If you’ve noticed, a lot is changing right now on the level of sensations, and people too, for that matter. And although from the point of view of facts, physical changes might not be visible, on the level of sensations, a lot has shifted.
I, for example, have lost the difference between living and non-living. Here’s a bottle — it’s dead, plastic or glass, and a plant is alive. For a long time now, I’ve had no difference between plastic flowers and real ones. I read the energy from them the same way.
On the other hand, there are natural places, but you understand that it’s dead for you, there’s no energy there at all. True, all of this is very individual and depends on your level of interaction with the energy of a particular space.
Read on to learn how the energy in natural places like mountains and the sea affects a person, and how to understand if a place is “alive” or “dead” for you from an energy perspective.
How natural places (mountains, sea) affect a person
When you try to ground yourself on a mountain peak for the first time, the mind stumbles and categorically refuses to understand how that works. Three kilometers down, for it, that’s just too much.
So, you go there, and because of this, the connection weakens; most importantly, there’s no link to your own experience, your past.
They say that when you need to download the future, any trip to the mountains helps. Not because you experience some serious transformations there, but simply because the energy is like that. There, the past is essentially cut off; you are in the “here and now,” and there’s a download of all the potentials and possibilities that lie before you. A huge choice of different paths opens up.
This happens because at high altitudes, the connection to the matrix grid is lost.

Sensations from encountering Elbrus
Last year, we ended up at Elbrus. It was such an unusual sensation. At first, you’re driving, and some mountain or hill appears. You’re about 100-150 kilometers away, and suddenly it rises up before you.
The feeling is that there is something, and from it, waves of energy radiate out in concentric circles. And there, a completely different flow comes from the earth, tied to that one specific place. Wherever you are there, it all radiates out concentrically.
Moreover, you’d think distance should matter: the greater the distance, the less you feel it. But no. The most interesting thing is, when we ended up right in front of this mountain, there are no such sensations there; up close, it doesn’t work.
A similar phenomenon occurs when you’re driving to the sea; it appears on the horizon, and you’re already feeling its pull: There it is, there it is! Compared to when you’ve actually reached it, especially if the place is dead.
I haven’t seen many places where the water in the seas is alive. I’m not talking about the creatures that inhabit it. There are places where sewage is discharged, and there are no creatures at all; that’s not the point, it’s about the feeling.
It can be alive for you, or it can be not; you feel nothing there. Or vice versa: some puddle, and the feeling is colossal. I’m looking at the Moscow River; everyone says you can’t swim in it. I look at it, the sparks are so alive; for me, this place is alive.
Maybe the river itself is dead, but the water that flows through it is alive.
How to Determine a “Living” Place or a “Dead” One
It’s different for everyone. You arrive and you either feel a sense of unity or you don’t, the place either hits you or it doesn’t.
Every place has an energetic and vibrational field. If you resonate with it, you feel amazing there; if you don’t resonate with it, it feels dead to you.
What’s more, your feelings can change over time. You change, you transform, your vibrational frequency changes, and you start resonating with different places.
Regarding Elbrus. Here’s the thing: you’re driving, you see it on the horizon, and then you turn off the main highway and enter the Elbrus region. There were several incredible spots there, with low mountains, but they hit you so hard vibrationally and energetically (at least for me).
I adore some places that I return to again and again, because there you feel like you haven’t just increased in size — like a giant colossus, powerful, strong — you feel a connection of yourself with yourself, only with some more advanced versions of yourself. And I caught that feeling in several places along the way there.
But these are my personal feelings, although sometimes they do match what’s really there.
I was in Jerusalem once — at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. From a religious standpoint, so many people pour so much into that place, but my perception of those iconic sites was completely, not just unique, but going against everything that’s commonly known.
I noticed for the first time that so much is said about it, and so much feeling is supposedly invested in it, and the religious egregore is working, but the power there is in completely different places. I don’t want to offend anyone’s religious feelings or the nation of people themselves, so I only shared the specifics with one person.
It’s the same with the Egyptian Pyramids. To catch those feelings there, you need to have many incarnations from the time of Egypt’s golden age. If your past life memory is blocked, if that experience has no meaning for your current self, then you won’t have any feelings there at all.
Each of you has incarnated in Atlantis, in Lemuria, but for some, the very word “Lemuria” gives them chills, like it does for me, while Atlantis does nothing at all, and for others, it’s the complete opposite reaction.
So everything is individual.

Seek Novelty in Everything
The energy of natural places is changing right now. If you never felt anything in a particular place before, your feelings might change now.
But when your mind is narrow, you can’t perceive things from scratch. I call this mind-mapping, and we’ve even collected facts about this before.
When a territory is truly unexplored, and you move through it for the first time, your mind is essentially mapping these places. And the more often you walk through them, the less worthy of attention they become. The territory goes from unknown and unexplored to known, meaning you can stop paying attention to it.
The mind filters out everything new; the eye perceives everything, but the mind filters it, and not much reaches your consciousness in the end. We see, but we don’t pay attention to many things.
So when you’re in a dynamic and looking at something, it’s hard to get rid of the bias: things were better before, the grass was greener in youth, the sun was yellower, etc., because your perspective is narrow.
When you go somewhere for the first time, into novelty, you catch something fresh. But then it’s very difficult to step beyond the boundaries of the map you’ve already drawn.
That’s why the ability to walk with wide-open eyes in everyday, mundane things is valuable—to pay attention to what’s new here, what new sensations I’m feeling, not seeking confirmation through sight or hearing, but specifically through sensation.
Focusing on sensations has many side effects, for example, when a person completely loses the urge to communicate with people, interact, or doesn’t feel like talking.
Words right now don’t carry a semantic load; everything is transmitted through sensations, through feeling. The main interaction happens precisely at the level of sensations, at the level of the flow of energy and vibrations, and words aren’t needed here.
