The Paranormal Vs the Spiritual

As a spiritual healer I meet people who want me to teach them how to astral travel, move objects with their minds', see into the future, etc.  These people are into the glitz and glamour of spirituality and not what I consider real spirituality, true spirituality.  They want an experience of higher realms and consciousness, but sometimes not from the place of being connected and known, more from the place of being special and important.  Their quest into the paranormal is as if they are saying, "Look at me.  Look what I can do.  Look what I know.  Ain't I mysterious and grand?"  

Yes, learning how to astral travel and see into potential futures can open people up to a deeper relationship with themselves, others and higher consciousness or it can be a distraction just like smoking, drinking, sugar and sex. In my opinion, the only reason to venture outside of this reality, this realm, this consciousness is to learn how to be happier, more satisfied with life, yourself  and others.  Why be in this reality if the goal is to know other realities?  

I have witnessed people taking on the paranormal as a hobby, an interest, not a way to get to know the truth of who and what they are.  Its a shame, since many of these people are being calling, but get stuck in something less.

Consider if you interested in the paranormal or the spiritual

Spiritual and Theta Healing and the Paranormal

As a Spiritual/Theta Healer I meet many people interested in the paranormal.  They want to astral travel, talk to the dead, move objects with their mind, know the future, etc.  While these experiences/skills can open people up to a new and improved relationship with themselves and life, they can at the same time be distractions.  

I have met some incredibly enlightened beings and for the most part they are unassuming--think, small Indian woman wrapped in a silk.  

If having super skills were equivalent to enlightenment than enlightened beings would show up more like super heroes: flying through the air, moving objects with their mind and bi-locating.

Don't get me wrong astral travel, telekinesis, knowing the future and the like are very cool, but the only reason to get involved with them is to test what you think is true about how the universe works.  The experience of knowing the future of being conscious of leaving your body can open people to knowing in a very real way what you thought was real and solid is not that real.
