My mother claims she is psychic. I haven't quite decided if she is truly gifted, or just delusional. What are your experiences?

Or maybe she's just a psycho?lol joke only. I do believe in psychic powers. I have a friend who has psychic power. Magicians, they are psychics. Like David Blane, Criss Angel, and others. They can read your mind if they wanted to.

I believe that not only your mom, but each and every one of us is psychic. We are born with the inner knowledge but as we grow up, unless we keep in touch with our Spirit, we forget about that knowledge and we stray away from our Source. Some of us, like your mom, hone in to that and keep it growing. Bear in mind, I am not referring here to those people who will tell you just about anything for a few dollars a minute - those are simply scam artists who prey on our vulnerable side. But yes, all of us have psychic powers and through meditation and other mental disciplines, we can all develop this wonderful gift and use it for the good of everyone.

i agree with you. we just need to be aware of that and by meditation and by believing within us, we'll be amazed by our hidden gift.

Believe me it might be rare to hear such a thing in the US but in India daily you can hear a lot of such things and people have a very very high belief here in such psychic powers. So much so that some times when for some reason medicine can not cure a disease people take the help of such power to get rid of the ailment ..... also sometimes it might be for excellence in business people will call upon such powers. Though myself I kind of do not believe too much in them but seeing people around me with so much devotion and belief makes me wonder that maybe something exists beyond our known scientific knowledge.

you just have to be open to it, I agree its much like being your own live receiver just as a radio would but also for myself I realized later on I was recieving many things but not knowingly, so maybe these past experiences acted as confirmation of a belief I had of myself being psychic.

Yes, I definetly belive. Everyone has the capabilities but how much they are apparent depends on environment, upbringing, religiou beliefs. and how much you listen. What is that inner voice, nagging feeling, or inexpained feeling of happiness or dread. Also, God (whatever you choose to call your higher power), gives different "gifts". What we choose to do with these gifts, or how much we choose to develope our gifts is our choice.

I believe that we all have the potential, but it's like playing an instrument some people take to it more and are just better than others. I've had a flash of it from time to time. It's nothing I can control, not that I have really tried to, but I find it an interesting subject. We have all that brain matter up there for something. This just could be a dormant part waiting to be cultivated.

Personally, I don't know if a person were to tell me that they were psychic, I would most likely be very skeptical. But lets think about that for a moment. If a radio antena can pick up signals that you or I cannot see with our own eyes. Perhaps your mother can pick up signals that you or I are unaware of. I don't know. I would go betting my life savings on one of your mama's predictions! Lol. But maybe you should listen to her once in a while. Maybe she will amaze you! Let me know!

I think right there is the problem. Many see psychic abilities as useful only for picking the right lotto numbers, yes, its possible for her to know your destiny one moment but destiny lies on the choices that individual themselves make and therefore your destiny could change.
