It is great to be able to communicate with others from all over the world too. Yes it is cool. Yes technology is great when it is working.
Sometimes I can smell perfume around the house, but it is not my perfume. I try to work out where it is coming from but cannot.
Sometimes I can see when something is going to happen. A picture pops into my head and I see what is going to happen, sometimes it is my inner voice saying be careful don't do that.
Just wondering how to develop these senses more.
As my respected colleagues have also told you while regular practise never makes perfect it is the most effective way to safely develop your spiritual abilities or senses.
Actually the whole idea of developing your spiritual senses is a bit of a misnomer, as the senses belong to your spirit body and are already as developed as they will ever be, whether or not you are presently incarnate and temporarily using a physical body to interact with and move around this physical world.
Thus developing in this context means that you are doing what is required of you to become more aware of the information coming to you through these senses as well as to increase your sensitivity to the psychic information, and to better discern the difference between what is genuine and what on the other hand is only the product of your imagination, fantasy or wishful thinking.
In order get extra assistance with developing your psychic/spiritual abilities in addition to you attending a regular weekly development group or circle in your local area, I still cannot go past recommending the no nonsense practical approach used by the MIT trained scientist Pete A. Sanders, Jr. in his book "You Are Psychic!" 1989 [Fawcett Columbine]
There is no mention in this book of seance rooms and floating trumpets as well as some of the other more esoteric approaches to expanding your psychic powers, but instead a series of clearly explained instructions for doing this both in private and as part of a group of students. And it is written by a scientist who is fully trained in the use of the scientific method, and who is therefore less likely to be labelled by the general public as being mentally unbalanced or a psychic fanatic or fraud.
For example you may or may not know that a gut feeling happens because the main psychic centre for clairsentience or psychic feeling is located in the area of our solar plexus. There are two more minor centres to be found on the palms of each of our hands (used during contact healing to locate the part of the body which needs treatment)), but by far most of our clairsentient impressions arrive through our "gut".
The solar plexus is roughly half way between our diaphragm at the base of our rib cage and our navel (belly button) on the mid line. We can consequently increase our sensitivity to any psychic input by purposely and regularly focussing our attention on the area which is believed to be the main psychic antenna for that specific type of impression.
By continually and methodically concentrating your attention on the solar plexus psychic energy centre or chakra you cannot become more clairsentient than you or all of us already are since we all possess a spiritual body with its own senses, but you can definitely increase your sensitivity and discernment significantly.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members who have and will contribute to my inaugural discussion thread, after I was made a moderator on this forum. I am really impressed by the intelligent and friendly exchange of personal stories and knowledge used so far, and I hope that this will continue.
Things have moved exceptionally slow on most of the especially non reading forums of recent times (on many days there are no new posts on any forum), but I sense (there is that word again) that this discussion at least is finally moving along at a healthy and interesting pace as I originally intended it to when I posted it at the end of January. Greatly helped in this positive direction by the ongoing support which I am receiving from other readers and moderators and other valued internet friends. This is very humbling.
Thanks everyone.
Please keep up the good work.
Yours appreciatively,
