MG,

I truly don't mean any disrespect. I guess I find your style a little affected, kinda tacky.

If I can be precise and concise with my thoughts in one medium why shouldn't I be? Forcing one to make an educated guess at what you are trying to say is folly when you could just say it and be done. Isn't there enough out there to keep us guessing? It just becomes obfuscation.

Thank you for the article BTW.

I believe the fact that the usual midevil treatment was not used has allowed him to evolve..he shows few signs of disturbances but the abilities grow. He does still sense and hear the judgments of others but has learned to not let it affect him. He grows beyond us all as I am sure others like him do.

It helps attune them, to their ability that is why, no more need be said right.

I know what you mean, I do. But what about other folks? They might be put off. Is this your "filter?"

When it is their time to know they will and that may come with a lot of repitition and deep thinking on their parts, but for those aware know, and that is enough for me.

I hadn't heard that, she seems like a bright woman. Channeling is a discipline I have yet to touch. It is quite distinct from telepathy as I understand it. Thanks for the quote though.

I think that theory is perhaps the closest to truth - whatever "evolution" (in this context) means.

And this observation



He is also the most intelligent person I know


even if it is necessarily subjective, addresses a very important point.
Schizophrenia is indeed called "the intelligent man's disease".
As I remember saying in another thread, I am yet to see or read about a "schizophrenic" whose intelligence wasn't significantly above average.

And yes, of course I am aware that the notion of "intelligence", and, especially, the means of measuring it are highly contentious themselves. What I mean by "intelligence" is evidence of coherent (if "unconventional"), all-encompassing - and sometimes extremely articulate - observation of the world.

Channeling is just remote talking to yourselves across other planes of existance.

It is an all encompassing intelligence, emotional, observational..his senses are accute which ads to the acumulated knowledge. How many people can discribe the energy that trees give off, or the path that a lightning strike will take just before it strikes. Every day I look at the power our brains are capable of. It is the ill judgements of the world that hold back these minds.

I am aware of other planes of existence if you can call them that. I don't know, I suppose for that reason I put channeling in a different category than telepathy. I can project my mind anywhere. I just think labeling these planes of existence takes away from the credibility of the experience. Makes them seem like some New Age schlock that you have to pay someone for instead of an intrinsic ability that (I think) all of us have from birth.

Thats exactly in a sense of what it is, its seeing beyond the normal perception of mankind. PURE ENERGY STATE, the state in which you arrive in yourself and outside at one sigularity of the moment. Your awareness shifts into other things besides yourself.

Its one is the same tool, it just arrives at different stages of awareness to see. But yes its all within us to see.Those different planes of existance are just different levels of consciousness.

I especially like your pointing out that trees give off energy too. How would one describe that? I suppose if you took '___' and drew a black outline around everything. Short of that, I am at a loss for words.
