Is It Easy To Be A Clairvoyant?
The term clairvoyance is a paranormal term which originated in the French language. Clair means clear in French, voyance means vision and voyant is a visionary. And clairvoyance is clear vision and a clairvoyant is an individual is clear visionary. However, the literal meaning is neither truly accurate nor helpful.
The term clairvoyant is further complicated because of having been used as a reference for different things in the past. The description, clairvoyant, has been used to describe an individual who has exhibited abilities in psychic or the paranormal. A total encompassing definition which fits is that a clairvoyant has the ability to know things about an event, object, location or a person. Without using the five physical senses. They use what is considered a form of (ESP) extra-sensory perception.
A clairvoyant’s abilities are generally confined to knowledge about something occurring at the present which they could not perceive with the usual five senses. There have been cases of clairvoyants receiving knowledge of events or the conditions of places, people or objects in the future or the past – however, these events are more properly termed pre- or past-cognition.
The means by which a clairvoyant learns this information varies, but as a general rule can be broken down into one of six forms or types. It is clairvoyance that is most associated with this first type or form, the remote viewing phenomenon. The clairvoyant, in remote viewing, sees an object, location, event or person hidden from them. Sometimes this is in the form of visual hallucination, other times the clairvoyant viewing something using their minds eye.
The second form is called clairaudience. In this form the clairvoyant receives information by way of remote event from sound. The individual may hear noises or voices other people and recording equipment does not or cannot hear. Some times the clairvoyant might hear voices of the dead. In this case the phenomenon crosses the line into a medium form.
Thirdly, this type of clairvoyance is clairsentience. In this form the individual gains information through feeling and touch. Some clairvoyants may need to actually touch an object that is not present. In other cases a feeling or vibration maybe felt by a clairvoyant from a remote distance from a person, location or event.
Clairalience is the fourth type or form. This form, clairalience, involves the sense of smell of the clairvoyant. The knowledge, for example, of the individual (clairvoyant) is gained through the smell of flowers and grass of a meadow, the ordor of blood and gunpowder. An it is unlikely anyone else near them can detect these smells and there is no source for these various scents.
Clairgustance refers to information in the form of taste. The clairvoyant may taste flavors which come from no apparent source and taste things from a distance.
Claircognizance refers to a clairvoyant 'just knowing' something without any explanation for their having received this knowledge. There is no sensory analogue to claircognizance, making it a difficult phenomenon to explain.
There are numerous documentations of occurrences of individuals with clairvoyant abilities historically within many cultures worldwide. The instances of clairvoyance have been found in many of the worlds widespread religions.
Buddhists believe clairvoyance to be one of six forms of extrasensory perception which become available to people with advanced meditation training. In Buddhism, this clairvoyance is thought to be in the form of clairsentience, with practitioners able to feel the vibrations emitted by others.
More than five hundred years ago, a disciple of Saint Francis named Saint Clair, had a vision where she witnessed the death of Saint Francis even though she was many miles away at the time. The Catholic Church, interestingly enough, had made Saint Clair the patron saint of television. Literally translated television means seeing over a distance.
However, no one has been able to definitely prove the non-existence of clairvoyance and the evidence in favor of its existence is mounting. Overall, the public is becoming more accepting of the idea that clairvoyance is a real phenomenon.
Whatever the skeptics say, they haven’t been able to disprove clairvoyance. The increase in evidence shows there exist many genuine clairvoyants in the world. Scientist, parapsychologist, and the public have become more open minded and accept the existence clairvoyance.
