What is Intuition?

If you’re new here, seek and you will find…and subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Intuition is an ill defined faculty. There is a lot of debate whether it is real at all. But from my own experience, intuition is what is suppose to motivate science but doesn’t anymore. There is a type of [...]

Intuitive Techniques

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 you feel something about a place or person or idea and you didn’t choose to.  The intuitive [...]

Conditioning

Conditioning is a terrible thing to overcome, and in identifying it we resist it. It was all we were taught to do… not identifying the source, that primal world that we still come from. We didn’t arise by accident. No body does. Accidents are human, but even that is not defining. Accidents are human, but [...]

Gratitude is …

There is a simpler word for gratitude, but the word is generally seen in a more abstract light. Gratitude is love.
We didn’t make ourselves. We are not the source of our own advent. We still exist due to a process that we can’t really control and we don’t need to. Gratitude is faith, present centered [...]

Focus of our Attention

What can we focus our attention on? Really we don’t actually ever focus it on objects, is too abstract. The brain always processes any sensory data well before we are even aware of the object. It is how it is supposed to function. Matter isn’t a valid choice for awareness focus.
So seems we are in [...]

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 [...]

Embrace Light and Shadow

For any light you have a shadow. The truth of any spirit is found not in the object of the senses nor its opposite, but in between. But often we see only what we choose to. We declare one small facet of reality ‘truth’, and refuse to see it very deeply. People refuse to see [...]

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” [...]

Our Thought and Senses

What is the form of thought? Now that is interesting. Form is coherent or “encoded” memory. Energy I mean, and memory. The energy of any given object is perceptible to us. The memory and the energy of the object are not separate, but thought seems more nebulous than sense data, less clear. It’s actually not.
It’s [...]

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 [...]

Sense of Place

The topic is sense of place and I don’t mean societal role. More of how where you are is a part of who you are, or rather who you see yourself to be. A lot of what you think as true of you applies also to what you think is true of where you live, [...]

Power of Ability

Ego thinks ‘I do’ and that by virtue of ‘myself‘ I must do everything. Thought is not self. Thought is process and we are “created in gods image”. All powerful. Which means we have the power of ability to do all things. Good or bad.
We get caught up in the same thing. Ego is doing [...]

Psychic Doing: Feeling

Ok, so far other posts in this series have only discussed the principles of how psychic function is possible. We haven’t gone into the actual doing yet, and it is potentially helpful to figure out the actual doing of it.
Space and time do not exist, thus you remember a contact even when you are not experiencing [...]

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 [...]

The Doubting Psychic

You may be cautious about your mind ‘making up’ a story. If so, don’t believe these words and don’t believe your thinking right now. It is the same process. Don’t believe what your body is telling you. We all take cognizance in exactly the same way, it is all the mind making up a story.
Daydreaming [...]
