I posted this today on my website. I was thinking of those like Stanley who have experienced trouble with Spiritual Communication. Perhaps it will help future readers who struggle to materialize what they see.

Problems with Spiritual Communication:

I run across folks who say, “I am just not good at…[ ]…”I don’t believe I can….[ ]…”, “I’ve tried and I cant make it work. I don’t understand”

I think they are closer to being in touch with consciously creating their reality than they realize. To say these phrases implies a certain amount of inherent Faith on their part that what they desire is possible but that due to their beliefs that it’s unlikely to happen. Faith will only carry you as far as belief can manifest. Faith is a form of visualization. It follows belief. You can not manifest your reality unless you can see yourself in it. It is a conscious acknowledgement of belief. It is the feeling visualized. Although, how in depth this is expressed can vary greatly and is always expressed in degree that one’s belief is understood. The degree one identifies with this belief will sustain or dissolve how much feeling one associates with any manifested reality.

All this is to simply say that Spiritual communication entails a great deal of visualization based on beliefs. To have faith that Spiritual communication is possible is not enough to make it likely to happen. When what you believe is understood you can re-examine yourself to see if it is an accurate representation of your reality. If your reality includes Spiritual communication then the faith in your ability to visualize and communicate will never be in question. It will just be a matter of fact. What remains then will be a matter of learning to understand and master the experience as opposed to reconnecting with something you lack.

Visualization is akin to imagination only in degree that that you associate it with your personal reality. Just because what you imagine is something you desire or not, does not mean that it lacks validity or realness. The associations made in cooperation with your mind are not limited to a series of bio-electrical signals in a physical dimension. All thought comes from Spiritual dimensions and so it’s context is valid regardless of what belief you assign it. Where people get hung up is in their desire to manifest. Just because you desire something doesn’t mean it will manifest. What manifests will be dependent on how you visualize your beliefs. Don’t like it? Then examine your beliefs and put the time and energy into visualizing new ones.

That said, I’d like to share a visualization technique I’ve found useful and enjoyable. I am not sure what to call it.
At various points in my life I’ve felt the fear that I was loosing the ability to remember my departed loved one’s or places from childhood I treasured. This was especially true at my grandparents funeral when I knew their house had been sold off. I lamented that I would never see them or it again. I worried that I would not be able to hold the events, experiences and settings in my mind.

So what I did was to picture myself standing in my grandparents house. No one expect myself was there. It was in the middle of the day. I imagined myself to be from a time where I had felt fond memories of them and my time there. I then closed my eyes and sat somewhere quiet, where I wouldn’t be distracted or disturbed. Somewhere where I had a good half hour to be undisturbed. In my mind, I pictured myself slowly walking from room to room. I walked around each room and looked as close as I could to each and every part of it. I looked at the carpet, I studied how it felt, looked. I gazed at the color, texture of the furniture. I looked at the dust on the shelves, at the way the light hit the walls. I studied all the decor and then thought about how I was feeling as I was doing this. As I worked at this I found I could get better at it and recall more and more. I also found that I could do this with other rooms from my childhood. Rooms in my own home, rooms in my church, school and outdoors. Then I tried it with people. I also used photos to help me get started. I’d start with their hair, move down their skin and study all the parts of their skin. I visualized how they smelt, and that lead me to recalling how they sounded. I guess I’d call this technique, “The slow imaginative lingering gaze”. I’ve even used this in clairvoyant experiences. Where I cease all desire for communication in lieu of slowly gazing at what I could see. Lingering on detail. Letting go of any desire to understand the realness of the experience and simply surrendering to looking. Not worrying about truth and simply letting myself give into the feel of quietly looking.

When you can allow yourself to quietly look, you will be able to feel what you visualize. What you experience is only limited by faith in your imagination. What you can imagine will always be ruled by what you believe about yourself in any experienced reality. Examine what you believe and you can understand what you Spiritually communicate.
