If you judge a person, you cannot see how a person really is because your judgement will cloud the truth.
Meditate, observe controll observe. Then identify what you observe.

I dont even fully trust myself with the power, not sure we should talk on open forum about the closely related practical skills. (though I would like to!)

Kinda sucks being (novice) psychic on a site of psychics. I am fanatical about not saying the wrong things so I spend a lot of time composing my posts and my thoughts. What I think in the process isnt always what I want to say, and people pick up on that. Its like editing a letter written with a pencil over and over and having a terrible eraser that wont erase. And it goes the other way too, I sense stuff from other people and feel like im feeding into thier erronous path of thoughts just by witnessing it, to wich I feel guilty if I fail to resolve it for them. BTW John is legit, hes got a level of tranquility that I havent seen before, it must be easy to see everyones thoughts in a pool that calm.
