We have tried to understand numerous things about possession in the previous articles. The information was derived from the records of the people who were possessed formerly. I hope that I have been able to clear a lot of your doubts and maybe taught you something new. But, still, there are some questions about ghost entry that need to be addressed properly by a paranormal expert. The most important of them all is, “ what are my options when I get possessed?”.
Ghost Entry: How to Protect Yourself From Possession?
The aura around us protects us from being a soft target and getting possessed easily. An aura vibrating at a fast frequency does not let the spirit enter the body of the person. It acts as a barrier between us and the entities. So, if your aura is vibrating at the rate of 2000 vibrations per second then only the beings that are vibrating at the rate of more than 2000 vibrations per second can get in. On the other hand, if the vibrations of your aura drop to 1000 per second then, the beings whose vibrations are less than 1000 can easily get inside your aura. Hence, we can see that the drop in vibrations results in the breach of a person’s aura and can lead to possession.
One can also think of it like this- The aura is like the immune system of the spiritual dimension of your body. Just like when your immune system is damaged, it exposes your body to a wide variety of diseases. When the aura is damaged, it gives access to spirits that wander the earth to enter your body and violate you.
During my own research, I have found out that there exist two chief reasons as to why possession takes place in the first place. There are instances in which people invite spirits to enter into their body and then there are times when one gets unwillingly possessed. This happens without the knowledge or the consent of the patient.
Unwilling Possession and Ghost Entry
I am of the firm belief that a person is a spirit inside the physical form known as the body. When we die, the spirit leaves the body just like we discard old clothes once they are won out. The body loses everything and becomes unconscious once the spirit leaves it. So what I mean to say is that even when the person is briefly knocked out or unconscious then it opens doors for the spirit to go out.
I am not saying people die when they become unconscious but, it is like an opportunity for the soul to get out. Another point that I want to raise is that when we are unconscious or out of control due to some accident, excessive drinking, and doing drugs then we make ourselves open to possession.
Take for example – Anasthasia is used in hospitals to operate or perform surgery upon the patients. When the patient becomes unconscious, then the surgeons perform the surgery. But why it is like this? This is solely because anaesthesia forces a person out of his physical form thus negating the chances of any hurt being caused to him during the medical procedure.
What I have read is that a person remains above his body when there is a medical procedure being performed on him. They see everything and are fully detached from the outcome. Success or failure, they remain the same, unfazed. As the anaesthesia loses its strength after a point of time then, the body is again ready for the soul to host it.
The Soft Targets of Unwilling Possession
What I’ve also noticed is that people who are nurses, hospital staff, doctors, and the people who work in a hospital are more often the soft targets for possession and ghost entry. This due to the fact that they work in a place where people with weak auras come for treatment and also it is a place where people lose life constantly.
If a person had the vision to see the spirits then most people would be amazed to see the number of spirits in a hospital. Therefore, paranormal experts believes that hospitals are a hotspot for ghost entry. This is because, in a hospital, people often die in a state of confusion due to sudden death or dying under the influence of anaesthesia or other drugs used for medical purposes. They are not able to understand the reason for their death or the fact that they have died. So, there are multiple instances of these confused souls entering the body of the people who take care of them in the hospital.
Storytime…
One such story the ghost entry is of a patient who came to me. I cannot give out his name for privacy reasons and also because he was an alcoholic. He was possessed by a spirit who had died due to a heart attack in the hospital. The spirit of that person became very agitated about what had happened to him and he only thought of getting back to his body. He also needed to consume alcohol. Then he saw my patient who used to work in the hospital and possessed him. My patient started to constantly visit bars and drink. He also started to have a strained relationship with his wife due to excessive drinking. The obsession with alcohol nearly killed him.
The spirits that I am talking about are those who roam in hospitals or health centres. These are the ones who lookout for people with weak auras so that they can cling to them. When a person is suffering from a serious disease or illness, it weakens their aura and they become vulnerable to outer attack. Therefore, they become susceptible to ghost entry as per a paranormal expert. This issue is more rampant in children who can get easily dominated by spirits. Also, when a person is being constantly possessed by a spirit, his aura becomes so weak that it can be easily possessed by any spirit.
Addiction and Ghost Entry Goes Like Gin and Tonic
The activities that put people at risk of being possessed are drugs and excessive alcohol. Therefore, ghost entry is very often seen in addicts as per a paranormal expert. I have seen people who just tried to have fun with recreational drugs facing issues resulting in possession for several years.
There are many of my patients who have indulged in drug abuse and it resulted in them getting possessed. In most of the cases, there was an involvement of multiple spirits who were drug addicts themselves in their former lives. These spirits instead of passing on to the other realm chose to cling on to other people and quench their thirst.
Also, negative emotions such as sadness, grief, and erratic behaviour also harm the aura around you. This again makes you prone to ghost entry. It also weakens the protection offered by your aura. Another very important factor that results in the breach of a person’s aura is fatigue. Fatigue and depletion of energy are major causes of the breach of the aura of a person. The spirits lookout for this and pronounces it when a person is at his weakest.
Death of Someone Close Often Creates Emotional Disturbance Thereby Attracting Spirits
The death of a member of the family or a loved one also creates a certain type of vulnerability among the family or the friends of the departed. This again results in ghost entry. These people are exposed in the hospitals where the patient is admitted and also the crematorium where his mortal remains are finally destroyed. There is a high chance of them getting possessed as both places are a melting pot of a wide variety of spirits and entities.
I remember the case of a newly married couple in Bangalore. The husband died in a car crash and the wife grieved excessively after his demise. She started to write letters to her husband which was when ghost entry took place. After a point in time, she started having issues related to her mental and physical health. When she came to me for a session, it was pretty evident that she was possessed by her own husband as she was not able to let go of him.
I have also seen cases where dead parents of my patients were there with them since their death. They were not ready to leave as they wanted to be with their children and also were not ready to listen to what I had to say. So in most of the cases, the victims were unwilling to get possessed. They were also unaware of the fact that they have been possessed. However, there is another group of people who want to get possessed and open themselves to outer interferences by spirits.
Willing Possession and Ghost Entry
In this type of possession, people open themselves to outer spirits and are okay with themselves getting possessed by an entity. There have been numerous cases of artists and authors who claim that their art is the result of them getting possessed. Another thing that these people say is that the possession by the spirits help them to understand the aspects of the afterlife and death in a better way. This enables them to have a birds-eye view of human life and death which then translates into their art. Artists also claim that they also want to understand and decode the messages sent by the outer forces so that they can have a higher level of maturity than the average Joe.
The Ouija board also owes its popularity to these people for ghost entry as per a paranormal expert. People who are willing to establish communication with the spirits sit around this board. This board has alphabets and numbers that are engraved in them. It also has a yes and no option. The board has a wooden arrow on which the participants place their index fingers. When they are able to establish a connection with the help of a medium then, the arrow moves depending upon what question is thrown at the spirit. This to me is a really exciting process but it can be harmful if a naive’ person or a novice is indulging in the act.
Automatic Writing and Ghost Entry
Another way that helps people that helps people to connect with spirits is called automatic writing. It is a fairly simple way to talk to the spirits as it only features a pen and paper. In this process, people use their hands as a medium for the spirit. Then questions are asked and if the spirit is able to reply then it replies by writing the answer. This process, however, is dangerous as it might attract the wrong spirit and who can cause harm to the medium.
Storytime…
A patient of mine once told me about a very scary episode from her past. She was trying to learn to write from a medium and was automatically receiving messages from different spirits. She was jotting everything down as the conversations were rather interesting. One night she woke up to see that her hand was automatically writing something in the air. She was unable to gain control over the movement of her hand. After roughly five horrifying long minutes the shaking stopped. However, her teacher continued to get messages and lyrics in foreign languages which led to violent shaking that just did not stop. She ended up getting hospitalized. Therefore, what I want to say is that you can never be sure about such things so it is very important to protect yourself at all times.
Another experience of ghost entry is of a man who got too scared and was losing his mind. He called many doctors and complained that he felt very anxious and panicky as the spirit was constantly pushing him to write. Also, he could not keep control. He was exhausted by the constant pressure of the spirit to keep on writing. The doctors told his family to take him to a mental institution where he would be treated after a thorough diagnosis. I don’t know what happened to him. I hope he got well.
Ghost Entry and Possession is Not Always a Certainty
Hence, opening yourself to a spirit does not guarantee possession. There is no surety that one will get possessed. The thing is that it opens you to the danger of getting possessed. The main issue with this is that sometimes, you don’t know who is inside you. It may be an unknown spirit that has taken control of your body.
I am sure that most of you heard about the Hollywood movie “The Exorcist.” In the movie, the girl got possessed by a demon who turned her life into a living hell. Her case of ghost entry was quite sad as per a paranormal expert. She was like a zombie, neither alive nor dead. The priest who tried to perform an exorcism on her also lost his life during the course of the same. I am citing this example to tell you there a lot of exorcists out there have lost their lives. So, you can imagine how dangerous it can be.
Demonic Possession
Now, since you know about the worst aspects of ghost entry and demonic possession, I will tell you a story in which the consequences were not so hyper. Rani, a young girl seemed to have been under the control of some entity. She came to me and made it pretty clear to me that she did not need my help. She told me that she did not hear the voices anymore. The girl was short and obese. She told me her story. She made use of ouija boards and tarot cards to establish a connection with spirits. It was all done for recreational purposes and she was with her friends while doing so. After she went back home, she started to hear voices in her head. She was perplexed and confused.
Thankfully, the spirits responsible for ghost entry were benevolent and they were just trying to communicate. Rani became comfortable with them after some time and even asked them questions about her life and friends. They would give her answers in the form of writing. She thought that the spirits were her friends as they made her comfortable and did not disturb her in any way. After a point of time, she started to notice changes in the behaviour of the spirits. She started to notice that the voices she heard now were different from what she heard earlier. The benevolent spirits had gone.
The Voices Were Intense
The voices in her head became more resolute and intense. This leads her to drop out of college and she even ended up losing her friends. She told them to let go of her multiple times but the new set of entities refused to go. She was very disturbed and was having a very hard time. There were physical symptoms attached to it this time. Vomiting and suffering from exhaustion became rampant. Her parents got very worried and took her to a psychiatrist who told them that she was suffering from schizophrenia. ‘
Therapy for her ghost entry began and she stayed in a special unit for patients like her. After a year of treatment and medication, she was able to somehow return to her college. She further said that she did not like the fact that her parents took away her ouija board. Also, she was under the treatment of her psychiatrist and was reluctant to continue her treatment.
Seance and Ghost Entry
Another very common practice is called a seance. In this, a group of people sit in a circle and basically call out the spirit. They try and establish a connection with the spirits by asking them to show up. There have been cases of teenagers performing a seance and suddenly some spirit manifested which terribly scared the teenagers. The danger lies in the fact that if someone has a weaker aura around him/her then, they might be exposed to the spirit they are calling out. This is dangerous because there is no guarantee that the spirit is benevolent and means no harm.
We saw how the ouija board, automatic writing, and seances are used as tools by people who want to talk to spirits. A paranormal expert believes that this often results in ghost entry since people do not know how to protect themselves. We also saw how these methods are used to open oneself to spirits. Also, we discussed how some people get unwillingly possessed without knowing anything. I have tried to draw a line between the two chef types of possession. However, the line between the two is grey. At least I think so!
Some People Willing to Open Themselves
Some people just want to contact the spirits to help them with loneliness and do it in an unplanned manner. They open themselves for the ghost entry to happen but all is done in an unplanned way. This is the story of Mansi. It was the beginning of her session, she released a few spirits. After some days, she told me that she actually called the spirits to help her as she was going through some stuff. She even confessed that she was aware of all the problems related to it. She further said that there were so many entities in her that every decision of her was discussed and deliberated by the group of residing entities.
However, under hypnosis, it was clear that these entities were indeed spirits. I have a belief that the majority of my clients who were under the control of multiple spirits, and who suffered ghost entry between their therapy sessions were mediums. These people did not indulge in drugs or liquor. But their aura was so weak that even if they ate something from a hotel, their aura developed a deficit leading them to get possessed. So, even if they went to the hospital to visit someone, they ended up getting possessed.
Psychics are Prone to Possession
The reason why some people are more psychic than others is that they have an inherent ability to get access to their own minds. Most people do not have the capability to get into their subconscious minds and make use of it. Even if they know then they cannot make proper use of it. I am also of the belief that most of us know about each other’s subconscious minds. But, the information we get is not something that can get transferred to our conscious mind. That’s why some people have a gut feeling or what some people also call the sixth sense.
A psychic has the ability to tap into his inner mind as per a paranormal expert. This also acts as a hindrance for many as it leaves a lot of them open to ghost entry and possession. My data also points out the fact that sensitive people are more vulnerable to getting possessed. I think that it is due to the weakened layers between their conscious and subconscious mind. It is due to this that negativity is able to seep through the layers between their conscious and subconscious minds. Emotional issues, fears, memories, and traumas also result in the weakening of their aura. Also, their desire to help others, even entities cause possession in some instances. This danger is with them since their very childhood.
Some of my clients who were interested in the metaphysical aspects of the universe did continue with their pursuit of finding out more about them. I have always advised against doing so because it’s never safe and causes ghost entry. They always picked up spirits and then came to me for sessions and to strengthen their aura.
To Wrap it Up
Several of my colleagues from the US and Europe also say that they too have had similar experiences with their clients. But, they were able to help people because of their training. In a country like India, it is very difficult to find a legitimate person who will help you if you face such a problem let alone the training. Training people to avoid such situations can save many lives so we should develop places that will be able to provide proper training to individuals.
I am sure that you remember me comparing aura with the immune system of a person. I have explained to you the theory behind vibration and how it affects the types of possessions. Now I am sure that you know how a spirit gains entry into a person’s body and affects the way he functions.
Anybody can get possessed anytime. It is the aura around a person that fortifies him against any outer interference from entities. One must always stay positive and try to not indulge in activities that will harm their aura. It is also important to always stay in your senses and be extremely aware of the things around you. Awareness is the key. If you don’t feel like yourself, consult a specialist and tell him/her about your issues. I am sure that you will get help. Don’t neglect any symptoms that I have told you about in the earlier paragraphs.
My advice to you
Please remember that any physical or emotional discomforts a person experiences can mostly be due to various diseases or emotional conditions he or she is going through. I have seen that majority of cases do not involve paranormal activity of any kind. Paranormal events are extremely rare occurrences. Hence your problems should be first brought to the notice of a qualified medical practitioner. I have often seen that the line between borderline personality disorders or other psychiatric disorders and “spirit possession” is thin. Hence a good paranormal investigator should advise his clients that professional medical care is the first solution or remedy for any physical or emotional discomfort.
Remember, you need to be a sceptic first to develop into a paranormal investigator. You need to rule out every single scientific possibility that is known to mankind to identify anything that is paranormal. Hence travel through the path of modern science, explore and unravel all facts using data and what cannot be explained through science is what we need to explore more through the paranormal arena. Most of your clients may feel desperate due to whatever they are going through. It’s your duty to act responsibly. Guide them through the path of modern science. Refrain from being a doctor or healer. There are qualified medical practitioners out there who can do their job well. Avoid any forms of advice on religious or cultural rituals or for that matter any ritualistic practices.
