The Psychic Realm

The psychic realm is not the same as the spiritual realm. Psychic faculties and powers are not the same as spiritual faculties and powers. In fact, there is nothing spiritual about the psychic. 

It is unclear where this peculiar notion originated but it is certainly clear that it has never been held by any of the spiritual or esoteric traditions in history. All presentations and teachings of the Ancient Wisdom, in whatsoever nation and at whatsoever time, have always drawn a very clear and distinct line between psychic and spiritual.

The psychic realm is only one level above the physical realm and in fact interpenetrates it to a large extent. Bearing this in mind we can more clearly understand why the psychic plane, or  astral plane as it is also known in Theosophy, is spoken of as the unseen atmosphere surrounding the terrestrial and indelibly imprinted with every thought, word, emotion, imagination, experience, and action of humankind, past and present. In a very real sense it is a type of “collective unconscious ".

H.P. Blavatsky, founder of the Theosophical Movement,, was never sparing in her criticism and sincere warning for those individuals who would rather plunge into the psychic realms and psychic-type experiences than actually apply their minds, intelligence, and personal effort to make proper spiritual progress.

What is an Entity? 

For the purposes of this discussion, an entity is any psychic contaminant; anything perceived as outside of you that feeds off your energy or emotions. These emotions become the entities nourishment, their fuel source. It can be a thought form that has taken on a life of its own, environmental influences (the past remnants of severe emotional intensity), or external "dark entities" or "demonic  forces".

Demonic Entities



Demons rarely manifest themselves as they truly are. Their hatred, rage, and desire to feed upon chaos are hidden behind subtle and carefully chosen disguises, often manifesting in the guise of angelic beings. Rarely would anyone follow these creatures if they dared to show themselves. 

Demons have an extensive knowledge of human nature and the psychology of man. Demons can size up an individual and determine a plan of destruction for an individual or group of individuals.  Demons have the wisdom of the ages at their disposal and can draw upon that vast knowledge. With their penchant to exploit human weaknesses and their desire to feed upon negative energy these dark entities and demonic forces should be treated with deadly seriousness.  

• The Jinn, also known as djinn or anglicized as genies, are supernatural creatures in early Arabian and later Islamic mythology and theology. They are mentioned frequently in the Quran and other Islamic texts and inhabit an unseen world, another universe beyond the known universe. The Quran says that the jinn are made of a smokeless and "scorching fire", but are also physical in nature, being able to interact in a tactile manner with people and objects and likewise be acted upon. The  Jinn are akin to demons in Christian tradition, but the jinn are not angels and the Quran draws a clear distinction between the two creations. Jinn are ususally invisble to humans, but humans are clearly visbible to the Jinn as they can possess humans. 

Psychic Attacks



A psychic attack is the sending of negative energy with the conscious or unconscious intention to inflict mental or physical harm upon a person. These negative energies are typically projected in the form of thought from another individual, or from negative or demonic entities. Many different cultures and traditions, including Kabbalah, Chinese, and Indian, recognize these malicious spells and other spiritual attacks as a serious threat.

Negative energies, such as spirit attachments and energy vampires are far more prevelent than most people are aware. 

(A psychic vampire  is a term used to describe a living person who "drains" others emotionally. They do this either empathically, by draining the prana or life force or metaphorically by taking emotionally without giving anything in return. These so-called "vampires" are not to be confused with the blood-sucking vampires of folklore.)

One theory holds that demonic entities initially haunt  people to break down their wills and to create an atmosphere of fear and confusion. This weakens a person on physical, psychological and spiritual levels. Once a person becomes weakened to this extent, it becomes easier for a demon or other entity to take possession of that person. Demonic possession differs from a demonic haunting  in that a person’s spirit and body become the object of the possession. This demonic control may manifest in many degrees from mild to complete perfect possession.

Demonologists  believe that once demonic entities possess an individual,  exorcism  may be necessary, but that can often be a difficult and dangerous process. Therefore, an exorcist may have to conduct a ritual purification by undergoing a spiritual and physical cleanse to purify themselves through fasting and praying beforehand. Otherwise, the exorcist may become spiritually weakened and subsequently harmed or influenced, due to a demon’s great powers of manipulation. According to many accounts of exorcism, unseen evil forces or the possessed individual can frequently injure an exorcist. It is therefore critical that people do not attempt exorcisms themselves and that they seek help from a trained and experienced spiritual practitioner.

BE VIGILANT IN GUARDING AGAINST PSYCHIC THREATS !



 "Demons are like obedient dogs; they come when they are called."

Remy de Gourmont



Although spirit and demonic attachments happen to people through no fault of their own, many people actually “invite” these attachments through their ignorance, arrogance and stupidity.

Many people today suffer from negative spirit attachments because they simply do not know what they are doing or whom they are dealing with. They may be ignorant of the forces involved and not know how to deal with them when they are encountered. They may think they know and understand these forces and meet them with an arrogant attitude of believing they can easily deal with them and keep them at bay. Or, they may just draw them into their own energy fields by reckless behavior.

Sadly, the most significant source of negative entity attachment often comes from foolish and reckless behavior. You do not need to live a life of drunken sexual violence and debauchery. You can do just as much damage sitting on the couch and twiddling your thumbs and worse, you can sit back and watch while your children do it. When you "play" aggressive and violent video games you are manifesting aggressive and violent thoughts in a mindless and undiscerning manner. You have no thought of controlling those emotions and are most likely trying to intensify them for the purpose of being able to win “the game”. In actuality, you are offering yourself up as a free buffet of negative energies for entities to come and feed upon.

   Ouija Boards

 

Head to any major retail store and you’ll probably find a Ouija board in the kids game section.  Next to Monopoly and Cards Against Humanity? Seriously? Unless you are an occult practitioner or someone who has studied the paranormal, a Ouija board probably looks harmless, like any other board game.  

But talk to people who have had a creepy or downright terrifying experience misusing a Ouija board, and they’ll tell you that it is anything but. And there are a lot of stories out there that inspire some of the most bone-chilling paranormal books and horror movies. 

We know many people who had the kind of experience with a Ouija board that was so bad, they will not even sit in the same room with one.  Even if it is in the box.

There are those who wish to "experiment” with Spiritualism.  (The practice by which the spirits of departed mortals communicate with the living and the living can conversely communicate with the dead.)  As stated before; “demons rarely manifest themselves as they truly are” and the untrained individual can literally open the door to these malevolent entities,masquerading as angelic beings, who wish to enter in order to cause emotional turmoil which they will then feed upon. The Ouija board is a classic example.

Ouija boards and séances have been used by thousands of people untrained in spirit communication.  Both forms of communication are dangerous because they are usually uncontrolled forms of communication.  Most often the spirits are those who reside on "the lower astral plane".  These spirits are often very confused and may have died a sudden violent death, often through murder or suicide and there may be violent, negative and potentially dangerous conditions present when using these methods.

"Ouija Boards have a huge problem. The problem is there is no way to
arrange for a specific spirit, like a specific deceased relative or
friend, to come and answer questions.

No one knows why, but friendly
spirits don't seem to like Ouija Boards. Or they don't like the
company of negative spirits that are drawn to Ouija Boards. In fact,
the very last place you are likely to contact a deceased relative
or friend is through a Ouija Board.

Using a Ouija Board is like opening the front door and asking
everyone to come in. You have no idea who will actually walk in
the door. It could be neighborhood thieves, murderers, insane
people, etc... 

It is not that the Ouija Board is "evil" as some people believe,
it is that some spirits are simply not nice, well-meaning, or
mentally well balanced. Some unkind spirits find joy in frightening
humans. Others find joy in giving wrong or harmful information.

Thus, I must tell you that the use of the Ouija Board is simply
unreliable and surprisingly dangerous.

If you have a Ouija Board I strongly urge you to get rid it now!"

(Adrian Englinton)

Mirror Magick

"Demons love mirrors, and many occultists believe mirrors are a way in which to see into the spirit world. Many mirrors are used in movies and cartoons in order to see into the spirit world.  Walt Disney is infamous for portraying mirrors in this way.”

Psychic Defense

 

 Religious Exorcism

Religious exorcism is mainly thought of as the rite of driving out the Devil and his demons from possessed persons. Exorcism is mainly performed in incidences of demonic possession that is generally distinguished from spiritual possession. A general assumption is that the Roman Catholic singularly practices the rite of exorcism, but some Protestant denominations such as the Pentecostals and other charismatic groups practice it as well. These groups refer to the practice as "deliverance ministry" where gifted people drive out devils and heal while they touch the persons with their hands, ("laying on of hands") and pray over them.

The greatest danger to the exorcist is becoming possessed by the Devil or demon himself. This is the reason why the exorcist must feel as free of sin as possible and feel no secret need for punishment. Otherwise, the Devil or demon can easily entrap him. The former Jesuit priest and professor, Malachi Martin, stated in his book "Hostage to the Devil" that much of the success of the exorcism depends upon the exorcist. To Martin, the most important thing is the exorcist's disposition and those of his assistants. Very few experienced exorcists would ever choose to work alone.

The ritual of exorcism is more cautiously employed by the Catholic Church at present than it once was. When reviewing the conditions for demonic possession that were once listed one can easily see many of the symptoms are those of epilepsy, hysteria, schizophrenia, and other psychological disorders. So priests are cautioned to be as certain as possible the person is truly demonically possessed before performing the ritual.

Secular Exorcism

Spirit Release Therapy (SRT) involves identifying the spirit, the reason for attaching itself and detaching it. This form of spirit release is not new; it has been practiced by psychics and shamans all over the world throughout history. After removal further sessions of energy healing maybe required to the physical body, emotional state and aura to strengthen, balance, cleanse and protect. Also if the spirit has attached for a particular reason that reason may need addressing so that other such spirits do not attach for the same reason in the future.

Pearls Before Swine

"If you really look hard at the evidence, the most rational conclusion
is to believe that the demonic is real."

Scott Derrickson
