NHL blogger and Aurora victim, first escaped Toronto shooting.
This blogger wrote, “I can’t get this odd feeling out of my chest. This empty, almost sickening feeling won’t go away. I noticed this feeling when I was in the Eaton Center in Toronto just seconds before someone opened fire in the food court. An odd feeling which led me to go outside and unknowingly out of harm’s way. It’s hard for me to wrap my mind around how a weird feeling saved me from being in the middle of a deadly shooting.”
This is something I have always wondered about, if people have some premonition that there was going to be some dangerous situation just before it happened. There is scientific evidence that people around the world were aware of 9/11 minutes before the first planes hit the World Trade Center. It is like the Cosmic Consciousness know everything before it happens.
Now the challenge is to become sensitive enough to be aware of this when it is happening and both able and willing to act on that sensitivity. I suspect that there will be a lot of false starts before one gets it down.
Trusting intuition is a hard thing to do at first, but with practice we can improve the quality of our perceptions and this can greatly enhance both our safety or health and the quality of our life experience. It is my experience that meditation is the practice of listening to our subtle intuitions, so meditation enhances our ability to be aware of subtle indicates that danger is upon us.
I feel sad for the skeptics out there that are closed to all the benefits that intuition has to offer us. I am not saying that all skeptics are closed to these ideas, only that there are some that refuse to even consider that we can know about events like this shooting before they actually happen.
