Vidente o médium

(En inglés psychic, del griego psyche «alma».) n. Aquél que ha desarrollado sus facultades solares (solar), o del alma (soul), para alcanzar una percepción acrecentada de los cinturones físico, astral, mental y algunas veces etérico de la Tierra y sus evoluciones.

Un vidente o médium ha desarrollado, en esta o en encarnaciones anteriores, facultades de sensibilidad o percepción extrasensorial a las cuales la humanidad en general no tiene acceso. Esto puede incluir estados alterados por encima o por debajo del umbral normal de la conciencia así como la utilización de la computadora de la mente subconsciente o de la supraconsciente. Aunque hay quienes utilizan esas facultades constructivamente con un grado respetable de exactitud, en muchos casos la información, así como la discriminación que se hace de ella, no son fiables.

En su acepción como «paranormal» (adj.), el término se ha venido utilizando como sinónimo de «astral» en su contexto negativo, y se refiere a la penetración y a la manipulación de la energía en el nivel del plano astral. Según los Maestros Ascendidos, aquél que ha comprometido sus energías con los fenómenos paranormales está funcionando en el plano astral inferior. Así, por los fuertes lazos establecidos con las entidades de las octavas inferiores, retrasa el día de su verdadero desarrollo espiritual y de ser uno con la Divinidad.

A la inversa, cuando es uno con Dios a través de la percepción directa de las octavas más altas, puede obtener beneficios espirituales para su alma en el plano etérico (mundo celestial), al viajar en su envoltura etérica por los retiros de los Maestros Ascendidos de la Gran Hermandad Blanca y a las ciudades y templos de luz que se localizan en ese plano. La verdadera maestría espiritual no se mide por la clarividencia o los fenómenos paranormales sino por el control divino del fuego sagrado del corazón y el discipulado en el sendero del Amor.

Psychic activities

The things that fall into the category of the psychic include dealing with spirits and spiritualism; automatic writing; involvement with UFOs; and methods of divination such as “worldly” astrology, tarot, the pendulum and Ouija boards.

Lord Maitreya explains that involvement in the psychic is always a detour from the path of spiritual attainment:

The veil within the human temple must be rent in twain. The veil of illusion must part, and by initiation Reality will shine forth.

Beware, however, of the penalty for engaging in automatic writing, in psychic activity and in all of those things that are contrary to ascended master law. Take heed that you understand that there is no need for man to do these things that tie in to the psychic world. The Ouija board and many of these other activities bring mankind downward. I tell you, there are few upon the planet who understand how to operate the cards of the tarot.

You ought to understand, then, that the safest and best journey [course] for the elect is under the direction of the ascended masters. It teaches you how you ought to study their words and to pray unto them, to call unto them, to seek initiation, to be a real person, to be a divine person, to activate the flow of cosmic energy within your forcefields by sounding the Word, by humming the majestic concept of the living Christ, by feeling the surge of the resurrection current, by entering in to the power within the Holy of holies of your own being.

Men do not have to go outside themselves to find salvation, for the kingdom of heaven is within you. And that kingdom that is within you is our kingdom.

Lord Maitreya gave further teaching on these activities in a letter of July 1, 1986:

I would mention the dispensation of astrology, tarot, palmistry, and the I Ching as systems introduced in various periods of history under teacher adepts who had the correct alignment with the inner law. With the passage of time and the increasing enlightenment of the planetary body through the intercession of Saint Germain, these systems through misuse have embodied the vibrations of the astral plane and false teachers who have used them for the influence and control of their pupils and followers. This is why we have forbidden our students to use these systems, except under our direction, sponsorship, and enlightenment.

Of the named, astrology has been pointed out as a key when given and received without fear, superstition, or a sense of unalterable predestination. Nevertheless, some of our students have become caught in the trap of placing too much attention upon their astrology and not enough on their I AM Presence, giving too much weight to the predictions of the planets, and not enough to the preponderance of the Light of the Holy Christ Self and the Great White Brotherhood. In the case of the I Ching, it is unreliable due to its misuse by the false hierarchy.
