How do you distinguish that from the voice of your own imagination?  There's a technique described in Napoleon Hill's book Think and Grow Rich where you create a "mastermind group" of role models (e.g. an inventor might elect to put Leonardo, Edison and Tesla in his group) and then mentally discuss things with them.  I've done similar things with purportedly fictional characters, to profoundly positive effect in my own life.

Quote:...I am asking you to "work" on the behalf of the land owner right now. Will you take up the Cross of Jesus and have your sins forgiven now?

I doubt that I would ever do such a thing.  The whole scenario strikes me as batshit barmy to the max.
