These individuals are in an energetically sensitive and &#8216;charged&#8217;<br \/>\ncondition, and their openness and vulnerability invites the vampiric entities to help themselves and gorge on the light of<br \/>\ntheir prey&#8217;s expanding awareness. Paradoxically, though, thriving on the absence of light, vampires can be said to be<br \/>\n&#8216;light-eaters,&#8217; as they draw and consume the light belonging to others into the cavernous black hole of their<br \/>\ncongenital emptiness. Economically speaking, vampires want to corner the market on energy, on light, so as to centralize<br \/>\ntheir power and control.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    Unable to generate the light-energy source themselves, they need to steal and use<br \/>\nthe reserves of the beings harnessed in thrall to them. The emerging positive-and healthy elements in the other person are<br \/>\neither co-opted, neutralized, or corrupted. Once their victim is cornered, the vampire literally wants to keep their<br \/>\ncaptives under lock and key. Paradoxically, vampiric wetikos try to destroy others&#8217; light, as it reminds them of what<br \/>\nthey&#8217;ve killed in themselves, while simultaneously trying to appropriate the fight for themselves.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    Wetikos see their job as &#8216;arresting&#8217; the creative expressions of love,<br \/>\nbecause genuine love threatens their reign of terror. The strategy of these predators is to distract us so as to keep our<br \/>\nattention directed outward, thereby stopping us from finding the light within ourselves, which would &#8216;kill&#8217; the<br \/>\nvampires. If we hold up a mirror and reflect back the insanity being exhibited by those stricken by the wetiko psychosis,<br \/>\nwe run the very real risk of being accused of being the ones who are crazy. If we do manage to connect with the light<br \/>\nwithin ourselves and try to share it with others, these nonlocal vampiric entities (what I have in previous writings called<br \/>\n&#8216;nonlocal demons,&#8217; or NLD for short), not bound by the 3-dimensional laws of space and time, will try, via<br \/>\ntheir &#8216;connections&#8217; to the nonlocal field, to stop, us by influencing other people to turn against<br \/>\nus.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    This process can destroy us, or, if we have the meta-awareness to see what is<br \/>\nhappening and are able to skillfully navigate our way through, can serve to further strengthen our intention, deepen our<br \/>\nconnection with the light of lucidity [within], hone our skill of creatively transmitting our realizations, and cultivate<br \/>\nmore open-hearted compassion. It is as if these psychic, nonlocal vampires are guardians of the threshold of<br \/>\nevolution.&#8221; ~ Paul Levy, Dispelling Wetiko<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;There are highly conscious forces whose sole aim, apparently, is to<br \/>\ndiscourage the (spiritual) seeker and divert him from the path he has chosen. The first sign of their presence is easily<br \/>\nperceptible: joy is clouded, consciousness is clouded, everything becomes shrouded in an atmosphere of melodrama and gloom.<br \/>\nPersonal distress is a sure sign of the enemy&#8217;s presence. Melodrama is a favorite haunt of these forces; that is how<br \/>\nthey are able to create the greatest havoc, because they play with a very old teammate within us, who cannot help loving<br \/>\nmelodrama even as he cries out for relief.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    First, they generally make a point of forcing us into sudden, extreme, and<br \/>\nirrevocable decisions in order to take us as far away as possible from our path &#8211; a pressing, exacting vibration that<br \/>\ndemands immediate compliance; or else, they take apart, with remarkable skill, the whole system of our quest to prove that<br \/>\nwe are deluding ourselves and that our efforts will come to nothing; more often, they bring about a state of depression,<br \/>\nplaying with another well-known teammate within us whom Sri Aurobindo calls the man of sorrows: a fellow covering himself<br \/>\nwith a sevenfold overcoat of tragedy and gloom [self-pity], and he would not feel his existence justified if he<br \/>\ncouldn&#8217;t be colossally miserable.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    The method for dealing with these adverse forces is the same as for the other<br \/>\nvibrations: silence, inner stillness that lets the storm blow over. We may not succeed the first time in dissolving these<br \/>\nattacks, but more and more they will seem to take place on the surface of our being; we may be shaken, upset, yet deep down<br \/>\nwe will feel the &#8216;Witness&#8217; in us, unscathed and unaffected &#8211; he is never affected. We fall and get back<br \/>\nup again, each time becoming stronger. The only sin is discouragement. In practice, the [sincere] seeker will be far more<br \/>\nexposed than others [for his\/her aim is a threat to the occult hostile force&#8217;s agenda].&#8221; ~ Satprem,<br \/>\nSri Aurobindo or the Adventure of Consciousnes<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  Anyone who is on the verge of a true awakening will attract the attention of these<br \/>\nforces, and it has not always the result of having negative thoughts or a negative attitude. The simple reason for their<br \/>\nsinister acts is that they don&#8217;t want to lose their &#8220;food&#8221; source, and so they attempt to derail you in<br \/>\nthe midst of your frequency shift (as a result of the awakening process). They especially target our own blindspots, wounds<br \/>\nand predominant ego-identifications, which are different for each of us. For example, if you have an inherently built-in<br \/>\n&#8220;white knight&#8221; syndrome, they will enhance your savior complex, as well as inducing you into the trap of<br \/>\n(forcefully) trying to wake up\/help others. Or, on the other hand, if you suffer from low self-esteem and self-pity (most<br \/>\noften due to past trauma\/childhood wounding), they will enhance the victim complex. Same goes for the superiority complex,<br \/>\nand so on. Anything that I mentioned in the traps section can and will be augmented by hyperdimensional interference and<br \/>\nthought injections.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  That&#8217;s why, in light of the awakening process from an absolute perspective, the<br \/>\nmost important part of the experience is to get out of the head and not identity with any thoughts which reside in there,<br \/>\nregardless if they come from our own internal ego-structure or are infused via &#8220;external&#8221; insertions. The way<br \/>\nout is by instilling a calm and grounded non-reactive state of being, anchoring to an embodied higher frequency, which<br \/>\nresults in activating our original blueprint prior to genetic modification so as to transcend the matrix. But before we can<br \/>\ndo that, we need to clear the vessel within, and that is much harder work than fighting the matrix externally (which is<br \/>\nfutile anyway, at the end of the day), especially when getting stuck in its 3D manifestations.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  It is through &#8220;mistakes&#8221; and attacks that we learn and grow &#8211; at the<br \/>\nend of the day, even these forces (whether they are working through others or targeting us directly) are our<br \/>\n&#8220;teachers&#8221;, making us aware of where our work is required within our inner-verse. When it&#8217;s all said and<br \/>\ndone, these are just lessons and initiations to help us become more aware and conscious. The trap lies in the possibility<br \/>\nthat we might get stuck within a lower vibration (or purely-3D &#8220;thinking&#8221;) prison, and get bogged down in<br \/>\nnegative emotional &#8220;loops&#8221;, projecting them onto others and the world-at-large.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;While we may not always be the source of injustices against us, we are the<br \/>\ncause of its entrance into our lives. The Matrix, even with all its imbalances and corruption by those freewill entities<br \/>\nwho have overstepped their place in nature, is nevertheless still a learning program entirely responsive to our own<br \/>\nignorance and weaknesses. It may be a predator&#8217;s choice to attack, but it is our choice to accept the attack and<br \/>\nsuccumb to it.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/all_uploads\/uploads5\/iulie\/23\/20500_2.jpg\" align=\"center\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    The Matrix Control System can only trip us via the elements within us that<br \/>\ncorrespond to its low vibratory nature. If we ignore our intuition, have blind spots in our awareness, or engage in ignoble<br \/>\nfeelings and behaviors, then these are the avenues through which we are had. Attacks serve to identify our own weaknesses,<br \/>\nthus providing focus for where to take the next step on one&#8217;s path of spiritual awakening.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    In the absolute sense the Matrix Control System serves to accelerate your spiritual<br \/>\ngrowth, and although its agents see you as the enemy, know that you can utilize them as teachers. You do not need to seek<br \/>\nthem out, for they will find you as you progress in your learning path. Most importantly, know that you will never be given<br \/>\nanything you cannot choose to handle successfully.&#8221; ~ Tom Montalk<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;There is always a spiritual test before being able to attain the next stage<br \/>\nof power. Each time you have to make progress, you have to undergo an examination. When Divine manifestations take place,<br \/>\nthey have also to pass through great difficulties and sufferings as a result of oppositions of dark and anti-divine forces<br \/>\nwhich have had a hold upon earth since the creation. Those dark powers always oppose the new Lights because they do not<br \/>\nwant to give up their grip on the earth and sometimes their hostility even takes the form of war on earth [created and<br \/>\ninitiated by occult\/hyperdimensional forces working througt their human puppets], but in spite of all obstructions the<br \/>\nDivine Will succeeds at last.&#8221; ~ The Mother, Collected Works of the Mother &#8211; Sri Aurobindo<br \/>\nLibrary<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>Trap of Paranoia and Attachment to Experiences<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  I see more and more people becoming aware of the hyperdimensional matrix forces and how<br \/>\nthey might possibly be interfering with their own lives, working through them or through others close to them. This is<br \/>\nencouraging to witness, for awareness and education about this topic helps many people to heal and work through their<br \/>\ntribulations. At the same time, I also see people getting caught up in paranoia mode &#8211; or the victim\/blame complex<br \/>\nkicks in. Oftentimes, I also notice (in some people I work with) that they are actually not dealing with entity<br \/>\ninterference, but with their own thought projections (based on fear\/paranoia) that have taken on a &#8220;life&#8221; of<br \/>\ntheir own and have become &#8220;entities&#8221;, so to speak, but are not directly-related to the occult hostile forces<br \/>\ninterjecting from a different realm.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  Sometimes people can also get very attached to their experiences and &#8220;story&#8221;<br \/>\non an unconscious level, while at the same time wanting to heal and move on (via a conscious healing process). This<br \/>\nunconscious attachment and inner contradiction results in an inability to fully let go and heal, as the ego actually feeds<br \/>\noff of the story\/experience by strongly identifying with it. Usually, there is an unconscious &#8220;self-importance&#8221;<br \/>\nor a sense of feeling &#8220;special&#8221; at play here in relation to having these experiences which define one&#8217;s<br \/>\nself-image (i.e. who we &#8220;think&#8221; we are). Sometimes, it is also just an underlying morbid fascination with the<br \/>\ntopic, and a part of themselves (the &#8220;predator mind&#8221;) that actually &#8220;likes&#8221; the drama identifies<br \/>\nwith this subject. Essentially, it still provides the frequency which these forces lock onto; meanwhile, none of this is<br \/>\nrecognized by the person on a conscious level, which shows how tricky it can be to deal with these forces in order to<br \/>\nestablish a sovereign embodied state of being (complete with energetic boundaries).<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  I see the same pattern occurring in the fringe\/UFO\/alien community, where some<br \/>\nresearchers and people who had\/have encounters with occult hostile forces (in whatever shape or form they manifest, and<br \/>\nspecific names we give them) are getting caught up in a tunnel vision, and tend to &#8220;forget&#8221; or miss the point<br \/>\nof essentially transcending the occult influences\/interference via sincere esoteric self-work, embodiment and anchoring to<br \/>\na higher frequency. While it is obviously important to understand the &#8220;modus operandi&#8221; of the hyperdimensional<br \/>\nentities and educate ourselves (and others) about it, we need to be careful not give &#8220;them&#8221; more power by<br \/>\ngiving them too much &#8220;attention&#8221;. It&#8217;s not a black &amp; white scenario and as always, each situation is<br \/>\ndifferent. This also relates to the Trap of getting stuck in the rabbit hole of information overload.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;We have considered the modus operandi of telepathic suggestion in detail<br \/>\nbecause it forms the real basis of every kind of occult attack. Whether it be a discarnate entity, a being of another order<br \/>\nof evolution, a demon from the Pit, or merely the panic-stricken soul of a selfish friend, clinging to the life of form<br \/>\nregardless of consequences, in all cases the opening gambit is the same.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    Until the aura is pierced, there can be no entrance to the soul, and the aura is<br \/>\nalways pierced from within by the response of fear or desire going out towards the attacking entity. If we can inhibit that<br \/>\ninstinctive emotional reaction [zero-point non-reactive consciousness, grounded in the body &#8211; embodiment\/soul<br \/>\nanchoring], the edge of the aura will remain impenetrable, and will be as sure a defense against psychic invasion as the<br \/>\nhealthy and unbroken skin is a defense against bacterial infection.&#8221; &#8211; Dion Fortune, Psychic Self-<br \/>\nDefense -The Classical Instruction Manual for Protecting Yourself Against Paranormal Attack<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;It is so that they [the hostile suggestions] must be regarded &#8211; without<br \/>\ninterest, with indifference. That removes the necessity for constant struggle which is itself a form of interest, and it is<br \/>\nas discouraging and more to these suggestions. To think too much of the hostile Powers is to bring in their atmosphere. One<br \/>\nhas to recognise them when they come and repel them, but to think much about them, to fear, to be expecting or looking out<br \/>\nfor them is a mistake [for it invites them]. It is better not to trouble about the hostile forces. Keep your aspiration [to<br \/>\nthe Divine, your embodied I AM presence] strong and sincere. If you begin to concern yourself about the hostile forces, you<br \/>\nwill only make the path more difficult.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    The worst thing for sadhana [spiritual self-training and practice] is to get into a<br \/>\nmorbid condition, always thinking of &#8216;lower forces, attacks.&#8217; If the sadhana has stopped for a time, then let<br \/>\nit stop, remain quiet, do ordinary things, rest when rest is needed &#8211; wait till the physical consciousness is ready.<br \/>\nMy own sadhana when it was far more advanced than yours used to stop for half a year together. I did not make a fuss about<br \/>\nit, but remained quiet till the empty or dull period was over. The adverse forces take advantage of any perturbation of<br \/>\nthat kind, for it opens, as it were, a passage to their action. Fear is the one thing that one must never feel in face of<br \/>\nthem, for it makes them bold and aggressive. Moreover, fear, calls the thing feared &#8211; it must therefore be thrown out<br \/>\naltogether.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    It happens so with everybody so long as there is not the positive siddhi of<br \/>\ntransformation by which it becomes contrary to the very nature of the instrument to respond to these vibrations &#8211;<br \/>\nbecause they have become foreign to it. Till then all depends on the vigilance of the consciousness and its will. The<br \/>\nrepetition of the response does not increase the difficulty &#8211; it only retards the clearing out of the invading<br \/>\nforces.&#8221; ~ Sri Aurobindo, Letters on Yoga<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>Sincerity and Radical Self-Honesty<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/all_uploads\/uploads5\/iulie\/23\/20500_3.jpg\" align=\"center\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  The most important part in the process of and work towards awakening is self-honesty,<br \/>\nhow sincere we are with ourselves. As mentioned at the beginning of this essay, lies to the self are the most harmful and<br \/>\nbiggest stumbling blocks in esoteric self-work and also the hardest to detect. As we gain higher levels of awareness and<br \/>\nconsciousness, we realize the responsibility we have, what &#8220;awakening&#8221; truly is about and how challenging true<br \/>\nfreedom actually is for it entails letting go of control (the illusion\/limitation of personal will), realizing that we<br \/>\ncannot blame anyone or anything.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;Forgiveness is the most fundamental forward movement towards the integration<br \/>\nof light and shadow within. Without it, we run aground in the quagmire of judgment and denial. It is the foundation of the<br \/>\nspiritual journey, which requires that we immerse ourselves in the waters of perpetual renewal. Forgiveness instigates a<br \/>\ndynamic that employs not only the emotions and intellect, but reaches the very fountainhead of behavior &#8211; the DNA<br \/>\n&#8211; setting up new neural pathways and changing the chemical balance within the Human brain.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    In this way, the electromagnetic field then holds a resonant support system for<br \/>\nforgiveness, creating an inner dialogue of compassion. When we forgive, we embrace absolutely our response-ability within<br \/>\nthe interconnectedness of all creation. The gateway to the path that leads to the transmutation of the life-death-rebirth<br \/>\ncycle is opened through forgiveness, and is the shedding of the first layer of mortality, initiating the journey from<br \/>\nvictimhood to creatorship.&#8221; ~ Juliet Carter<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  The more sincere we are in this process, the more we will detect the traps we can get<br \/>\ncaught up in, and the more predominant our inner voice (Spirit) becomes as it increasingly &#8220;checks in&#8221; on us;<br \/>\nconversely, the more sincere we are in this process, the less we&#8217;ll be able to pretend to ourselves &#8211; and to<br \/>\nthe outside world (and others) &#8211; of being someone we &#8220;are not&#8221;. Essentially, it&#8217;s about coming out<br \/>\nof hiding, dissolving the buffers and masks that cover up the real &#8220;I&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  Read <a href=\"\/moved_content.php?lang=EN&amp;item=20545\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the eight part <\/a>of the article<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>yogaesoteric<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>July 23, 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>&#160;<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Bernhard Guenther Read the sixth part of the article Occult Hostile Forces Targeting The Seeker (continuation) &#8220;In addition to the weak and defenseless, [these hidden] vampires seek out people who are on the verge of a quantum, evolutionary leap in consciousness, but have not yet fully integrated their realizations and come out the other [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[693],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22102","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articole-1603-ro"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22102"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22102\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22102"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
