Inspired Writing

Many who choose to pursue their psychic gifts find that the direction of their development changes from time to time as they progress. They feel 'drawn' to such and such activity or inspired to try something new.

Like psychic art, inspired or inspirational writing is a stage that many people go through. For some it is always with them, for others it is just passing phase that diminishes as a new area is explored. The most interesting thing about inspired writing is that what ends up on the paper or screen can often be beyond the knowledge or skill of the practitioner and demonstrates quite clearly that another hand is actually guiding the pen or keyboard.

Marlene has always been very literate; she has excellent skills in writing, spelling and grammar. From a very young age she has written poems and stories, a few of which have been published in local papers and publications in years past. Knowing of her skill, people would ask her to compose a rhyme or ode for this and that occasion. Birthdays, weddings, after dinner speeches, you name it. In fact much to the cost of a rival estate agent, when he had to deliver a speech that he had asked Marlene to write for him at a grand diner of chartered surveyors. Delivering the line "And the presence of pheasant was pleasant." to a room full of his peers, after a good meal and numerous drinks, left him red faced and spluttering, much to the amusement of those gathered.

In later years, Marlene's writing took on a more serious tone at times. (Although this did not prevent to odd ode!) Looking back the influence of her communicators could be seen inspiring her, even before she was aware of them herself. In later years, she would speak to them in her mind and write out the response. At times the result is very fast and unlike her usual hand writing style, often she will not know what has been set down on the page until she reads it back herself.

Inspired writing is a fascinating area of psychic work and can produce some very interesting results. It is also something that can be practised alone, during a quiet moment. However, it does come with a warning. And that is: do not to allow it to be come obsessive and all consuming.

We personally know of a lady who was sitting in a development group and was very taken with inspired writing. She found that she could do it and that it was producing results. Inspired she carried on and was engaging in practice at home, this spilled over into her time at work and led to problems with her employer. She become obsessively driven to write, whilst under the influence of a spirit communicator and this was having a detrimental effect on her life. This is obviously very undesirable and could have possible led to even more serious effects if allowed to continue. Eventually she was helped to stop writing by her teachers and regained control of her life. What caused this is unknown; it could have been her own ego, or weakness and inability to say no. It could also have been an over eagerness of her spirit workers, in that they could not differentiate between periods of work and psychic functioning. We don't know if she commenced with an opening affirmation or not, but it would certainly be appropriate to do so. This would send out a thought message to those who wish to inspire the practitioner that they are ready to work, in what way and for how long. This is very simple, good practice that should not be ignored.

In December 1997, Marlene wrote this about her writing and stage of development:

I sit within my silence and, although no words are spoken, I know the communication is there; that a higher level of intelligence is reaching out and imparting knowledge to that part of my consciousness which knows no boundaries. This subtle interchange now taking place has no need for understanding for the knowing comes with the knowledge - it is a natural process that requires no explanation, it is as simple as the act of breathing in the necessary life force which sustains us all as we exist in our mortal life form. It is essential to our progression into spiritual awareness.
I now know many things I never knew before. I speak of things of which I had no former knowledge and, yet, it seems I knew these things before. The knowing comes with the knowledge - without it the knowledge would be worthless, as useless as an empty sea.
One day this knowledge I will have to share. The time is not yet right, but soon the knowledge locked away within the ante-chamber of my consciousness will be unleashed and I will know it is then that I can share it with the world. I will know the time is right for the knowing comes with the knowledge and it will be soon, very soon, that the peoples of the world will also "know".

Marlene - 28.12.97.
The time is still "not yet right", but this web site is part of that fulfilment.

A few examples of Marlene's writing:

I could not see His face within the darkness.
I could not hear His voice, nor sense His might,
But I could feel His love wrapped tightly round me
and 'twas that which brought me out into the Light.

"When you give a smile away, you will always receive a brighter one to take its place."

Marlene.

Let your feet run with the deer,
let your heart fly with the eagle,
let your mind wander across the plains of the earth,
across the rivers and the seas,
reach out to the sun, the moon, the stars,
be as one with the spirit of the universe
and you, my friend, will have found freedom.

Marlene.

When we learn to accept that which we have been given;
the kiss of the sun; the touch of the rain; the breath of the wind: when we learn to appreciate the scent of a flower; the babble of a brook; the majesty of the trees:
when we learn to be grateful for the sky above our heads and for the earth beneath our feet, only then can we understand the true meaning of wealth.

Marlene.
