About Clairvoyance and Spiritual Healing:

By Vivienne Tobassa Eggers, Sumer Tara Blue Lotus

Clairvoyance in the context of psychic awareness loosely describes elevated extra sensory perception, often the term that consolidates all psychic attributes such as clairaudience and clairsentience.  Clairvoyance is the "seeing" element of psychic awareness. An opening of sensitivity and awareness to enable a person to perceive psychically - subtle energies that are beyond what is currently accepted as the "norm" for human society.  In reality, what the norm is experientially and what it is in "mainstream" society, is quite divergent.  In other words humans, as animals are naturally instinctively psychic - and without the trappings, distractions and desensitisation of modern living, synthetic chemicals, noise pollution, and "progress" technology we might all possess heightened awareness of the "unseen" and subtle knowings beyond the veil - and indeed do so in moments, and flashes of inspiration or dreams from time to time.

With the knowledge that clairvoyance or psychic ability is innate in all man, one can quite easily decipher that to be clairvoyant does NOT require one to be spiritual.  Yet this is only true to a certain degree.  When one accesses and applies psychic ability, their container or limiting constraints are their own belief systems and intellectual truth.  In ancient Goddess, Huna and yogic systems, Christianity and Buddhism the path of spiritual realisation is taught as the focus of intention.  With the evolution of this consciousness, psychic awareness will naturally evolve.  This coincides with opening of what are called siddis or knowledge keys located at the energy chakra points of the "tree of life" in the human being.  With spiritual realisation, the quality of psychic ability surpasses anything attainable through means of lower dimension, instinct and without enlightened empowerment.

Whether you believe in reincarnation or not, there are those who are born unto this earth with a higher consciousness and psychic awareness from birth.  These gifts are held as spiritual potential, just as physically some are born with the gifts of athletic or intellectual brilliance.  Our modern society in first world or western culture has greatly discredited the spiritual incarnate - quite possibly as it has been difficult for a system to control - just who will be born with this privilege, unlike those of wealth and society who may foster their young into similar professions and economic favour.  Yet, to the artist, the great Muse is not forgotten, and the psychic and spiritual advocate has held a place with the creative "dreamers" in our world.  

In the dawn of a new age spiritual era, the fusion of religious and spiritual practices has exploded into a DIY plethora of systems and teachings for developing and building psychic ability, practising spiritual healing and the path to self enlightenment is freely taught.  Most of these systems are based on much older scriptures and culture - the face-lift and application of a new concept or new age twist enables the marketer the opportunity to turn the system into a financial profit making opportunity.  There may be less harsh judgement on the healing system inventor when we consider the operation in a western capitalist context - they are simply developing within the system itself.  It is up to us to understand that if the origins of Drisana and Reiki have been adapted from Tibetan Bonn and Shamanic healing practices and remodelled in a way that is marketable in the west - we may still benefit from the healing that is focused from using that system as a therapeutic tool.  With Spiritual Healing - there can be no judgement on technique or tool usage - there is no one "real" method.  No amount of expense and training will qualify a Healer.  Only the power of their focus and healing ability.  For this reason, how can a true Healer be accredited?

What can be taught is the client relationship and counselling, the therapist approach to practice, risk management and medical and therapeutic implications of the healing experience.  You will find the best healers have spent many years learning many modalities from all over the world and combining these skills in a unique approach that "works" for them.  With all this background and experience - should we question the charge of a Spiritual Healer?  Do we question the charge of a Doctor?  Some Spiritual Healers are both.   It is very much up to the individual, the value they put on a spiritual experience.  Many will think nothing of paying $100,000 for a car.  Should they value any less a Spiritual Healer who may help them to change and evolve, even save their life? 

In ancient times, a Spiritual Healer might be supported by community - and not require to earn financially.  They would be appreciated and lavished with gifts from those they supported.  Now, the Spiritual Healer lives in the same society as all others.  They have the right to be abundantly rewarded for their years of training, skill and experience - and ability - just as all other professionals do.  If that Healer is truly on a path of spiritual evolution, their ability will be a testament that they can do nothing else but live sustainably and give back of their good fortune.  Finding a Spiritual Healer or validating a Spiritual Healer is up to you.  If you do not feel comfortable, find somebody whom you trust and believe in - just as you would do with a Doctor or Dentist.  Ultimately the learning and growing process will also be the result of the law of attraction and your will - your clarity with what you are seeking and the level of belief you have that it can truly manifest.

With faith, all miracles are possible.
