Is your child seeing them?

Most children are born psychic. Many remember their previous births and many others are able to see astral beings like fairies, angels, gnomes and many others. Very often parents chide and discourage their child if the latter tells them that he has a friend – someone who is seen only by the child and not by anyone else. Most likely it is an angel or some other astral being who is communicating with the child. As children are pure hearted and unconditioned they are psychic abilities are far more developed than those of adults hence they can see others realm and dimensions that adults cannot. Parents should encourage their child if he has an “invisible” friend or if they notice or feel that their child is seeing beings from another realm. It is a gift and should be preserved and nurtured rather than be destroyed with scolding, conditioning and derision. The fact is there are other dimensions and realms where many types of beings exist and often these beings try to communicate with humans. Even quantum physics is now coming to this conclusion. There are many benefits for one if one is fortunate enough to be able to communicate with these beings. Such a person is truly more evolved than most other humans, he is more sensitive to the life around him hence he possesses greater intuition hence greater wisdom. He is more receptive to the whisperings of the universe. Such people are rare. It is tragic that most often parents due to their own wrong conditionings impose their own false beliefs on their child and teach their child to rely only on their five external senses that give an extremely limited view of reality. When a child’s psychic gifts are not nurtured, his intuitive powers remain mediocre and undeveloped as with most humans. Studies have also proven that animals like cats, dogs and many other species are far more psychically developed than humans. Dogs and cats see and understand much more about many things than humans. They can sense danger, read people and do many other things far more efficiently than most humans. Is it not tragic that humans who are more evolved than animals do not themselves develop their psychic potential and are foolishly content to believe that whatever their five senses communicate to them is the only reality? The fact is that a stray dog is far more intuitive than an average human being! If parents allow the psychic potential of children to flower, this world will become a far more beautiful place because then we will have humans who will be on a higher pedestal of evolution.

Research has proven that there is a new generation of children being born on earth. They are known as Star Seed, Crystal and Indigo children. These children are different from other children in that they reflect greater love, spiritual maturity and psychic sensitivity than other children. These children are gifted and are more evolved than other humans. Often misunderstood they are often labeled as abnormal, retarded or dull by our conventional standards. Fortunately studies and research is being done on these children and they are slowly getting the due attention and respect that they truly deserve.

Lastly I would like to mention that fairy tale creatures like fairies, goblins, nature spirits and many other do exist in other dimensions and realms. At one time these beings could be seen by humans but gradually humans lost their psychic potential due to their ever increasing materialistic and avaricious tendencies. It is a known fact that spiritually advanced people (adults or children) have psychic powers that are more developed than those of average human beings. Very often these spiritually advanced people are able to communicate with the beings from other realms such as the astral dimension.

You do not own your child

When a child is born, it is beyond doubt that parents will feel a joy they have never felt before. They feel they have created a new life and the ecstasy is unimaginable. Becoming a mother and father is one of the most rewarding experiences of life.

Parents often feel that their child is an extension of themselves. This is where they go wrong. A child is his own being and he is not a “new life” as parents often think. He is already some soul that has chosen his particular parents and taken birth to seek its own evolution. Parents are just a channel through which a soul arrives on the physical plane in a new body to continue on its’ evolutionary path. He is a different soul and is to be treated as such. It is the duty of parents to guide him and give him the best they can but not possess him. I have seen parents often imposing their views on their kids and expect them to be obedient every time. This is plainly foolish and will serve only to destroy the child’s independent thought process and retard him instead of making him more intelligent. Career minded parents (especially those who have excelled in their academics and their career) are usually found to be dominating their children the most. If the father is highly qualified he will expect even his child to be the same. If the mother could not become a beauty queen she will expect her daughter to become one. It’s quite possible that the child is inclined towards art rather than engineering. It is the duty of the parents to nourish their child’s innate talents and encourage him to live the life he is meant to live. Parents must realize that forcing their child to live according to their dictates will inculcate a life long resentment in the child. When the child grows up to be an adult he will inevitably harbor an animus against society and his parents. It is only natural because when a person lives his life according to the path chosen by others, his soul cannot fulfill its’ destiny – which it can do only by making its’ own talent and potential blossom. When parents dominate their child and micromanage it, they make the child diffident and overly dependent on external circumstances (it could be people, objects or society in general). Each child is born with his own gifts and talents and parents must treat that as a flower and water it so as to allow it to blossom. Unfortunately pushy and ambitious parents do not understand this and treat their child as a being that is meant only to fulfill their own unfulfilled desires and ambitions. They might not be aware of this but they treat their child as if they own him and it is not nature’s way that someone owns someone else. Parents do not own their children so they have no right to fulfill their own dreams and ambitions through their children. They must realize that any living being evolves the way it should only when the right degree of freedom is available to it.

The seeds of violence

I have always felt that a lot of things taught to children in schools are not true and do great harm to the child’s personality. In history classes for instance they teach that Alexander, Napolean, Chengiz Khan were great conquerors. Page after page is written about violent conquerors while comparatively little is written about evolved beings like Gautam Buddha. The fact is there is nothing great about these so called conquerors and rulers. They were violent and cruel men who killed millions of innocent people to feed their own ambitions. It is true they had an excellent ability to motivate their army to march and keep fighting but behind all this was their own ambition. Moreover a person who plunders and kills people to fulfill his ambitions can never be great. Yet this is all constantly being fed to kids in school. The consequence is that it makes a child feel that dominating others through force is good; violence is good and being indifferent to others to fulfill one’s ambitions is good. In other words the seeds of violence are sown at a very tender age in the impressionable minds of the children. Is it any wonder that people have become so violent in today’s society? Most people today if asked of their opinion of these conquerors would exclaim “Oh he was a great man”. Even admiring or calling a violent person great is siding with violence. A society where violent people are idolized in the pages of history can never really be free of violence. I really wonder why history does not emphasize on Jesus, Buddha and other great and evolved beings and does not expunge violent men from its’ pages as they deserve to be forgotten. I can understand that an adult mind can discriminate but the minds of children are like sponge and are very impressionable and whatever they are taught they will accept. Morever, most children have an innocent admiration for their teachers and that doubles the danger.

I strongly feel parents must monitor their kids and must constantly take note as to what their child is learning in school. Just because a teacher has taught something it does not mean it is true. Parents must de-condition their child and must set things straight. If a teacher has fed into a child that someone like Alexander or Chengis Khan was a great person, then it becomes the duty of the parent to tell the child that they are not rather someone like Buddha is and the parent must also tell why so that the child introspects and understands.

Let them give also

Why is that sacrificing people or do gooders (those who make it thier mission in life to only give (be it help or any other thing), often land up antagonising their beneficiaries and making them ungrateful thereby resulting in a broken or soured relationship? Why do people whom we often help slowly become ungrateful and hostile towards us?

We must understand that most human beings (no matter how vile they are) have a deep sense of self respect. When a benefactor keeps giving but does not allow his beneficiary to give him give anything in return, the latter's self respect suffers a blow. He feels valueless and slowly starts to feel burdened with his benefactor's favours. Deep inside he begins to feel like a beggar and no human being will be comfortable with such feelings.

The key point to make here is that always allow the other person also to give you something in return - it could be help or a favour or some gift or just about anything. We must be aware that a I-am-born-only-to-give attitude though chivalrious it may sound is certain to make many ungrateful beneficiaries (be it friends, relatives or whosoever else). When you allow the other person to give you something in return you are in effect allowing him to exercise his dignity and his self respect and he is certain to like you for it and your relationship with him will continue to be good. He will no longer feel stifled by your favors.

Let them Fight

I recently came across an article in the newspaper that says youngsters in India are losing interest in defence services as the topmost career option. Perhaps they think other more lucrative career options are available or they sincerely do not believe in wars. Without trying to analyse why they no longer feel army to be the topmost career choice, I think that if this trend is replicated in other countries, soon a time might come when we no longer will have armies and no longer have wars. If politicians and dictators want to fight, let them fight amongst themselves.
