ABSTRACT

Hindu and Christian religious traditions both recognise the possibility of subjectivity overflowing the boundaries of the self, uniting separate minds, and underpinning key moments of inspiration:

A yogi can lay hold of several thousand selves, and having obtained [their] power, he can walk the earth with all of them. 1

In the last days, God says, I will pour out my spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 2
