Intuitive Techniques

If you’re new here, seek and you will find…and subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Some intuitive techniques might be helpful and interesting.  Intuition will be experienced in a very individual way, and I will run some phenomenon by you.

First intuitive technique is feeling that has no source we can identify with our senses. When [...]

Resistance and Principles

What is the difference between resistance and principles? Principles manifest as essences, and they don’t block you. They empower you. To say I believe that love is the highest ideal. What does love as the highest ideal prevent you from? Really nothing. It engages you more in life. It’s like saying food is good for [...]

Embrace the Truth

Two subjects go together well: bonding and harmlessness. ‘Unity’ would be both topics as one word. What is called ‘love’ ultimately…unconditioned. I will discuss the conditions people labour under and perhaps why they arise and how we can own them in ourselves instead of being owned by them.
Internal focus. It doesn’t have to be created. [...]

Observation as a Keystone

Observation is really a keystone of spirituality as well as science. The capability we call observation runs deeper than the sense. As a matter of fact, there are whole scientific and military disciplines focused on “training” observation even though our senses work. The eastern teachings pointed out that senses are distracting and meditation is in [...]

Dogma

In the Egyptian book of the dead they speak of death as a journey. One of the signs on that path is a mirror. The path is a mirror. You grow in the way you are, not in the way you are told you are. Many dogmas stunt people, trap them. Is regrettable, but they [...]

What is ‘Psychic’?

Psychic function is not any more mysterious or complicated than learning style. One of the biggest stumbling blocks about learning to perform psychically is the idea that it’s necessarily a special state of mind. The brain itself is a sense organ. It exists to sense the input from the senses and assemble it into “coherent” [...]

Avoid the Madness

Shoulda, woulda, coulda syndrome. Why does it exist? Should? then why? Would have? then why didn’t you? Could of? what does that mean? It’s madness.
You can question everything. I strongly encourage it. The point where nothing seems to have meaning because everything is questionable, that is when you can see real meaning because it is [...]

Triggering Psychic Function

So how to trigger the psychic ability if we choose, or knowingly avoid the triggers? Your mind is a world. Has many facets like a kaleidoscope that will show you different things with a change in focus. Most people are more focused on emotion than they would admit, and so they are caught up in [...]

Doubt in Life

Lately, I have been dealing with the affects of doubt in my life. So the topic today is the impact on doubt in the process of meditation. Now doubt is a very common process. We are brought up to engage in the style of thinking that encourages doubt and honestly doubt isn’t completely worthless. But [...]

Focus Determines Reality

‘Focus determines your reality’. Your reality is more than what you see with your eyes. Can you recall a time when you really only had one thing on your mind? When you’re doing a task that you’re really absorbed in?
Have you ever been in that state where you desired companionship and didn’t perceive yourself to [...]

Psychic Doing: Vision

You can also try a vision exercise. What we will look at is self directed vision. If you have a stronger sense, it makes sense to use it and use vision to supplement it if you need more clarity. So with vision…the same exercise as feeling, only different focus.
Exercise:

Focus on seeing. Recall a place or [...]

Impact of Perspective

The subject is the impact of perspective on spiritual life. Some see it as merely a tendency for distortion. They think we don’t see clearly because of our ego putting an overlay on spiritual experience. I would say individual experience is the life blood of the spiritual path. They say we all have a message we [...]

Perception of Reality

You never perceive reality directly with your senses. It isn’t how it works. And how and what you perceive is determined by your focus, often subconsciously according to conditioning. If you can see what you don’t see, then your perspective isn’t a trap, it’s an incarnation.
Many schools speak of a mental body, in one terminology [...]

Dream and Astral Travel

The subject of dream and astral travel is a bit complex, so forgive me if I have to cover a lot of theory. The subject is also a little broad. In fact, I will start with a little neural science. It applies both to near death (nde) phenomenon and hypnogogic states. Your brain actually processes [...]

Principle of Affinity

There is a principle of affinity. To see another level you do have to achieve a resonance with it. There does seem to be a bit of glorification of this and I think the reason would be that some levels do feel uplifting. They can create a sense of euphoria as the fairies dance did [...]
