Right. Also it's the deeper faculties, those in the so-called roots of mind, which are very often overlooked for the same reasons. It's just so conceptually challenging to use the part of mind which facilitates our travel through the illusion to tune into the outrageous power of the deepest love....or the deepest pain (ultimately due to love), for that matter.
To use a negative example, a person can feel so deeply that they are unreasonably out of tune with their true being that they can cause a poltergeist effect. I'm thinking in particular of Matthew Manning, a British psychic and healer who caused poltergeists beginning around puberty, but found they went away for a time if he fell into automatic writing and allowed his psychic abilities--of which he was wholly unaware theretofore--to come forward.
In a positive sense, such profound alignments of inner feeling can produce various positive effects. Ra calls this sort of alignment of being "polarisation." (Also, "grabbing the needle," as it were {of the compass.}) But as you typed above, it is very hard to hold space for such levels of the deep mind with the illusion-oriented portions of the mind. It's much easier to just walk right past them as if they have no essence at all than to bravely acknowledge the veracity of their capacity, if you will.
