Channeling - fashion, fraud or a new way of knowing

Channeling, a method of communicating with immaterial beings, stirs much emotion and controversy. In this article, we will delve deeper into the topic, considering whether it is a genuine phenomenon, a fashionable trend, or perhaps a new form of cognition. This phenomenon involves contact with extraterrestrial beings who transmit knowledge about Earth and its future. Many people participate in channeling sessions, asking questions and receiving answers that are often imprecise. Can such communications contribute to spiritual development and understanding our place in the cosmos? We will also examine the literature on this topic and the reasons for the growing interest in this form of communication.

Channeling is a very specific method of contact between immaterial entities and humans. They select the appropriate person, from their perspective, and communicate with their mind, which the subconscious translates into spoken or written words. Extraterrestrial beings rarely use verbal language, and communication with them occurs in some form of trance. According to the senders of these messages, the greatest difficulty lies in the fact that physical entities, i.e., humans, do not consent to take full control over them during transmission. However, only a temporary relinquishment of one's personality allows for true communication.

In many cases, channeling sessions involve a group of people, usually friends of the channeler. They ask various questions and receive answers, often vague, sometimes accompanied by the comment that it's not yet time to discover these matters or that the person isn't yet ready for this type of knowledge.

The American publishing market boasts a vast body of literature stemming from these sources and popular there for many years. It has appeared relatively recently in our country, and is mostly translated from English. Among American authors, the most well-known is Elżbieta Nowalska, who has published several books written in "intuitive writing," as she herself put it. Their content consists of messages from the Energy for the inhabitants of Earth.
