Question for anyone.

Do you think that people are becoming more psychic now? That somehow we are heading into a more "spiritually enlightened" and "tuned-in" era?

Or does it have to do with shows like Medium and Ghost Whisperer? Or people like Sylvia Browne and John Edward and Allison DuBois being out with thier gifts and having so much attention?

Or maybe it has to do with the need of people now to search for answers more than before.

What do you think??

I'll give my opinion later, after reading a few of other people's.

Thanks!!!

I believe the consciousness of all humans are expanding. We are all growing towards an enlightened age.

Things have been picking up alot lately.

 

psy is essential for crucial survival . we live in a uniquely perilous time - the industrial/atomic age . certainly if the planet survives it , we may consider our humanity enlightened . your every effort on behalf of health and peace is real and appreciated . know all you can . the more you love , the more you can know .

so psy on kindly .

every detail is important for collective , intuitive action .

 

yes--a psychic quickening has been happening for the last few years. back in the day my clients coming for readings were asking what colour car they should buy or where to vacation....now i find most ask about their purpose in life.


its an inspiring time to be in the field.

the television shows you mentioned are just confirmation that this is true...the stuff only a small percentage of people once concidered is now being gobbled down by the masses. conciousness is shifting, and will continue to shift towards 2012.

 

I do believe people in general are more aware and knowledgeable about psychic/spiritual awareness. And, I do think that what is on TV and in other media is very helpful and largely responsible for the overall spreading and acceptance of this knowledge.

When I was a little kid in the 50s, anything other than straight on Sunday School Christianity was considered insane -- and, evil. If what is aired in the media now was presented then, heads would have rolled.

So, yes, I think there is a far greater, and expanding, awareness and acceptance.

 

I think this is true in civilized, "rational" Western society, at least--mainly because the tendency toward suppression and repression is receding, as mojave noted. The potential has always been there, at all times, but it's now being encouraged to a larger degree, so naturally the potential is finding an outlet.

In more "backward" societies, where psychic stuff has always been encouraged, its manifestation has been more prevalent.

 

As man continues to evolve as a species areas of the brain previously dormant are becoming active.

Within a few generations certifiable psychics will begin to emerge and not only will they be able to pass scientific scrutiny, they will open up new branches of science that will revolutionize our understanding of ourselves and our place in the universe.

Damn.

This is inspiring...and for some reason I believe you're right, hotwater.

It really IS true...I let my "rational" mind get in the way...but I can see it clearly in the evolution of my own abilities in only a few years. You're right, hotwater. It's inevitable. At some point it will become too obvious to shrug off.

 

Thanks, but while I’m confident darwinian evolution is still working its magic on us, I suspect applied biotechnology will ultimately beat darwin to the punch

When I was working toward my biochemistry degree, back at the dawn of time, my goal was to pursue research into the neurochemical basis for psychic ability. As I learned more about the state of existing knowledge at the time, I finally concluded that science was nowhere near advanced enough for me to even get a foothold on this goal in my lifetime. I still believe that. My personal belief is that IF there is any physical, measurable basis for psychic knowledge, physicists are still centuries away from identifying it. I do not believe it has anything to do with electromagnetic energy--I believe it's something much subtler, and that understanding it will require a revolution in our view of how the universe works.

That much being said, I think that electromagnetic energy WILL be used to simulate some psychic abiities long before we understand true psychic phenomena. And I can see this happening possibly within my lifetime.

 

Science will never be able to truly capture psychic phenomena except in the theoretical. There is no voltmeter for these things. Psychic phenomina happen because of the soul which generates concious energy. There is no physical device that can measure it. The effects may one day be noticed, but not the source. Another human being can detect it, but it is extremely improbable (I never say impossible) that a machine ever will.

 

I tend to agree - but as you say, never say impossible. What an ironic thing to contemplate - that the source of everything in the physical universe might never be detectable by physical instruments. Thus the spiritual path is forever protected from prying by people who are mired in rationality - until they loosen their grip on their rational anchors and let the nonrational currents carry them finally toward true understanding.

 

well im studying psychology and i think its pretty interesting how people that claim to be clairvoyant are locked up in mental institutions as having psychological disorders
like who are we to say that theyre crazy
is it possible that they are just gifted??

 

i dont know.

true psychics to me mean they are in tune and aware with/in nature, a few days before the tsunami, animals were seen moving uphill. tribal men followed them. maybe they just knew too,,,or maybe they just trusted the animals acute instincts....i dont know, but either way they trusted something. to me its more about trusting your instincts.

 

one time at a rainbow gathering my friend cookie had one by one been approached by 6 pychics and each told him they just had a dream about some great awful explosive event coming our way . he got awful worried and got it in his mind it'd be a nuke . also he could gave a date for it to happen - during the upcoming gathering in new york ( about six weeks from then ) .

cookie's kinda of a nervous sort anyway , so i was used to calming him down somehow . did that then didn't see him for a year . i asked him then about those dreamers , and too , what had happened at that prophesied time . he'd rather almost forgotten about it .

cookie ? it was katrina .

i'd think it's the collective emotion of shock that got painted in dreams as a future tragic explosion .

 

So what happened?

 

i guess cookie got honored somehow .

 

I'm still confused, the prophecised explosion turned out to be Hurricane Katrina?

 

It was estimated that Hurricane Katrina released energy equivalent to 50,000 1-Megaton nuclear explosions

i don't know what the psychics actually said to him . from what each of them said cookie then had his own version of it - a picture of a tragic explosion and a focused time period . very simple and to the point emotionally - it conveys that exploding feeling of a nation which was ignited by katrina . a sad tension frustration war was already within the people . spark , boom , and on time .

why did they tell cookie ?
