Channelling

Published by admin on November 8, 2008

I have been thinking about chanelling recently and I have to admit that I have never experienced another being or presence communictating to me from a higher plane of spiritual consciousness or existence. So I have difficulty in acceptance the beings from another plane that is not part of myself.

Suddenly during my meditation, it occurred to me that I was already chanelling anyway. These blog posts for example, come from my zazen (meditation). Some I feel are mediocre and some I feel are so profound and hardly seem to be my words or thoughts at all.

I then began to think of my music. When I play piano, I play a lot of improvisations and although I will follow a music copy, I add more notes than are written and sometimes leave some out. Often when I am playing, it seems as if my fingers are just pressing the notes all by themselves and some of the musical phrases seem unknown to my mind. So that too in my opinion is a form of channelling.

But according to my Zen philosophy, I am not channelling anything from a separate being as in reality, there is no separation. We are all really one.

Please feel free to leave your thoughts…
