What is Channeling?— Most Common Questions Answered
Let’s Settle the Misconception About Spiritual Channeling
About three years ago, I had a lot of misconceptions about spiritual channeling, something which was blocking me from being able to channel. In general, there are lots of misunderstandings and dogmas about channeling. This is why I decided to write about channeling to clear out these misconceptions and answer most questions asked about channeling.
First, let’s find common ground by defining what channeling is.
Channeling by definition is to direct towards a particular end. The word channel is cognate to the word canal. This is because the actual meaning originated in the act of creating a shallow path to direct water from the larger body of water to somewhere else.
If you understand that statement clearly, then a lot of misconceptions will be halved by it. Maybe you want to first understand how channeling works.
The mechanics of channeling.
Once you understand what is actually happening during a channeling session, it is easy to know what you are doing. The majority of people do not understand what is happening during channeling.
The first principle of channeling is vibrations, while the second is tuning or resonation. If you saw tuning forks, you will understand that tuning forks of the same frequency resonate. It is the same principle when it comes to channeling, though there are some exceptions depending on different levels and types of channeling.
By simply holding thoughts of a certain pattern or frequency, you are automatically attracting thoughts of similar frequencies, and therefore channeling similar frequencies. It is really that simple.
Now let’s dive into what spiritual channeling is. The same way you create a channel or canal from a larger body of water towards a specific location, it is exactly the same way a person channels. That you connect to infinite intelligence to get answers about a specific topic. In other words, you are channeling a canal from the ocean of infinite intelligence towards your questions, needs, etc.
Now you may wonder what happens to those who channel specific beings or entities?
The answer to this is simply that, in the myriads of cosmic or infinite intelligence, within it lies all types of beings. These beings are on par with the same type of frequency a person tunes into, and they are there whenever you need their assistance.
Channeling is not limited to only communicating with entities, but it encompasses all types of telepathic communication with anything and the retrieval of information telepathically. The only difference is the methods, as something like remote viewing is also a channeling of information. So, under the hood, the mechanism is the same. It could be mediumship, past life regression, dowsing hypnosis, remote viewing, and so on. Despite the differences in names and methods, the mechanism is the same.
Different levels and types of channeling.
Imagine you have a water puddle surrounded by mud. In this puddle, you can simply use your finger to create a very narrow passage of water and let the water escape. So, imagine using even a smaller item like a blade of grass to let a very small amount of water flow away from the water puddle. These are different levels and types of channeling as channeling depends on the type of medium and the capacity to allow information or energy to flow through it.
Different levels of channeling are dependent on the type of person and their level of consciousness. Here I will explain the common types of channeling.
Conscious channeling
An individual can perform a channeling session when they are awake, and most of the time they have full control over the information they are channeling. This type of channeling is actually more common than most people realize. Also, a person can either channel through speaking or writing.
Artists, writers, preachers, motivational speakers, and so on, do use this type of channeling without even knowing they are channeling. Even when someone is journaling, they channel without knowing it because is as natural as thinking.
You will find people asking, “How did he think of that?” or “Where does this person find all these words?”
The limitation of this type of channeling is accuracy because as you channel your conscious and logical mind tends to interfere. However, through self-discipline and practice, a person eventually learns to discern what is original information and his own mental noise.
Telepathic transmission channeling
Usually, this type of channeling is related to telepathy transmission of messages, where a person receives information without requesting or even trying to send any messages. These types of transmissions are mostly related to updates, warnings, predictions, and so forth.
You will find this in a lot of new age circles. In these circles, people receive messages of encouragement, inspiration, and even gestures to show them that they are marching in the right direction.
Sometimes these messages are distress calls from Extraterrestrials, yes distress calls. Some beings may be caught in a vortex of negative energies, where they send out distress calls asking for group meditations, prayers, and such. This is to weaken the forces trying to suffocate them.
These types of transmissions are usually very brief and come without a warning. This is because someone will simply get a bolt of inspiration in their mental space and feel the need to write it down or talk about it.
Distant memory channeling
People have mistakenly thought they were channeling something else, only to find out that they were just accessing their distant memories. In these memories, they describe everything in detail, only to discover that it was a memory of a distant event they witnessed.
A person would have to undergo a hypnosis regression or meditate in order to be able to tune into those distant events and remember them all. The interesting fact is that they can also interact with people who were at those events.
So, then the information becomes limited and specific to that one person and it becomes repetitive as a person tries to channel it. Usually, these memories block a person from accessing higher knowledge until they have dealt with these distant memories. In a way, it is a cluster of energy that blocks a person from moving on until they have dealt with it.
Reverse channeling
This is what I have been experimented on, where you become a beacon, allowing others to telepathically access information about the human race as a collective consciousness. During the session, you would get information about those who are accessing your information.
In this case, you are not targeting a specific being, but rather opening up a transmission channel to see what comes through. This is good for curiosity because you get to learn more about other biological life forms around the galaxy, milk way, and even the universe.
In most cases, this type of channeling is limited to telepathic communication to physical entities like human beings that can only communicate through telepathy.
Trance channeling.
Trance channeling is when a person is totally immersed in a deep trance and allows other information to pass through them. Edgar Cayce is a good example of a trance channeler. And through my research, I have found out that a lot of traditional shamans use this type of channeling to get solutions.
As a result, I laugh in the face of the ancient alien theory because humans have been capable of acquiring very sophisticated knowledge and wisdom through this type of channeling for ages. Modern man is limited in the materialistic world where they believe and think that everything has to originate from the physical.
Dolores Cannon was a hypnotist. She could guide her clients into deeper states of consciousness where healing happened. In fact, almost all of her books were written based on the sessions with her clients. Though this is hypnosis, it is also trance channeling.
The Urantia Book and Seth speaks are two examples of information obtained through trance channeling.
Energy Channeling.
This type of channeling happens when an energy healer like a reiki master, chi gong master, or even a shaman channels a specific type of energy for the purpose of healing someone else.
This type of energy channeling is very different from an athlete that tries to channel enough energy to win a race or a competitive sport. Because when an athlete channels physical strength, they are consciously directing physical strength from their body organs and other reservoirs to their limbic systems.
However, a healer channels energy from higher realms. This type of energy is conscious energy that flows through them and can adjust and repair the etheric layers of a client that needs repairing.
Though I said it is conscious energy, it does not mean it is an entity. It means that this type of energy is very sensitive to human intentions and emotions, and can be directed towards repairing the human energetic field.
It is mostly used for chakra and auric healing.
Walk-In Channeling.
This type of channeling is not widely known, but it is very common in shamanic practices, where they allow past versions or higher versions of the person to walk-in their body for healing or teaching purposes.
You may find that a certain individual in one of their past lives was a powerful healer. Therefore, they tune in to their past selves and allow that wisdom and knowledge to come through for healing. This is also true when it comes to famous scientists who remember their ancient technical knowledge and bring it over to this time.
Thus, even when it comes to channeling, there are limitations, since it is linked to a lineage of a certain bloodline or to a specific group of the soul. If you are a foreigner and try to access it they will block you.
This implies that walk-in channeling is not limited to a single individual but also includes their spiritual allies. See it as a village or a town, where a person is a member of that town. This means that whoever is in that town has access to all the facilities and services offered in that town.
In this situation, a person is able to allow any of these groups of beings to walk-in their body for whatever they request.
This is not possession because in this case, an individual has transcended the limitations of the physical body and no longer considers themselves as a biological body. It is like lending your friend a car, or a house. In addition to this is that all these other walk-ins are of similar frequencies and vibrations to your inner rhythms and harmony.
Entity Channeling.
Channeling an entity must never be confused with possession because this is when a person lets their body become a vessel for other entities to briefly walk-in their body for various tasks.
The difference between this type of channeling and that of walk-in is that walk-in channeling is limited to a specific group of beings that are related to this person in multiple lifetimes and are connected to this person on other dimensions.
But entity channeling is that of mediumship where a person allows their body to be used by any entity. It could be a client’s spirit of a deceased loved one, it could be an extra-terrestrial or other types of deities.
What is the appropriate practice of channeling?
If you want to dive into channeling, here are some rules of thumb that you may integrate into your practice so that you are heading in the right direction.
- Perform a channeling session with a clear mind and stable emotions.
- Do not perform a channeling session under the influence of drugs.
- Perform a channeling session in places with positive vibes. Before you begin any session, it is a wise idea to clear out your space.
- Your intention of any channeling sessions should always lean on the positive side of things. That means don’t try to channel for the purpose of harming someone else or in general for the purpose of violating others’ will.
- Always discern what is being presented to you. Does it promote your spiritual growth? Or does it fuel your ego and desires? Is the message biased? Does it always tell you sweet things without warning you or trying to be realistic with you?
- If the flow of information is overwhelming try to regulate it by taking a bite at a time. Take time to master the first information before moving on to the next.
- Always close the session after completion.
That’s all I can say about channeling for today. Hope you have learn a thing or two about channeling.
