Hearing voices of spirits: what to do if you perceive this gift

Some people, more accustomed to the mediumship universe, may even consider the fact that hear voices as a gift, but for the vast majority this can be a rather unsettling experience.

This is explained by the strong medical and scientific paradigm still present in today’s society, according to which the human being is not seen in its entirety, body-mind-spirit. That is, when a person goes through the experience of hearing spirits and seeks help, there is a tendency to label them as “crazy”, which is far from corresponding to reality.

A person who can hear spirits has, to a greater or lesser degree, the gift of clairaudience, which, according to the spiritist doctrine, is the faculty by which the medium is able to hear voices, sounds, words and noises that are beyond ordinary auditory perception.

Can anyone hear spirit voices?

Allan Kardec, the creator of the spiritist religion/philosophy, stated in one of his main literary works, The Mediums’ Book:

We all feel, in greater and lesser degrees of intensity, consciously or unconsciously, the influence of spirits, and for this reason mediumship and its gifts are not prerogatives, but are intrinsic to all human beings.”

Years later, Kardec’s claims were confirmed by the famous American scientist Joseph Banks Rhine, from Duke University.

Specialist in parapsychology, Rhine has statistically proven, through his research, that mental abilities categorized as mediumistic are present on a large scale in the world population, in greater or lesser stages.

Also according to Rhine’s studies, most of the time, when hearing the voices of spirits, the person has the strange impression of listening inside their own brain.

This is explained by the fact that spiritual sound impressions do not pass through our common ears, but are captured by the pineal gland, or third eye, which, together with the brain, directly interprets the messages.

Clairaudience and Mediumship

After getting used to the gift of clairaudience, mediums are able to hear spirits and converse with them, often recognizing them by the tone of their voice.

But what about when you want to establish communication with a spirit even without having the gift of clairaudience developed?

For these occasions, one can count on the help of audient mediums, who act as interpreters of the messages coming from the spiritual plane.

For example, the Brazilian Chico Xavier had such advanced mediumship that he could hear spirits of all kinds, from those who wandered in search of a direction to those who wished to send messages to their families.

Hearing voices: mediumship or schizophrenia?

Today, a person who hears voices that could be spirits she is considered schizophrenic, receives strong sedatives and is often admitted to psychiatric unit hospitals, registered as mentally unstable, a definition that is practically irreversible and for the rest of her life. It is possible that she does not receive this treatment, but receives, for indefinite periods, sedatives that do great damage.

What happens, unfortunately, in medical practice is something that is not really understood very well. Because? Because the World Health Organization (WHO) states that health is the state of complete well-being of the integral human being: biological, social, ecological and spiritual. So, health is defined by the WHO as being the balance between organic, psychic, social and spiritual phenomena. However, in practice, doctors do not consider all these phenomena, but only the organic or biological ones.

We can ask, in any country, what medical schools teach and we will see that doctors are not alerted to the psychological and spiritual problems of the patient, they are restricted to organic reactions, as if the human being were reduced only to the body. physicist. Although the International Code of Diseases (ICD), known throughout the world, in number 10, question F 44.3, contemplates the existence of trance states, distinguishing between normal ones, those that occur by incorporation or action of spirits, from those that are pathological, caused by disease, most doctors do not take this into account.

In the Treatise on Psychiatry by Kaplan and Sadock, one of the most consulted by psychiatrists, in the chapter dedicated to the study of personalities, there is also a distinction between personalities that receive the action of spirits and those that are sick. Psychiatry, therefore, already distinguishes between the normal trance state and that of psychotics who would be abnormal or unhealthy.

This, therefore, would need to be further discussed with colleagues, especially with those who do not consider the possibility of communication between spirits and incarnates. Because? Because there is already contemplation in the medical textbooks about the possibility of communication between spirits.

Another aspect that also contemplates the condition of listening and talking to spirits is the work of Carl Gustav Jung, who studied the case of a medium who received spirits by incorporation in spiritist sessions. In this way, we find that there is already an opening for the study of the spirit within the curriculum of psychology and medicine itself. What happens is that the preparation of doctors is still extremely reductionist and, with this narrow view, they are led to consider only organic phenomena.

In conclusion, people who claim to hear voices are constantly judged psychotic and treated with heavy medication for the rest of their lives, even though there is a percentage of people who are considered psychotic because they hear spirits who are actually mediums.

Only by integrating spirit and body will we be able to open up to understand when it comes to one or the other case. So if you start to hear spirits, stay calm and seek help from professionals with a spiritual openness, or even a good place with a spiritual vocation before you consider yourself crazy.
