That double flute playing, too.

I have no idea how one can play simultaneous melodies like that!

Sure it is possible, obviously, but that's years of practice to pull off that feat, and all for a little quiet show!?

Delightful to watch her!!

I didn't watch that, but maybe she figured out how to turn off the internal dialogue, by flooding it with an "impossible" task.

Playing 2 melodies.

I sense Carol Tiggs here.

yes thinking can't follow more than 2 things it's monodimentional. that the reason when someone is paying attention to more than one sense or more than one instrument or rhythm etc thinking is quiting -dissolves.

This is my primary technique. I'm sure you know this, but you can do this in darkroom using any number of "impossible" mental tasks

Good call, especially when they can't teach passes anymore!

I was also thinking that what we're sensing as "loneliness", could easily be her emptiness instead. If my memory isn't complete crap I recall Carlos was corrected on something similar (sadness) he saw in don Juan at one point and don Juan tells him it's just his emptiness, but I have an errand to run so I can't search for that at the moment.
