult to differentiate between what are our feelings and emotions and the emotions of others. Being empathetic causes many people to be overweight and to be excessively emotional.

We can cease to practice being unconsciously empathetic by deliberately grounding ourselves each morning, by installing intentional balloons of cushion energy around ourselves, and by having an intention to communicate telepathically rather than empathically with the Over-souls of those we encounter.
