Mood:
I have been given this question from time to time from new investigators –
Q “Am I not special enough to experience anything Paranormal, like the other investigators?”
A “Everyone is special enough, everyone is psychic. Many people have not learned to distinguish the difference between there own energy and thoughts and the energies of spirit.
The number one thing to do if you want to experience paranormal phenomena / spiritual experiences, is to meditate. For some people, their life is a meditation. Some people without even realizing it go in and out of a meditative state or a trance without intentionally initiating it. These people may have numerous paranormal experiences and they don’t recognize them as such. This could even be the same person raising the above question, “Am I not special enough to..”
More on the subject:
It can be a very fast transition for most people, if they begin meditations. Guided meditations are very effective for demonstrating to people that they have the ability to open up and experience the subtle energies we encounter during ghost hunting or a paranormal investigation.
Many of these energies can be very subtle. A sensitive person, psychic or one experienced with meditation, can distinguish the energies of spirit.
Many of these energies can be very strong as well and even the strongest skeptic or strongest science guy of the group will experience things tough to understand scientifically. Usually, I find that strong skeptic can make the best psychic. Too bad they deny it, although usually not for long. I just use the skeptic as a psychic without telling them sometimes because it can be so much fun when they don’t even know they are doing it. Once they realize they too are developing sensitivities they didn't realize they had, it can change so many hard core belief systems they have had for so long that it can be traumatic even. They are on a journey with the rest of us.
Why can this occur with a skeptic? Because it occurs with everyone, it is a natural ability everyone has. I am quite aware of this and when I am out in a public place, or at work, or where ever and over hear conversations between friends and even between strangers, I hear how intuitive people can be and it always astounds me that they don’t recognize it. It is very very special indeed!
