Yes, demons exist. Demons are ancient beings or "shells" left over from previous universes according to some occult scholars. I'm glad someone has finally joined me in saying it. I have been talking about this for YEARS on my Dreamwidth blog. https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/tag/demons That said, reacting hysterically and running with open arms into a greedy religion's astral pyramid will nearly guarantee you remain as spiritually retarded and demon-infested as you were before. I will make a long story short. I am a former atheist and eternal skeptic I always maintain everything I say could be wrong. A wandering entity who I think may have been a god said to me "If you want to cast the demon out of the boy, then you must love the boy more than you hate the demon inside of him". After much meditation, I believe the entity is saying it is OK to hate the demon (especially since it is torturing the boy by obsessing or possessing him) but the foundation of love you feel for the kid has to be much stronger. By building on the good within yourself and within the boy, you become powerful enough to send the demon packing. John Carter does not have dumb readers that I know of so I know the lot of you will find much food for thought here. The reason I am fairly certain the "love the boy more than you hate the demon" statement did not come from my own brain is I am not that bright.
Thanks! The funny thing about hate is I don't see it as love's shadow. Remember when those BLM retards used to twerk at anti-Trump rallies? They claimed to hate him but their actions spoke louder than words. They were doing a fertility dance in hopes of getting Trump's coveted attention. Hate is similar to love because there is passionate involvement in both. The opposite of love and hate seems to be the black void of indifference.
I definitely agree - indifference is the opposite. I characterize hate as the shadow of love because it can't really exist apart from it. One loves one's family, and therefore hates that which threatens it, for example. Love cannot be created by hate, but stands on its own; hate, however, almost invariably emerges from love.
Indifference, meanwhile, does not require love as a precondition, at all.
I discovered your blog through this essay: https://barsoom.substack.com/p/pixel-valhalla Which is deeply insightful by the way, and I always love your taste in art and am curious as to where you find all of that cool stuff. The idea of hell being cold resonates here -- indifference is often described as "glacial" and not just because it moves slowly.
I don't have any one place I go for art, but I make extensive use of Artstation, which has a lot of very good concept art in one place. Other than that, I just keep my eyes peeled; when I see an image that grabs my eye, I save it, but also look up the artist to see if they have anything else I might like. If they do, a new folder gets added to my collection.
Which is getting a bit unwieldy. At some point I need to go through and catalogue it, associate it with descriptive metadata to make it easier to locate images.
Laughing at your last sentence. You seem like you might be capable of pulling it off 😉. Question was this all a vision or was there really a possessed boy?
Back in the day I used to go a bit wild with hallucinogenics. Been well over 20yrs since I have touched one let alone contemplated doing so again. You see some crazy shit for those of you have never partaken in the ceremony. Every time we would trip it felt like we were getting ready to engage in spiritual warfare. When you would come down you would feel so relieved as if you had just awakened from a terrible nightmare. Which is why I no longer have the will to do it. As of late tho, I must admit that it has crossed my mind. Just not sure I can handle it these days.
You're too kind. These odd moments with wise entities tend to happen when I am standing near my piano or my kitchen sink. There was no boy in particular; I was merely thinking about demonic possession and the entity attempted to enlighten me. I think my birthmother may have dropped acid. I think that's one of the many reasons she abandoned me at birth and never wanted to see me again. It could explain why I am so damn weird. Maybe I was part of creepy bargain with an LSD demon LOL. LSD sounds terrifying and that's why I have never done it despite many opportunities. I think it probably opens doors. Not all doors should be opened.
You are not as weird as you might think. Although the Nephilim wiere killed and the fallen angels imprisoned , Satan the Prince of the Air and the ruler of this world, still walks to and fro, seeing who he can devour. The end game is the elmination of men...for then and only then will he have free reign over this planet.
I have felt intangible evil since December 2019....but I know it has crept in since long before that. It is now in the process of killing the Western world, as its last vestsiges stand in the way of our total annihilation, but I am not so sure it will hold out any longer.
I think praying is a very very good idea. Every day, morning and night.
Most people know in their souls there is a Creator, who made us. Our job is to keep ourselves human for as long as we an, and pray . Pray to whomever you think of as "God".
I think we can safely say that what we call evil played their heftiest card to date in 2020 and are preparing the ground after a hiatus for the next even heftier card. All the signs are there. They have to tell you what their next move is going to be. Some big eye catching event will hold the world's attention while the manipulators move the final pieces into place.
That said... I personally believe that the manipulators are making it all up and no such entities exist or have been shown to exist for now. Books and fairy tales do not evidence make. They are just stories based on ancient drug hallucinations and other mind warping events.
Thank you for your response, Tsubion. I have a local group that I started along with a friend (a mother of five) called Speakeasy Illinois that was and is devoted to going around the boobs and schmucks, patronizing establishments that didn't force the masks, helping people get religious or legal exceptions from the quaxx, and promoting and in some cases forming alternative schools. I believe it was groups like mine that made it impossible for Illinois to turn into mini-Germany, mini-Israel, or mini-Canada during the demonic Plandemic, where a bunch of salary class hangers-on chose a demon from the Goetia over the health and safety of own children and their god, for if God was protecting them, why did they need to wear masks and take vaccines? https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/81855.html
Just my opinion here, but I don't think the manipulators (or the manipulated) are smart enough to understand the demons they've sold themselves off to for the next group of lifetimes. Not that demons are particularly smart, but they are cunning. Here is a fun blog entry where I speculate what might happen to the souls of those who bought into the 2020-2022 muckfest: https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/76360.html
I used to think my own conversations with the dead, night terrors, and precious few moments of spiritual enlightenment were all in my head too. I was atheist for most of my life despite being raised and confirmed as a Christian. Casual Christianity of the sort I was raised in is basically materialist atheism despite its claims to the contrary. Once I started doing daily discursive meditation, I began to know myself a little better and though I could be wrong, I think there were signs from those sessions that led me towards a different (very oddball) perspective: https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/4166.html
Some say the sense if not awareness that there indeed be dragons is universal, as if hardwired in the human psyche. Anybody who has no “inner demons” and never recognized evil is somebody I’ve never met in the flesh. Even if I did, I’d suspect they were in denial and then wish them luck with frail coping methods.
Speaking of Christian childhoods, your comment “love the boy more than you hate the demon” reminded me: “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear” (1 John 4:18). Not that fear and hate are synonyms, but love is a solid antonym for each. And I’m not sure that hate, per se, is evil. Previous comments sent me to 30 times the Old Testament (NIV) mentions righteous hatred. God Himself apparently hates a thing or two, such as everything evil.
I guess people holding certain beliefs and applying them to their environment works in mysterious ways. I don't believe in demons or angels or unicorns or fairies but I guess overlaying fictional entities onto the world we live in can be useful sometimes. We tell children not to wonder too deep into the woods because dragons, witches, and demons lurk there. Then children spend the rest of their lives overcoming this anxiety and trauma by researching the literature on demons and dragons and witchcraft. Some may even become witches themselves or priests that carry out exorcisms.
I believe that Base Level exists and that everything comes from there. Theoretical physicists say that we come from nothing which is obviously nonsense and they're simply changing the meaning of the word nothing so that they don't have to admit the existence of Base Level and that a permanent state of pure consciousness resides there. That's a leap that I indulge in the same way that religious folk claim the mind of God resides there beyond space and time. But it's impossible for us to actually know what lies beyond. Logic and reason and meditation and physics is the best we can do for now.
I wouldn't put my life in God's hands when it comes to radiation or jumping out of a plane without a parachute. The most praying can do is make you feel a bit better about your lot and certainly has been shown to boost health and well-being, but thinking you can pray your way out of dangerous situation is a fools game. Just ask the Christians that were fed to lions in the Coliseum. Where was their God then?
We have to help ourselves through knowledge and using the intelligence that has emerged from Base Level. Knowing that there are no viruses and contagion is a myth was enough to get me through the last four years without putting a foot wrong. The pain of watching all the people around me fall for the con was still unbearable and even to this day I'm on edge knowing that it can all happen again at the drop of a hat.
What I do acknowledge is the existence of psychopaths and sociopaths which certainly have an effect on human life as we know it and the manipulation of old stories based on darkness and light and the way those stories are mapped onto every aspect of our lives. That's undeniable.
Ah, to make that connection! You may be familiar with how Paul of Tarsus mapped it out. “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him” (Hebrews 11:6).
That’s good advice that no doubt I will follow. The door will remain closed. I only did it for a couple years of my life. To be honest, I am lucky especially when you take dosages into consideration (mostly shrooms). I do recognize that and no need to test my luck again.
The Sphere of Protection often "goes deep" for me and becomes prayer-like. When I finally started getting somewhat good at it (about 2 years in) it was like hearing symphonic music live and in person when everything before was on a tinny radio.
Yes, and perhaps deep meditation and prayer can get you there. There’s only been a handful of times I have been able to speak. I have been rather candid thus far and I see no reason to pull back now. It has only been in a certain state of mind that I have been able to find the next level. It hasn’t been so long ago but it takes the right combination of the right elements. It always hurts the next day.
There were times I had some problems. It would later be defined by sleep paralysis but I’m not so sure. It’s funny I’m a big strong guy. Have been in many dangerous situations over my 40+ lifespan. But that stuff scared me bad. Perhaps that’s because there was nothing I could physically fight. Some of those movies (damn that James Wan lol) hit me hard. It’s sort of comical, me being a second amendment guy, yet I totally puss out when it comes to entities from the netherworld ☺️
I had sleep paralysis almost every night between the ages of 16-22. I think it is why no horror film on Earth can scare me. I may get angry and turn it off or storm out of the room -- my particular brand of autism comes with noise sensitivity -- but I won't be scared. A couple of years ago during peak Plandemic, I saw a full body apparition in the forest preserve. He was the ghost (etheric body) of a guy who had committed suicide. There was no fear at all. I was surprised it went down that way. I always thought my "I see dead people" moment would be scarier. Instead it was no big deal. I think I may end up as an exorcist in a future life.
You could be my sister (sigh), but my mother swears it was just two boys she gave up for adoption. She was staunchly Catholic but simply wasn't ready for motherhood. I pray you are well.
I've dabbled in occult in a time long ago and absolutely believe that demons are real. My last nightmare regarding this was a suffocation dream where I was told deep in the bowels of Hell that I had to face all of the demons or I would die. I could not breath or move in real life, which happens in the worst ones. My husband shook me violently awake as I have told him to do if he sees me in distress while sleeping. That was about two weeks ago.
God has told me to watch my dreams lately. I think something is coming and much sooner than we think...
Ay yi yi! That sounds like a terrible experience on the astral plane. I recommend putting bowls of vinegar by your bedside and asking God to bless them in prayer. Vinegar scrambles the etheric bodies of the entities who attempt to suffocate you and steal your breath. Also consider printing out some bedside geometrics and placing them near or underneath the bed: https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/26916.html These patterns enchant, confuse, and distract demons and trap them in an endless repeating maze. By the time you're done resting/sleeping, they have exhausted all the energy they were going to spend messing with you.
The general state of the collective astral is GARBAGE right now, and not a day goes by where there isn't an astral crap-storm on the horizon. You're not the only one sensing it. I'm so used to sensing astral garbage tidal waves, at this point it feels old hat. https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/114692.html
Well, this is all relatively unknown to me, but very interesting (although I have never, to my knowledge, experienced sleep paralysis). Kimberly, I will delve into your articles ASAP. Thanks Luke for bringing me here.
What we today call angels and demons were once upon a time called gods. The transition of terminology was, in the cultural tradition of the West, been done around 500 BCE by Israelites/Jews.
agreed.and the other-worlds, or dimensions or the void, is also real enough. Pergatory, where i am told my ancestors are. I believe our ancestors can be relied upon to be helpful at least , when called upon.
I agree and disagree: some angels were re-named as saints, goddesses became the Virgin Mary, but demons were still recognized. Ancient grimoires were stocked with recipes for (foolishly IMO) invoking and controlling them, such as the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage. It's only in the modern age that we've tossed out the baby with the bathwater, with the uniGod religions insisting that talking with tree spirits, reading/studying Tarot, and doing hatha yoga is devil worship.
That's not what I'm talking about. What I'm saying is that Zeus, Thor, Ashura, and all the others are actually real, really exist, have actual abilities to affect the world we live in, and are these days understood to be demons.
The only change between then and now is a swap in terminology, from god to demon/angel, and the fact they aren't worshipped anymore. Well... assuming they aren't worshipped anymore ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Paganism ).
Gotta push back here. Certainly there are Christians who insist that the gods of the pantheon are demons. CS Lewis and Tolkien would certainly have disagreed with this - so do I. The gods are more properly thought of as angels. To insist otherwise is to imply that our ancestors were demon-worshippers for many thousands of years; the historical record contradicts this, for to the contrary, they were not evil men.
Oh yeah, and 'demigods' are what Bible calls Nephillim. Has to be: one parent human, other parent spirit. Demigod. All Greek demigods where of great strenght, fighters of renown. :)
They were not evil men. They were merely ignorant of the divine being's true intentions. And that's assuming they were ignorant, for Greeks told quite many tales about their gods doing all kinds of ungodly things. It has been two decades since I last read Greek mythology so my memory is a little hazy, but I remember it was actually Titans who created much of 'Earth' and Olympians gained control over it through insurrection.
The principal distinction between demons and angels - and as a Christian I can talk for a long time about this - is that 'angels' are spirits who are willingly aligned with God's will. 'Demons' are spirits that want do to their own thing without regard for God's will. However, they sometimes do God's will because they are unable to do anything else - they are bound.
For their own purposes, demons would want to be worshipped. However, God might bind them to do good, and teach people true wisdom. They do not do this because they want to but because their own limbs move on their own accord, driven by axioms of the Universe - which are in turn set by God.
Some of the ancient gods are undoubtedly angels - spirits willingly doing what God commands. Yet angels desire above all else that which God desires - that God and Men unite forever. Driven by this desire, angels would normally always attempt to redirect all worship from themselves and onto God. Many pagan religions attest to this claim of mine, when for example Greeks belived it was from Love that all things flow. Or modern Hindus have their Brahmin, which I don't understand completely but which seems to be a concept on the same wavelength as Allah, or God. Tao is absolutely suspicios of being a mask behind which God hides.
So, I'm certain that some of old gods were proper angels. However angles, Christians say, would never willingly allow themselves to be worshipped. Not so demons. Demons can absolutely be expected to try and insert themselves as objects of worship, since they either don't care about God's desire to unite with Men, or are actively oposed to the very notion.
This all leads me to conclude the majority of old (and modern) gods were/are demons with some angels who got caught up by circumstances. A percentage of gods had to have been just pure idols - pure vapid folly. And a final percentage must be ghosts - dead humans. Ultimately, it's plausible that most pantheons have one (or more) entities that correspond to God.
I can also speculate, I belive groundedly, on the demons' true motivation. :) It all comes down to the ability to act. See, in the general case, information is destroyed through acts. I just added two numbers together, and the result is 4. What two numbers did I add up? :) Now, some people like quantum physicists like to postulate the "zeroeth" [EDIT: ugh mistake on my part, it's "minus first"] law of thermodynamics, which says "information can neigher be created nor destroyed, it can only change from one form to another", but this is a wild claim given without any backing. Consider the hypothetical: you are a spirit - thus not implemented by subatomic particles, not existing in spacetime and before you is a black box. Well, it can't be in front of you because you don't have a body, but you have access to it. And the black box will add two integers and give you the result when you ask it to. You ask it and it gives you a '4'. Is this hypothetical plausible? Well, we imagined it so clearly it COULD happen. Therefore, in general, information can be destroyed. If anybody, like your friends the quantum physicists, wishes to claim that, in our Universe, information isn't destroyed - CAN'T be destroyed - they need to come up with really, really convincing evidence for it.
So, going forward with the presumption information is being destroyed in our Universe, that means the range of possible futures narrows the more time passes. Until, one day, all the free information is used up and the Universe enters an infinte loop where, first, everything repeats forever and, second and very important, the information of how 'we' ended up in the loop is itself lost. Now, clearly, no demon would want to find himself in such a situation. It's literally a prison. So, they need to somehow secure a source of fresh information. Well, the only place this can come from is God who already provided the Universe with it's starting amount of information. But they already decided they don't want anything to do with God. But hey, look, there's a lucky opening! God loves humans and will feed THEM fresh information forever! Therefore, the demon's master plan was and is to *capture* humans, forcing God to feed them information through channels the demons control and then obviously syphoning it for themselves. So I belive they consider us, at best, nothing more than cattle.
And just to complete the story, the God's master counter is to extripate humans out of the demon's grasp, make a brand new Universe into which he would shift those humans which want and angles, and then cut off the new Universe from the old and be done with the rebellious rabble. The rabble will never be destroyed, they'll just eventually use up all the information they have in their pocket Universe and enter the aforementioned infinite loop. AKA, they'll enter Hell for good.
Many Thanks to the Wonderful & Eminent Sir John for hosting my humble DOOM-wares for Inspection by his lovely audience (i.e. Denizens of Barsoom). Deeply grateful especially for all the patience in helping me Temper the DOOM with greater precision!
Per Usual, the DOOM was Smelted Hot & Fresh off of the Furnace & nothing at all was held back in terms of gloom & despair. May You, Dear Readers, All have a Most DOOM-full read!
Fascinating essay and I have to say that I concur. James Delingpole's interview with Jerry Marzinsky is relevant with respect to the malevolent supernatural forces at work in our world: https://delingpole.podbean.com/e/jerry-marzinsky/
I love your work, your brain, the drawings but your mid is marvellopus, keep it coming, I showcase you and ask my supporters to support you...hopefully it helps.
Myself? I certainly had my rebellious 'apathetic to Islam' phase...
But I have never doubted the Existence of Djinn, Angels & The Creator Most High in any serious capacity. Teenage thinking is (for the most part) juvenile & naive.
Thank You for the Query, & Happy to Hear you enjoyed the Piece!
No demons here, that's for the semitic peoples and their offspring.
Väsen, yes. (Sorry, can't translate it to english, there's no idiomatic equivalent.)
Powrs, yes.
Some hinder, some help, some do both or neither at different times. The basic rule is, don't bother them and they won't bother you. If you do deal with them, always uphold your end of the bargain: to renege is to give them power over you.
And show such respect as each is due - respect with its meaning in germanic/teutonic kultur: appreciation of ability and the honouring of someone for their deeds.
Not, as among the semites and latins and such, deferrence to power. Never that. Never bow to power.
Abraham was ready to murder his child on the command fo his "god".
No celtic, no slavic, no Nordic or sámi or ugric or fenno-scandic or teutonic deity ever demanded that. How could they? Only a slave-mentality culture where some think they are set to rule and others to follow because of a name or a word could behave like that.
If there are what you call demons and djinn, they only have power over those who follow the god who created the master of demons in the first place.
Ultimately God Almighty guides whom He wills. I have no issue with you disagreeing with the model I presented, & will not be arguing against your Theology, Heritage & Metaphysics.
What I most care about is whether you would Answer the Call to Arms when the Invasion begins & Trillions breach our Realms. Practically speaking, that's all that matters (a la You willing to fight on the side of Mankind)
The Greek understanding of daemon was quite different from its usage in modern English; a spirit entity, yes, but in a neutral sense. The Abrahamic division of the unseen into either good or evil, with no in between, is mistaken in my opinion; nevertheless it at least acknowledges the unseen, which is more than modernity does, and therefore erects some form of defense.
I'm glad you mentioned the Greeks. But I don't think even classical Greeks believed gods or daimons were neutral.
My authority is The Art of Baccyhlides by Anne Pippin Burnett who sums it up nicely on page 126:
“Most people are passionate and uncomprehending, but only a few destroy (or save) something of power and magnificence with their blind decisions. These few are the executors of schemes invented by gods (or by daimons [in this case Eros]) and recognized by poets, after the fact, because of the sublime authority of their patterning. A system of omens and portents is characteristic of such divine schemes . . .”
I also recommend to anyone who’s interested The Orphic Hymns by Apostolos N. Athanassakis and Benjamin M. Wolkow concerning the relationship of worshippers to the gods and daimons and their supplications and initiations into the mysteries.
To clarify: individually, no, very few entities are truly neutral. However, as a *class*, they certainly can be, i.e. encompassing both the malevolent, the benevolent, and the indifferent.
I'd say putting evil, good and neutral together in a single bag will not make the bag neutral. They don't cancel out. :) A better term would be "ambivalent" or maybe "all over the place". If you can put that last one into a single word.
Sam Harris is notorious at this... in his book he basically says 'Here's a Moral Landscape of peaks & troughs'... when in reality all he ends up with is this Pain-Pleasure nonsense which makes the whole concept of Good vs Evil Ambivalent. His Text is basically an Amoralist's wet dream! Shameful!
You can just look around our world today and see how absolutely wrong your take is. You’re as much a slave to the demons of arrogance in your very comment.
I’m telling you that’s not how that works and isn’t a logical argument to make.
Saying “they don’t exist to my heritage” is EXACTLY the arrogance I’m talking about. It either does or doesn’t exist, your heritage has nothing to do with it.
Does your heritage say what happens when you put a fork in an electrical outlet? Does your heritage dictate what happens if you jump off a seven story building?
You cannot seriously think your “heritage” dictates reality.
That’s “his” are subject to these influences. It’s the entire last paragraph, and it’s entirely wrong.
Also the division between good and evil among spiritual entities is because it’s a simple binary of “loyal to the supreme” or “disloyal to the supreme”
A wind spirit is good insofar as it does it’s job. What some might consider “neutral” spirits are then grouped in with the good.
I think people have not been really free for a long time. many people want to be told what to think and do. responsibility is hard for many people. this is why so many are addicted....
To be fair, I was able to infer you're a Nordic supremacist from you previous posts. To see that estimate vindicated is fun. :)
But that's now why I'm commenting. Instead, I'm going to directly challenge your statement: "No celtic, no slavic, no Nordic or sámi or ugric or fenno-scandic or teutonic deity ever demanded [human sacrifice]." From historical and archeological finds, we know Swedes and Danes have killed people in religious rituals as late as 11th century. https://www.jstor.org/stable/jj.5699282.17 The series Vikings even spends an entire bloody (ha!) episode on it. Season 1, Episode 8. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuhBDkIn_RM In reality, they were probably bound and the series makes one too many artistic liberty. They likewise did the same a few episodes earlier (Episode 6) where they depict a noble's burial and show the slave as simply standing still while her throat is slit. In reality, the slave was completely shitfaced and held by several men while outside a bunch of other men beat their shields so they wouldn't hear the woman scream as she was stabbed to death.
Your facts are wrong, Rikard.
And your interpretation of "sacrifice" of Isaac is also wrong, which we can see when we compare it to the old Greek myth of sacrifice of Iphigenia to Artemis. In the Greek myth, Artemis demands Iphigenia be sacrificed to her. Iphigenia is put through the ritual but at the last moment, Artemis replaces her with a deer and Iphigenia is lifted into the heavens to serve Artemis. The myth therefore justifies human sacrifice, stating that, while you are physically killing a human, in actual fact you're killing just a sacrificial offering while the real human has already been lifted to the gods. Meanwhile, in the Christian "myth" of Isaac, God himself stops the sacrifice at the last moment, states not to do it and demands an alternative (which he promptly provides). Therefore, the Christian myth UNDERMINES the very idea of human sacrifice and depicts it as unpleasing to God. This was very important and completely revolutionary at the time, as the Mesopotamians had been performing human sacrifices. In this way, the god Abram prayed to set himself completely apart from other Mesopotamian deities. https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/cambridge-world-history-of-violence/ritual-killing-and-human-sacrifice-in-the-ancient-near-east/15D2059982C482750124293D29EF55BA For the sake of my own time, I'll skip over the ancient Mesopotamian religion, but suffice to say God branched Abram out of in a very, very organic and mild way. Abram had no idea what he was getting himself into.
Humans sacrifice is going on now, globally. people offer up their children for the god of science like Maddie De Garay. Then they are surprised when the god takes them. They offer their children to the god of Education, who warps their minds , then are surprised they do not understand their child anymore. they offer their child to the soul eating screen deamons, then wonder why the child cannot listen to or have a conversation with them. If adult criminals are sacrificed by their own families, that is ok, not children.
My interpretation isn't an interpretation: it is what happens in the story. Abraham is commanded to murder his son and bows down to power (a god) ready to do murder.
Period, end of - because that is what happens.
That his god later intervenes doesn't change the initial demand or Abraham's choice.
Child sacrifice was the term I used.
Using a TV-series as source disqualifies your entire arguement as the events depicted in the series comes from a moslem arab narrator who has been proven time and again to have made up a story not consistent with archeological and historical fact.
If human sacrifice was carried out at all, which is far from certain, what little points to it indicates it was criminals and prisoners taken in war and not paid ransom for that were sacrificed.
The whole slew of stories about human sacrifices in celtic, germanic et cetera cultures is virtually certain to be christian propaganda, which has been well-known for over a century now.
That christians persist in spreading lies is sadly unsurprising, but understandable given that they completely lack actual fatih, only paying lip-service for profit in service of their deity of rape, murder and slavery.
Read your bible. Abraham's god endorse all three atrocities.
I quoted one other thing before mentioning a TV series. I knew about late pagan human sacrifices before the series came out because I remember when it was announced archeologists discovered human remains under some old temple, with "human sacrifice" being the most logical explanation (reviewing the evidence while writing this comment, it's possible I misremember and the bodies weren't found under a temple but under or in association with a noble's house, nevertheless bodies were certainly found). I was looking for that before writing the response but since my recollection of details is a bit vague, I was able to find only a book chapter on the overall subject and not the actual images I saw a decade ago. Fear not! Here, let's have National Museum of Denmark explain to us: "However, archaeological finds from recent years show that human sacrifice was a reality in Viking Age Denmark." https://en.natmus.dk/historical-knowledge/denmark/prehistoric-period-until-1050-ad/the-viking-age/religion-magic-death-and-rituals/human-sacrifices/ But I suppose children fell down the well. I wonder why they didn't have somebody come down the wells and save them. Perhaps because they died on the fall? Well, it still doesn't make sense to leave the corpses because their dead bodies would have poisoned the well. On the other hand, if the deposition of corpses was deliberate, then they could have been left in the well for 5 or more years before using the well. In that time the body would have rotten and the well made usable. So overall I don't think the kids' skeletons were at the bottoms of wells because they fell in.
> If human sacrifice was carried out at all, which is far from certain,
I hope I have successfully shown it's either certain or near-certain human sacrifice was practiced.
> Abraham is commanded to murder his son and bows down to power (a god) ready to do murder.
As one should, when confronted with Master of Life and Death. After all, why do people die? We could be like gods, just living on and on. Why die? Well, because God creator of heaven and earth decided we would die. He also decided on the time and manner of our death. Is it not his, then, to decide some people would die innocent, from human hand? We know he decides some innocent are to die from wolves or bears. What's so different in a bear fulfilling God-ordained flow of his life and killing a human to a human fulfilling his own God-ordained flow of his life and killing a human?
Obviously at this point, you've blown a gasket. Hey, that I can tolerate such things and you can't just proves I have a greater freedom of movement than you. My religion makes me free. It's freedom you covet, isn't it?
As for rape, I can't remember a time God endorsed it. I did a search on the Internet but I can't really find something clear. Perhaps 2 Samuel 12:11 ? That's directed against king David who had many concubines. Clearly concubinage doesn't count as marriage so the option of God taking concubines from the king and giving them over to others (as wives, presumably) is not evil.
As for slavery I again can't remember a time God endorsed it although I can remember plenty of times God tolerated it. He even had advice regarding handling of slaves, as in Ben Sirach. It makes sense he'd issue rules on handling of slaves. If the evil can't be rooted out right away, it'll suffice to constrain it so it doesn't spread. Ignoring for a second the question of natural slaves, people who's natural right order is to be slaves. Hey, this is a right-wing substack! We can ask those questions!
As for murder I already explained the basic premise. God is the ultimate master of life and death. All know this none dispute it. He issued a number of laws that protect people from before conception to their natural nonviolent death. That he also singled out some people for premature and violent death in no way changes the basic calculus: he decides when we die. And death isn't eternal anyway, not the bodily one.
Again remembering the entire business with Isaac was to undermine human sacrifice, set God apart and show Abram as a man trusting in God.
Materialism robs meaning from the universe and is absurd on its face. Christ has defeated the Serpent though he goes out kicking and screaming until the end.
"Be careful. The moment you start talking you create a verbal universe, a universe of words, ideas, concepts and abstractions, interwoven and inter-dependent, most wonderfully generating, supporting and explaining each other and yet all without essence or substance, mere creations of the mind. Words create worlds, reality is silent." ~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Two of the best writers on Substack nice job. As fairly secular man I must say a lot of the stuff I bear witness to seems Biblical in a sense. You guys forgot to tell us how to kill these bastards though. Am thinking something in the realm of a Plasma Rifle in the 40 watt range? 😁
It depends. If they take physical form (a la possessing people, animals, machines), pump em up with Lead, or Yeet them with some Toys (Mortars, Drones, etc.)
If they are incorporeal, Recite Loudly the Names of God Almighty & His Messengers & Prophets (Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, peace & blessing on them all!) to first cast them OUT... after which you may use your energy weapon of Choice, Good Sir, to Finish the Job.
Am listening to this now. Mike Adams is interviewing a Muslim guy who thinks Christians and Muslims need to unite. This dawned on me some time ago. Adams can get a little wild with some of his theories but his actions since mid October tell me he’s a good man.
traditionally there are many substances which are said to drive out evil spirits. i have found they are anti parasitic, in nature. wormwood, is such an herb, from siberia to peru is is used against evil spirits. it cannot be accidental. it cannot be co incidence. sweet anne artemisia is a zinc ionophore like ivermectin.
Both Jannah & Jahannam are 'supervised' by Angels.
Djinn & Man are the Two Creations of Allah Most High who possess the Faculty of Choice... therefore we both are Judged in the Final Judgement. Afterward, individuals from each Creation are sent to their respective Abodes (Hell or Heaven)
So yes, they can be killed... & made to meet their Maker a bit earlier 😉
Next best thing: cast them out forever. Forever is long time. Next best thing: cast them out. Ah! Finally! Something we might be able to accomplish! :)
traditionally, salt, iron, cold steel, and certain music drives away evil spirits. consider the singing that started off the Christmas armistice's. i think certain pine tress, Like the great white pine tree of peace from native indigenous traditions. herbs that are anti parasitic. you could bring back community drum circles, i am told this will remind people how to be more fully human. evil, or non life affirming behavior, seems to me to be a lack of full humanity. a void.
For the record, I believe demons exist, and the idea that they're orchestrating the events that have led us to this point in time seems plausible, if not downright probable.
But I'll propose a counter-argument (perhaps I can't completely abandon my Enlightenment sensibilities): what if we're conjuring demons because we just can't believe that our fellow man can be that evil on his own? I ask partly as a thought expwriment, but also because the practicalities of demon-slaying require a somewhat clear picture of the adversary.
It's less we are conjuring them & more we are 'intuiting' their presence.
We have within us intuitions about ethics, math & common sense. The Demon 'conjuring' I would argue... is simply another normal, healthy human intuition (for which I would be willing even to write a separate essay to examine the Cognitive Science literature on).
So yes, to answer your question... Our fellow Man CAN be very evil; but not to the point where you need such millennia old foundations & planning. & there is nothing wrong with appealing to one's Innate Intuitions to highlight this matter.
pleading with the universe that it is not "our "fault, would be human. good point. i think some people are incomplete, and as such, easy vessels for macrobes. to be fully human in a good way takes work, challenge. practice. Yuval harari, for example....is empty. He believes everyone else is too, Very wrongly. we do have to take on some responsibility here.
I thought so... I mean, I've always suspected the hidden realms at work, especially so since 2020 when the lid came off, and I've sensed it had an alien source of some kind. According to your blistering essay, too hot to touch at times, that alien doesn't necessarily mean off-world - although it may be - but the hidden hand behind man's malevolence. Watching this nightmare unfold over the past four years and then becoming aware of how it's been true for centuries, millennia, has been shocking to the core. So thank you for elucidating the matter with such accuracy and energy.
The Demon-Jab was a test of Moral Courage & Fortitude, which many failed via surrendering to State & Corporate tyranny. So yes, things will only get much worse now that these Malevolent denizens have gotten the green light to 'escalate further'...
I fear the demons you describe will take form, rather than as the humans they possess. At least we'll know who we're dealing with. For those who have simply no idea, well, it's going to be a shocker. Or maybe they just won't notice... I've often wondered if those of us awake are the only ones able to see. Considering the blindness of obedience, it could well be the case.
Collaborators like Yuval Noah Harrari are already envisioning Mechanical Husks that his Demon Masters (post-invasion) will inhabit, after the 'puny humans' are taken care of by his 'AI god' (translation: Demon masters).
So yes, it is as you fear Good Sir:
We will know 'who' we are dealing with... but as to WHAT they really are... many will not notice or will WISH to not notice. This is where 'ostrich head syndrome' will be manifest at bafflingly high levels worldwide.
This is a good point you made that many will not wish to notice. I've come across it already a number of times. In the early days of the plandemic when I tried to show a friend some official data which opposed the official narrative, she said, "I don't want to see it." She was jabbed, of course. It was also interesting to hear a few people say to me that I had what you call 'ostrich head syndrome' for not complying to the narrative. Such is the power of the hypnotic spell.
But as we are dealing with the supernatural, the hidden, should not your call to arms be also in the hidden realms? Evil thrives in darkness, in the shadows, where deception is possible. Aren't the weapons we need light, truth, love? Evil cannot withstand such frequencies. It requires the lower vibrations of hate and vengeance. When our words and actions are imbued with love and the light of truth, darkness is dispelled, or dis-spelled. The spell is broken.
Just look at the efforts to physically block out the sun, the light, the life-giver. We are dealing with vampires, the undead, who want to turn us into mechanical husks, as you say, and suck our lifeblood - as they already have been doing. The light of truth is their greatest fear.
I did think about being more Discreet; however the DOOM in recent times basically 'forced my hand' & so I had to be exceptionally Blunt on the Malevolent Beings among us exercising their gravitas. That said, you do make some Good Points that ought to be considered by all those who are thinking about speaking on these sorts of issues! Thank You Kindly for bringing them to the fore!
A good question,Personally, I don't believe in the 'supernatural', the 'paranormal', or any other such constructions. There is only Nature. But as to what Nature contains, this is the real question.
Exactly the point of my question. I'm not prepared to say what energies or entities might not exist. Perhaps demons or djinn (same thing, I presume) are real. Perhaps also gods, ghosts and goblins. Say they all exist. Just what then makes them supernatural? If they're in the world, and can affect it, and can (at least sometimes) be perceived, then on what basis do we classify these beings as entirely distinct from other things we find in the world, like amoebae, quasars or pine cones? Why do we dichotomize reality into natural and supernatural spheres? As far as I can tell, it's just a cultural habit.
The way I conceive of the definition is as "supercedes" or "precedes" nature. But, as John notes, this depends highly on our definition of nature. My own definition waffles, but I've come to think of it as "that for which the rules are highly testable and predictable to the naked eye/mind".
Yeah, possibly. But methinks we're gonna have to don some serious armor. And even then, we might have to accept that some rules are essentially more like guidelines.
Then quanta, if I understand them, can be classified as "supernatural." So too were once atoms and black holes and other now widely accepted phenomena. Gods and ghosts (if they exist) might, for all we know, yet prove one day to be empirically verifiable, in which case we'd have to reclassify them as "natural."
There are those who see the 'supernatural'. It's real 100%. Good, bad, indifferent, and a smattering of complete evil in the mix. Does it affect humans? Definitely. Can it be 'treated'. Definitely. Takes skill, knowledge and understanding of those realms. Is evil running amok in the world? Yes. More than 'usual'? Yes. Can it be 'treated'? Yes. But boy oh boy it's gonna take some doing. 🙏
The Islamic notion of the Djinn is that they can 'see us, but we cannot see them.'
So our world of size & shape (i.e., the material, 'natural' world) is accessible to them directly; but the converse (a la us accessing their realm) is not as easy.
That at least, is the Muslim's understanding of the Unseen/'Supernatural' realm.
This is a most excellent question! If we suppose all nature is grounded in logic (if you let a ball go, it falls) and if we further suppose spirits are also grounded in logic (if not, why haven't they already devoured each other until only one is left standing?), then clearly they have to be of the same kind: logical. And if we say "nature is logical", then that would basically make spirits natural. :) Although, obviously, a diiferent kind of natural than rocks or trees.
Even if this is a larp, the end result is warranted. When a pedophile dressed like a Slaaneshi daemonette pleads for their life, saying that it doesn't worship satan, that it isn't possessed by evil spirits. . . that is worse. That a fully sober person would commit abominations upon a child, it is a mercy to call that the work of a demon, for it gives a purpose to the suffering in some small twisted way.
"Of course only those possessed by evil spirits would rape a child, no human does that. To the holy execution chamber, with all due haste."
There is a lot of 'speculation' going on in my end; that said I have tried to anchor my words to the source material. If you go to Shaykh Asrar Rashid's 'Navigating the End Times' for example: He shows that most Islamic Scholars *are in concord that when the Dajjal (i.e., AntiChrist) comes, he will have a Djinn/Demon Army at his beck & call.
So it's not all esoteric & speculation on my end 😉
Yes, demons exist. Demons are ancient beings or "shells" left over from previous universes according to some occult scholars. I'm glad someone has finally joined me in saying it. I have been talking about this for YEARS on my Dreamwidth blog. https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/tag/demons That said, reacting hysterically and running with open arms into a greedy religion's astral pyramid will nearly guarantee you remain as spiritually retarded and demon-infested as you were before. I will make a long story short. I am a former atheist and eternal skeptic I always maintain everything I say could be wrong. A wandering entity who I think may have been a god said to me "If you want to cast the demon out of the boy, then you must love the boy more than you hate the demon inside of him". After much meditation, I believe the entity is saying it is OK to hate the demon (especially since it is torturing the boy by obsessing or possessing him) but the foundation of love you feel for the kid has to be much stronger. By building on the good within yourself and within the boy, you become powerful enough to send the demon packing. John Carter does not have dumb readers that I know of so I know the lot of you will find much food for thought here. The reason I am fairly certain the "love the boy more than you hate the demon" statement did not come from my own brain is I am not that bright.
Excellent comment. I'd only add that hate is impossible without love; hate is love's shadow.
Also, I thought you might find this post interesting.
Thanks! The funny thing about hate is I don't see it as love's shadow. Remember when those BLM retards used to twerk at anti-Trump rallies? They claimed to hate him but their actions spoke louder than words. They were doing a fertility dance in hopes of getting Trump's coveted attention. Hate is similar to love because there is passionate involvement in both. The opposite of love and hate seems to be the black void of indifference.
I definitely agree - indifference is the opposite. I characterize hate as the shadow of love because it can't really exist apart from it. One loves one's family, and therefore hates that which threatens it, for example. Love cannot be created by hate, but stands on its own; hate, however, almost invariably emerges from love.
Indifference, meanwhile, does not require love as a precondition, at all.
I discovered your blog through this essay: https://barsoom.substack.com/p/pixel-valhalla Which is deeply insightful by the way, and I always love your taste in art and am curious as to where you find all of that cool stuff. The idea of hell being cold resonates here -- indifference is often described as "glacial" and not just because it moves slowly.
Pixel Valhalla is one of my favorites.
I don't have any one place I go for art, but I make extensive use of Artstation, which has a lot of very good concept art in one place. Other than that, I just keep my eyes peeled; when I see an image that grabs my eye, I save it, but also look up the artist to see if they have anything else I might like. If they do, a new folder gets added to my collection.
Which is getting a bit unwieldy. At some point I need to go through and catalogue it, associate it with descriptive metadata to make it easier to locate images.
Contrast is what orientates our perception. There must be evil to recognize the good. One must know pain to appreciate joy..
Laughing at your last sentence. You seem like you might be capable of pulling it off 😉. Question was this all a vision or was there really a possessed boy?
Back in the day I used to go a bit wild with hallucinogenics. Been well over 20yrs since I have touched one let alone contemplated doing so again. You see some crazy shit for those of you have never partaken in the ceremony. Every time we would trip it felt like we were getting ready to engage in spiritual warfare. When you would come down you would feel so relieved as if you had just awakened from a terrible nightmare. Which is why I no longer have the will to do it. As of late tho, I must admit that it has crossed my mind. Just not sure I can handle it these days.
You're too kind. These odd moments with wise entities tend to happen when I am standing near my piano or my kitchen sink. There was no boy in particular; I was merely thinking about demonic possession and the entity attempted to enlighten me. I think my birthmother may have dropped acid. I think that's one of the many reasons she abandoned me at birth and never wanted to see me again. It could explain why I am so damn weird. Maybe I was part of creepy bargain with an LSD demon LOL. LSD sounds terrifying and that's why I have never done it despite many opportunities. I think it probably opens doors. Not all doors should be opened.
You are not as weird as you might think. Although the Nephilim wiere killed and the fallen angels imprisoned , Satan the Prince of the Air and the ruler of this world, still walks to and fro, seeing who he can devour. The end game is the elmination of men...for then and only then will he have free reign over this planet.
I have felt intangible evil since December 2019....but I know it has crept in since long before that. It is now in the process of killing the Western world, as its last vestsiges stand in the way of our total annihilation, but I am not so sure it will hold out any longer.
I think praying is a very very good idea. Every day, morning and night.
Most people know in their souls there is a Creator, who made us. Our job is to keep ourselves human for as long as we an, and pray . Pray to whomever you think of as "God".
I think we can safely say that what we call evil played their heftiest card to date in 2020 and are preparing the ground after a hiatus for the next even heftier card. All the signs are there. They have to tell you what their next move is going to be. Some big eye catching event will hold the world's attention while the manipulators move the final pieces into place.
That said... I personally believe that the manipulators are making it all up and no such entities exist or have been shown to exist for now. Books and fairy tales do not evidence make. They are just stories based on ancient drug hallucinations and other mind warping events.
Thank you for your response, Tsubion. I have a local group that I started along with a friend (a mother of five) called Speakeasy Illinois that was and is devoted to going around the boobs and schmucks, patronizing establishments that didn't force the masks, helping people get religious or legal exceptions from the quaxx, and promoting and in some cases forming alternative schools. I believe it was groups like mine that made it impossible for Illinois to turn into mini-Germany, mini-Israel, or mini-Canada during the demonic Plandemic, where a bunch of salary class hangers-on chose a demon from the Goetia over the health and safety of own children and their god, for if God was protecting them, why did they need to wear masks and take vaccines? https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/81855.html
Just my opinion here, but I don't think the manipulators (or the manipulated) are smart enough to understand the demons they've sold themselves off to for the next group of lifetimes. Not that demons are particularly smart, but they are cunning. Here is a fun blog entry where I speculate what might happen to the souls of those who bought into the 2020-2022 muckfest: https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/76360.html
I used to think my own conversations with the dead, night terrors, and precious few moments of spiritual enlightenment were all in my head too. I was atheist for most of my life despite being raised and confirmed as a Christian. Casual Christianity of the sort I was raised in is basically materialist atheism despite its claims to the contrary. Once I started doing daily discursive meditation, I began to know myself a little better and though I could be wrong, I think there were signs from those sessions that led me towards a different (very oddball) perspective: https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/4166.html
We don't need to believe in demons... they believe in us, and they believe us to be tasty. https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/111818.html
Some say the sense if not awareness that there indeed be dragons is universal, as if hardwired in the human psyche. Anybody who has no “inner demons” and never recognized evil is somebody I’ve never met in the flesh. Even if I did, I’d suspect they were in denial and then wish them luck with frail coping methods.
Speaking of Christian childhoods, your comment “love the boy more than you hate the demon” reminded me: “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear” (1 John 4:18). Not that fear and hate are synonyms, but love is a solid antonym for each. And I’m not sure that hate, per se, is evil. Previous comments sent me to 30 times the Old Testament (NIV) mentions righteous hatred. God Himself apparently hates a thing or two, such as everything evil.
I guess people holding certain beliefs and applying them to their environment works in mysterious ways. I don't believe in demons or angels or unicorns or fairies but I guess overlaying fictional entities onto the world we live in can be useful sometimes. We tell children not to wonder too deep into the woods because dragons, witches, and demons lurk there. Then children spend the rest of their lives overcoming this anxiety and trauma by researching the literature on demons and dragons and witchcraft. Some may even become witches themselves or priests that carry out exorcisms.
I believe that Base Level exists and that everything comes from there. Theoretical physicists say that we come from nothing which is obviously nonsense and they're simply changing the meaning of the word nothing so that they don't have to admit the existence of Base Level and that a permanent state of pure consciousness resides there. That's a leap that I indulge in the same way that religious folk claim the mind of God resides there beyond space and time. But it's impossible for us to actually know what lies beyond. Logic and reason and meditation and physics is the best we can do for now.
I wouldn't put my life in God's hands when it comes to radiation or jumping out of a plane without a parachute. The most praying can do is make you feel a bit better about your lot and certainly has been shown to boost health and well-being, but thinking you can pray your way out of dangerous situation is a fools game. Just ask the Christians that were fed to lions in the Coliseum. Where was their God then?
We have to help ourselves through knowledge and using the intelligence that has emerged from Base Level. Knowing that there are no viruses and contagion is a myth was enough to get me through the last four years without putting a foot wrong. The pain of watching all the people around me fall for the con was still unbearable and even to this day I'm on edge knowing that it can all happen again at the drop of a hat.
What I do acknowledge is the existence of psychopaths and sociopaths which certainly have an effect on human life as we know it and the manipulation of old stories based on darkness and light and the way those stories are mapped onto every aspect of our lives. That's undeniable.
Ah, to make that connection! You may be familiar with how Paul of Tarsus mapped it out. “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him” (Hebrews 11:6).
It might open doors, but that would be rare, at least in the obvious case of enabling you to literally commune with the devils.

It's mostly just fucking up your neural networks, like this trippy "AI" from a few years back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgPaCWJL7XI
Yes, you are right: Not all doors should be opened!
That’s good advice that no doubt I will follow. The door will remain closed. I only did it for a couple years of my life. To be honest, I am lucky especially when you take dosages into consideration (mostly shrooms). I do recognize that and no need to test my luck again.
The Sphere of Protection often "goes deep" for me and becomes prayer-like. When I finally started getting somewhat good at it (about 2 years in) it was like hearing symphonic music live and in person when everything before was on a tinny radio.
Yes, and perhaps deep meditation and prayer can get you there. There’s only been a handful of times I have been able to speak. I have been rather candid thus far and I see no reason to pull back now. It has only been in a certain state of mind that I have been able to find the next level. It hasn’t been so long ago but it takes the right combination of the right elements. It always hurts the next day.
There were times I had some problems. It would later be defined by sleep paralysis but I’m not so sure. It’s funny I’m a big strong guy. Have been in many dangerous situations over my 40+ lifespan. But that stuff scared me bad. Perhaps that’s because there was nothing I could physically fight. Some of those movies (damn that James Wan lol) hit me hard. It’s sort of comical, me being a second amendment guy, yet I totally puss out when it comes to entities from the netherworld ☺️
I had sleep paralysis almost every night between the ages of 16-22. I think it is why no horror film on Earth can scare me. I may get angry and turn it off or storm out of the room -- my particular brand of autism comes with noise sensitivity -- but I won't be scared. A couple of years ago during peak Plandemic, I saw a full body apparition in the forest preserve. He was the ghost (etheric body) of a guy who had committed suicide. There was no fear at all. I was surprised it went down that way. I always thought my "I see dead people" moment would be scarier. Instead it was no big deal. I think I may end up as an exorcist in a future life.
You're not alone, brother!
You could be my sister (sigh), but my mother swears it was just two boys she gave up for adoption. She was staunchly Catholic but simply wasn't ready for motherhood. I pray you are well.
I've dabbled in occult in a time long ago and absolutely believe that demons are real. My last nightmare regarding this was a suffocation dream where I was told deep in the bowels of Hell that I had to face all of the demons or I would die. I could not breath or move in real life, which happens in the worst ones. My husband shook me violently awake as I have told him to do if he sees me in distress while sleeping. That was about two weeks ago.
God has told me to watch my dreams lately. I think something is coming and much sooner than we think...
Ay yi yi! That sounds like a terrible experience on the astral plane. I recommend putting bowls of vinegar by your bedside and asking God to bless them in prayer. Vinegar scrambles the etheric bodies of the entities who attempt to suffocate you and steal your breath. Also consider printing out some bedside geometrics and placing them near or underneath the bed: https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/26916.html These patterns enchant, confuse, and distract demons and trap them in an endless repeating maze. By the time you're done resting/sleeping, they have exhausted all the energy they were going to spend messing with you.
The general state of the collective astral is GARBAGE right now, and not a day goes by where there isn't an astral crap-storm on the horizon. You're not the only one sensing it. I'm so used to sensing astral garbage tidal waves, at this point it feels old hat. https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/114692.html
Well, this is all relatively unknown to me, but very interesting (although I have never, to my knowledge, experienced sleep paralysis). Kimberly, I will delve into your articles ASAP. Thanks Luke for bringing me here.
What we today call angels and demons were once upon a time called gods. The transition of terminology was, in the cultural tradition of the West, been done around 500 BCE by Israelites/Jews.
agreed.and the other-worlds, or dimensions or the void, is also real enough. Pergatory, where i am told my ancestors are. I believe our ancestors can be relied upon to be helpful at least , when called upon.
I agree and disagree: some angels were re-named as saints, goddesses became the Virgin Mary, but demons were still recognized. Ancient grimoires were stocked with recipes for (foolishly IMO) invoking and controlling them, such as the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage. It's only in the modern age that we've tossed out the baby with the bathwater, with the uniGod religions insisting that talking with tree spirits, reading/studying Tarot, and doing hatha yoga is devil worship.
That's not what I'm talking about. What I'm saying is that Zeus, Thor, Ashura, and all the others are actually real, really exist, have actual abilities to affect the world we live in, and are these days understood to be demons.
The only change between then and now is a swap in terminology, from god to demon/angel, and the fact they aren't worshipped anymore. Well... assuming they aren't worshipped anymore ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Paganism ).
Gotta push back here. Certainly there are Christians who insist that the gods of the pantheon are demons. CS Lewis and Tolkien would certainly have disagreed with this - so do I. The gods are more properly thought of as angels. To insist otherwise is to imply that our ancestors were demon-worshippers for many thousands of years; the historical record contradicts this, for to the contrary, they were not evil men.
>>The gods are more properly thought of as angels. <<
Great Books of the Western World, Volume I, Syntopicon, Chapter I; 'Angel'
Reference I: 'Inferior deities or demigods in polytheistic religion'
... That would be the subheader which highlights & proves said point.
Nice.
Oh yeah, and 'demigods' are what Bible calls Nephillim. Has to be: one parent human, other parent spirit. Demigod. All Greek demigods where of great strenght, fighters of renown. :)
They were not evil men. They were merely ignorant of the divine being's true intentions. And that's assuming they were ignorant, for Greeks told quite many tales about their gods doing all kinds of ungodly things. It has been two decades since I last read Greek mythology so my memory is a little hazy, but I remember it was actually Titans who created much of 'Earth' and Olympians gained control over it through insurrection.
The principal distinction between demons and angels - and as a Christian I can talk for a long time about this - is that 'angels' are spirits who are willingly aligned with God's will. 'Demons' are spirits that want do to their own thing without regard for God's will. However, they sometimes do God's will because they are unable to do anything else - they are bound.
For their own purposes, demons would want to be worshipped. However, God might bind them to do good, and teach people true wisdom. They do not do this because they want to but because their own limbs move on their own accord, driven by axioms of the Universe - which are in turn set by God.
Some of the ancient gods are undoubtedly angels - spirits willingly doing what God commands. Yet angels desire above all else that which God desires - that God and Men unite forever. Driven by this desire, angels would normally always attempt to redirect all worship from themselves and onto God. Many pagan religions attest to this claim of mine, when for example Greeks belived it was from Love that all things flow. Or modern Hindus have their Brahmin, which I don't understand completely but which seems to be a concept on the same wavelength as Allah, or God. Tao is absolutely suspicios of being a mask behind which God hides.
So, I'm certain that some of old gods were proper angels. However angles, Christians say, would never willingly allow themselves to be worshipped. Not so demons. Demons can absolutely be expected to try and insert themselves as objects of worship, since they either don't care about God's desire to unite with Men, or are actively oposed to the very notion.
This all leads me to conclude the majority of old (and modern) gods were/are demons with some angels who got caught up by circumstances. A percentage of gods had to have been just pure idols - pure vapid folly. And a final percentage must be ghosts - dead humans. Ultimately, it's plausible that most pantheons have one (or more) entities that correspond to God.
I can also speculate, I belive groundedly, on the demons' true motivation. :) It all comes down to the ability to act. See, in the general case, information is destroyed through acts. I just added two numbers together, and the result is 4. What two numbers did I add up? :) Now, some people like quantum physicists like to postulate the "zeroeth" [EDIT: ugh mistake on my part, it's "minus first"] law of thermodynamics, which says "information can neigher be created nor destroyed, it can only change from one form to another", but this is a wild claim given without any backing. Consider the hypothetical: you are a spirit - thus not implemented by subatomic particles, not existing in spacetime and before you is a black box. Well, it can't be in front of you because you don't have a body, but you have access to it. And the black box will add two integers and give you the result when you ask it to. You ask it and it gives you a '4'. Is this hypothetical plausible? Well, we imagined it so clearly it COULD happen. Therefore, in general, information can be destroyed. If anybody, like your friends the quantum physicists, wishes to claim that, in our Universe, information isn't destroyed - CAN'T be destroyed - they need to come up with really, really convincing evidence for it.
So, going forward with the presumption information is being destroyed in our Universe, that means the range of possible futures narrows the more time passes. Until, one day, all the free information is used up and the Universe enters an infinte loop where, first, everything repeats forever and, second and very important, the information of how 'we' ended up in the loop is itself lost. Now, clearly, no demon would want to find himself in such a situation. It's literally a prison. So, they need to somehow secure a source of fresh information. Well, the only place this can come from is God who already provided the Universe with it's starting amount of information. But they already decided they don't want anything to do with God. But hey, look, there's a lucky opening! God loves humans and will feed THEM fresh information forever! Therefore, the demon's master plan was and is to *capture* humans, forcing God to feed them information through channels the demons control and then obviously syphoning it for themselves. So I belive they consider us, at best, nothing more than cattle.
And just to complete the story, the God's master counter is to extripate humans out of the demon's grasp, make a brand new Universe into which he would shift those humans which want and angles, and then cut off the new Universe from the old and be done with the rebellious rabble. The rabble will never be destroyed, they'll just eventually use up all the information they have in their pocket Universe and enter the aforementioned infinite loop. AKA, they'll enter Hell for good.
Correction: it's "minus first" law of thermodynamics.
Many Thanks to the Wonderful & Eminent Sir John for hosting my humble DOOM-wares for Inspection by his lovely audience (i.e. Denizens of Barsoom). Deeply grateful especially for all the patience in helping me Temper the DOOM with greater precision!
Per Usual, the DOOM was Smelted Hot & Fresh off of the Furnace & nothing at all was held back in terms of gloom & despair. May You, Dear Readers, All have a Most DOOM-full read!
Fascinating essay and I have to say that I concur. James Delingpole's interview with Jerry Marzinsky is relevant with respect to the malevolent supernatural forces at work in our world: https://delingpole.podbean.com/e/jerry-marzinsky/
Thank you for sharing, will take a look shortly!
Based Doom Merchant, Dhu al-Qarnayn
Many Thanks for the Kind Words!
I love your work, your brain, the drawings but your mid is marvellopus, keep it coming, I showcase you and ask my supporters to support you...hopefully it helps.
Deeply honoured by the Kind Words Good Sir! Many Thanks for the Shout Out!
Thank you, I loved your piece! Did you believe in jinn growing up?
Myself? I certainly had my rebellious 'apathetic to Islam' phase...
But I have never doubted the Existence of Djinn, Angels & The Creator Most High in any serious capacity. Teenage thinking is (for the most part) juvenile & naive.
Thank You for the Query, & Happy to Hear you enjoyed the Piece!
Well done and well written. Hope to see more of your insights on this, especially what our ancestors knew and how they fought it.
No demons here, that's for the semitic peoples and their offspring.
Väsen, yes. (Sorry, can't translate it to english, there's no idiomatic equivalent.)
Powrs, yes.
Some hinder, some help, some do both or neither at different times. The basic rule is, don't bother them and they won't bother you. If you do deal with them, always uphold your end of the bargain: to renege is to give them power over you.
And show such respect as each is due - respect with its meaning in germanic/teutonic kultur: appreciation of ability and the honouring of someone for their deeds.
Not, as among the semites and latins and such, deferrence to power. Never that. Never bow to power.
Abraham was ready to murder his child on the command fo his "god".
No celtic, no slavic, no Nordic or sámi or ugric or fenno-scandic or teutonic deity ever demanded that. How could they? Only a slave-mentality culture where some think they are set to rule and others to follow because of a name or a word could behave like that.
If there are what you call demons and djinn, they only have power over those who follow the god who created the master of demons in the first place.
To free men, daemonic forces have no power.
Ultimately God Almighty guides whom He wills. I have no issue with you disagreeing with the model I presented, & will not be arguing against your Theology, Heritage & Metaphysics.
What I most care about is whether you would Answer the Call to Arms when the Invasion begins & Trillions breach our Realms. Practically speaking, that's all that matters (a la You willing to fight on the side of Mankind)
If you know what Ragnarök is, you know my answer to that.
Thank You Kindly Fren!
Jörmungandr kommer
And is defeated.
Grass will grow anew on Idavallen, where the heroes gather after Ragnarök.
The Greek understanding of daemon was quite different from its usage in modern English; a spirit entity, yes, but in a neutral sense. The Abrahamic division of the unseen into either good or evil, with no in between, is mistaken in my opinion; nevertheless it at least acknowledges the unseen, which is more than modernity does, and therefore erects some form of defense.
I'm glad you mentioned the Greeks. But I don't think even classical Greeks believed gods or daimons were neutral.
My authority is The Art of Baccyhlides by Anne Pippin Burnett who sums it up nicely on page 126:
“Most people are passionate and uncomprehending, but only a few destroy (or save) something of power and magnificence with their blind decisions. These few are the executors of schemes invented by gods (or by daimons [in this case Eros]) and recognized by poets, after the fact, because of the sublime authority of their patterning. A system of omens and portents is characteristic of such divine schemes . . .”
I also recommend to anyone who’s interested The Orphic Hymns by Apostolos N. Athanassakis and Benjamin M. Wolkow concerning the relationship of worshippers to the gods and daimons and their supplications and initiations into the mysteries.
Thanks for publishing this article.
To clarify: individually, no, very few entities are truly neutral. However, as a *class*, they certainly can be, i.e. encompassing both the malevolent, the benevolent, and the indifferent.
I'd say putting evil, good and neutral together in a single bag will not make the bag neutral. They don't cancel out. :) A better term would be "ambivalent" or maybe "all over the place". If you can put that last one into a single word.
Y'all are autistic. I simply meant that the Greek term implied no particular alignment on its own.
Lol.
Sam Harris is notorious at this... in his book he basically says 'Here's a Moral Landscape of peaks & troughs'... when in reality all he ends up with is this Pain-Pleasure nonsense which makes the whole concept of Good vs Evil Ambivalent. His Text is basically an Amoralist's wet dream! Shameful!
Not directly no. But we are ruled by people who are totally given over to the dark side, and men can kill and destroy.
Think of it as a proxy war.
You can just look around our world today and see how absolutely wrong your take is. You’re as much a slave to the demons of arrogance in your very comment.
Nope.
Not baptised so my soul hasn't been offered up to the god of Abraham.
Therefore, I'm free.
I’m telling you that’s not how that works and isn’t a logical argument to make.
Saying “they don’t exist to my heritage” is EXACTLY the arrogance I’m talking about. It either does or doesn’t exist, your heritage has nothing to do with it.
My heritage has everything to do with it.
Does your heritage say what happens when you put a fork in an electrical outlet? Does your heritage dictate what happens if you jump off a seven story building?
You cannot seriously think your “heritage” dictates reality.
Because he doesn't share your Abrahamic spiritual priors?
Because he denies the obvious facts around him to trash others.
Read his comment carefully. What exactly is he denying?
That’s “his” are subject to these influences. It’s the entire last paragraph, and it’s entirely wrong.
Also the division between good and evil among spiritual entities is because it’s a simple binary of “loyal to the supreme” or “disloyal to the supreme”
A wind spirit is good insofar as it does it’s job. What some might consider “neutral” spirits are then grouped in with the good.
Demons/djinn simply do not exist in my cultural heritage, period.
Correction of a typo: that “his” are *not* subject to demonic influences
I think people have not been really free for a long time. many people want to be told what to think and do. responsibility is hard for many people. this is why so many are addicted....
To be fair, I was able to infer you're a Nordic supremacist from you previous posts. To see that estimate vindicated is fun. :)
But that's now why I'm commenting. Instead, I'm going to directly challenge your statement: "No celtic, no slavic, no Nordic or sámi or ugric or fenno-scandic or teutonic deity ever demanded [human sacrifice]." From historical and archeological finds, we know Swedes and Danes have killed people in religious rituals as late as 11th century. https://www.jstor.org/stable/jj.5699282.17 The series Vikings even spends an entire bloody (ha!) episode on it. Season 1, Episode 8. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuhBDkIn_RM In reality, they were probably bound and the series makes one too many artistic liberty. They likewise did the same a few episodes earlier (Episode 6) where they depict a noble's burial and show the slave as simply standing still while her throat is slit. In reality, the slave was completely shitfaced and held by several men while outside a bunch of other men beat their shields so they wouldn't hear the woman scream as she was stabbed to death.
Your facts are wrong, Rikard.
And your interpretation of "sacrifice" of Isaac is also wrong, which we can see when we compare it to the old Greek myth of sacrifice of Iphigenia to Artemis. In the Greek myth, Artemis demands Iphigenia be sacrificed to her. Iphigenia is put through the ritual but at the last moment, Artemis replaces her with a deer and Iphigenia is lifted into the heavens to serve Artemis. The myth therefore justifies human sacrifice, stating that, while you are physically killing a human, in actual fact you're killing just a sacrificial offering while the real human has already been lifted to the gods. Meanwhile, in the Christian "myth" of Isaac, God himself stops the sacrifice at the last moment, states not to do it and demands an alternative (which he promptly provides). Therefore, the Christian myth UNDERMINES the very idea of human sacrifice and depicts it as unpleasing to God. This was very important and completely revolutionary at the time, as the Mesopotamians had been performing human sacrifices. In this way, the god Abram prayed to set himself completely apart from other Mesopotamian deities. https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/cambridge-world-history-of-violence/ritual-killing-and-human-sacrifice-in-the-ancient-near-east/15D2059982C482750124293D29EF55BA For the sake of my own time, I'll skip over the ancient Mesopotamian religion, but suffice to say God branched Abram out of in a very, very organic and mild way. Abram had no idea what he was getting himself into.
Humans sacrifice is going on now, globally. people offer up their children for the god of science like Maddie De Garay. Then they are surprised when the god takes them. They offer their children to the god of Education, who warps their minds , then are surprised they do not understand their child anymore. they offer their child to the soul eating screen deamons, then wonder why the child cannot listen to or have a conversation with them. If adult criminals are sacrificed by their own families, that is ok, not children.
And then they are fed into the human meatgrinder in various theaters of war that are always burning somewhere on the planet.
My interpretation isn't an interpretation: it is what happens in the story. Abraham is commanded to murder his son and bows down to power (a god) ready to do murder.
Period, end of - because that is what happens.
That his god later intervenes doesn't change the initial demand or Abraham's choice.
Child sacrifice was the term I used.
Using a TV-series as source disqualifies your entire arguement as the events depicted in the series comes from a moslem arab narrator who has been proven time and again to have made up a story not consistent with archeological and historical fact.
If human sacrifice was carried out at all, which is far from certain, what little points to it indicates it was criminals and prisoners taken in war and not paid ransom for that were sacrificed.
The whole slew of stories about human sacrifices in celtic, germanic et cetera cultures is virtually certain to be christian propaganda, which has been well-known for over a century now.
That christians persist in spreading lies is sadly unsurprising, but understandable given that they completely lack actual fatih, only paying lip-service for profit in service of their deity of rape, murder and slavery.
Read your bible. Abraham's god endorse all three atrocities.
I quoted one other thing before mentioning a TV series. I knew about late pagan human sacrifices before the series came out because I remember when it was announced archeologists discovered human remains under some old temple, with "human sacrifice" being the most logical explanation (reviewing the evidence while writing this comment, it's possible I misremember and the bodies weren't found under a temple but under or in association with a noble's house, nevertheless bodies were certainly found). I was looking for that before writing the response but since my recollection of details is a bit vague, I was able to find only a book chapter on the overall subject and not the actual images I saw a decade ago. Fear not! Here, let's have National Museum of Denmark explain to us: "However, archaeological finds from recent years show that human sacrifice was a reality in Viking Age Denmark." https://en.natmus.dk/historical-knowledge/denmark/prehistoric-period-until-1050-ad/the-viking-age/religion-magic-death-and-rituals/human-sacrifices/ But I suppose children fell down the well. I wonder why they didn't have somebody come down the wells and save them. Perhaps because they died on the fall? Well, it still doesn't make sense to leave the corpses because their dead bodies would have poisoned the well. On the other hand, if the deposition of corpses was deliberate, then they could have been left in the well for 5 or more years before using the well. In that time the body would have rotten and the well made usable. So overall I don't think the kids' skeletons were at the bottoms of wells because they fell in.
> If human sacrifice was carried out at all, which is far from certain,
I hope I have successfully shown it's either certain or near-certain human sacrifice was practiced.
> Abraham is commanded to murder his son and bows down to power (a god) ready to do murder.
As one should, when confronted with Master of Life and Death. After all, why do people die? We could be like gods, just living on and on. Why die? Well, because God creator of heaven and earth decided we would die. He also decided on the time and manner of our death. Is it not his, then, to decide some people would die innocent, from human hand? We know he decides some innocent are to die from wolves or bears. What's so different in a bear fulfilling God-ordained flow of his life and killing a human to a human fulfilling his own God-ordained flow of his life and killing a human?
Obviously at this point, you've blown a gasket. Hey, that I can tolerate such things and you can't just proves I have a greater freedom of movement than you. My religion makes me free. It's freedom you covet, isn't it?
As for rape, I can't remember a time God endorsed it. I did a search on the Internet but I can't really find something clear. Perhaps 2 Samuel 12:11 ? That's directed against king David who had many concubines. Clearly concubinage doesn't count as marriage so the option of God taking concubines from the king and giving them over to others (as wives, presumably) is not evil.
As for slavery I again can't remember a time God endorsed it although I can remember plenty of times God tolerated it. He even had advice regarding handling of slaves, as in Ben Sirach. It makes sense he'd issue rules on handling of slaves. If the evil can't be rooted out right away, it'll suffice to constrain it so it doesn't spread. Ignoring for a second the question of natural slaves, people who's natural right order is to be slaves. Hey, this is a right-wing substack! We can ask those questions!
As for murder I already explained the basic premise. God is the ultimate master of life and death. All know this none dispute it. He issued a number of laws that protect people from before conception to their natural nonviolent death. That he also singled out some people for premature and violent death in no way changes the basic calculus: he decides when we die. And death isn't eternal anyway, not the bodily one.
Again remembering the entire business with Isaac was to undermine human sacrifice, set God apart and show Abram as a man trusting in God.
That's what Dostoevsky thought about the radicals of 19th C Russia and the mass murders that happened after the bolshevik revolution proved him right.
His intuitions were Sound; alas the Materialist FOOLs of the 20th century almost all ignored his many warnings.
It's all fun and games until you need an old priest and a young priest.
Well, it's the least that can be done considering the Trillions of foes about to breach in...
Materialism robs meaning from the universe and is absurd on its face. Christ has defeated the Serpent though he goes out kicking and screaming until the end.

Excellent Quote; Many Thanks Good Sir for sharing!
That first image is a painting by artist Scott Johnson. It’s the cover to the Rifts Ultimate Edition tabletop RPG book.
King!
I spent several minutes on Google image search without being able to identify the artist. Much appreciated.
And fixed! With an acknowledgement in the caption.
I shall correct it on my Stack as well. Many Thanks Good sir!
Two of the best writers on Substack nice job. As fairly secular man I must say a lot of the stuff I bear witness to seems Biblical in a sense. You guys forgot to tell us how to kill these bastards though. Am thinking something in the realm of a Plasma Rifle in the 40 watt range? 😁
It depends. If they take physical form (a la possessing people, animals, machines), pump em up with Lead, or Yeet them with some Toys (Mortars, Drones, etc.)
If they are incorporeal, Recite Loudly the Names of God Almighty & His Messengers & Prophets (Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, peace & blessing on them all!) to first cast them OUT... after which you may use your energy weapon of Choice, Good Sir, to Finish the Job.
Am listening to this now. Mike Adams is interviewing a Muslim guy who thinks Christians and Muslims need to unite. This dawned on me some time ago. Adams can get a little wild with some of his theories but his actions since mid October tell me he’s a good man.

Thank You for Sharing, will have a look!
people of good faith all, not just people of the books had better organize. better stand together, than to hang separately.
At some point, we are also going to have to add portable EMPs, compressed nitrogen and, yes, flamethrowers to the conversation.
Yes Sir 🫡
fire has always been used to purify. the enemy uses it too.
traditionally there are many substances which are said to drive out evil spirits. i have found they are anti parasitic, in nature. wormwood, is such an herb, from siberia to peru is is used against evil spirits. it cannot be accidental. it cannot be co incidence. sweet anne artemisia is a zinc ionophore like ivermectin.
If killing them were possible, there wouldn't be a Hell.
Both Jannah & Jahannam are 'supervised' by Angels.
Djinn & Man are the Two Creations of Allah Most High who possess the Faculty of Choice... therefore we both are Judged in the Final Judgement. Afterward, individuals from each Creation are sent to their respective Abodes (Hell or Heaven)
So yes, they can be killed... & made to meet their Maker a bit earlier 😉
Ah yes. I meant "if ending their existence were possible...". xD But it isn't, which is why they have to be placed somewhere.
Touché lol
Next best thing: cast them out forever. Forever is long time. Next best thing: cast them out. Ah! Finally! Something we might be able to accomplish! :)
traditionally, salt, iron, cold steel, and certain music drives away evil spirits. consider the singing that started off the Christmas armistice's. i think certain pine tress, Like the great white pine tree of peace from native indigenous traditions. herbs that are anti parasitic. you could bring back community drum circles, i am told this will remind people how to be more fully human. evil, or non life affirming behavior, seems to me to be a lack of full humanity. a void.
For the record, I believe demons exist, and the idea that they're orchestrating the events that have led us to this point in time seems plausible, if not downright probable.
But I'll propose a counter-argument (perhaps I can't completely abandon my Enlightenment sensibilities): what if we're conjuring demons because we just can't believe that our fellow man can be that evil on his own? I ask partly as a thought expwriment, but also because the practicalities of demon-slaying require a somewhat clear picture of the adversary.
It's less we are conjuring them & more we are 'intuiting' their presence.
We have within us intuitions about ethics, math & common sense. The Demon 'conjuring' I would argue... is simply another normal, healthy human intuition (for which I would be willing even to write a separate essay to examine the Cognitive Science literature on).
So yes, to answer your question... Our fellow Man CAN be very evil; but not to the point where you need such millennia old foundations & planning. & there is nothing wrong with appealing to one's Innate Intuitions to highlight this matter.
what ever they believe they will get from "their" plan, is probably a lie anyway.
pleading with the universe that it is not "our "fault, would be human. good point. i think some people are incomplete, and as such, easy vessels for macrobes. to be fully human in a good way takes work, challenge. practice. Yuval harari, for example....is empty. He believes everyone else is too, Very wrongly. we do have to take on some responsibility here.
I thought so... I mean, I've always suspected the hidden realms at work, especially so since 2020 when the lid came off, and I've sensed it had an alien source of some kind. According to your blistering essay, too hot to touch at times, that alien doesn't necessarily mean off-world - although it may be - but the hidden hand behind man's malevolence. Watching this nightmare unfold over the past four years and then becoming aware of how it's been true for centuries, millennia, has been shocking to the core. So thank you for elucidating the matter with such accuracy and energy.
The Demon-Jab was a test of Moral Courage & Fortitude, which many failed via surrendering to State & Corporate tyranny. So yes, things will only get much worse now that these Malevolent denizens have gotten the green light to 'escalate further'...
I fear the demons you describe will take form, rather than as the humans they possess. At least we'll know who we're dealing with. For those who have simply no idea, well, it's going to be a shocker. Or maybe they just won't notice... I've often wondered if those of us awake are the only ones able to see. Considering the blindness of obedience, it could well be the case.
They will definitely notice.
Collaborators like Yuval Noah Harrari are already envisioning Mechanical Husks that his Demon Masters (post-invasion) will inhabit, after the 'puny humans' are taken care of by his 'AI god' (translation: Demon masters).
So yes, it is as you fear Good Sir:
We will know 'who' we are dealing with... but as to WHAT they really are... many will not notice or will WISH to not notice. This is where 'ostrich head syndrome' will be manifest at bafflingly high levels worldwide.
This is a good point you made that many will not wish to notice. I've come across it already a number of times. In the early days of the plandemic when I tried to show a friend some official data which opposed the official narrative, she said, "I don't want to see it." She was jabbed, of course. It was also interesting to hear a few people say to me that I had what you call 'ostrich head syndrome' for not complying to the narrative. Such is the power of the hypnotic spell.
But as we are dealing with the supernatural, the hidden, should not your call to arms be also in the hidden realms? Evil thrives in darkness, in the shadows, where deception is possible. Aren't the weapons we need light, truth, love? Evil cannot withstand such frequencies. It requires the lower vibrations of hate and vengeance. When our words and actions are imbued with love and the light of truth, darkness is dispelled, or dis-spelled. The spell is broken.
Just look at the efforts to physically block out the sun, the light, the life-giver. We are dealing with vampires, the undead, who want to turn us into mechanical husks, as you say, and suck our lifeblood - as they already have been doing. The light of truth is their greatest fear.
I did think about being more Discreet; however the DOOM in recent times basically 'forced my hand' & so I had to be exceptionally Blunt on the Malevolent Beings among us exercising their gravitas. That said, you do make some Good Points that ought to be considered by all those who are thinking about speaking on these sorts of issues! Thank You Kindly for bringing them to the fore!
agree sunlight is life giving, they hate life. they want this world to become dead like the moon.
it was a test! you are right about that. we are still seeing the results. yet many people are getting ill because of the "shedding" now...
What makes entities such as demons, if they exist, supernatural?
A good question,Personally, I don't believe in the 'supernatural', the 'paranormal', or any other such constructions. There is only Nature. But as to what Nature contains, this is the real question.
Exactly the point of my question. I'm not prepared to say what energies or entities might not exist. Perhaps demons or djinn (same thing, I presume) are real. Perhaps also gods, ghosts and goblins. Say they all exist. Just what then makes them supernatural? If they're in the world, and can affect it, and can (at least sometimes) be perceived, then on what basis do we classify these beings as entirely distinct from other things we find in the world, like amoebae, quasars or pine cones? Why do we dichotomize reality into natural and supernatural spheres? As far as I can tell, it's just a cultural habit.
The way I conceive of the definition is as "supercedes" or "precedes" nature. But, as John notes, this depends highly on our definition of nature. My own definition waffles, but I've come to think of it as "that for which the rules are highly testable and predictable to the naked eye/mind".
But then, it seems possible at least that the rules of the unseen might also be testable and predictable, by the mind if not the eye.
Yeah, possibly. But methinks we're gonna have to don some serious armor. And even then, we might have to accept that some rules are essentially more like guidelines.
Then quanta, if I understand them, can be classified as "supernatural." So too were once atoms and black holes and other now widely accepted phenomena. Gods and ghosts (if they exist) might, for all we know, yet prove one day to be empirically verifiable, in which case we'd have to reclassify them as "natural."
Oddly enough, that proposition is exactly how I killed ChatGPT in our first duel. You might enjoy this:
https://markbisone.substack.com/p/mark-vs-chatgpt-session-1
Yes, thank you, I did.
There are those who see the 'supernatural'. It's real 100%. Good, bad, indifferent, and a smattering of complete evil in the mix. Does it affect humans? Definitely. Can it be 'treated'. Definitely. Takes skill, knowledge and understanding of those realms. Is evil running amok in the world? Yes. More than 'usual'? Yes. Can it be 'treated'? Yes. But boy oh boy it's gonna take some doing. 🙏
nature is a huge concept. it includes consciousness, because that exists also.
The Islamic notion of the Djinn is that they can 'see us, but we cannot see them.'
So our world of size & shape (i.e., the material, 'natural' world) is accessible to them directly; but the converse (a la us accessing their realm) is not as easy.
That at least, is the Muslim's understanding of the Unseen/'Supernatural' realm.
This is a most excellent question! If we suppose all nature is grounded in logic (if you let a ball go, it falls) and if we further suppose spirits are also grounded in logic (if not, why haven't they already devoured each other until only one is left standing?), then clearly they have to be of the same kind: logical. And if we say "nature is logical", then that would basically make spirits natural. :) Although, obviously, a diiferent kind of natural than rocks or trees.
Well that was different.
Postcards From Barsoom is like a box of chocolates...
And there was me....trying to stick to my diet!
I hope you had a most DOOM-full read!
Do you know I was wracking my brains to think of what 'the kids' would say....like 'Monster' or 'Demon' or suchlike but I couldn't remember any.
I know....'Evil'. That was the one!
Even if this is a larp, the end result is warranted. When a pedophile dressed like a Slaaneshi daemonette pleads for their life, saying that it doesn't worship satan, that it isn't possessed by evil spirits. . . that is worse. That a fully sober person would commit abominations upon a child, it is a mercy to call that the work of a demon, for it gives a purpose to the suffering in some small twisted way.
"Of course only those possessed by evil spirits would rape a child, no human does that. To the holy execution chamber, with all due haste."
I assure you I do not LARP when it comes to Demon & Djinnkind.
I knew it was going to be a long night. So I ordered long, tall Sally and a bottle of djinn.
Well good Sir, hopefully it's the Good, God-fearing Djinn as opposed to the Evil, antihuman sort...
Ahhh, one must trust le sommelier, old chap... ☺️ I wrassle with Sally and merely drink the spirits 😉 , having forgone mere alcohol years ago.
A very timely post from an esoteric Islamic perspective.
There is a lot of 'speculation' going on in my end; that said I have tried to anchor my words to the source material. If you go to Shaykh Asrar Rashid's 'Navigating the End Times' for example: He shows that most Islamic Scholars *are in concord that when the Dajjal (i.e., AntiChrist) comes, he will have a Djinn/Demon Army at his beck & call.
So it's not all esoteric & speculation on my end 😉
You probably should have mentioned those sources in the essay ;)
Definitely an Oversight on my part. Apologies Good Sir!
