What takes place in the mediums mind, body, and spirit during spiritual contact is a sublime dance of the senses. I use the dance reference because it's one of the easiest to explain. Think of it this way, you're with a partner, holding each other, and no one seems to be leading. You're allowing yourselves to move. Both of you close your eyes, and the dance continues — you meld into one. No one is leading yet you sense each other's movements and dance as by one mind. The communication happens on a non-physical level.
Now imagine that your dance partner is on the other side. It can be intoxicating and thrilling, a pure rush of sensation. It's a subtle energy dance between two spirits, one of the spirits (yours) is occupying a physical form and the other spirit is in a dferent dimension. Letting go, closing your eyes — and when your spirit touches theirs , the dance begins. When we use meditation and trance work, we begin to let the structured thought of this dimension fall away and the dance begins.
There are many levels of consciousness; we will be focusing mainly on just one. We will call it the 'spirit plane.' It isn't the only plane where spirits exists but think of it rather as the mezzanine, a simple plane of existence that is very close and almost at the same level as this one.
When we raise our vibration and heighten our state of being we can literally reach up into this 'spirit plane'. The spiritual beings that we're trying to contact actually slow themselves down and lower themselves into this realm and that is when we connect.
Many times we're able to do this without really trying. I've heard many times of spiritual contact when people were driving a car or washing the dishes. During simple chores we often enter into what is called a mindful meditation. When we drop thought and our mind detaches allowing contact to be made.
Imagine someone is trying to communicate with you through a brick wall. You can't see or hear them physically. However you're able to feel them, see images they send telepathically and sometimes on occasion hear words or syllables either through a knowingness or extra sensory perception of the physical ear. Your entire being becomes a receiver for the communication. This is why it's important to hone yourself on a mental, emotional and physical level, because communication comes in all forms. Once you tap into and use all your senses the brick wall becomes so thin that it's transparent.
Conscious living is the first step. Through mental discipline, diet, and exercise this spiritual plane becomes easier to contact. Opening channels to go higher in consciousness allowing our guides, angels, and ancestors to have direct communication. They're always around us through tough times and good; however, they cannot make us receive their communication. Raising our consciousness allows us to receive their messages. It's our responsibility to open our channels and to listen, then decide with our own 'free will'the actions we will take.
There are many types of spiritual communication, but verbal is rare. Verbal communication is only the delivery system for information, it isn't the information. When we speak it's from a root desire to express information. The spoken word is only the vehicle for this information to travel on and then be interpreted. you were blind, the information would travel through sound. you were deaf it would be through the sight of sign language or the feel (touch) of braille.
There are five physical senses and there are seven major energy centers in the body that work directly together bringing forth communication. Each of the five senses: taste, touc h, hearing, sight, a nd smell flow through the seven energy centers: root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye, and crown.
Think of the seven major energy centers as receiving agencies that each of the five senses signal. Co mmunication energy runs through these seven centers to be processed. a friend says, "Hello," you hear "H ello " through your physical ears, but this sound energy also passes through your throat chakra into your mind. During spirit communication a spirit says, "Hello," you may hear the word "H ello, " but it has flowed directly through your throat chakra, bypassing your ears. You hear it clearly, but your neighbor hears nothing.
Clairaudient messages are pretty advanced and not the most common. Often the communications are more subtle. During a reading, the communication enters the body's energy centers for interpretation. Often I will see an image in my third eye as we ll as feel something in my heart (heart chakra) and gut (solar plexus). It's the subtle messages being conveyed in dferent parts of my body that gives me information as well as confirmations.
I have broken down the levels of communication into sections relating to the chakras and physical senses to explain this process on a deeper level.
