Spiritual Guidance From The Other Side: 7 Tips To Connect And Receive Insight

The expectation or hope of dramatic, obviousncontact with a spiritual guide or guides too oftennleads to disappointment. Much emphasis has beennplaced on spirit guide contact by many spiritualnauthors, but frankly, we believe your higher-selfnshould receive more attention.

Below are seven tips for gaining authentic spiritualnguidance.

1. It’s very important to note that not all “guides”noffer absolute truth and wisdom just because theynare not in a physical body. Some have strong biasesnand may not be objective with their advice to you.

It’s easy to mistake a disinca
ate soul (someonenwho died but did not go to “the Light” for a varietynof reasons) or a mischievous or dark entity for an“guide.” If the guide offers input that soundsnimpartial or prejudiced in any way, doesn’t feelnuplifting or of a higher vibration, or feels negativenand gives negative sounding advice (e.g., tellingnyou to do something that would incur karma),ndemand that it leave and ask for spiritual cleansingnhelp from whomever you pray to.

For example, if you make contact through a ouijanboard, pendulum, or some other means with annenergy who claims to have been someone famous,nsuch as Elvis, be wary. Even if it really is andeceased, famous personality, there is nonguarantee that the information imparted will bentruthful and non-subjective. Besides, it’s commonnfor dark entities to play such games.

2. Everyone perceives spiritual guidance differently.
Some hear (clairaudience), some see (clairvoyance),nsome just know (claircognizance), some feeln(clairsentience), some taste or smell, and some nexperience various combinations or all of the above n(clair-all). This is true with past life recall also. Ifnyou just know or feel, you may not directly hear ornsee your guides or past lives.

Although you may very well have one (or more)nmain guardian angel or guide, it’s likely that mostnpeople are not supposed to have a consistent, direct,nconscious link to him or her while inca
ated. Why, nyou ask? If you could pick up your spiritualntelephone and had an invisible, on-call advisor tongive you direct answers, 100% sure-fire directionnany time you needed it, this would be cheating;nyou would not learn the lessons you’ve inca
atednto experience.

Furthermore, we agree that help from angels of thenLight and ascended master guides is available tonmany, but the insight you receive may be so subtlenthat you won’t be able to identify much about thensource, other than to know that it feels genuine andnpure.

3. It’s entirely possible, in our opinion, that manynpeople have created, in their mind, a name and imagenof the helpful spiritual energy they call their guide.
We don’t see anything wrong with this, as long as it’snonly to identify the energy.

4. We don’t feel that associating a name withnspiritual insight or discovering the name of a guidenis important because it may not always be a guidenfrom which you are deriving information, and it’sneasy to become dependent on a guide.

5. Receiving outside help is great when needed, butnrelying on yourself as much as possible in meditationnby connecting with your subconscious mind and you
higher-self is usually best. Your subconscious mind isnwhere all past and present life memories are stored,nalong with all fears and defenses. Your higher-self isnalso your link to your super-conscious, or all that is.
Some say it’s a direct connection to God, you
god-self.

6. If you meditate regularly and connect with you
higher-self, you will have all the help you need, whichnmay sometimes include the help of other-dimensionalnguides of the Light. All you have to do is focus on thendilemma or question, and if you are meant to know thenanswer, you will know it, when you are meant tonrealize it, one way or another.

Through years of practicing meditation, we regularlynreceive flashes of insight and the answers to questionsnby detaching just enough from the conscious mind tonallow higher-self insight to flow to the doorstep ofnconsciousness. Sometimes it seems as if the answersnare waiting there for us to perceive.

7. Meditation is so important for self-awareness andnstress reduction. Develop and practice it as a regula
discipline and you will benefit in many ways,nincluding receiving regular spiritual guidance andnthe ability to disce
cosmic noise from divineninsight.

In summary, we believe it’s to your advantage to putnaside the desire to commune with specific spiritualnguides and instead focus on becoming or remainingngrounded and centered, and accessing your inne
awareness and your higher-self.
