Channelers, mediums and psychic readings

Channelers, mediums and psychic readings have existed for ages. But are they real? Some people would claim that they are. Some would claim that it is not accurate. Now you have some psychics who would add disclaimers like one I know who keeps saying that she is wrong 70% of the time. :-)

Of course, as usual, there will be those of us who say this is un-"whatever". [sigh]... Whatever lah..

Psychic readings basically tap into your consciousness and pick the vibes and "read" them. Channelers and mediums usually have a spiritual being or deity that act as the "informer". The channeler/medium acts only as that, a channel or medium for the information to flow through.

My understanding of how Channelers, mediums and psychic readings work is this:-

Let's just take a paralel. Think of your life as a DVD Role Playing Game :-)

In that disc all moves and their corresponding resultant sequence of events and outcomes have already been played. It's all stored in that disc. And as you, the player, makes a certain decision during gameplay, the corresponding data is extracted and brought to your character in the game.

Some different moves still lead to the same outcomes. Some moves, on the other hand, leads to completely different outcomes.

Still follow me?

And the likelihood is that you as the player have a certain set of believes when you play the game that would generally guide you to make decisions based on those believe system and so you will choose moves that are consistent with that.

Of course there are those of us who are more adventurous in a game than in real life coz we know it is a game. But that's besides the point.

The point is that we bring forth from the disc, events and outcomes (in the game) as a result of the moves and decisions we made during role playing.

Take this same paradigm back to reality and Channelers, mediums, and psychic readers. In real life, your believe systems that lies within your subconscious act as a guiding "navigator" for you in your decision making process.

So when a psychic, medium, or Channelers "reads" you, the reading is based on the stage in life where you are now, the "direction" you are headed, and your general guiding principles. Hence from there, they pick up the vibes of your future outcome.

And it is accurate.

However, and this is a BIG however. If you are someone who is constantly growing i.e. developing yourself, then the reading may differ from the actual outcome.

This is because as you "grow" you make different decisions because your context is bigger. You make more informed decisions, enlightened decisions and so forth. Hence psychic readings turn out to be "in-accurate" for you.

Actually it is not that they are inaccurate, you've been growing so your future potential outcomes keep changing so how can anyone read something that keeps changing? The reading was accurate at the point of reading. Get it?

Now, let's look at the dangers..

I personally believe that although there is a spiritual link between the channeler/medium and the "higher being", a lot still depends on the spiritual strength of the channeler/medium. It is not impossible for that link to be broken and "usurped" by dark forces and hence forth the channeler/medium become an agent for dark forces and their agenda. And if the channeler/medium is not spiritually strong, he/she cannot stop that break, nor can they tell that a break (or usurpation) has occurred.

When such an event happens, then it falls on you as the inquirer to be able to discern between good advice from bad advice. Usually it is quite obvious.

Say for example: in the past, the advice has been to do charity or even if it is to do with business and making money, it never hurts anyone. Suddenly the tune changes to advices to do the contrary, then it is quite obvious to you as the inquirer that this channeler/medium has been usurped and no longer with the light. However, this would depend on your ability to discern. But most of us would have in built intuition (our guardian angels as some would call it) that would give hints or that nagging feeling that it ain't right anymore. :-)

Now, some people would say we should avoid going to channelers/mediums etc in the first place. Well, I prefer to say, it depends. Sometimes, going to one does help especially when there are a lot of ambiguity on which road to take. However, I must add a caveat. I would only go to one whom I know for sure to be with the Light.
