It's not a problem that one can feel emotions but on one's reflection of feeling emotion that makes for the subject-object division apparent. Most other animals can experience pain and to them, such a feeling is objective or existent in the sense that they don't have a theory of mind; a solipsistic world-view will also suffice along with Panthiesm/moniesm traditions. Perhaps the problem is that modern Western man pretends he is a self-agent, subject to no one's will but his own. If he listens closely within, he can hear that it is the world that beckons him to grow.I don't think that inner and outer world aren't separate, since we wouldn't feel emotions then; objects draw and invoke emotions.
