I don't know if this is the right forum to post this in, but I've got a question. A friend of my brother's, a priest of sorts, has taught my brother many things. He has told him his past lives, brought him to a spirit world, let him walk outside himself. He told him that he was once a great native shaman-like figure, and that he is a very special psychic. I am soon to meet this priest, and I want to know what I'm in for. Can things like this pass through blood?
If he's self-promoting that much, then I'd be wary. The true people aren't the ones who shout "I'm great". A little healthy scepticism will be useful - something I think is profoundly lacking in the New Age community. Whatever happened to common sense?
He doesn't take people under his wing unless they find him. He never tells people of his priesthood unless they bring it up.
Soul is paramount, which is basically you, albeit a kinda larger part of you. Its not much related to blood or genetics, though i believe accommodating genetic structure can help, everything depends on you as the essence.
Wow, what a great deal! Sign me up! [/sarcasm] Seriously, I treat all these "cross my palm with silver" types with the greatest of skepticism.. too many fakers out there.
