Hi All
An experiment. I am channeling a being that I will call "Thalb".
I don't believe in channeling. Let's see what happens. Questions to Thalb please...
Sarah
Interesting experiment...
Okay so here we go...
My question to Thalb is: What is my life purpose at this point in time?
~Shadow~
Hi shadow.pulsar
Thank you for responding. I have a telepathic relationship with Thalb and his response is...
"To be him/herself, no matter what other people think."
I asked Thalb twice, because I wanted the first reply to be honest and true.
Thalb is a basic being (possibly a very intelligent being but because is channeled through me, can only give simple basic answers).
If anyone wants intellectual answers, Thalb may not know them...
:-)
Sarah
You are quite welcome Sarah.
I would say that Thalb seems genuine as that is the same info I have received myself from multiple sources.
I hope your experiment helps you to believe more solidly in channeling. It is only basic for you right now only due to you just starting out. The more you do it, the better your connection to it.
One more question I think is good and then I'll let others take a crack at it...
Will my "venture" be successful in that through doing what I'll be doing, will I be able to walk my path in a manner that will allow me to have complete freedom and abundance in my life which will aid me in furthering my "venture"?
~Shadow~
Hi shadow
I am sat with Thalb as we speak.
He tells me that any pathway, whether it be spiritual, walkway, concrete or tree-lined will have its own personal hurdles, or purdles as he puts them, and we all would benefit from 'floating above' our purdles.
'Floating above' is quite a spiritual saying, and emotional too, and I'm sure if we focus on it, we are all able to rise above our physical destiny.
To answer your own personal question, Thalb has told me... "your venture is very special and important to you. If you are true to yourself, and do not lose sight of your own personal goal, you will reach inner satisfaction. This is very important to you, however, you also wish to bring happiness to other people."
I have an inkling as to what your short term venture may be, but I am afraid that my ego might be involved so I will keep out of it.
As I have mentioned, I am new to channeling, and as much as I will let Thalb speak, I do appreciate that he is speaking through me, and I might influence things.
Thalb is very happy with your decision and is satisfied that you are a genuine human being. He would happily sit next to you at a dinner party... :-)
Sarah
Hi Sarah and Thalb,
Purdles... I like that. Sounds catchy! :)
Thalb is right on the money there. Very sound advice and it rings true within my core.
Please share what your inkling is as I am more than open to sharing what I am working on. Just didn't want to spill the beans on you since you are testing to see if Thalb is real or if it is just your ego.
I'm very happy an honored that Thalb is happy with my decision, yes I had made it a few days ago, and am more than honored that s/he would have no problem sitting next to me at a dinner party.
hmmm... doesn't look like all that many people have noticed your topic yet... I think that leaves me room to keep asking questions then, If you and Thanlb don't mind of course...
If anyone else is interested in asking though, please do. I don't want to have the monopoly on Sarah's and Thalb's time.
So on to question 3: I have a huge interest in lucid dreaming, astral projection, and spirit guides. In regards to astral projection, what is the key I seem to be missing? I've read many texts and done many techniques, however I seem to always be one step behind... In regards to spirit guides, what would you recommend to me in order to contact my own and also for anyone else interested to connect to their own?
Thank you for time Sarah and Thalb!
~Shadow~
Hi shadow
Thank you for your response. I will light a candle and come back to you shortly.
Not that the candle will give Thalb an answer - Thalb and I love candles. Thalb is fond of chocolate, wine, hugs and candles. In no order. Thalb is unique. That's what I particularly like about him. He found me, in a way, and he's become part of the family in a way.
I know that Thalb is a "he", by the way. Sometimes, one senses these things, and knows without a doubt.
My inkling (and bear in mind it isn't Thalb's inkling), [and I know it's wrong, there's a thing, let me think a while]...
My first thought was something to do with caring older people (and not your own relatives). But I think that's too "my" influence. I need to ask Thalb. It's still predominent. Caring for older people.
I will ask Thalb.
Thalb says no.
I asked Thalb, "what is shadow's job?"
And got
"manual work, something with your hands."
I asked "what manual work"
"cars"
??????????????????????
He would also like to tell you...
Stay true. There is something he is telling me about being honest and true, no matter who else is lying. I can't really explain, but he is looking at me with that open face. You must be true, especially to yourself, it is so important.
Does this mean anything shadow?
Sarah
Hi Sarah and Thalb,
I love candles too! They cast the most gentle light, and don't even get me started on chocolate and wine, not to mention hugs! :D
Hmmm, well I'm not headed in the direction of caring for older people unless what is meant is caring for the older ways. I've never been much for taking care of others, though I do try to help others when I can.
With the question you asked Thalb, "What is Shadow's job?" we have a disconnect. What I mean is that what you wanted to know and what you asked were different. Thalb did give you a fairly accurate answer of what I currently do for a living, The manual work I do is technical support fixing computers, however I think what you wanted to know from him was what my venture is.
I would have to say your experiment is going very well. You are definatly learning here, isn't all life a process in learning, and as always feedback is the best thing for that.
Hmmm... Stay true? Very sound advice and I will take heed on that. Not too sure though as to why, posibly a situation that has yet to arise. I will certainly take it as good advice though. I will stay true to myself.
:-)
~Shadow~
Hi shadow
I like this channeling lark, it's actually quite easy if you remain open.
Thalb looks at me with that same "true to himself" look. He won't shift. Shadow knows what Thalb's on about. I'm convinced. If Shadow met Thalb, there'd be no doubt. :-) My own ego and influence is getting in the way.
Sarah
may i ask a question selski?

Of course you may. Go ahead.
:-D
I was wondering what will happen with sparklefish.
oh oh.. and is the clicking i am hearing in my room at night down to a paranormal phenomena or just the house itself
its not a trick question or anything.
thank you selski and thalb

Most certainly. If you remain open to channeling amazing things can and will happen.
I wouldn't say that I know what he is on about, but I do have a good inkling and your probably right, if we did meet there would be very little doubt. Don't worry about your ego and influence. Thalb choose to work through you because you are capable of over coming them. :-P
So one more question for Thalb after the others asking questions have been answered first of course: What is the best way for me to connect with my own spirit guides and higher self? (This is something I've been trying to do for a long time, but have had little success in.)
~Shadow~
Hi Sunn - what will happen with sparklefish is actually irrelevent, accoding to Thalb. I asked Thalb what sparklefish meant to him, and he started smacking his face. I then asked him how sparklefish compared to anglepoise lamps. Same thing, smacking his face.
Then I mentioned stained glass windows.
Thalb rubbed his nose which meant he wanted wine or chocolate.
And the clicking you hear is not paranormal - it's a house thing. That was easy, we both came to the same conclusion at the same time. Houses make noises all the time.
Sarah
sparklefish isnt irrelevant :cry:
can you ask him how i can talk to my eagle animal guide then.or at least suggest a way for me to speak to him. I've met it in meditations.
thanks selski and thalb

What is the best way for me to connect with my own spirit guides and higher self? (This is something I've been trying to do for a long time, but have had little success in.)
This is an easy answer, and nothing to do with Thalb. (In my opinion of course.) Meditate. Or sit quietly. You don't need to astral project. Simply sit and relax your whole self. Shut down your mind (the hardest thing). If you can do this, take your mental self on a journey. It's called imagination. Everyone can do it. But not many do. Go on a story in your mind.
When you find yourself thinking, "this is silly", just continue with your wonderful mental story. When something/someone turns up in your story that you didn't imagine, accept them and see what happens. It can be very interesting at the least. If you let yourself be open to other influences, they can tell you things about yourself that you may have suppressed for the last 40 years. And these "other influences", if they look like Yul Brenner or a tissue box, or Darcy Bussell, may just be our guides. We have to be utterly open to what our guides might be. They might not take human form. Or animal form. They might take the form of a printer or a carpet. We must always be open to whatever is around us.
Sarah
Excellent advice Sarah.
I have been slacking on meditating lately, I'll go on ahead and try what you suggest and see what happens.
Next question, If you have time of course, I've been having a hard time with astral projection on a conscious level. Unconsciously I do it all the time. What is it that I am missing or what do I need to do to make the jump to being able to astral project in a conscious manner.
That question is also open to anyone else to answer as well if they wish.
Thanks Sarah and Thalb!

Hi Sunn
Sorry about sparklefish. It/he/she is still irrelevant to Thalb and I, for some reason. I've no idea what that means and sorry if it offends.
I thought I'd just posted about an eagle.
You have an amazing animal guide - an eagle.
This is an easy answer, and like the previous answer, is nothing to with channeling. Close your eyes. sit quietly and imagine an eagle. Soar with it, fly with her/him, perch on a cliff edge, just be with an eagle. Really imagine yourself there and be open to what the eagle may be telling you (telepathically or otherwise). And if you wish to know things, ask the eagle. This can be as simple as sitting quietly, imagining an eagle in front of you, and asking it a question. The first thing it responds, (before you've had a chance to think about what it might respond) it probably the right answer. :-)
Sarah
thanks.
I will try and come up with a more interesting question.
heres a good one if you have time sarah.
as i grow more conscious of the "other" world how can I help my mind interpret these inputs if you like and not confuse or misinterpret them.
like knowing my feelings are MY feelings etc.
Hi Sunn
I'll come back to you on this in a few days - got some real life stuff to be dealing with! :-D
Good question though!
Sarah
Hello Sarah & Thalb,
This looks to be a very interesting thread here, thank you for making this available to us.
My first question would be to Thalb; Have you been incarnated in human form before and what is your life like now, and what are the planes of existence you travel in like?
Thanks,
Covelo
Hi Sarah and Thalb,
I'd also like to ask Thalb what my life purpose at this time is and whether I am on track or not.
Thank you ahead of time!
I have a simple one: I was wondering Thalb's opinion on eating meat.
Thanks Sarah
Selski, after you get finished with those I've got a question for Thalb even though I probably know the answer already.
Last night I was meditating and I saw something appear in my minds eye and somehow it said "I know what you seek and I can give it to you." Along with this I felt like if I went along with him I would gain alot of power. So my question is: Should I go along with it?
Thanks in advanced even though I already know the answer.
Hello everyone. Thank you for your questions. :-)
I have been giving channelling some thought these last few days. It is a lot harder than it seems. The hardest thing I've been experiencing is trying not to bring your own opinions into what you think should be the answer. Or even your own opinions full stop.
And I'm unsure of my motives in starting this thread. Am I inflating my own ego, by trying to do this? Am I playing with fire? How can I channel something/someone without bringing in my own influences? What if the answer goes against my beliefs?
I'm finding it difficult, and I may give it up and leave the professionals to it, or at least until I feel more mature and ready for it. Which may be never... :-D
Nonetheless, it's a very interesting experiment, and I will have a go at the latest questions this evening, and report back later. I guess it boils down to the fact that even if I manage to remove my own influence/ego from the whole thing, Thalb's answers are his opinions, and his only. They are not the be all and end all of "answers to the universe".
So, please be aware that any replies are purely Thalb's opinion. And that may differ from my opinion.
Sarah
Howdi. First. Thalb wished to listen to Orb during our session.
Shadow.pulsar
You asked about astral projection and the missing key.
The answer from Thalb is... "the eyes". Your eyes. You must relax the eyes. Shut your eyes down.
Sunn
Sparklefish?
I know you have mentioned this before and I have felt guilty for not giving you any sort of answer, so I asked again.
I still got no relevance. I told him that I thought it was important (because you did), however he told me he was bringing my own opinions to the question...
Sorry.
As I grow more conscious of the other world, how can I help my mind interpret these inputs?
From Thalb, 'keep still and become attuned to "other worldly" stuff'.
I then asked Thalb, "how does anyone know anything?"
He said, "through belief".
Covelo
Have you incarnated into human life before?
No. Not yet. Not human yet.
What is your life like?
There is much to be said of "simpler" life.
Planes of Existence?
Under water. Whole universes under your world.
Meanderthal
Thalb loves your nickname.
What is my life purpose?
Thalb says, "I don't know. He ought to know - it's staring him in the face."
Is he on track?
No, says Thalb.
Stookie
Meat?
Thalb looked at me as if I was stupid. He told me that meat is "ill-making". Humans will eat meat. We are stupid.
(As an aside, I'm a meat-eater...)
3588897
Should you go along with it?
"No. Question it. Even if it feels good and right - don't go with it. You need to feel good about yourself first, never mind "it".
Exercise more."
Hi Sarah and Thalb,
Thank you.
Thank you sarah and Thalb.
I must say..I do find this channelling business very interesting.
Sarah why has Thalb contacted you?
Thanks for your answer. It was exactly what I was expecting to hear. If its okay, I've got just three more questions.
First: How far have I gotten in my spiritual evolution?
Second: If you know how many times do I have left to be reincarnated on this planet?
Third: Is Thalb a spirit guide or not?
I understand if Thalb can't answer these. Thanks for your answers in advanced.
hey Sarah!
As you know I'm very very sceptic when it comes to channeling, not that I don't believe in it (I've met most of the top channelers in my country, not to mention being with one in a relationship)...I'm sceptic about the intentions of the beings, because I've seen how pure hearted people have been blinded by this "gift" of talking to a "higher being"...(completely forgetting that they are "higher beings" themselves) and ending up in lots of trouble...by the fruit...by the fruit you will tell.
Anyways, to the point:
Could you please ask Thalb from me: I want you to reveal all of your intentions towards Sarah. This is my will and that is what I want. So it is.
Please ask him exactly in this way that I wrote. This way he will have to obey the law of free will and say things objectively.
Thank you! :-D
ps. I think that it would be also interesting to ask your higher self (demand to speak only to your higher self) : To what degree am I speaking with my higher self right now, and after that: To what degree does my higher self agree with the fact that I'm speaking to my higher self. It's also wise to check : To what degree am I manipulating this answer/ to what degree bodyless beings have an effect on the outcome of the answer (to what degree they are manipulating answers). You can use a pendulum fo help. Clearvoiance and clairaudiance may be easily disturbed.
If the being in any degree is disturbing your pure contact with your higher self, then in my opinion things are not so "fluffy".
Hi everyone
I've decided to leave channelling to others for the time being.
I don't quite feel confident enough to continue. Perhaps one day I'll try again.
It's been interesting, and I've learnt a few things from doing it.
Thanks to all who took part, and apologies to those whose questions haven't been answered.
Tally ho!
Sarah
I found it very interesting and it confirmed a few things for me, thanks for doing it. :)
I'm curious though, did you do what Hannah wanted you to do and got a negative response? Or was it simply you just didn't feel right doing it anymore?
I am still having issue with the whole higherself and guide thing. I've never felt comfortable giving a title but have when trying to explain an experience. I just don't have a title for what I experience... is it me, my 'higherself', my guide, some spirit or just really good guesses?
To demand to speak to only your higherself sounds strange to me and how do I know that it's my higherself?
Quote from: TalaNay on January 02, 2007, 11:18:37

hey TalaNay!..
That's the thing...you already are talking to your higher self. You always have been. You are connected and inseperable. Call it intuition, knowing, a feeling. People forget about this because it's "just" a feeling...nothing big and spiritual. Then either out of curiosity or out of despair ask for help other beings. In my opinion that is fine, as long as you know who you are talking to, and what is the real deal.
ps. Very often it's you yourself in an another aspect of yourself who is the guide of you right now.. :roll: oh boy...did I make it complicated or what :wink:
all the best!
You know with all this channeling stuff:
I don't think when most people channel it really is another beeing... its just their own personal philosophy they listen to for the first time since they ask themselfs questions.
"Very often it's you yourself in an another aspect of yourself who is the guide of you right now" ..... thats probably the case 90% of the time.
Hi all
I think I was unsure as to quite what was going on. I suspect that it was myself I was talking to, although some of the answers were a surprise to me (on a conscious level at least). I do believe that each and every one of us has the answers to everything we need to know within ourselves, and we don't need to look "outside" us. However, whether we choose to put a name/label on the other "me" we are talking to, to make it appear more genuine somehow, is up to us.
I'm rather sceptical of the whole thing too - and I was simply dipping my toe in the water, to see if the water was warm and whether I wanted to wade in further.
It has got me interested and one of the things that appeals to me is automatic writing. I don't know much about it, but I'm going to do a search as I know it's been talked about before. Has anyone else had any success with this? Is it simply another form of channeling? Any advice is appreciated.
I appreciated your comments Hannah - they sort of confirmed what I was already thinking, and rather than have one final session with Thalb, I've decided to come to a halt now. Once I started wondering and doubting, I figured it was best to stop.
Meditation is the one thing that I want to return to on a regular basis - now that I do know is good for my soul! :-D
Sarah
Howdyduty Sarah :-D
Great to see that you are so grounded about it :-D
I've tried automatic writing, but had to stop because all those beings wanted to talk, and I wanted to talk to my higher self only.. :roll: This is the trickiest part of them all. To be sure who you are talking to.There are beings that "take over" you higher self for a moment and manipulate the answers. Currently I'm working at keeping "my" channel free from any beings that are not me in some way. When you set up a firm, stable connection with yourself you can safely talk to anything. Otherwise you can end up believing that you are the incarnation of Jesusb or Napoleon :wink:
The questions that I posted in the other post are very helpful in establishing who is who. Every being has to obey the universal law of free law (from what I know that's how it is at least in our universe), therefore, if you "demand" speaking to your higher self only, that's the way it should be...unless you end up talking to your subconcious self...which will give you different answers than higher self. This is a huge subject... :|
but anyways...always triple check, demand the objective "truth" (truth from the highest level possible), and triple check your levels of ego and needs to manipulate...
Good luck!! :-D
QuoteEvery being has to obey the universal law of free law (from what I know that's how it is at least in our universe),
I mean no disrespect but who created this universal law? It sounds hokey to me.. Isn't it just a matter of being able to feel if something isn't right or isn't coming from yourself?
I'm inclined to agree with TalaNay on this one.
Maybe I'll stick to meditation for the time being... :-D
Sarah
It just doesn't feel right when I hear something like that. I was hoping Hannah would be more specific in where the concept came from.
Meditation for oneself is the way I've been going. If I have questions I ask about myself, not for anyone else. I'm uncomfortable thinking that I can ask questions for someone elses life problems or give advice on how well they're doing on their paths so far.
As time and experiences go by, the more I realize just how personalized each and everyone of our lives are and that definately includes the astral. We all think our way is the right way and I think it might be. Now if we could just stop trying to convince each other of our rightness....... :-D
Hello TalaNay,
Thankfully I wasn't the one to create the laws, so I'll just copy and paste :wink:
http://www.spiritual.com.au/articles/ascension/Lawsof3D_uk.htm
Adrian's "Ultimate Reality" book speaks about these laws fully.
I'm not trying to convince anyone to anything. I'm using the expression "in my opinion" quite often. I'm not saying I'm right. I'm just sharing my observations and asking questions :lol:
All the best
I wasn't referring to you Hannah, I was speaking in general. I'm sorry I didn't make that clear in my original post. :)
I can see why you pasted..lol. Lots of laws. :-o I think that's great if you have belief and faith in something like that. I love the concept of laws of attraction and have seen them work wonderfully in my life!
I haven't finished throughly reading the list but will do so. Thanks for the link. :)
Holy guacamole batman! :-o There are over 100 "laws" on that website.
I glanced over the first dozen and then scrolled down to see the total number....didn't finish reading them. I recognize some of what they call laws as valid 'truths' based on my personal experiences thus far. But I don't really agree with most of what I read. It also looks like they took the 7 (or something around there) laws stated in books like the Kybalion and then began parsing those out into sub-laws. To me, that is probably a waste of time. If you understand the concepts, you should be able to see/understand the applications everywhere. But, again, that's just me.
I don't believe there are any laws to this universe. Only those we impose upon ourselves. Silly us. :-D
Sarah
It's not really silly, everyone creates laws for themselves. Like ethics and morals and things like that. It's good to restrain ourselves a little so we don't completely degenerate into chaos.
But people sure do stick themselves with some very silly laws sometimes, although that's just my opinion. :wink:
... I'm happy to hear that it wasn't directed to me TalaNay :-D
Thw rules are not an artificial invention that you have to print out and put up on your wall. Every human that lives by the rules of his heart, lives conciously and treats others like he'd like to be treated himself is automatically living by these laws...It's just the way life seems to be working...cycles, what you give is what you get, free will and responsibility for making choices..etc. At least for me :wink:

Hi peaceful warrior
Thank you for your question, however as you can see from the above quote taken from an earlier post on this thread, I decided to stop channeling Thalb.
There are a couple of other channeling threads that you might want to try, although I suspect that asking such personal questions is very difficult for who/whatever being channeled. You would have to assume that the "being" knew everything about you, indeed knew everything about everyone, which is
highly unlikely, in my opinion.
Instead, my advice would be to sit quietly, slow the chattering mind and ask yourself, your inner self, what the extent of your abilities are. You already know, you see, and it's just of case of listening to yourself. Again, my opinion. :-)
Sarah
Hey
sorry about that i was lazy and didn't read through. Thanks for the advice i have been trying to meditate but my mind is still too jumbled up. i will continue working thank you again.
You can meet your Spirit Guides by making them aware that you would like to interact, and meet them. This can be done verbally, or through chants and prayers. Look more into the subject, research information.
The best way to go about meeting your guides would be, verbally making it clear, then submiss yourself in a completely relaxed state of mind. (Trance)
I've never been lucky enough to have a guide come to me when "called". I usually have to wait untill they just show up and that's just hunky-dorey with me now.... takes the pressure off of having to answer what I would think would be the perverbial question, "what did you want"? :D
