Psychic Readings truth or fiction?

Copyright Marga Young 2003.

Everybody would like to know the future in order to take away the fear of the unknown. We try to cover ourselves for any possible problem the future might hold with pension plans, saving money, building a big house, a bomb shelter, etc. Would it not be nice if we could just go on the internet and find out what the future holds for us? This is the promise that psychic readings hold out for us. But is it all in our minds or is it true?

Many people from all walks of life will swear that a psychic has actually given them a message from a person that passed to the other side, a message nobody could know about except the person him/herself. Or maybe the psychic told them something that actually came true. Have you yourself not ever had a feeling that something was wrong and when you called home to check, something had indeed happened? Or maybe just that strange feeling that you have met somebody before.

There are many things our science does not have an answer for. I myself am a scientist and I have experienced a lot of things I cannot explain. I have looked into Kierlian technology, psychology, NLP, hypnotherapy and a host of other esoteric and psychological techniques. The most powerful I found is Vipassana meditation. It gives you insight beyond anything I have ever experienced before. And at the same time, the insights are so simple, that they are hard to imagine. We tend to make everything in our lives too difficult and meditation can help us straighten everything out again.

But how about clairvoyance? Of course there are many impostors who claim to be clairvoyant but are actually just trying to make a quick buck. But there are also those who are very sincere. I believe that when we are able to still the mind like in meditation, we can receive insights from another realm. I do not see this as an afterlife or anything like that, but as something that is always there around us, but to which we have learned not to pay attention. Children are usually quite intuitive about all sorts of things, but these things are usually rationalised away by adults. Have you ever wondered if your child s imaginary playmate was not so imaginary?

It is difficult to imagine but I believe that we are all one in a way. When we are still and just observe ourselves and our surroundings as we really are, we notice that our body is made up out of millions of moving particles. Of course there is nothing new here; scientists have known this for many years. But just to sit and to feel it gives you a knowledge that surpasses the knowledge of the brain. It will make you realise that all we are
is energy. Just like everybody else and just like everything else around us. But we feel like individuals, split off from the rest. How come is that? If you really think about is, you can ask yourself if we are really so split off . We cannot possibly exist without the rest of humanity and the rest of the world. We are an integral part of the whole. Our feeling of individuality comes from our ego, that likes to think we are somehow "different from others, usually in terms of better or worse.

When we are all one and when we manage to set our ego aside for a moment by becoming still in our mind, we are able to access information that we would otherwise not be able to, mainly because our mind is too busy creating and defending our ego. I believe that this is the source of clairvoyance, clairaudience, etc. I do not think there are actually spirits standing behind the clairvoyant, whispering information in his or her ear. I
believe that a clairvoyant picks up information from the vast source of information that we are a part of.

So how can you tell a good psychic from a bad one? The best thing to do is not to give the clairvoyant any information. Just ask him or her: how about my relationship, business, etc?. If they are able to pick up on your situation quickly and adequately, then you know you have found a good one. But always keep in mind that with the future predictions, THEY MIGHT BE WRONG!

Another topic I briefly wish to mention here is witchcraft and spells. Many people nowadays turn to magick spells, especially when it comes to finding a loved one or getting a loved one back. Also in order to get financial security, etc. All this has to do with fear and therefore with negative energies. It is simply not right if we wish to manipulate another person into coming back to us or falling in love with us by using magick. In my experience, magick spells do work because of the powerful energy we project into the world. But there always is a downside and this negative energy will always come back to us. In meditation you will learn that whatever happens, everything passes away again. It is our craving for pleasurable feelings and our abortion of negative feelings that makes us unhappy. Happiness can only be found in not clinging to anything, not in trying to manipulate the world around us to do what we would like. And in using magick, we
do just that, trying to manipulate the world and others. In my own case, I used a magick spell because my boyfriend wanted to break up with me. It worked and he stayed with me for another year. But this year was very difficult for both of us and after we finally broke up, I realised that we would both have been far more happy when we had gone our separate ways. In this year I was very afraid and depressed because I was so afraid of us splitting up. Looking back at it, I know I should not have done it.

But with everything, nothing is so powerful as direct experience. If you feel that maybe a love-spell or any other magick spell will help you, look at the links on http://psychic.allnaturalworld.us/

and become learned,
how your pride has grown!
The inner eye had not opened;
you have not found true wisdom
