<I do not consider myself a psychic. I don't like the term "psychic," and fundamentally, whether or not one has abilities is not the important thing.>
I believe that many people, especially women, are often psychic from birth. At least, that was the environment I grew up in, and it was actually quite rare to find a woman who was not psychic. Men, on the other hand, tended to be less sensitive, less understanding, and focused primarily on tangible, physical things. However, most women were believed to be naturally psychic.
However, it seems that in the world, psychic abilities are often given special attention, and they are treated as if they are something amazing. But from what I have observed, the patterns of people who are called "psychic" are often as follows:
・They were not very perceptive as children, relying only on physical sensations, and lacked spiritual abilities and senses.
・They develop a slight ability later in life, due to various reasons.
And they mistakenly believe that this slight ability is something amazing. In most cases, this is what I have observed.
People who have strong intuition from childhood know that such intuition is not always reliable or 100% accurate. However, people who only recently started to have some intuition as adults tend to mistake that unreliable intuition as if it were 100% and absolutely true. This is because they have less experience in reconciling their intuition with reality. However, people who were not perceptive as children would have had many such experiences from childhood. Because they were not perceptive as children, they tend to make mistakes later in life.
In reality, people who are perceptive from childhood do not call their intuition "psychic" or anything like that. They simply think that their intuition is working, and they know that it is not 100% accurate, so they study diligently in schools and other places to improve its accuracy. And because they are often highly capable, they tend to go to good universities. That is the truth. While there are certainly hardworking people who achieve success through effort, people who are naturally psychic, have strong intuition, and have excellent memory are more likely to go to good universities.
And people who mistakenly believe that they are psychic later in life tend to have lower life skills, lower work abilities, and lower understanding. Ultimately, being "psychic" is correlated with studying and being intelligent.
If someone is truly psychic from birth, they are intelligent, excel in their studies, and attend a good university. That is the basic principle.
However, there are various types of psychic abilities. While some abilities are inherent, others, like those of a medium who relies on spirit guides, are different. In the latter case, the ability is more dependent on the guides than on the individual themselves, so what seems like the individual's intuition is actually the intuition of the guides.
In reality, it is often difficult to distinguish between the two, especially at first. Generally, lower-level intuitions are often inaccurate, while higher-level intuitions are often correct but vague. In either case, there is always some ambiguity. Therefore, people who are naturally intelligent tend to use these intuitions as mere reference information and logically deduce a true understanding.
In that sense, whether or not someone is psychic is not really the issue. What matters is that when intuition arises, it is followed by logical reasoning. This is a perfectly normal process.
In reality, the term "psychic" is often misunderstood by some, leading to cult-like beliefs that claim that if someone is psychic, they are 100% correct. In such environments, for example, followers might spread everything said by a "YouTube guru" based on intuition as 100% true. In such cases, the term "psychic" becomes associated with cults. For the person who made the statement, this is a terrible situation. If their intuition is considered 100% correct, they cannot even refute it. Moreover, in such situations, the "YouTube guru" often makes statements based on intuition without providing any evidence. This forces the person who was affected to provide counter-evidence to refute the claim, but the "YouTube guru" simply makes excuses or avoids responsibility, making the entire situation pointless and a waste of time. Therefore, it is best to avoid making statements based on intuition. It causes trouble for the person who is told.
In reality, many people are psychic. Surprisingly, there are many people who read other people's thoughts and pass them off as their own. Even today, the purpose of socializing and communicating with others, such as at a drinking party, is to extract the thoughts of others.
Therefore, psychic abilities can be problematic in many situations, and people with such abilities are often disliked.
There are many people who admire such psychic abilities. For example, some claim to have the ability to read other people's thoughts, and indeed, there are many such people. However, in most cases, they cannot read the deeper thoughts, and simply become hysterical and mentally unstable because they think they have read other people's thoughts. If such hysteria occurs, is such a psychic ability really necessary? If you hear other people's thoughts in that way, it is not in line with proper spiritual evolution. Simply focusing on abilities will eventually lead to mental breakdown. This is because they prioritize abilities over spiritual development, and in the process of specializing in abilities, their minds burn out, causing confusion and leading them to become social outcasts. Many people who seem to have abilities but are hysterical or lack humanity prioritize abilities, which is why they become that way.
There is a similar but different story. Focusing on abilities can easily lead to mental breakdown, but focusing on energy leads to the right direction. By recognizing the height and depth of vibrations, and focusing on what is low or high in vibration, and the strength and weakness of energy, it will be different from the ability-focused approach that simply aims to increase abilities and read thoughts.
In reality, there are techniques in spiritual practices, and if you specialize in the technique of reading other people's thoughts, it is relatively easy to do. This is done using lower-level auras, which share the karma of others, and thus are influenced by the karma of the other person. Lower-level auras are sticky and extract thoughts from the aura, ether, or astral realms. The etheric realm is close to the body and carries karma, but it also receives emotions. The astral realm is closer to karma and receives both karma and emotions. Reading the cause (karma) is quite difficult, but in that case, it seems that you are less affected by karma and can use the cause for learning. However, when simply listening to other people's thoughts or feeling their emotions in the etheric or astral realms, they are usually affected by karma. Therefore, I do not recommend using techniques to read other people's thoughts. There are people who teach techniques that involve extending and connecting one's own aura to others without understanding what they are doing, which is not recommended because it shares karma, and the person who is read also receives the karma of the person who read them, which is a nuisance to the person who is read.
If, by chance, such an aura contact is considered an attack, the person involved may be attacked, even if they did not intend to attack. Spiritual attacks and counterattacks are frightening, and it is possible to be subjected to spells that can last for several months, years, or even a lifetime. It is also possible to have one's spiritual abilities blocked without being able to remove the spell. This varies depending on the case, but basically, once something is broken, it is difficult to repair, and even if it can be repaired, it takes time. Moreover, the information obtained by taking such risks may not be correct, and it often contains superficial information, far from true understanding. The risks and rewards do not match. Therefore, it is better not to easily interfere with others. The frivolous desire to read other people's thoughts and admire psychic abilities can be interesting in casual conversations, but it is better not to take it seriously. I think it is more helpful for spiritual growth to study normally. It is important not to yearn for psychic abilities. People who are naturally psychic are like that from the beginning, and all psychic people are like that, while those who are not psychic are not psychic, so there is no point in envying what you don't have. Whether a naturally psychic person realizes that "you shouldn't rely solely on intuition" and starts studying depends on their intelligence. People who live solely on intuition are either very intuitive or have poor intelligence, and most of them realize that intuition alone is not enough and start studying normally.
When talking about spiritual and psychic abilities, it is generally better not to engage with them.
This is not intended to ridicule spiritual beginners, but because there are rampant spiritual businesses that prey on spiritual beginners with high-priced courses.
There are spiritual businesses that give something like an "experience" to spiritual beginners, making them mistakenly believe that it is something "amazing," and then extort large sums of money. In order to raise awareness of the current situation where such malicious practices are prevalent, I think it is better to inform spiritual beginners in advance that such a minor "experience" is not important. By acquiring knowledge from the beginning, you can avoid the foolishness of spending an unreasonable amount of money, such as 50,000 yen, 100,000 yen, or 250,000 yen or more on malicious seminars.
However, in this world, there is a certain degree of variation in IQ, and there is also a variation in the ownership of money. Therefore, even if someone has a lower IQ, if they have some money, they might inadvertently end up participating in this kind of seminar. So, if the person doesn't understand and makes a mistake, there's nothing we can do about it. It might be a futile effort to tell them.
Surprisingly, there are many terrible businesses that target beginners interested in spirituality, which praise them, make them feel good, and make them mistakenly believe that they have achieved something.
When I talk about these things, I sometimes receive aggressive letters from beginners who have gained a little ability and are mistaken. In reality, pointing out cults is a thankless task. It's pointless to get involved, and even pointing it out is in vain. If we were to say nothing and let them spend a lot of money on their own, it might be better for us, but there's also the aspect that if more people are mistaken about cults, that becomes a problem. So, it's a difficult situation.
It's annoying when there are people around who participate in seminars with slogans like "the best of everything" and end up being mistaken. Things like "teachings that exist nowhere else in the world" or "ancient teachings." These kinds of slogans are often used for things that are not truly what they claim to be, and the people involved are often mistaken and genuinely believe it, which is the nature of cults.
