A materialist believes in the reality of the visible world and a spiritual person believes in the reality of the invisible world. It is this belief that gives them powers on one or the other world. A materialist has very little power in the plane of thoughts and feelings, because they identify too much with the physical plane. The danger for them is therefore that they are incapable of resolving problems in their inner world. The danger for a spiritual person on the other hand lies in the fact that from the moment they become capable of changing the flow of their thoughts and feelings, of transforming their sorrow into joy, discouragement into hope, they tend to imagine they are also easily capable of changing the outside world. Well no, our psychic faculties bring us into contact with the spiritual world and enable us to live in light, love and joy, and although this world is a reality, it is not a concrete, material reality. The objective world and the subjective world both exist and rather than confuse the two, a spiritual person must know where the correspondences between these two worlds lie and must then adjust them so as to carry out their work effectively.
