Babies will be delighted if you can travel with them. To them, it is
great fun and also very reassuring to feel a continuity between
this world and the others, meeting the same people in different
layers. They also know that if anything goes wrong during the
night, they can rush to you and get help.
19.7 How long does it last?
How long will your child remain psychic? To a certain extent, that
will depend on how much spiritual work is shared with the baby.
The more you practise the baby work, the more seeds of spiritual
awakening are implanted, at this age of maximum receptivity.
Yet as soon as the child's mental development reaches a certain
level, psychic abilities begin to diminish. Therefore, as early as
sixteen or eighteen months, when the child starts uttering a few
words, a notable drop will be observed. The golden time for
psychic work with babies is during the first year, or up to
eighteen months maximum.
How much of the psychic capacity will be retained during
childhood and adolescence depends on the nature of the child and
the quality of home environment and education. Yet I do not think
that one should fight for the child to remain psychic at any cost.
Humanity was once very clairvoyant. If you go back as far as the
beginning of Atlantis, you find that human beings could perceive
spiritual worlds even more clearly than the physical one. Yet it
was part of the training of humankind that this atavistic
clairvoyance should be lost and that dark and disconnected ages
should come. We are now at the dawn of an age when humanity
will recover clairvoyant abilities, but on a higher mode, in which
the Ego will play a direct role.
Each human being repeats the history of the world, but in a much
shorter span of time (which makes the study of embryology
fascinating). Babies arrive on the Earth completely open, bathing
in the light of the spiritual worlds and hardly aware of the
physical reality around them. If this cosmic perception were not
veiled, it would be very difficult for the child to establish
physical references and become grounded. So to respect the natural
trend of development, you have to accept that your child becomes
more ‘mental’ and less psychic. You may accompany the spiritual
growth of the child with the proper education but you can't block
the child from living in the mind.
