channeling?

In reply to Temmie/ or anyone - about channeling, posted by habbyshabit on July 1, 2003, at 23:41:39

When you do this channeling, are your thoughts centered on Christ or some other figure? Does this have anything to do with a particular religion (pardon me if this has been explained in an earlier post, as I haven't caught up)

A lot of things fascinate me, particularly things of the mind. I believe most miracles that take place work through natural means, we just don't understand the processes. God works through natural laws to accomplish his purposes. It only makes sense that man is capable of discovering many, if not all the natural laws. I'm rambling, but what I think I am trying to say is just because a natural law is discovered by man does not mean it has an automatic connection to God. God works through natural combined with spiritual laws, and his gifts are granted according to desire and obedience to his eternal unchangable laws. A favorite scripture of mine, "there is a law irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world upon which all blessings are predicated. And when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated.

Satan also believes in and works through natural law, but abuses it to fulfill his evil designs.

I suppose I do what you label channeling too. In fact I am quite good at it. Approaching mania when I am soaring, I am really good at it.

I like my moods. When I feel a severe one lurking I now take a handful of supplements (if necessary), and that usually gets me back on track again. I am trying really hard to let the spiritual side heal me by trying to be obedient to God's commandments as I understand them. I make a lot of mistakes, but by partaking weekly of His sacrament, I am able to begin each week with a clean slate and work from there. At least that's what is in my heart and soul.

I looked up a book that was recommended in an earlier post "The Waking Dream" I believe in the language of not so many words, and view the world symbolically. I have great respect for the ancient native american culture and feel that so much of their precious language has been lost. My passion is in this culture for some reason. I want to learn as much about it as I can, but not from books, from being in it, in my mind.
