KNOCKED OUT

Pats fans just saw the immediate results of a concussion: a wobbly head and “woozy“ unsteady walk. 

A commentator said, “[after a few minutes, you] get a little of your awareness back”. 

Apparently, when you get a concussion from a whack on the noggin, the “outer”, “energetically densest”, “thinking”, conscious aspect of your invisible mind gets “knocked out of gear” or interrupted – knocking your otherwise sub-conscious mind into full awareness. 

I’ve not had a concussion (might explain a lot), but it sounds like getting the wind knocked out of your lungs.

In that moment of instantaneous internal shock – an instant that feels suspended and more and more protracted – all you’re aware of is your inability to draw breath. 

You slowly regain a clearer sense or state of awareness (i.e., your conscious, thinking mind “catches again”, or comes back into awareness) as the distress is either relieved – or literally renders you unconscious. 

Tough way to experience your sub-conscious mind up close and personal. I prefer meditation.
