Clairvoyance The other component of
Cosmic Consciousness, clairvoyance, is the Egoic ability to see occurrences
and conditions on the Astral and Etheric Planes. That ability naturally
arises from your acquisition of character uplift and intensification of your
physical senses. Your conscious development of character, through practice of
the Great Virtues, results in the refinement of the mental vibrations
associated with each of the qualities of the Egoic character. Reduction of
the lower vibrations associated with base thoughts and attitudes, plus the
increase in higher vibrations associated with virtuous living, brings you
more en rapport with the higher planes of existences upon which your Vital
body and Astral body always are functioning. Clairvoyance is strictly a
power of the Egoic mind, just as seeing the astral aura of other people is a
mind-to-mind perception Egoically recorded on the brain’s consciousness. A
clairvoyant, whose eyes are blind, sees auras perfectly well. The decarnate
Ego deals with other Egos in just this way all that time, without having any
brain to get in the way. The whole trick of clairvoyance is to record the
astral events and impressions, detected by your Ego, onto your physical
brain. Fortunately, this tends to occur spontaneously and safely, upon your
acquisition of virtue and refined character. Clairvoyance should occur
as a natural extension of your continued Egoic advancement, since as you
continually uplift your mental state and develop proper attitudes, you become
more naturally attuned to the upper Astral Plane. So, when your breakthrough
to astral awareness does occur, you have an natural entry to the upper
astral, where there are no lower entities. * * * Question: When
at some point in time I achieve cosmic consciousness, will I have to meet the
Dweller at the Threshold on the Astral Plane? Answer: No.
Cosmic consciousness simply means that you acquire brain awareness of your
Egoic consciousness while you are awake in a physical body. A person elevates
himself by means of the improvement of his character and the acquisition of
the Great Virtues (which is the result of the exercise of intellect). Even though
a man never thought about the Great Virtues, he is still going through the
process of evolution. The clairvoyant would perceive in the astral aura of an
advancing individual a gradual brightening of the colors which are related to
the various basic facets of his character. There is an elevation of the
vibrational rate of the advanced person which manifests itself as ESP
abilities. These reveal themselves just as flashes at first and gradually
become of longer duration and more controlled. Clairsentience is one of the
earliest evidences of intensification preceding cosmic consciousness. Hunches
and intuition which prove correct are clairsentient. As you begin to hear
what people are really meaning, not just the words they are using, you
exhibit clairaudience. This does not mean you hear “voices from God” or
anything like that, it means that you are able to detect intent behind the
words and facial masks. Clairvoyance is the ability to see people as they
really are. Their character, intentions, and emotional states become an open
book for the clairvoyant. (01-1974)
