Let's take a phenomenon such as channeling. I personally, as far as I am consciously aware, have never experienced such a thing. That is, receiving thoughts from a spiritual source other than my own. Do you believe in this phenomenon? Do you believe that the spirits of "people" such as Jesus and St Germain are constantly present in spirit, as lightbeings, and that we are receiving messages from these beings regularly? There seems to be a wide range of people present here who don't show much sceptisism to the channelings given by certain other people on these lists. I wonder, have you experienced something that gives you a reason to believe that these channelings are 100% authentic? As a seeker, I feel like questioning these things. When I read a message, such as the one from Armendeus, it has a certain effect on me. I think the word discernment has been mentioned before. I have, as of yet, no reason to believe in any of these channelings. But still, I choose to believe in them, because they fill me with excitement, joy and hope for the "future". This is the effect on anyone who reads a channeled message. But I also find it difficult to live in the "moment". And when I've finished writing this, I may not feel the same about these words I've written, and may choose not to post them. Often, when I do things, like washing the car or cleaning things, I get these interesting ideas, and I find myself discussing with myself. It's like I imagine sitting in a conferance in a TV-studio, discussing these fascinating subjects.
