Feelings - people may doubt their sensory organs but not what they experience
Perhaps the only thing that people cannot deny is the experience of suffering or joy. They may doubt what they see, what they hear or what they touch, but there is never any doubt about the feelings they experience. Our inner sensations enable us to touch the heart of things, to taste them and live them. So many people are unmoved by what they see. They may behold one of the most beautiful sights in nature—the sunrise—and yet they do not feel a thing. So what is the point of watching it in that case? What good will it do you to see heaven opening before your eyes, if that splendour leaves you unaffected? Whereas if you can feel heaven, it is as if heaven were within you, and you do not even need to see it. Understand this clearly: all that we see, touch and imagine to be near at hand is in fact far away. Only what we feel is actually close to us. That is why true clairvoyance is a matter of deep inner feeling, and not a vision of something outside ourselves.
