In spiritualist circles one is often asked by novices faced with the initial ’perceiving’ of spirit, and interested parties alike, how can I/you trust what I/you receive by intuition? How do I/you know what is real? The answer is to believe in one’s self, learn to tell the difference between tricks of the eye/mind and illusions, and actual intuition. Never engage in self delusion.
Self Delusion – the act of deceiving one’s self about some aspect of reality! Why would you do it? - to follow the crowd - to escape from reality - to try and impress others - to seek glory Why you should not do it! - you mislead others and yourself - you make others uncomfortable - you block you own progress - you incur negative side effects, mistrust, ridiculeUltimate lesson…
Do not engage in self-delusional acts as this leads to a downward spiral of negative effects. When one accepts this concept, one becomes free of such negative effects and then, uninhibited, is more capable of receiving the true energies of enlightenment.
