Heavenly inspiration - distinguishing it from mystical delirium

04/08/2024

Many people claim to be inspired by heaven. They gesticulate, roll their eyes around and ramble incoherently, or spend hours frozen in some posture of simulated ecstasy. Well, in reality, these people are unbalanced and sick, and the rest of their behaviour proves it. They may talk about heaven, the Holy Spirit, angels and archangels but, in fact, they are ill. They believe they are communicating with the divine world, whereas lack of discipline and inner work has connected them with the subterranean regions of the astral plane. They receive messages and commands, indeed, but of a kind they would do well to mistrust. We must learn to distinguish between inspiration and various forms of mystical delirium. Those who are truly in contact with heaven can receive only waves of light, harmony and peace.*
