I apologize for putting this here and do acknowledge this thread doesn't belong here but for the sake of receiving more responses I would like to ask that you leave this here just for a little while if that's okay.

So for over a few months during meditation or what I call 'lucid-dreaming' because I'm awake and in higher consciousness, I always suddenly feel a burning sensation on my left palm while I'm concentrating on higher-awareness or emptiness. It doesn't happen in my right hand unless I consciously focus on it and it almost feels like there's a fireball hovering over my left palm.

I've tried to rule out medical reasons and nothing just seems to add up.

Peripheral Neuropathy is what you are experiencing.

The only mysterious thing about it is finding out what medical condition is causing it.

I responded to your other thread. This is a symptom that can have a very large number of causes. Unless you've had extensive medical testing and consulted a neurologist, had and MRI etc, then there is no way that you ruled out a medical cause. Don't rely on WebMD or some other site to rule out illness. It can be a matter of life and death to self diagnose, and is extremely foolish.

I've seen several people on LL with common symptoms that they attribute to a spiritual cause. One even had classic symptoms that can lead to blindness if not treated, but they thought they were seeing angels. I'm not saying that angels don't exist, but these symptoms must be examined by a professional. The person I'm referring to could have completely gone blind from retinal detachment, while thinking angels are sending them messages through flashing lights in their peripheral vision. They had textbook symptoms of a retinal tear, and it's extremely naive to assume there is a spiritual meaning before ruling out a known medical condition.

I've had the same tingling/burning pains in my hands, peripheral neuropathy, caused by an autoimmune disorder. This burning feeling is not a rare symptom, it's actually quite common and has many different causes.

Thank you.

To be honest I do feel a lot of head pain. Usually during meditation.

It's just bizzare. Does being in that sort of awareness really cause part of the brain to tear?

-edit-

I just looked up what it was. I think it's because I work a lot with my hands. Wow.

I usually operate the same way but there was just something off about it.

Like if I think too much or am too deep in thought my head starts to hurt and I know it's because I'm focusing too hard.

I'm thinking the same ... Was just curious as to what it could have been. I do accept peripheral neurotherapy to be it though and do take Bluejay's advice to further examine what's causing it.

These burning sensations are telling you that something is amiss. The fact that these feelings are stronger while mediating is because your mind/body are more in tune to receiving messages in a meditative state.

It's always important to rule out any medical condition first. Our bodies send us messages when something is not right, and it usually starts out as subtle signals. It's the body's way of saying that something is not right. Just like a car that starts making a noise when something is in need of repair. It starts out small, and if it's ignored then it can lead to a complete breakdown.

Years ago I heard the phrase "You are the first to know when something is not right with your body" and I literally felt a shockwave of doom go through me. I was not having any major symptoms at the time, but my body already knew. It took months before my mind actually started to suspect something was wrong, meanwhile my health deteriorated. The moral of the story is to pay attention to the signals your body is sending you.

Thank you for this Bluejay. This really helped open my eyes to what I need to be more aware of.

Kudos.

However, I would not jump to the conclusion that it's not related to the meditation and where you went with it. It could be that a sacred symbol, or something else, was burnt into your palm in another plane of existence where you went/were taken. My friend and I just taught an Angelic Reiki class this weekend and she had to draw one of the symbols and imagine it being drawn into the crown chakra of the students, as part of the attunement. She told all of us that after she did this, she felt the symbol burnt into the palm of that hand she had used to do so. It was on fire, she said. I know her to be a powerful spiritual person with clairsentience and clairvoyance, and I am open minded, so I don't doubt her.

Who's to say that what's happening with you is not in the same vein?

There's more to spirituality and to our human lives than a lot of people (including some on this forum) even imagine. And many people are going through ascension these past few years, feeling all sorts of things they never felt before.
