Everyday Life
Why can intuition and spiritual perceptions not be identical for everyone?
English translation draft · Based on the Chinese article. This is not a word-for-word translation approved by Master Shengyuan.
When intuition arises, notice what it may remind you. Through faith I understand some daily intuition as reminders from the original spirit rather than meaningless feelings. Yet people differ in perception and understanding, so you need not match others exactly.
Some people see unseen beings from childhood and believe in them, yet still feel afraid. Belief and fear differ. Conversely, excessive desire for experience and imagination may turn wind into ghost cries or a wind-opened door into divine action. Wanting communication must not mix imagination with actual events. Remain respectful and care for ordinary life.
In reading spiritual writing, I emphasize perception and feeling beyond recognizing shapes and strokes. Understanding develops at different times. Attending to feelings does not require experiences identical to others, nor can one dream or intuition determine the future.
The same place can feel different at another time. My deep early Xianshan experience does not mean everyone should expect the same spiritual-energy bullet. Crowds, timing and management may change, and personal conditions differ. Others’ experience can inform understanding, not guarantee your visit’s result.
Miao Nian described strong energy approaching from behind at one Sanqing Temple birthday visit, and gentle energy from directly ahead while kneeling on another. I agreed with her description. These were her different visits, not everyone’s response. Stronger feeling does not necessarily mean better.
