I'm trying to prove to some of my friends that television "psychics" and "healers" like Sylvia Browne and Benny Hinn are phonies who try to do a lot of posturing. The so called psychics and astrologers say things that can match just about anyone. I'm not convinced that Benny Hinn heals anyone and when I watch Sylvia Browne, for example, she looks as if she's trying to come up with something to say. I want someone who has been healed by one of these people to tell me about it. So I want a real psychic to tell me something about myself that no one else in the world could possibly know. Then maybe you can convince me that psychics are real. Awright. Let's go!!!

My mother was able to use her dreams and premonitions to provide very accurate information to friends and family. She was a very spiritual person. I, too, have very colorful, insightful and amazingly accurate dreams but I don't consider that as being "psychic." I still don't believe those people who anoint themselves as psychic. For example, if they were that psychic, why don't they help to find all those missing children? Why don't they predict all those disasters in which a lot of people are killed? And I definitely don't trust people who take money from others to make predictions.

You want to "believe" but find no truth.
You know in your heart there is more than the physical but have trouble comprehending the spiritual.
You know enough to point out those who are fake but those who are true psychics elude you.
When you get past the obscurity that blocks your path to true understanding, you will find that your "seeing" leads to a deeper believing.
A true "Master of the Gift" never charges for their services. Nor do they wish to know anything about you prior to a reading. Those with a Gift can only relate to you what the Spirit relates to them about you. They never ask you if you can "accept" anything about what they tell you. - A true psychic is actually "lost" about the messages they are relaying because to them, it doesn't make sense ... but to YOU, it will.
Good Luck and have a blessed day!

I don't kno..i truly believe people have gifts.
Like my mother, she used to have dreams. And she dreamt about how grandfathers death..i mean EVERYTHING that she dreamt happens...and she dreamed about alot of other things that i can't specify to you.
Also, i think I recieved a little bit of it as well. I could sense somethings..like i knew the past of a certain place..i just had a feeling. Also, I used to tell my sister her grades before she got them..I just had some sort of feeling. I was ALWAYS right! Now I have lost it because I didn't continue practicing it..well basically because i didn't want that gift at the time!
But, i believe everyone has a gift. Can't you just see a person and feel that your spirit doesn't mesh well with you..like something is OFF about them? Or you know that someone close to you has died in that moment? I beleive EVERYONE has some sort of phsycic ability..some people are stronger than others. And then some people choose to excercise that ability while others ignore or forget about it until the LOSE that ability.
As for Sylvia..she looks like a damn freaky witch, But I mean there is NO WAY in knowing if she's telling the truth or if she's lying. She's talking about things that NO ONE can see but her. It's not like my mom, who tells you something that she dreamts..and eerily it happens. No, she's talking about the afterlife..and she can be lying thru her teeth all she wants because NO ONE can prove her wrong! But..who am i to say she's a big phony..*shrugs*
Benny hinns...PLEASE..he's given WAY too much credit! Healing?..I truly DON'T believe in such a power. if God is so great then he should be healing you..not healing thru Benny Hinn!! It's not like he couldn't do it without you knowing right?
I mean..EVERYDAY and EVERYTIME people get healed!?
Oh please..spare me!
I'm pretty much "feeling" that those people either was PAID to pretend they were sick (after all, how would the audience know!?)..OR..they were healed because of MIND OVER MATTER...simply they believed so much that it would work that it some how did(which i'm sure they found out they really weren't a week later)!
Do you notice the trend here?
Sylvia Browne..talks about stuff you will NEVER know about until you die! So you won't ever know if she is right anyways..
Benny Hinn..heals some RANDOM person who no one knows if they are ACTORS..
Stay skeptical..there's NOTHING wrong with that! That's why i didn't want that gift that I had. I'll find out ALL i need to know when I DIE..
You don't need to know..you don't need to care! Just worry about fixing things or creating your own destiny. There's only so much you can know about your life..whether you creater your own destiny or someone TELLS you your destiny..
You and I will keep that suspense!

I've seen both Sylvia Browne and Benny Hinn on t.v. several times throughout the years and I was not at all impressed. I agree with you that they are phonies - but that doesn't mean that psychic powers don't exist!
Most people who claim to be good auto mechanics are usually terrible but that doesn't mean that there is no such thing as a good mechanic - they are just few and far between.

they are real and the reason she takes so long is because she has to listen to her spirit guide as well as other spirit's. I know for a fact that those things are real because when i was lil i use to have dreams about people and things that would happen an 3 times i dreamed of people who would die who i never even knew but seen that lived by me and about a week after they would die. i grew out of it after a while or i guess i blocked it out because it was to much for me but im starting to do it again although i dont want to know its just something people are born with.

That is how you feel and what you believe why are you try to convince them
When Sylvia is looking to try and come up with something have you thought she is listening to her Spirit Guide or someone that has past over ?
People only fear what they don't understand
We are all born with Psychic senses everyone you talk too Yes even YOU, has one or more psychic sense some people choose to enhance them others just ignore them others may just shut them down and that is done by deflating the pineal gland.

They can still use their Psychic sense however they don't know they are : ) read below
Senses are
Sight: Eyes "Clairvoyance" Spiritual Body "Eye" (called the Third Eye)
Sound: Ears "Clairaudience" Spiritual Body "Ear"
Touch: Skin "Clairsentience" Spiritual Body "Skin"
Taste: Tongue/Nose "Clairlinguance" Spiritual Body "Tongue"
Smell: Nose "Clairolerance" Spiritual Body "Nose"
*Know: Brain "Claircognizance" Spiritual Body "Mind"
Clairaudience - Intuitive
This is a person who will pick up a thought and hear it. This persons mental or intellectual understanding is very important and they can make good leaders. We all know someone that we would say was a mental person, always having to understand mentally. They carefully think things through. If this person were to become enlightened they would have the ability to become a medium, someone who channels information from entities who have passed over, because their most heightened sensitivity is to hear.
Clairvoyance- Visionary
This is a person who will pick up a thought and see it. This person has the ability to transform a thought into a vision, symbol or in colour by using their mind's eye. If an artist, a decorator, a creative person, someone who mainly uses the right side of their brain were to become enlightened they would have the ability to read auras, our chakras, draw guides and this is how they would channel what they received because the ability to see images is their most heightened sensitivity.
Clairsentience - Prophetic (1)
This is a person who will pick up a thought and just knows it. This person is sensitive to precognition and has hunches, dreams and knowings and this person usually deals with the future or present and how it will affect another. If you were to meet an enlightened Prophetic you would be able to get some information about your 'line of probability', tomorrow is not set in time remember. This could be a person who has a dream about something and that dream turns out to happen in reality. They have the ability of prediction because they 'just know' and can tune into and understand their hunches.
Clairsentience - Feeler (2)
This is a person who will pick up a thought and transform it immediately into a feeling. This persons life can revolve around how it feels to them. Their sense of touch is well-developed and they have the ability to know people by feeling what they feel. After enlightenment, this is someone would have the ability to practice psychometry. The ability to put something belonging to someone in their hand and read the energy. Depending on their other gifts, they could tell the past, present or future from the energy. They have the ability to feel how others feel but only on the emotional level. They will be able to not only empathise but experience their pain, loss, grief etc. For instance, if they were to channel energy from a persons past life they would experience the pain and hurt that that soul experienced in that past lifetime.
Clairgustance - Taste
Clairgustance is being aware of tastes without putting anything physically in the mouth. To perceive the essence of a substance through taste from the spiritual or ethereal realms. The sensation of what one is tasting is often linked to a spirit on the other side.
Claircognizance - Know
The sense of knowing through our brain, even though it is not a physical sense, simply because it has a corresponding metaphysical sense known as claircognizance, or knowing without knowing how you know.
Clairolerance - Smell
The sense of Smelling different fragrances from Spirits to find that earthly connection, strong odours you can't escape and can't explain a reason for eg: Cooking odours, Perfumes, Cigars or Cigarettes, Flowers, Extra. The characteristic essence linked to a spirit on the other side.
"Using some of the senses or all of the senses you can do"
Psychometry - Touch
Psychometry is another form of psychic divination using the sense of touch to get mental impression linked to it. Psychometric impressions may come in the form of emotions, sounds, scents, tastes or images. The visions can appear is single flat images, much like a photo, or as animations. As we exist in an electromagnetic energy reality, metal objects often work best.

They do or they don't. Either way, you are right.
I'll try to explain.
If you were color blind, and you couldn't see purple, and I told you purple existed, no matter what I tell you, or what proof I show you, you will think I am nuts, possibly think I belong in a
giggle bin.
Also belief and trust plays a large part of it.
If you don't believe and no one trust you, forget it.
