Interesting stuff! Please do post about it when you get a chance, I'd love to hear more :)
Your "flipping like a fish out of water" experience totally reminds me of something that I'd normally see back in my pentecostal Christian days, they called it "being filled with the Holy Spirit" and often happened after group praying. I wouldn't be surprised if it was something similar to your experience, but Christians just called it something else.
ahaaa! well prior to that we had been singing hallelujah for half an hour.. with everyones hands on me..;-) holy spirit yes!
Ha! Well there you have it, that is essentially what would happen in a church that would lead to "being filled with the holy spirit". Based on my previous experience in church, side effects of "being filled with the holy spirit" can usually include "speaking in tongues", falling over, laughing hysterically, crying hysterically, shaking uncontrollably, feeling ecstatic, etc.
I'm glad to understand these things now from a more universal point of view, and not just in a limiting religious point of view anymore :)
nice! and yes indeeed.. ive also seen an entire church on the flooor .. maybe 100 people all laughing like crazy. // i was also filled with it and it did feel very very lovely!.. but as you say... it doesnt have to be linked directly to jesus or any religion..
Agreed :)
