This whole thing about expanded awareness would be a lot easier if I hadn't got really ill - that little fact of illness means everyone is very skeptical, once you start to fill them in on the details! Actually, "acceptance" of being psychic for a lot of people can still be just an attitude of detached skepticism and perceptions of eccentricity, I imagine, like looking at someone 'askance' and saying "Okay. (You're not hurting anyone...) You get on with it."
But really, I, and maybe you too, can assert that There Is A God, and that knowing God and angels and Heavenly spirits directly and not just through belief Is A Gift.
You make your own mind up, just for you, without worrying about what others think, whether they think being psychic is associating with the Devil, or... whether they call you insane.
There's not really anyone to fight over this. We can let the world get on with its thing and evolve. Little point in arguing.
Funny, state-run psychiatry is state-sanctioned secularism, an officially sanctioned non-spiritual belief system. But lets not get down about it, but be bold in our convictions and feel a sense of community here. There is hope for us personally, and for a more integrated psychological belief system to be held by those medics with professional power.
I for one see having a sensitive mind as a positive thing in itself, and I hope that anyone who needs to feel that also, can do so.
The root thought here is that you can feel alone, not knowing anyone with similar experience and perspective - and that secondly, you can feel hurt when others disbelieve you, judge you, treat you roughly in some way, just through their own difference of nature. But let's not carry around anger, as a principle, but tolerance, just the same as can exist between all people, essentially, and particularly when it comes to matters of belief. That way, with tolerance, we make room for a happier world to grow with us.
Happy day! You might be what they call "psychic", and you can also think that it's okay to be psychic. Being psychic can do you and others a lot of favours! This is good news! God is Love.
I also affirm that, wondrously, hallucination, delusion and psychic perception can occur side by side.Which is confusing at the time! And can seem impossible to rational people at the other end of the mental sensitivity / intuitive spectrum, but there we go. Like I have written before, for those with an inclination to believe here: if a person can be psychic, then why not also those people who happen to have symptoms of serious mental illness / serious disturbance to brain-mind functioning. If them, then why not me too? Why not?
The other night I woke up with an awareness of what I was dreaming. In the dream I saw the words written "He is so precious. He's a psychic." This I interpreted to mean that someone was appreciating me, and confirming my psychic awareness (following the belief that dreams can be a forum for extra-sensory phenomena and communication). This was something very special to me. Validation can come from within! Even when it seems no-one in the world believes or supports you. But I say to you who have mighty convictions of your own sensitivity of mind, you too are precious.
Thank you,
Mr. S.

Brilliant commentary. You have a knack for saying things for what they are. Yes, I'd have to say that once you reveal (I've managed to hide it) the "spiritual experiences" you've had to other people, and complain about mental health issues, you immediately "lose credibility" amongst people, and they shun you, be they your longterm friends, family, etc. So it's a hazardous, unpleasant road to travel down; however, I think it's a vital road to travel down at least once before you reach the end of your life, because those who don't, are the probably the dementia patients you see in the seniors wards. Live today, pretend to face your death today, and you'll have a better tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteAgain, good luck with everything friend.

One last thing, your Christian upbringing might be obfuscating your interaction with It (the Spirit/God/Nature's Consciousness/whatever the heck It is).
ReplyDeleteNobel Prize winner Dr John Nash was also diagnosed with "schizophrenia" and he's back at his job today doing mathematics research. He was the basis for the movie "A Beautiful Mind" which was largely a fictionalized construct made by a Jewish producer. Look into that. Remember that before Christianity, there was Zorastrianism. Today we have Eckhart Tolle, ... there are countless others one could mention from past to present. The common denominators of all these "prophets" throughout time was that they were always alone when they had their spiritual experiences, and by modern medical standards, they'd all be classified as "schizophrenics" today. Whatever God is, humanity hasn't properly documented and described It ... present day science has completely ruled It out ... which is a mistake.
