I asked my 3 children as well. Two of them visualize routinely and didn’t realize others couldn’t just as myself. One could not visualize. She realize this when she was three and was asked to count sheep to go to sleep. She was very upset she could not see the sheep. I postulate that all OPs cannot visualize. But, perhaps some souled individuals do not as well. Perhaps it’s not an either/or. My daughter who cannot visualize is one of the most empathetic people I’ve ever met in my life. I find it hard to believe she does not have a soul.
Before you go postulating, it would be good if you familiarized yourself with the work of Dr. Russell Hurlburt whose work I used as a reference for my questions and follow ups. We did a MindMatters show on YouTube not long ago going over some of his seven Psychology Today articles from 2011 and I gave some extra information taken from his book 'Investigating Pristine Inner Experience' where he discusses his work investigating people's inner experiences.
We had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Hurlburt recently so we'll also have a new show up soon which goes over some of the questions asked during the session and in this thread. Keep an eye on the thread so you know when the latest episode drops. Better yet, subscribe to the channel and ring the bell so you're updated when it drops.
