While I do believe in the validity of the concept of channeling, I find that I have mixed feelings when it comes to many channels. I just find it difficult to know who is having an authentic experience, who is putting us on and who is just nuts. Have you ever heard of "Aranya and the Pixies"? http://www.seanet.com/~waltc/page4.html Same kinda thing I guess. I once knew a guy who swore by thier teachings...he turned out to be a total fraud. Still, with the amount of importance I put in channelings from people like Neale Walsch and Jane Roberts, I suppose I'm not in a position to judge people who believe in these "other worldly higher being" types. Afterall, there have been many times where I felt like this "Mercury" character was taking on a life of his own...through me. Still, it never reached the point where I could see a definite line between where I stopped and he began. On the other hand, I am a "creative professional" in the field of communications, and I have often described what I do as "channeling" because when I'm on top of my game, its like I'm running on automatic. Looks like this feeling is something of a theme in this room. Even our Christian friend Ray has experiences with it. So perhaps we should dig a little deeper. Is this a function of our mental illness? Or is this something real? I suspect that its both.
I wonder Habby, do you think that Arlon would be willing to make an appearance in this forum? I'd like to ask a few questions.
