Ninety One Billion, Two Hundred Million Spirit Guides

 Spirit guides don't exist. They are fantasy figures conjured up by a belief system ignorant of the truth. Ignorant of the true nature of existence.

The myriads of 'psychics' who use a spirit guide, or guides, and buy into the illusion have sadly been deceived by those who have gone before them. It's a ego trip - a short cut to delusional reality. Sorry to say it ... but those who claim to have guides and to work with guides have been well and truly had. The concept of invisible guides is totally make believe.

The idea of having supernatural helpers to guide every human being on the planet through this existence is truly far fetched. Truly many light years from the truth. Every human has apparently at least TWELVE SPIRIT GUIDES. Work out how crazy that is. There are 7.6 Billion people on the planet. That means there are Ninety-one Billion, two hundred Million spirit guides! Somehow its highly unlikely.

Its sad to read social media pages and see all the 'spiritual people' buying into the working with spirit guides, and ascended masters, and angels etc etc. There are countless sites on the net and a multi million pound/dollar industry selling this accepted spiritual myth. There are oodles of spirit artists claiming to draw fantastic spirit guides for people. Its a huge delusion. 

99% of the apparent messages and advice from Spirit Guides is likely to be the person's own imagination and their own ego. The ego loves to assume identities and misguide the self into directions that are non-threatening to the ego. The ego doesn't like hard work, and it does everything it can to ensure it has an easy time. Thus it plays actor or actress and dons the robes and mannerisms of separate parts of itself ... playing the role of guides to gain the confidence of its self.

The mind is a powerful machine and therefore apparent physical manifestations of a guide can be quite a compelling mind-vision to the vulnerable and the ignorant. The false ego, out of control, will cause many 'psychics' reading muses like this, which dispute their claims and beliefs, to react in a typical way ... denouncing this as nonsense, and completely wrong. They will know best because their false ego will ensure this truth remains denied to the psychic; who is not ready for the next stage in their 'apparent growth' ... they don't realise they are just another sheepie to wander into the new age pen and to follow all the other sheep that have gone before them. It's time for them to think for themselves and realise how ridiculous it all is.  

Spirit Guides - Are They Really There?

 I remember back in 1985, when I sat in a Psychic Development Circle on a night when we were going to meet our 'spirit guide'. The concept of the meditation was that we were going to a clearing in the woods where a person (Our Spirit Guide) was going to appear, then bring the sun down to us to prove its service to us. 

I was fairly new to the Spirit Guide idea at the time. I had been surrounded by spirit entities all my life. Real experiences. Entities that had appeared to me; has wandered through dreams with me. There was also the old man ... the Merlin/Odin/Thoth look-a-like. None of these had ever discussed the concept of spirit guides. They'd telepathically shown me many other things; made predictions which had come true. But not one of them had said 'I am your spirit guide'. So to that point I'd never needed a spirit guide, so I'd never had one. To this day I've still not had one ... but I will get to that point, as I am getting ahead of myself. 

Anyway, there was about 30 of us sitting in this development circle. The relaxation music was played, and my mentor described the journey in a guided meditation. 

I came out of the meditation with nothing. Not a sausage. No guide. No nothing. How was I going to narrate that to my mentor when it came my time to speak of my journey? I was about 11 or 12th in the group, so by the time we'd listened to the first related journeys we learnt of the Native American guides; the Egyptian Guide with the fantastic crystals; the Chinese Mandarin and a few other of the most 'popular' looking guides. By the time it came my turn to talk, I had invented a 'guide' ... a poorly dressed Nordic warrior with a big sword. My mentor had just looked at me with a knowing smile. She hadn't believed me. I then sat listening to all the accounts of fabulous guides. 

Then it came to the end of the evening, and we all stayed behind for a drink and a social chat. Here was the most interesting point of the evening. It turned out there was approximately 30 people in the circle. Out of that 30 people, it turned out there was over half that had made up their guide to save face! They'd had wonderful meditations but had not met anyone on the journey. So, like me, to avoid embarrassment, they'd described the first thing that had come to their head. Their spirit guides had been a figment of their imagination! 

How many people in the New Age Movement have done the same? It therefore begs the question, 'spirit guides are they really there?'

According to the traditional literature appertaining to Spirit Guides, each and every one of us is supposed to have twelve main guides. That's a lot of spirit guides. The world population is currently 7.125 billion. That means there are 7.125 million x 12 guides out there. Probable or myth? The problem I have, is that I never take anything on face value and I always question everything I see and I'm told. Spirit guides have never sat right with me.

Why do we need intermediary assistants when our Authentic Selves (Our Spirit) is connected to the universal consciousness, is a part of the universal hologram, so has all things within itself? Why go to a second party for guidance and direction? Our Authentic Self knows ourselves better than anything else?

Do people really communicate with a separate entity or entities which come to them as spirit guides? Or is it an aspect of their own multiple selves that communicates with them? I've been asking this question for the best part of 30 years, still awaiting the arrival of one of my twelve guides! Yet, I am able to comprehensively communicate with the other side, and provide incredible validatory evidence again, and again, and again without the intervention of a guide. I always find myself communicating directly with the discarnate soul or inter-dimensional entity. There is never a guide 'telling me to say this' or 'telling me to say that'. Not once. Not ever. So in my experience there are no spirit guides. Yet so many people relate tales to the outside world about their connections with spirit guides. How many of these connections are truly separate entities?

Ok, so I have a large group of deceased family members and close friends who converse with me from time to time. In recent times, my old mentor Paula Paradaema and my old medium friend Peter Patrick have caused havoc on Australian TV's Psychic TV when they have overshadowed me on live TV and forced me to chaotically give out my messages. But that's not guides at work! I've had clients deceased family members ushering in other deceased members but that still isn't spirit guides. No spirit has yet to say to me, ever, 'I'm your spirit guide'. I've literally made thousands and thousands of validated connections to the spirit world, but in none of them has there been a spirit guide. 

Yet, I witness numerous mediums and psychics who talk about their spirit guides and preach to the masses about the existence of spirit guides. It all goes back to the early days of the New Age Movement and the fashion accessories everyone is supposed to wear! Before the advent of the New Age Movement, the old style mediums didn't have spirit guides ... so why have spirit guides suddenly become an accepted part of spiritual development?

Anyone who comes to me for Spiritual Development will not be taught about how to connect with Spirit Guides. With nearly 45 years of communicating with spiritual entities, I can honestly say that spirit guides are not necessary. In my development groups I show people how to communicate with spirit directly themselves. 

I don't dismiss the possibility that family members and friends are helpers and lend a helping hand to make our connection with their world easier ... I just completely disagree with the spirit guide dogma that is circulating around the psychic world. It is nonsense that the original Person A began writing about as a requirement, and then like lemmings the psychic world populace have followed Person A like lemmings - accepting without question the need for spirit guides. Then using the figment of their right brain imagination, aspects of themselves have become spirit guides. It is a misleading concept and one I've taken with a pinch of salt for over 30 years. My spiritual work has never suffered for the lack of my 'twelve spirit' guides - in fact I am ever so grateful for not having any guides. I am responsible for everything I receive. I am also in total control of the information I am given ... I can decide what to filter and what not to filter.

So, in my opinion are spirit guides really there? No, I don't believe they are. And what I am concerned about it is the naivety that the inexperienced spiritual warriors accept anything that attaches itself to them and offers guidance. The Astral Plane is littered with thousands of lower entities who are only too willing to link with earth bound souls ... and use them as a 'drive through KFC' ... as an energy source. By establishing a need and a dependence on them, the earth bound soul will become reliant on this lower entity. An entity which can manifest an image of anything the inexperienced spiritual warrior wants it to be. To the unwary and the ignorant, this can take place, It takes experience to be aware of this, and to constantly test the links that are made on a mind level. 

The topic of spirit guides in truth opens up a huge can of worms ... the possibilities of what is really going on is endless. I say that people need to wise up and not be as naive as they are being. Each and every connection made with the spirit world, is first established on the Astral Plane, which is filled with so much junk and bullshit - that it is really very hard to distinguish what is real and what is fantasy. It takes decades to perfect the means of determining truth from illusion. Therefore it is scary to think of all the misguided mediums and psychics out there who believe they have guides ... when in truth they are dealing with figments of their imagination. These thought form identities can be used as servitors by not only the person who created them, but also by cunning ex-humans and non-humans who lurk on the astral plane. It is important to realise this can take place. Spirit guides may well not be what they appear to be. It's a bit like being a young child, who's never heard of murderers or rapists, who goes out into the park and then makes friends with the first person who greets them in the park. That person can say anything to the gullible child. The child is none the wiser. The person could be a rapist or a murderer who has dark designs on that child ... the principle of spirit guides is just the same! There are entities out there which will pray on the minds of the hapless and naive spiritual travellers. It is a scary reality which is going on out there  - Matthew James

Turning to Ancestors for Guidance

Many entities assume the role of spirit guide. Throughout our lives, we may call upon angels, animal and nature spirits, ascended masters, and celestial guardians for aid, protection, and support. Our ancestors represent another wellspring from which we may draw wisdom in times of need for they, too, can act as our spirit guides. Since our forebears spent at least one lifetime experiencing the tribulations that are a part of human existence, the perspective they can offer is a uniquely grounded one. Ancestral spirit guides can empathize with our fears and our frailties, worry, temptation, and feelings of insecurity. Once you have requested their guidance, they will see to it that you emerge unscathed on the far side of conflicts and are well-equipped to fulfill your potential.

If your relationship with your relatives was strained when they were earthbound or you feel disconnected from your heritage, the thought of asking your ancestors for aid can be disconcerting. But when the soul takes on its spirit form, it becomes pure light. Your ancestors, regardless of who or what they were in life, are monitoring your life’s journey because you are their progeny and they want to see you do your best. You can communicate with them directly, as well as through meditation, your dreams, or the written word. Creating an altar or shrine that displays images of your forebears or objects owned by them can help you connect with individual ancestors. The guidance they provide may take many forms as each ancestral spirit guide retains its individual identity and will thus have its own style of communication. If your ancestors do not speak to you directly or visit you in your dreams, examine your life to determine whether they are replying to your queries subconsciously.

When you make contact with your forebears, thank them for being a part of the web of intent that gave you life. Honoring their wisdom and experience can make your life seem larger and richer. Like other spirit guides, your ancestors won’t interfere with your choices or attempt to deprive you of free will. They will only do their best to answer your questions and provide you with all the love, aid, and guidance you ask for in order to help you evolve as an individual....<<<Read More>>>...

Spirit Guides - Expected Fashion Accessories, But Do They Exist?

 By Matthew James 

So how is everyone with 'spiritual guidance' by apparent spirit guides? Where are you with making contact with these mythical 'wonders'?

I sound sarcastic with these opening lines. That's because I am! I've worked with the 'other side' now for most of my life; certainly since the age of 4, which is a good 52 years. And in all of that time, including a very successful 'professional' career as medium/clairvoyant/platform medium, I've NEVER had a guide. Not a single one!!

I've sat in open circles and meditated for years and years. I've had teachers and facilitators demand I have a guide, because 'you must have one because everybody has one' ... but no, I've never had one.

I strongly believe they are figments of our selves. We all have multiple personalities and 'voices in the ethers of the mind' ... and it's a solid belief of mine that guides are 'essential fashion accessories' for anyone with an ounce, or more, of psychic ability. It's like walking into a shop and buying the same clothes as everyone else, to look the same as everyone else.

Now, I tell a little white lie, I've never had illusory spiritual guides. But I have had beings in SOLID form appear before me, and work with me. It's well documented on here that my spiritual path kicked off as a four year old, when a 'merlin' in solid form visited me numerous times, and sat on my bed before going to sleep. The would take me on astral journeys around the universe.

I've had names given to me to call out to in my mind. I've had clear intervention from higher forces giving me flaming yod's, known as fire letters. Again all of this is well documented on here. I've had numerous lost friends make clear contact with me.

But through all of it ... my pathway has been SELF GUIDANCE ... and not a dangerous reliance on illusory spirit guides which may or may not exist. With my significant experience of the other worlds, and what's out there, it is a serious problem to rely on unknown entities that are clever confidence tricksters...

Just because the NEW AGE UNIFORM SHOP expects anyone spiritual to have guides, does not mean it is the right thing to do!

Think twice before continuing any pathway with  'spirit guides' no matter how sure you are they are the real deal. The only entity that knows you, and what you need, and knows where you need to go ... is your TRUE SELF. Your higher immortal knows everything you need to know ... 

Types of Spirit Guides (& How to Connect With Them)

[Wake Up World]: To many people, spirit guides are entities that we choose or are helpers that are assigned to us before birth.

To others, spirit guides represent parts of our unconscious minds that symbolically help us to find wholeness. And still, to other people, spirit guides are parts of our higher selves that reveal themselves to us in various shapes and forms.

No matter what you think of spirit guides, and no matter how “new age” or “down-to-earth” your understanding is, it is beyond doubt that we all need guidance, direction and support in life beyond our own capabilities, or those who surround us.

Spirit guides, like many other elements of spirituality, have been heavily sullied, monetized and commercialized both on the internet and in real life, but despite the apparent tarnishing of their value, spirit guides are nevertheless a shared human experience.

Spirit guides are often thought as spirits that guide us, but in my experience with them, they are universal forces that guide our spirits to greater clarity, freedom, joy, and peace.

At the most basic level, a spirit guide is a type of energy that is embodied in an array of different forms. Spirit guides are archetypal forces; aspects of life which teach, warn, support, comfort, remind and reveal things that we need to learn about ourselves in order to grow. Do spirit guides actually exist on another dimension? Or are they all inside the mind?...<<<Read More>>>...

Elves, Guides, Robots and Aliens: The Therapeutic Potential of Psychedelic Entity Encounters

[Wake Up World]: As psychedelic research continues to come of age, following decades of shunning, evidence is mounting that psychedelic drugs can have positive therapeutic effects.

As we have previously reported here on Wake Up World, psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and MDMA (ecstasy) have both recently been granted Breakthrough Status by the FDA, a designation given to drugs with clinically significant and potentially far reaching benefits. Psilocybin is heading towards phase 3 human trials as a treatment for major depressive disorder, while MDMA is close to approval as a PTSD treatment.

Specifically, the study set out to explore the types of autonomous entity encounters people have after smoking DMT. Previous studies have revealed a large volume of anecdotal evidence for such entity encounters.

In particular, the landmark work of Rick Strassman in 1990 detailed such encounters in-depth, and his book, DMT: The Spirit Molecule spoke of alien-type, unsettling encounters where participants were probed or otherwise had negative or frightening interactions with entities. The Center’s new study, however, reveals that although these types of encounter are reported, they are in a minority...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>..

New Age Movement Ramblings & Potential Dangerous Outcomes

The concern is just how many seriously deluded people there are using the New Age Movement to peddle their personal madness; and just how gullible Joe Public is to believe that same deluded nonsense that practitioners of the New Age arts 'teach'.

It is a dangerous game. And one The Hidden Hand totally adores, as it keeps people distracted and unlikely to ever discover the truth. Just like recognised religions that do exactly the same thing.

The deluded practitioners within the New Age Movement, and the deluded followers, buy the crazy notions so readily. None of them ever question the absolute absurdity behind the crazy myths. 'Everyone has 12 main spiritual guides' is a perfect example. So every human being (7.53 billion) has 12 main guides that are with them all the time. That's 7,530,000,000 guides! Heck that's a lot of guides!!! These who preach this so readily, so parrot fashion from their teacher, who's done the same from theirs etc ... should stop and think what they are saying. Very dangerous practice at work here ... passing on these myths parrot fashion just because its expected of them to believe them.

These insane myths need to be stopped. People need to realise how crazy the whole thing is. Like those who practice the myth of  raising energy out of the crown chakra and opening the third eye ... its parrot fashion myths .... opening an such a high vibrational energy centre without the proper training; using a life force energy that can kill ... without the proper training and preparation can lead to suicide and serious mental health issues. Those who preach this dangerous garbage need to be given hefty fines to prevent others saying the same thing. Alright, we see the whole industry around The Chakras as a fanciful myth ... but we acknowledge there is a seriously powerful life force energy at work that rises up from the base of the spine into the head area. We speak about this from life experience of this thing. It is a dangerous power in the wrong hands. And those who so readily encourage inexperienced people to start working with this energy too soon ... are asking for law suits on their hands as many of those they encourage to work with this deadly force, might end up dead or mentally impaired. That is how dangerous it is! 

The New Age Movement implies it is all a big game for the brainwashed sheep to play in ... wonderful toys to have as fashion accessories ... the reality is so far away from that. Those who peddle these dangerous myths should be rounded up and given hefty fines or custodial sentences. It should all be regulated like other practitioners .... to minimise the dangers that can be created as a result of mentally unstable people grabbing the New Age Movement ramblings and using them for their own financial gain!

Are Spirit Guides some kind of A.I?

We recently dismissed the reality of spirit guides and described them as figments of the mind ....and though we haven't changed our stance on this spiritual myth, we have been considering another possibility.

Spirit Guides could be AI. They could be programmed Artificial Intelligence from another aspect of the highly advanced quantum computer we are trapped within/connected to.

A recent session with a regular client had this very concept discussed as a possible explanation for the issues in their life. Without breaching any confidentiality, it appears that there was some kind of 'rebellion' occurring with this client's 'spirit guides' ... and it was through reviewing the possibility that actual separate and external entities were in contact with them, we had to come to the conclusion there are instances where something external is working with certain individuals.

But judging by the way these externals have been dealing with this client, the external forces exhibited 'programmed responses' ... a little bit like the external force wanted to categorise this client as being option a, option b or option c, and because this client is in truth an option c the external force was going round and round in circles because this client didn't fit into the moulds that had been programmed into the external forces databank. An intelligent or free thinking consciousness would acknowledge this anomaly and adapt it parameters. Because, this external force hasn't, we discussed the possibility of it being an Artificial Intelligence ....

So, it begs the question that IF, in some instances, an external 'apparent helping' force exists ... is it an AI? Has it got an agenda all of its own and will in some way influence the physical human to act or react in a certain way that suits the agenda of the AI? A dangerous thought ...

The Myth Of Spirit Guides

I'm sorry but I just don't buy into the Spirit Guide bullshit. I never have and I never will. I've provided extremely accurate information for the last 32 years MYSELF without a single spirit guide. Not once have one of these mythical 'new age essential accessories' EVER made contact with me.

I've taken FULL responsibility myself when I've got it wrong with communications. It happens. I'm only human after all subject to human misinterpretations of what is a very finite signal. It would have been easy for me to blame a spirit guide for getting it wrong in those instances. Like so many of the new age psychic mediums out there.  

I make direct contact with the other worlds, and have done thousands of times, and in all those connections over the three decades (Or more because I was talking to the other worlds as a very young child in the 1970's) ... I've never come across a spirit guide for me or for anyone else.

I have conversed with very learned beings from time to time, and I share their same viewpoint, that the mind is a very powerful tool, and it can create something seemingly external. seemingly real ... mind imagery. That is what I understand Spirit Guides to be. Some aspect of the mind that works seemingly separate to itself providing information to those not yet ready to accept the truth they are alone in their own version of reality ... and that it is they who communicate with other aspects of the infinite. Not a spirit guide ....

I thus fully intend to continue on my own pathway ... making the excursions MYSELF into the other realms. Myself taking all the credit for what comes out of my mouth. At the end of the day that is the only way you can be responsible with the energy of the words you say to people. It is the only way to control what you say.

Ninety One Billion, Two Hundred Million Spirit Guides

Spirit guides don't exist. They are fantasy figures conjured up by a belief system ignorant of the truth. Ignorant of the true nature of existence.

The myriads of 'psychics' who use a spirit guide, or guides, and buy into the illusion have sadly been deceived by those who have gone before them. It's a ego trip - a short cut to delusional reality. Sorry to say it ... but those who claim to have guides and to work with guides have been well and truly had. The concept of invisible guides is totally make believe.

The idea of having supernatural helpers to guide every human being on the planet through this existence is truly far fetched. Truly many light years from the truth. Every human has apparently at least TWELVE SPIRIT GUIDES. Work out how crazy that is. There are 7.6 Billion people on the planet. That means there are Ninety-one Billion, two hundred Million spirit guides! Somehow its highly unlikely.

Its sad to read social media pages and see all the 'spiritual people' buying into the working with spirit guides, and ascended masters, and angels etc etc. There are countless sites on the net and a multi million pound/dollar industry selling this accepted spiritual myth. There are oodles of spirit artists claiming to draw fantastic spirit guides for people. Its a huge delusion. 

99% of the apparent messages and advice from Spirit Guides is likely to be the person's own imagination and their own ego. The ego loves to assume identities and misguide the self into directions that are non-threatening to the ego. The ego doesn't like hard work, and it does everything it can to ensure it has an easy time. Thus it plays actor or actress and dons the robes and mannerisms of separate parts of itself ... playing the role of guides to gain the confidence of its self.

The mind is a powerful machine and therefore apparent physical manifestations of a guide can be quite a compelling mind-vision to the vulnerable and the ignorant. The false ego, out of control, will cause many 'psychics' reading muses like this, which dispute their claims and beliefs, to react in a typical way ... denouncing this as nonsense, and completely wrong. They will know best because their false ego will ensure this truth remains denied to the psychic; who is not ready for the next stage in their 'apparent growth' ... they don't realise they are just another sheepie to wander into the new age pen and to follow all the other sheep that have gone before them. It's time for them to think for themselves and realise how ridiculous it all is.  

 

Do Spirit Guides Really Exist?

Whether, or not, you have spirit guides aiding you on your journey through the earth plane, is a very controversial subject with the wide range of opinions out there. Nobody really knows for sure if spirit guides actually exist. There are those who will argue until they are blue in the face that they have spirit guides, and they will endeavour to convince you of this being their reality, and their perception.Equally, there will be those who will also argue until they are blue in the face that spirit guides don't exist.

The truth is, the official line on this is, until there is scientific evidence that supports their existence, spirit guides are seemingly phantasms and figments our imagination. They are something the brain creates to seemingly externalise something we cannot accept as being ourselves. Spirit guides are seen as fantasy figure. That is the scientific viewpoint, basically.

My opinion is based on the fact that in over 45 years of connecting with the Otherworlds I have never had a separate entity coming forward and announcing to me that they are a spirit guide. So for me, it is very much myself that makes the connections, gathers the information and I only have myself to blame when I get it wrong. I've pretended at times to have spirit guides to conform with the general consensus of open circles I've attended. I didn't want to appear different so I made it up as I went along. This I feel is what many others do, and it has become the new age fashion accessory to have guides. Everyone is welcome to their own perceptions and beliefs. Guides I do believe are essentially parts of ourselves most of the time.

There are rare exceptions when I believe lost loved ones, friends and other world good Samaritans do step in to give us a helping hand.  But are they the cliched 'spirit guides' ... no I don't think so. The mind is a very powerful tool and it can convince us that something internal is actually something separate to us ...

Spirit Guides- Myth or Reality?

Spirit guides are nothing new! Ancient and not so ancient civilizations have spoken of spirit guides for centuries. There are dictionary and encyclopedia definitions of spirit guides. Traditionally Native Americans are credited with being a culture closely connected to spirit guides.

“Spirit guide” is a term used by the Western tradition of Spiritualist Churches, mediums, and psychics to describe an entity that remains a disincarnate spirit in order to act as a guide or protector to a living incarnated human being...read more>>>...

Guides part 1

Often portrayed as the 'necessary' new age fashion accessories, these guys are just about the most exaggerated and most fantasied aspect of 'psychic mediumship' and 'spiritual development'.

These 'essential' aspects of the contrived industry have somehow eluded me in all of my 30+ year history of mediumship and clairvoyance. Yet I've had no problem whatsoever making connections with the other worlds.

And its not because 'they have just been around me and I've not been aware of them'. The fact has been I've never had an illusory third party to use as an excuse; or have to rely on to establish connections with 'the other side'. It's always been ME that's done these things. It's always been me that has talked directly to 'the guests at my table' so to speak. I've never bought into the 'illusion' of guides. 

The thought that each and every one of us has at least 12 guides around us at any one time. That is according to popular new age myth, is very disturbing to say the least. There are 7.4 billion people on the planet. Multiply that by a factor of at least 12 and that is apparently how many spiritual guides there are around us. Get real. 

Guides are, in my opinion, a figment of an over active imagination. Created by those who invented the new age movement to be a divide and rule constraint. I've never had a guide and never needed a guide. I work perfectly fine the way I do without ever needing a third party assistance. I've sat in development circles to meet with my guides. I was the only one in the groups who didn't have tales of wonderful beings coming to visit me. I was sad at first. I felt left out. I felt neglected and ignored. Then I realised what it was all about. Now I am so glad to be the black sheep in this respect. I can take full responsibility for my actions and reactions in a spiritual sense . You only need the concept of guides when you cannot fully accept it is yourself and you are alone in your universe. Guides are like comfort food, and a normality that you must have one if you are in the psychic industry. In the last three decades I have come across countless people who have admitted to making up their guide malarkey because they didn't want to be the oddball in the group. Seriously! ---  Matthew James

Spirit Guides - Are They Really There?

I remember back in 1985, when I sat in a Psychic Development Circle on a night when we were going to meet our 'spirit guide'. The concept of the meditation was that we were going to a clearing in the woods where a person (Our Spirit Guide) was going to appear, then bring the sun down to us to prove its service to us. 

I was fairly new to the Spirit Guide idea at the time. I had been surrounded by spirit entities all my life. Real experiences. Entities that had appeared to me; has wandered through dreams with me. There was also the old man ... the Merlin/Odin/Thoth look-a-like. None of these had ever discussed the concept of spirit guides. They'd telepathically shown me many other things; made predictions which had come true. But not one of them had said 'I am your spirit guide'. So to that point I'd never needed a spirit guide, so I'd never had one. To this day I've still not had one ... but I will get to that point, as I am getting ahead of myself. 

Anyway, there was about 30 of us sitting in this development circle. The relaxation music was played, and my mentor described the journey in a guided meditation. 

I came out of the meditation with nothing. Not a sausage. No guide. No nothing. How was I going to narrate that to my mentor when it came my time to speak of my journey? I was about 11 or 12th in the group, so by the time we'd listened to the first related journeys we learnt of the Native American guides; the Egyptian Guide with the fantastic crystals; the Chinese Mandarin and a few other of the most 'popular' looking guides. By the time it came my turn to talk, I had invented a 'guide' ... a poorly dressed Nordic warrior with a big sword. My mentor had just looked at me with a knowing smile. She hadn't believed me. I then sat listening to all the accounts of fabulous guides. 

Then it came to the end of the evening, and we all stayed behind for a drink and a social chat. Here was the most interesting point of the evening. It turned out there was approximately 30 people in the circle. Out of that 30 people, it turned out there was over half that had made up their guide to save face! They'd had wonderful meditations but had not met anyone on the journey. So, like me, to avoid embarrassment, they'd described the first thing that had come to their head. Their spirit guides had been a figment of their imagination! 

How many people in the New Age Movement have done the same? It therefore begs the question, 'spirit guides are they really there?'

According to the traditional literature appertaining to Spirit Guides, each and every one of us is supposed to have twelve main guides. That's a lot of spirit guides. The world population is currently 7.125 billion. That means there are 7.125 million x 12 guides out there. Probable or myth? The problem I have, is that I never take anything on face value and I always question everything I see and I'm told. Spirit guides have never sat right with me.

Why do we need intermediary assistants when our Authentic Selves (Our Spirit) is connected to the universal consciousness, is a part of the universal hologram, so has all things within itself? Why go to a second party for guidance and direction? Our Authentic Self knows ourselves better than anything else?

Do people really communicate with a separate entity or entities which come to them as spirit guides? Or is it an aspect of their own multiple selves that communicates with them? I've been asking this question for the best part of 30 years, still awaiting the arrival of one of my twelve guides! Yet, I am able to comprehensively communicate with the other side, and provide incredible validatory evidence again, and again, and again without the intervention of a guide. I always find myself communicating directly with the discarnate soul or inter-dimensional entity. There is never a guide 'telling me to say this' or 'telling me to say that'. Not once. Not ever. So in my experience there are no spirit guides. Yet so many people relate tales to the outside world about their connections with spirit guides. How many of these connections are truly separate entities?

Ok, so I have a large group of deceased family members and close friends who converse with me from time to time. In recent times, my old mentor Paula Paradaema and my old medium friend Peter Patrick have caused havoc on Australian TV's Psychic TV when they have overshadowed me on live TV and forced me to chaotically give out my messages. But that's not guides at work! I've had clients deceased family members ushering in other deceased members but that still isn't spirit guides. No spirit has yet to say to me, ever, 'I'm your spirit guide'. I've literally made thousands and thousands of validated connections to the spirit world, but in none of them has there been a spirit guide. 

Yet, I witness numerous mediums and psychics who talk about their spirit guides and preach to the masses about the existence of spirit guides. It all goes back to the early days of the New Age Movement and the fashion accessories everyone is supposed to wear! Before the advent of the New Age Movement, the old style mediums didn't have spirit guides ... so why have spirit guides suddenly become an accepted part of spiritual development?

Anyone who comes to me for Spiritual Development will not be taught about how to connect with Spirit Guides. With nearly 45 years of communicating with spiritual entities, I can honestly say that spirit guides are not necessary. In my development groups I show people how to communicate with spirit directly themselves. 

I don't dismiss the possibility that family members and friends are helpers and lend a helping hand to make our connection with their world easier ... I just completely disagree with the spirit guide dogma that is circulating around the psychic world. It is nonsense that the original Person A began writing about as a requirement, and then like lemmings the psychic world populace have followed Person A like lemmings - accepting without question the need for spirit guides. Then using the figment of their right brain imagination, aspects of themselves have become spirit guides. It is a misleading concept and one I've taken with a pinch of salt for over 30 years. My spiritual work has never suffered for the lack of my 'twelve spirit' guides - in fact I am ever so grateful for not having any guides. I am responsible for everything I receive. I am also in total control of the information I am given ... I can decide what to filter and what not to filter.

So, in my opinion are spirit guides really there? No, I don't believe they are. And what I am concerned about it is the naivety that the inexperienced spiritual warriors accept anything that attaches itself to them and offers guidance. The Astral Plane is littered with thousands of lower entities who are only too willing to link with earth bound souls ... and use them as a 'drive through KFC' ... as an energy source. By establishing a need and a dependence on them, the earth bound soul will become reliant on this lower entity. An entity which can manifest an image of anything the inexperienced spiritual warrior wants it to be. To the unwary and the ignorant, this can take place, It takes experience to be aware of this, and to constantly test the links that are made on a mind level. 

The topic of spirit guides in truth opens up a huge can of worms ... the possibilities of what is really going on is endless. I say that people need to wise up and not be as naive as they are being. Each and every connection made with the spirit world, is first established on the Astral Plane, which is filled with so much junk and bullshit - that it is really very hard to distinguish what is real and what is fantasy. It takes decades to perfect the means of determining truth from illusion. Therefore it is scary to think of all the misguided mediums and psychics out there who believe they have guides ... when in truth they are dealing with figments of their imagination. These thought form identities can be used as servitors by not only the person who created them, but also by cunning ex-humans and non-humans who lurk on the astral plane. It is important to realise this can take place. Spirit guides may well not be what they appear to be. It's a bit like being a young child, who's never heard of murderers or rapists, who goes out into the park and then makes friends with the first person who greets them in the park. That person can say anything to the gullible child. The child is none the wiser. The person could be a rapist or a murderer who has dark designs on that child ... the principle of spirit guides is just the same! There are entities out there which will pray on the minds of the hapless and naive spiritual travellers. It is a scary reality which is going on out there  - Matthew James 

The Dweller On The Threshold

The Dweller on the Threshold refers to an invisible malevolent entity that attaches to a human being. The term was first used by Bulwer-Lytton in his novel Zanoni.
In theosophical literature, Helena P. Blavatsky affirms that the Dweller is not a fictitious entity. It is the discarded astral double of an individual in a previous life that may not have fully disintegrated yet when that individual is reborn. Thus the dweller will be drawn to the new incarnated personality due to their affinity. Sometimes this entity is also called Guardian of the Threshold.

Another explanation is that provided by Alice Bailey on Esoteric astrology, "From ancient recesses of the memory, from a deeply rooted past, which is definitely recalled, and from the racial and the individual subconscious (or founded and established thought reservoirs and desires, inherited and inherent) there emerges from individual past lives and experience, that which is the sum total of all instinctual tendencies, of all inherited glamours, and of all phases of wrong mental attitudes; to these, (as they constitute a blended whole) we give the name of the Dweller on the Threshold."

This Dweller is the sum total of all the personality characteristics which have remained unconquered and unsubtle, and which must be finally overcome before initiation can be taken. Each life sees some progress made; some personality defects straightened out, and some real advance effected. But the unconquered residue, and the ancient liabilities are numerous, and excessively potent, and - when the soul contact's adequately established - there eventuates a life wherein the highly developed and powerful personality becomes, in itself, the Dweller on the Threshold. Then the Angel of the Presence and the Dweller stand face to face, and something must then be done....(Occult Magick)

A Personal View Of 'Spirit Guides'

I recall an interesting incident back in the mid 1980's; one night at an Open Circle I was attending. We’d all undertaken a meditation to meet one of our ‘Spirit Guides’; as usual I found nothing was in contact with me during the meditation. I listened with interest as other members of the circle described their ‘Native American Indian chief with two white feather’ guides; their ‘Chinese Mandarin’ guides; their “Egyptian Princess” guides etc etc... each one described in perfect detail down to the message and the gift. 

It came my turn ... and instead of admitting I hadn’t met a guide ...I replied with ‘mine was a monk in a simple gown who didn’t say anything or give me anything’. It was accepted without question by the circle organiser ... 

... later on in the evening we all sat down to have refreshments and some food ... and the conversation of guides was brought up. I interjected into the conversation with the fact I’d made my guide up in order to not be self conscious ... and appear different to everyone else!

The interesting thing was that most of the people attending the circle AGREED with me!!! They’d heard the first accounts of wonderful guides being contacted and had decided to up their descriptions of their guides in order to compete with the other accounts!!!

It made me question the spiritual movement from that moment forth. I listen to accounts of spiritual guides ... and visualise most guides to be little more than ‘fashion accessories’ that go with being ‘psychic’ or a ‘medium’ or a ‘clairvoyant’ ... it is the accepted norm that you must have a guide to communicate with spirit. I’ve had so much ridicule over the years for not having a guide. I’ve been told I’m not developed enough to have a guide; or surely you must have a guide. The simple answer is ‘NO I don’t have any guides, I make the connections directly myself and I do not trust a third party to give me information I can acquire myself’ ....

I wonder how many psychics out there who say they have guides because it is expected that they have one ..? I for one am sufficiently annoyed with the so called New Age Movement ...!!! All this documentation about guides and secondary guides and main guides etc ... and all of us having guides .... please see the improbability of it all!!! 

I’ve been a professional medium in the industry since the 1980's ... I consistently communicate with the spirit world in 95% of my readings, live platform shows, radio shows .... and I do it without guides!!! My messages do not comprise ‘they are telling me this, they are saying that’ ... which is the vagueness that fabricated guides provide. My messages are concise ... who is communicating; what they suffered with, or died of, and the reason for their connection ....

Anyone who does seriously conclude they have a real ‘guide’ I compel you to check the connection out with validatory information that can confirms it is not a fabricated guide. Even then ...you need to determine if the guide is not a multi dimensional aspect of yourself ...! It is a process that is vital in your spiritual development ... very vital ... more than you will ever comprehend ....! In all the multitudes of communications I have had with the spirit world not ONE soul has discussed the existence of guides ... not once in 30 years ...!! I wonder why? I’ve raised the subject so many times ... and not one soul has sent a guide or admitted to the existence of guides. Helpers yes ... late family members and close friends providing information happens quite often ... but when I receive information there is no ‘GUIDE’ there telling me what everyone are saying ... I hear and sense it all myself — Matthew James
