In my pre-belief days I was a bit of a felon. I had learned that so long as one was smart enough about it then one could get away with just about anything. And I did get away with it. Doing the things I did never caused me much in the way of moral turmoil.
On occasion I would find myself considering embarking or about to actually embark on a particular course of action and would get the sense that I was being observed. Not by security personnel or people or the like. But as if a personal entity was observing. I didn't get a notion that 'it' was telling me not to do it - the observation was passive.
But the fact of being observed thus would cause a bit of unease about what it was I was intending to do. And sometimes I aborted the mission.
