    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    • Clairvoyance or "clear seeing", is the ability to see anything that is not physically present, such as objects, animals or people. This sight occurs "in the mind's eye". Some mediums say that this is their normal vision state. Others say that they must train their minds with such practices as meditation in order to achieve this ability, and that assistance from spiritual helpers is often necessary. Some clairvoyant mediums can see a spirit as though the spirit has a physical body. They see the bodily form as if it were physically present. Other mediums see the spirit in their mind's eye, or it appears as a movie or a television programme or a still picture like a photograph in their mind.
    • Clairaudience or "clear hearing", is usually defined as the ability to hear the voices or thoughts of spirits. Some mediums hear as though they are listening to a person talking to them on the outside of their head, as though the Spirit is next to or near to the medium, and other mediums hear the voices in their minds as a verbal thought.
    • Clairsentience or "clear sensing", is the ability to have an impression of what a spirit wants to communicate, or to feel sensations instilled by a spirit.
    • Clairsentinence or "clear feeling" is a condition in which the medium takes on the ailments of a spirit, feeling the same physical problem which the spirit person had before death.
    • Clairalience or "clear smelling" is the ability to smell a spirit. For example, a medium may smell the pipe tobacco of a person who smoked during life.
    • Clairgustance or "clear tasting" is the ability to receive taste impressions from a spirit.
    • Claircognizance or "clear knowing", is the ability to know something without receiving it through normal or psychic senses. It is a feeling of "just knowing". Often, a medium will claim to have the feeling that a message or situation is "right" or "wrong."



    Initiation into Hermetics by Franz Bardon is a great primer





    communicating with the dead is no different in practice than the notion of WWJD?


    I like to channel spirits into structures I design before I build them; a spiral staircase for example. A simple mental exercise; imagine two deceased people you personally knew... and they meet in the middle of some location; a spiral staircase you're about to build.... what do they each think? what if they were coming from opposite directions? Mysticism doesn't need to be so mystical.

    FWIW, I always kinda figured that 'WWJD' was just more of a 'what if' theoretical construct and suggested behavior guide.

    I find in practice the more often you tune into a "theoretical construct" the more life it takes on.

    What's your take/opinion on 'remote viewing'?

  9. #8
    Sometimes I feel like I feel my father nudging me to do something and when I do it always turns out good. He has been dead for many years. He died young. He taught me a lot about politics. We used to argue about politics a lot. He worried about the time when a black president would come into office and said the world would be in upheaval when it happened.

    I don't find the practice to be any more remarkable than the scene from rainman where he sees 243 toothpics hit the ground and counts them in the bat of any eye... 81+81+ 81; 243. I'm certainly open to the notion that some individuals have the clairvoyant aptitude to remote view far beyond my own. I don't see remote viewing any different from remembering where you left your socks in light of the fact that your dog likes to take them outside. Is it any different from being aware of a predator in the jungle because of the actions of birds in the canopy? I think there is a degree of spectrum between simple memories, photographic memories, and clairvoyant visions.

    I believe that over the centuries humanity has lost a lot of knowledge and abilities, especially in the spiritual parts of our lives.

    That's probably not by accident.

    Interesting, I took a few classes in something called "Alpha Awareness", back in the 70's. We had some class exercises in something I now understand to have been an earlier form of remote viewing. It was interesting and educational. I wasn't quite the star of the class, but I had a few unexplainable hits. We also did some aura readings and spirit quide work, among some other espy stuff. Booga, booga!
