I need some help with the term взаимная когнитивная связь as I have never heard this used before.
Here's the context:
Я, как и большинство, знала об этом по рассказам — мое подключение не было пересечением. Имело место лишь считывание Богиней информации с моего мозга, не было соединения с взаимной когнитивной связью. А ведь есть люди, хоть их еще довольно мало, которые находятся в пересечении с Ней постоянно или почти постоянно!
This is very difficult so I would appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance so much for your help!

Two-way cognitive link
Just another suggestion. David’s is perfectly good too, in my opinion.

mutual cognitive link/connection
This depends a little on how you decide to translate пересечение, but I think I would keep "cognitive" and probably "mutual".
These are interesting questions...

context based variant
Based on your context i would put "one-way (passive) connection / link" because, as i see it, author wants to emphasize the point of lacking two-way communication link/connection.

cognitive bond
Perhaps "cognitive bond"? The text conveys a sense of intimacy and 'bond' seems to me to be more expressive of this than either 'link' or 'connection'

What a nightmarish bulls**t to translate, sorry...
