Experiences with Automatic Writing and Channeling?

[psichevoluzione]

Is there anyone here who has experience with automatic writing?
I am currently studying some mediums who obtain teachings or inspiration through automatic writing or channeling, and then use this material to develop books or projects.
I would be interested in hearing your thoughts and experiences on this topic.

Easy to cheat. easy to get self-deluded in it too. (a lot of people who do that are probably self deluding, communicating with their own imagination, thinking that they are getting communication from beyond)

Anyone who says that it is easy to channel, is most likely a charlatan or self-deluded person. Quite similar with automated writing, where your own hand is used by some other spirit.

From what i've heard, most people who used automatic writing were historically very high/drunk, I can't find which but there was a french writer who famously contracted an illness which made him mad in order to write better story, at the price of his life.

Every tool can be a deception, a trap, or an inspiration.

Ah, no denying there. Even people who write using their own imagination can get a lot of useful inspiration.
