My psychic development is going nowhere

Nope, it's just not happening for me. I've had a few lucid dreams, and two obes(that are indisernable from dreams) and some sleep paralysis, but other than that, zilch in other psychic areas. I am not sure what's wrong. I event went for a hypnosis session recently, and the hypnotist was unable to hypnotize me, I just played along, not to upset him. He was a very kind and compassionate person.

I just cannot feel, it's as if my emotional body is blocked by something. When I meditate, I am able to completely shut down my mind, that I am thinking of nothing. Yet, I do not hear, see or feel absolutely anything from the astral plane, or the spirits or psychic thoughtsetc. I am not even trying too hard, nor not trying.

In addition to that the psychic circle I was in, kicked me out The leader of the group had a problem with my "energy" - In fact, what hapend, she had a row with me, instigated by her, then suddenly my "energy" is not good enough for her. Anyway, I think she's a fake anyway, she gets more than 95% of what she says wrong.

I am going absolutely nowhere in my psychic development. Can anyone help, or hone into my aura, to see exactly what's wrong?

Perhaps, I just don't have psychic abilities in me. Which according to dozens of spiritualists, mediums and psychics who encounter me, is wrong, I am apparantly suppose to be very psychic and have very divine powers around me --- but where the hell are they

Well where do you currently live. Enviornment could play a big factor in developing your psychic abilities. That's if I believed in them. However, could it be that you are exposed to too much radiation in your community? Maybe a nearby powerplant is to blame? Where have you lived previously and what enviornmental conditions did you grow up in?

have you tried working on your chakras?

Indigo_Child, I know we differ on a few things, but I can offer some advice from my limited perspective.

When I have the kinds of problems you are describing , it's usually a sign that something's bothering me, but I'm not dealing with it.

I suspect that some sort of emotional conflict may be what's "holding you back". The symptoms can be subtle, and the causes even more elusive.

Of course, it could be something else entirely, but I recommend checking for sources of stress that may be flying in under your radar.

Like everyone else, you deserve all the slack you can get!

What you think, you become. Truly believe in yourself and the sky is the limit.

A. maybe, just 'going into a pitch-black movie theatre', isn't what is meant by
the ''clear-your-mind-of-all-mundane-thoughts' instruction...

B. i bet you are result oriented...nothing but a 'satisfactory'
outcome will be tolerated ...yes-no?

? have you, as yet, approached ZEN ??

I have several suggestions that might help.

When you try, try in a room where you are very comfortable-not physically, but mentally. Remove or at least shut off all forms of radiations theses might include: TV, Radio, Lights, Microwave, phone....

This may sound silly, but at first it helps to be buzzed. No I am not kidding, it helps to keep down the "white noise of the mind"-invading thoughts and such.

A major factor is strong emotions-Love, Hate, Passion.....they don't really do anything, but they help the mind concentrate on only one thought.

Try picturing what you want to happen-talking to someone far away-for example, in your minds eye. What I mean is see it happening like a memory.

The more upset you get about it, the harder it is going to get.

You need to set clear goals and aims and set out a game plan. Relaxing and hoping to have an OBE or AP or Cross Over, it will not happen. Becuase you are wanting it all far too quick.

It can take months to master relaxation.
It can take many months to control the astral and use symbolism in your dreams to make them lucid.

I would suggest that you firstly begin by lie down flat on your bed. Listen to the silence around you. take it all in. shut down and slow down some system within. Almost like dimming a light in your house. Keep your mind clear of thoughts like....am i relaxed yet, am i projecting...I cannot hear voices whats wrong with..... Just relax...

Do this at set times keep and make a routine. things will change for you ....firstly you will personally. Things will not seem so intense and stress full in your life.....Then your priorites will change... A kind of higher sense of love well being will ebb from you....then eventually you will achieve these goals you personally want to achieve or experience.

It will not happen over night.

I would suggest that you need to be absolutely clear about what you want to achieve. Read up on it. Read up on all the veious methods or relaxation. Try them. But dont give up....It took me a long time to find the point when i could totally relax. with practise it gets much easier.

Good Luck.

Simulacra, no nuclear or powerplants around this area. I am in the centre of the city.

worldwatcher, yeah I tried chakra meditations, still no avail. This one in particular, I found on some channelers web site, of summoning the Mahatma energy and then systematically working through the chakras, it was soothing, but no results.

Majic, yes there are unresolved childhood issues, that all we Indigo children apparantly face, that are lying deep in my subconscious, that conventional therapy cannot absolve. Hence, why I went to the hypnotist, who cannot hypnotize me. I am not sure what else I can do.

Yes, I do relax when I meditate and attempt psychic exercises. It soothes me, but there are no results.

thirddensity, read my signature mate. I definitely believe in myself.

St Udio, I clear my mind of all thoughts, nirvana, no sound. However, it seems all I am shutting down is my conscious mind, it is perhaps my deepest unconscious mind that is generating all the noise.

Yes, I am results orientated. I have not tried Zen properly, but I did read up on koans, like the sound of one hand clapping, and that has not done anything for me either. I already know logic is inadequate.

mrmonsoon,

I dim all the lights(I have also tried with lights) I turn of the radio, TV, mobile phones. I light a candle, and sometimes incense, and play soothing relaxation music. I relax, but nothing more than that.

Boon_Dog,

It's been 7 months now, I started with the mindset of letting everything flow, but after 7 months, not getting any solid results, has disenchanted me somewhat. That tells me something is wrong, and until that something is not rectified, I could go on another 7 years doing the same, and still get nothing.

I do everything you say, relax, sometimes in the lotus position, sitting or lying down, and then slowly shift my awareness to my third eye, generating a tingling feeling there. I can do all this, I can become very relaxed, and I can feel like I am floating, but that is where it ends. No results in my psychic development.

The biggest experience I've had in my development in this regard, is a breath entering my mouth and saying my name, spontaneously and at night, where it is uncertain wether I was dreaming or not.

I have read up on what I want to do. I am very interested in healing, and I have noticed I can generate a lot of energy at my palms. However, what I am interested in, is the ability to feel, because that is what is lacking in my life and the ability to connect to my higher and intuitive self.

I have three books on psychic development, and a few more on spiritualism, meditation and karma. I've borrowed two more from the library. I have also read many articles online. So, on the theory and technique side of things, I am well versed.

Thank you for everyones rapid feedback

When i first had my moment it was after i had been very upset and i was Crying like a baby do to a recent upset in my life.

I had been trying for some time to relax and do all the things you say you have tryed. But once i had done crying,(as you know you get tired after a good cry) I relaxed and just cleared my whole head and body and i began to project.
I wont lie to you....it was very scary and made me very nervous, but its something that you naturally want to try and do again...so i kept at it and it came.....

But do not try and make it happen....let it happen...

Dont give up ... have a cry ....it may work.....

Oh and the crying thing...
thats our little secret...dont tell no one!

Regards

Boondog.

Too much exposure to any kind of radiation certainly hinders it for me. Certainly weakens the energy body as well as the physical. Thank goodness for filters.

Indigo_Child,

Psychic abilities are Gifts of the Spirit. They cannot be turned on and off at will. However, they can be cultivated indirectly. We do this through prayer, meditation, Heart Chakra Radiance -- a very direct and disciplined approach, serving others, and striving to live by The Golden Rule.

In your particular case, I think the problem is you need to serve more.

"When you help someone, you become the difference that God makes."

Serving others draws people on the Other Side to work through you and around you. When this happens, your Gifts of the Spirit increase.

Want more Gifts?

Embrace a more selfless life

Maybe you can take a Silva course. There might be a workshop somewhere in your area.


You can also use some technology.

There are different products that can help. At www.xtrememind.com... you can buy some cd's that use binaural beat technology. They are very good, and the best one is called Kundalini Activator (KA).

Monroe institute also has some stuff, although they're more expensive.

Then there is www.transparentcorp.com.... They sell software which can lower your brainwaves to an alpha or theta level (deep meditation) using sound. I've used the trial versions and I can say that they work excellently.

ANd then you can also try out radionics and orgone generators.

Xtrememind sells them as well.

Higher power tech sells them also. They're from Fort Lauderdale

Ernie Vega sells them also.

There are other's but it's 5 o'clock now and I'm going home first..

When I find I'm fighting myself on such things, I usually take a complete break from them. Go do something else for awhile, like reading the fiction genre of your choice, some craft or artistic project, etc. You'll know when it's time, and thanks to the break will be able to approach things with a new perspective. I think you'll be surprised at how easy things will go then.

My experience: I grew up without God, my parents didn't teach us. Feeling the spirit within was totally foreign. I was given a devestating eye opener, for whatever reason and I started reading, reading, reading. You see I never created my own reality nor visualized anything. I did not even grow up with "dreams" of the future. I rarely even had dreams at night, or at least I didn't remember them.

Well, my big eye opener was when I started visualization exercises. About 10-20 minutes a day, focusing on objects, "becoming the objects". Sounds weird to most people but I cannot tell you the difference! I started having "meaningful dreams" I noticed more of God's work around me, etc. etc. etc.

Think about it we have to "visualize God", we have to make ourselves feel Him and Listen to Him....so why not everything else, I dont follow mediums for pure personal reasons but if you will note ALL mediums were very imaginative since they were little. I think we have to turn in to, and exercise the "muscles" of our mind and spirit. More than just meditating.

I do know that when I stopped my visualization exercises, everything else stopped too. Just my opinion

avoid sex for a while and you ll see ...

ive turned oranges into grapes man..

Paul is on to something...

My other half often points out to me something that may seem so basic, but is often truly the hardest to practice...Love.
Love others as you love yourself...(question is, do we even love ourselves...most of us dont...really.)

Unconditional love is quite a "sacrafice" at first...but as you grow in it, you become more aware of it...the you become aware that you are love...and that you always have been love.

Gods peace

If I may inquire..why were you hypnotised Indigo?

I can relate to your frustration. Sometimes, and for whatever reason, it seems that people who possess psychic *powers* or abilities go through periods of, what I call "a slump". I am not exactly sure why this happens, possibly a period of regeneration? But it happens. And I think it is something that is paramount for a person who has such abilities and wants to maintain strength in such abilities(to go through these slumps). During times such as these, the periods can last for weeks up to months. I think it may depend on how much energy a person has utilised prior to coming to the slump period and possibly how much energy may be required during the next psychic period.

I hope I'm not sounding too vague. But this is all the knowledge I have which is based on either my own experiences, over the years, or from talking to other people who have this same sort of thing happen to them. It is very frustrating when you become used to depending on certain things, to have them seem to vanish over night. I also think many different factors can hinder or block psychic abilities, so it's important to look at the few weeks leading up to this point, look for anything external that may have caused this slump for you.

Another thing I might add..look long and hard into this leader person who booted you out of the group. There ARE people who know exactly how to consume other peoples energy, and this person may be one of them. I'd call these people energynappers. So it's vital to keep yourself protected from external forces at all times.

Your abilities will come back. You will not lose them so to speak, but you will continue to have longer periods such as this if you don't take care of these abilities, such as protection and those required times of regeneration (or giving yourself a rest)
Mags

By leaving oneself open or unprotected, you may also inadvertently consume other peoples energy which may conflict with your own. This obviously can cause many problems, especially if you're consistantly consuming negative energy.

I'd recommend some kind of object or amulet to place as a barrier between yourself and others. Once you become more attuned to your own psychic abilities you can implement stronger sources of protection that come from within yourself.

well..It's obvious that she is a fake...and don't worry about development. Maybe your worried about not making it, so you don't. complete silence is not always the solution. I find that music is a great way to relax. The best type of music in my opinion is music without words....that makes it easier to free your mind. U2U me if this info helped any...i'd like to know how my methods work for others
