Automatic writing

Most of the automatic writing is caused by the astral shell of a disembodied human being. Mediums attract such shells who control their hands and give messages according to the degree of development of the soul who left the shell. The majority of these messages have no value and if continued for a few years, one can see how confused the messages become.

It is also possible that a very advanced living person, with the permission of the medium, can occupy the medium's body and use his hand for certain messages, if the medium is not clairaudient or clairvoyant or if the message requires, because of its nature, writing through the medium's hand. Such messages are highly advanced. They have integrity, continuity, pure logic, and deep information about the particular subject. These are very rare cases. They happen when there is a dire need for guidance, and there is a unique medium whose body is pure enough to bear the high tension resulting from being occupied by an advanced soul.

Most of the automatic writings are useless or even less than mediocre. Sometimes the medium can write better things than his "guide" or "spirit." But often mediums are so enslaved with the obsessing "spirit" that they cannot see the mediocrity and the nonsense of the message. Instead of automatic writing, people must go deep into their own inner divinity. In every human being there are treasures which must be brought out into expression.

Some mediums wonder how a shell can know a person's secrets. Suppose the medium has a customer and he wants to test the "spirit" by asking it the customer's father's name. The spirit correctly tells him his father's name and is admired for the "knowledge." For esotericists this is a very simple matter. Because the customer knows hid own father's name, he impresses the shell and the shell reflects the name into the brain of the medium and the medium transmits it to his customer.

What is an astral corpse which is sometimes called an astral shell? An astral corpse is a living elemental which is in the process of disintegration. This process takes time. The more earthly elements the corpse has, the longer it lives. Earthly elements are hate, fear, anger, jealousy, revenge, greed, malice, etc. These are elements which keep it alive or nourished and make it attractive to the sphere of earth. The purer the astral body, the shorter it lives. An astral body may explode and vanish in a second when the soul leaves it on the astral plane.

This semi-living entity operates fully when in the vicinity of human beings, affecting their astral body and trying to control it. Some of them are even absorbed in the astral body of a human being, causing violent and abnormal emotions in the person.
