DWQA QuestionsCategory: Channeling PitfallsThe ability to apprehend spiritual realities directly does not necessarily imply any particular spiritual or moral orientation. This means there are benevolent seers and sinister seers. Rudolf Steiner is widely believed to be an example of a benevolent seer, and Aleister Crowley is an example of a widely regarded sinister seer. What can Creator tell us?

This is an important reality that needs to be understood and in the awareness of all who seek information from such sources. People are not always who they seem to be. Conmen do not warn you in advance they are going to pick your pocket by gaining your trust and manipulating you to give something of value to them that is unearned and will be, in the end, a theft. There are many who employ intuitive reach for self-gain and as a way to have power over others to manipulate, and especially to harm them, because they are serving the darkness and imparting its aims of inflicting evil to cause suffering. Many are manipulated to serve their greed by the darkness knowing it will enlist them in their cause to cheapen life and to leave people empty, helpless, and in dire straits if that can be arranged. There are many with psychic abilities of all kinds who are simply naïve and do not appreciate they might partner with a dark being or an influencer who, like a con artist, is misrepresenting their abilities, perhaps not even knowing of their limitations because they only see so far themselves over the horizon. Such individuals are often not expecting to encounter the darkness at all and naïvely think, because they have good intentions, that will somehow protect them or they can apply a kind of self-reassurance by putting white light around them, or some such symbolic gesture, not realizing it is only the workings of their own mind. The universe will not care, the darkness will see through it, and it will only be an extra enticement to attack them because they know the person is leaving themselves unguarded, and that is an open invitation to the burglar who would take everything they can away from you. As always, it is important to get a sense of who you comport with, to assess their reliability, and whether they are reflecting genuine intentions to be of assistance for your benefit as much as theirs. This is not easy to do on one's own and that is why people go to such individuals in the first place, because they themselves lack the intuitive reach to look beyond the prosaic physical level to learn deeper truths. We would say the best course of action for everyone in life is to first partner with the Almighty in everything you do and to ask for protection actively to keep you safe, unhindered, and unmanipulated by those who would harm you; to be guided, inspired, and uplifted to increase your ability to tell the difference between the good and bad one encounters. Asking the divine for protection is the first step people should take with daily prayer, and this is because the road hazards are many and frequently encountered. Having lofty notions will not protect you, only a direct request for divine support and intervention will be effective. Humans are vulnerable when they act on their own energy alone.
