Looking for Self, eye fluttering, and twitching was created by orasis
Edit: I meant "eye fluttering", not "I fluttering"
Hey guys. It seems like whenever I go looking for Self in this moment I immediately get a lot of eye fluttering, head & body twitching, and uncomfortable head pressure and if I allow myself to really go into it, it is an absolutely bizarre experience. Is this related to the 8th Jhana? I find it interesting that this is a totally different reaction then when I ask "Who am I?" which just merges my attention with the center of my head. Looking for Self in the moment and asking "Who am I?" would seem to be related, but phenomenologically they couldn't be more different.
I would also greatly appreciate it if some advanced yogis could check out the last three entries of my journal and give a little guidance.
