One thing that reading your repsonses has led me to consider is that I might be expecting something new when really this is all simply natural. What I mean is, long before evr even hearing about OBE's I've thought it was kind of cool how if you thought about a single body part, it was almost as if everything else wasn't there. Almost as if if you concentrated on one body part, it was like you could feel that body part simply "being." Not feel it touching or doing anything, but be aware of the fact that it is simply "there." Now don't think "What an idiot! That's the whole thing! That's what he thinks he's having trouble doing!" I don't get hardly any sensation at all. I suppose I get what you might call a light tingling, but that's it. Also, the reason that I always assumed this wasn't quite it, is because I don't get that feeling by doing anything Robert describes. I get it just by thinking. Just by thinking about my hand.
As much as I'd like this to be the case, I can't be right can I. Because I still can't recall any type of feelings. Like you must know by now, I can't re-create the feeling of being stroked. So I'm still not doing it right, I still am not using tactile imaging.
Man this is frustrating. It must be for the readers too, and I apologize. I can "sense" my hand, but I can't do any of Bruce's stuff with it, and don't even think I'm sensing it properly anyway.
