Channeling

Claimed communication of messages from a non-physical source through a person who speaks or writes them.

Channelled material ranges from spiritual teaching to prophecy. Critics point to subconscious authorship; believers treat sources as external.

Ask what, if anything, in a message can be checked against the world later.
