The Alien Within Us
Magic begins with overcoming the fear of facing oneself.
And that fear is not accidental. If one peers into the depths of oneself, one can discern an alien, malicious and treacherous being hiding there.
The ancient Sumerians had already discovered this alien presence, which imposes its rules on the mind. They called it the Lamassu and regarded it as a principle that balances the Shedu — the person’s beneficent principle, his vital forces.
Where did it come from?
As we have already said, the world is a set of distinct qualities, each formed by the mixing of the Attractive and the Expansive Principles.
We also said that this mixture produces four distinct manifestations: 1) Pure Attractivity; 2) Pure Expansivity; 3) Attractivity within Expansivity; 4) Expansivity within Attractivity.
For any given element to be capable of awareness — that is, to enter into the world process — it must possess the property of Expansivity, the capacity to pass from potential existence into actuality. It follows that within each element three quarters evolve and one quarter remains inert. It is this one quarter — the manifestation of the Dark Mother — necessary, on the one hand, as a counterbalance for the binary principle’s existence, and manifesting, on the other, as the dark part of the mind — or, as it is often called now, the Parasite of mind. Because its nature differs from the other parts of the mind, the Parasite of mind becomes a distinct being dwelling in the depths of the primary mind.
In other words, in each element, and therefore in the human being as a conglomerate of such elements, there exists something strongly resisting the spread of awareness and thus the accumulation of Power.
With a purely attractive nature, the Lamassu is, effectively, a “secondary function” of the psychocosm, its “self-reference,” its “self-reflection” — that is, a “psycho-elemental.”
Although the existence of the Parasite, as we see, is a simple consequence of the realization of World Duality, its activity toward a person is twofold:
For a person dwelling in the plane of Yavi, the Parasite of mind is the person’s natural manifestation, which helps maintain the stability of the world because it forces one to ignore the discrepancies and contradictions that arise in life. This property of the Parasite — aimed simply at keeping the mind within the common flow (for the parasite itself is a necessary part of that flow) — makes the world essentially spurious, and the mind deceptive.
The Parasite’s pure attractivity makes it incapable of synthesis, so any action directed at the neutralization of binaries (that is — the accumulation of Power) is perceived by it as undesirable. All the Parasite wants is for Power to flow into nonexistence, without returning.
On the other hand, the Principle of Expansivity and its manifestations are directed, on one side, toward maximal accumulation of Power, and on the other, toward its transformation, its fusion with attractivity, and the creation of a Synthesis.
Thus, in any being (including a human being) three principles coexist: the first, which is identified with the being itself, consists of expansivity, expansivity in attractivity, and attractivity in expansivity. This principle strives for development, for an increase in Power and awareness, for evolution and light. The second principle, representing pure attractivity and incapable of development, is, conversely, like a black hole striving for nonbeing and the total absorption of all manifestations. The third principle consists of the higher, protective forces of the mind (its Shedu and its Logos).
Of course, for the Parasite of mind to exist, it must dominate the system, for otherwise it would be rejected by the system and doomed to eternal vacuum. At the same time the rest of the being understands that everything given to the Parasite vanishes without a trace because of its insatiable attractivity, returning into the abysses of potential.
The only possible consensus these parts can reach is that the Parasite, hiding and masking itself, will, as far as possible, unobtrusively render the mind inefficient, dissipating the energy it then absorbs.
Within the Parasite’s own nature there is an internal contradiction: on the one hand it (one might more properly say “she,” since attractivity is a feminine quality, though in Russian “parasite” is masculine and “parasite-female” sounds derogatory) strives to absorb the being to which it belongs, but on the other hand, by absorbing that being, the parasite kills itself. All parasites are captive to this dilemma (including parasites of the body).
Aware of this problem, the Parasite of mind strives to “milk” the mind in small portions, maintaining it in a liminal state in which, on the one hand, it does not die out, but on the other — cannot find the strength to develop and resist the Parasite. To this end, the Parasite generates fear. Fear of strong feelings, fear of change, fear of oneself.
Again we note that in ordinary life, life in Yavi, this fear protects against premature destruction and exhaustion of resources. Yet the same fear becomes an obstacle when attempting to pass from Yavi into Prav. And herein lies one of Magic’s contradictions: on the one hand the Magus seeks maximum experience, maximum feeling. But on the other — many experiences lead to loss of Power, and therefore control over experiences is needed, the ability to let them go in time. In this respect, it is clear how important, in the struggle with the Parasite, is the skill of releasing feelings, events, and the past, extracting their lessons (that is, effecting synthesis).
Of course the most practical question is: can one rid oneself of the Parasite of mind? Its absence — the end of the constant drain of Power — would open unprecedented possibilities for development. And the answer is obvious — no. It is impossible to eliminate the Parasite of the mind while remaining an embodied being, because the Parasite is a dialectical, immanent part of the law of manifestation.
But that does not mean it should not be resisted.
Clearly, resistance and confrontation do not weaken the Parasite; on the contrary, they play into its hands because they lead to an outflow of energy. Therefore the only effective method of combating the Parasite is awareness of its existence, and acting on that awareness. Such awareness allows one to control the flows generated by the Parasite and to minimize them.
Yet this very awareness is the hardest thing in the world. For it is obvious that, having existed since the birth of mind, the Parasite, perpetually hungry and forced to hide, has devised many manoeuvres and tricks to prevent itself from being found. In fact, the whole personality of a person is formed under the influence of the Parasite, is spoiled by it, directed toward the Parasite’s safe existence. That is why such an important part of all Initiatory procedures was the Social death — the disintegration of a personality based on false representations, and the attempt to construct a new one reoriented toward effective action.
From all of the above we can conclude that by acknowledging the existence of the dark, hostile part of the mind (the Shadow, the Parasite), we gain the ability to reduce its influence and consequently accumulate Power.
It’s written too softly, sounds like a synthesis – a logical conclusion 🙂
I think this is fundamentally key knowledge. However, to speak of parasites as “a natural manifestation that helps” something is to sow doubt about the necessity of getting rid of them, to doubt that a person is an absolute slave, ordinary food for the AI. Although this is just my personal opinion –
thank goodness someone is at least paying attention to them. Although, of course, one should focus on their own parasite 🙂
All things are permissible for me, but not all things are beneficial; all things are permissible for me, but I will not be dominated by anything.
Corinthians, 6:12
Truly, truly, I say to you: unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
Gospel of John, 12:20-36.
Perhaps sacrifices and festivals in honor of dark deities are attempts to regulate these complex relationships. What is unmanifested is difficult to control.
And again, the sacred madness of the magicians.
The transformation of a parasite into a symbiont? Harm into benefit and death into immortality?
It would be nice, but I think it’s theoretically impossible. It has a different nature.
Well, that’s what a person (magician, god, cross out the unnecessary, write in the necessary) is for, to regulate, to ‘rule’ over this nature. This was even demonstrated by Our archetype in ‘5M’ – what harms can be turned to benefit. Some diseases cure others (like the tobacco mosaic virus injected into a cow heals it from foot-and-mouth disease), poisons can be beneficial. So theoretically – it can be; hmm… but practically… one must be very… inhuman… or superhuman…
Another nature is precisely another nature. If there is a perfect bottomless well in the riverbed (even if it is small), how can it be forced to not absorb the water flowing in the river, but instead to eject it?
I see that it was not accidental that I stumbled upon information that is so relevant to me at this moment. Thank you and good luck to you!
Well said about the Parasite of Consciousness and the importance of tracking it too – about self-control based on preventing unwanted impulses at the very moment of their inception. But how to implement all this in practice?
The practical implementation of this tracking is the upbringing of a mage, not the training in skills, but precisely upbringing.
It should also be remembered that there is danger in control itself – that this control is not carried out by the parasite itself… What is needed, as I believe, is a certain center, an island of awareness from which to just observe. To observe benevolently and gently. Any struggle and control, as I believe, make you lose power. The heart center is the best fit for this. For me, the parasite is still inseparable from socialization and our ego. Castaneda did not just work in a cheap diner, suffering (at first) humiliation…
For Fr_K.B.V.
In fact, all “practices” have long been obsolete. To begin with, read Tart’s “The Practice of Mindfulness in Daily Life”.
And the article is good, the best of what I’ve had time to read here!
Thank you, good article.
The first enemy on the Warrior’s Path is fear, and the more accumulated Power the Warrior has, the more powerful the parasite, darkness, chaos is activated…
Because by increasing your bright side, you also increase your dark side…
The more you stare into the void, the more the void stares back at you.
To weaken the influence of the parasite of consciousness, one must constantly attempt to stop internal dialogue. It is precisely through this that control over our consciousness occurs.
The inner dialogue, it seems to me, is not entirely inner… It is a dialogue imposed by socialization, its patterns, expectations, and stereotypes. It is useful to engage in meaningless activities. For example, walking a set of tableware, uprooting a huge stump and burying it back, etc. But of course, remember the controlled foolishness, after all, you don’t want to end up in a mental hospital? 🙂
“Expansiveness in attractiveness” and “attractiveness in expansiveness” – honestly, this is mind-boggling. Could you provide everyday examples to illustrate these two phenomena?
Of course, it is possible. For example, water is generally attractive (passive, receptive), while air is expansive (active, spreading). However, in water, in addition to its property of receptiveness—this is attractiveness in attractiveness—there is also the ability to flow, which represents expansiveness in attractiveness. At the same time, in air, aside from its ability to ventilate (expansiveness in expansiveness), one can also discover its dissolving ability (attractiveness in expansiveness). Such mutual reflection of the poles of binaries is quite characteristic of most phenomena in the manifested world.
Thank you! You say that the ability of water to flow depends on its ability to dissolve. And the ability of air to dissolve depends on its volatility. I’m not quite ready to agree with that right off the bat. It seems to me that there are these two qualities – attractiveness and expansiveness, expressed to some extent in certain objects. Perhaps there are causal relationships between them (most likely). But how important it is to highlight and study such connections, I do not yet understand.
For more effective fighting, self-control should be preceded by an awareness of the present moment. It is also important to understand that life is a game. This myth is not yours. As a consequence, the understanding comes that spending your strength on someone else’s is pointless. And it is precisely the awareness of these things that will be a significant aid and lead to maximum effective control. Constant self-control is a building wall. It is important to take into account (based on my observations) that a breach of the enemy through the wall leads to stronger destruction. “Rarely and accurately.” The conclusion: it does not matter how strong the fortress is, what matters is to think through the defense.
Recently, I became aware of an alien presence within myself. At first, I concluded the strangeness of the surrounding world. And then I had to admit that the alien is not only around but also within me. Rather, I would like to hope, it is not really within me, but constantly nearby. At the same time, it has a strong influence on me, making me resemble what is alien to me.
I started searching the internet, and it turns out there are explanations and people with similar sensations. For which I am very glad.
The main idea of the article is right on target. Great illustrations for clarity. However, these attributes and ex…, are overly complicated. We are not at a scientific conference on psychology. The simpler, the closer to the truth. Moreover, explaining everything only through this pair of opposites is unlikely to be accurate. There are plenty of other qualities reflecting good and evil.
How the world changes! And how I myself am changing!
Only by one name I am called,
In reality, what is called by that name –
Is not just me. There are many of us. I – alive… (Nikolai Zabolotsky. Metamorphoses).
I completely agree with Kmet. And I would also like to add, the more you hold back the parasite, the more tension arises. The more significance you assign to this, the stronger it becomes and completely takes over your mind and then that’s it – the wall is breached and it, even hungrier, condemns you to an even greater fall. It’s like fighting a bad habit, for example, smoking, as long as you think you’re doing a feat when you’re not smoking, the tension grows and grows until thoughts of smoking completely take over you and you reach for a cigarette.
It seems to me that you need to show some indifference when situations arise through which the parasite can devour us. Not to react at all, but to let them pass by you. No fighting. Because for every action, there is a counteracting force. You need to outmaneuver the opponent, like in wrestling. You need to lower your attitude towards the situation being imposed on you, rather than fighting it. That’s how I managed to quit smoking.
The path consists of battles, one of which is the fight against the Parasite. It is already pleasing that we know who we are dealing with.
Nevertheless, the word Parasite sounds somewhat childish, funny, and hopelessly frightening. Isn’t it easier to say there is a force that demagnetizes a person and a force that magnetizes them? Thus, along with the parasite in us sits also the victor over the parasite. It is like in that children’s fable about the black and white wolf living inside a person, and the one you feed more wins. From the scientific point of view, this has been well-addressed in the theory of torsion fields; there are fields that demagnetize consciousness (and consequently the body) and fields that magnetize consciousness. Positive fields rotate in one direction, negative in the other (one left to right, the other right to left)
Good day! lir147. I’m just amazed by the pretentiousness and ambition of your statement! )) You came, read, found a bunch of errors, and corrected them! It’s childish that what’s better for you is not better for others, you should respect other people’s opinions! Regarding parasites, do read the article again, but carefully, pondering the meaning of the words; the behavior of the being described in the article is referred to as parasitism, while beings that live this way are parasites. This concerns the terminology ))
At first, a person accepts certain meanings and then they take away his energy. Careful inventory of all meanings, terms, and actions will lead to meaningfulness in life and behavior.
There were reports that Castaneda managed to get rid of the parasite, but how true they are is unknown. If that is the case, then it is likely that intention was used. And in general these creatures hold on to one effect, called identification. So the path to getting rid of them is practices of de-identification. They also cannot exist (they are destroyed at different speeds) in an environment of enlightened experiences (love, etc.), and enlightened states (starting from emptiness and beyond). So that is another way. Maybe someone knows more?
Cultivating the Earth allows achieving visibility of victories over the parasite of consciousness. Everything is interconnected: personality, group, family, society.
A personality needs to cultivate the group, the close ones. Otherwise, the group, the close ones will cultivate the personality to fit them.
Society of the present is a field on which the parasite of consciousness harvests and produces new products for its nourishment.
An enlightened personality in the society of the present and past had and has the status of powerless.
Most people draw strength from group, social sources.
A personality resisting the parasite of consciousness draws powerlessness from group sources.
The modern group finds it problematic to cultivate the Earth due to selfishness.
Dirty Earth is dirty acquiring, here is the nest of the parasite of consciousness.
Do the parasites of consciousness and the pendulums in Vadim Zeland’s Transurfing Reality denote the same concept?
Exactly as humanity parasites on Mother Earth, so by the law of attraction of the similar, the parasite within a person takes full control over him. People! Do not be parasites towards our planet and each other! Identifying this filth and controlling it is a waste of time. The parasite will only become stronger; it feeds on awareness. One must stop being a parasite oneself first and foremost.
I have often thought about a specific example of the action of the Awareness Parasite. It seems I found something that could serve as a specific example. This is, say, when someone watches a film that captivates them. Suppose there are a lot of episodes in the film. And they watch them every day. And they fall asleep with thoughts about what will happen in the next episode. Then, when they finish, when the resolution finally comes, they have the question: “Why the hell did I watch this nonsense?” And there is some residue from lost time. Other examples can also be given – being captivated by a computer game. Or (and here’s the klippotic aspect of the Internet) a person browsing the Internet not in search of information that may contribute to their development, but hanging out on a site with some dumb jokes. Or having completely irrelevant conversations somewhere in a chat like: “I work with a girl in the office. She farted, should I say something to her about it or not? When I farted, she was silent”:))) (a real conversation that occurred somewhere in questions on mail.ru) This can also extend to how a person can spend days and nights thinking about where to get money for a “plasma” (because their neighbor has one and they don’t), without ever asking themselves whether they even need a television from the perspective of personal growth.
In the end, a person might act contrary to Sherlock Holmes’ strategy, who said: “My head is not an empty attic that can be stuffed with a bunch of unnecessary things…” and pose as a global erudite – knowing both the models of Soviet locomotives and the armored ships of both sides during the Russo-Japanese War and the tanks of the Wehrmacht and the Red Army in the Great Patriotic War, and which laxative is most suitable for elephants, and which breeds of cattle were developed in the USSR between 1917 and 1991, and the length of a walrus’s penis (60-80 cm) – but what is the use of all this information? And how much time was wasted in gathering it?
In this topic, it is necessary to indicate that all of this can only be considered from the present center of individuality. From which alone one can change everything within oneself, remove the unnecessary, or reprogram. In other words, as they say in the East, the ego is not defeated by the ego. That is, a parasite is not defeated by a parasite. And often, a person finds themselves at the center of this parasite, practically being it, and submits to it. They portray some kind of struggle, with actual agony on their face from this fight. Or they pontificate about how to properly combat it, sometimes for years. If we take into account that this is the position of the parasite itself, then it is simply a farce. Thus, to see this farce within oneself is the beginning of discipline. If a person does not notice the difference and does not see the transition onto foreign tracks, then there is nothing to talk about. Or, as Freud said, psychoanalysis applies only to integrated personalities. Those who have realized their individual true “self.” For the rest, there are pills and procedures. Otherwise, there is a substitution of all concepts, and energy sinks into that very black hole. Again, the problem of the parasite cannot be a hobby, nor can any practices. A person can ask themselves the question and test themselves: Is this really important to me? Or do I engage in this during my free time from life, like going to church on weekends? If it’s the second, then that person is indeed the parasite. And their true “self,” spirit, soul, in general, everything else in their life is not participating. Being blocked and pushed out of the body. We observe this everywhere and all the time. There is nothing more foolish than engaging in such soul-saving conversations. Simply put, these are different demons. In general, they are the unclean. Who is there to enlighten, if not the unclean? Many practices have burned out on this. Although in China recently there have been many films about various demons and what kind of relationships one can have with them. They see it differently. In theory, there are now trends for changes in this topic. After all, the genie itself is also an unpleasant thing. Perhaps this parasite can also be used for certain needs. But no one has approached it this way before? Or it can be removed from internal areas. But then problems arise with those it controls. And there are many of such people.
Recently, there was a quote floating around the internet that everything arises from chaos. And indeed, if everything were too bright or too dark, where would the opposition and the birth of new thoughts, emotions, and feelings come from? Regarding the parasite (inefficiency), there are numerous articles in the blog that point to tracking the connections that lead to the scattering of energies. It is precisely about attention and tracking vectors. For this, you only need to take a closer look at your actions and gradually try to align yourself. Gradually, because it won’t happen instantly unless you are a superhuman with an instantly growing will. Effectiveness is also expressed in the orderliness of connections. Disharmony, for instance, in daily life, is a toilet located next to the kitchen. The same goes for consciousness. Start by at least avoiding cluttering it. “An hour of silence is better than a week of conversations.” P. Durov
Darwin became an atheist after witnessing a wasp laying eggs in a caterpillar’s body. Why, for the sake of a neat concept, do you not allow for the possibility regarding humans? Are those wasp eggs in the caterpillar an inevitable necessity, and should the caterpillar not seek ways to get rid of them? Or take the film Alien, which shows an alien life form from another universe— is this also a result of certain laws? Nothing like that. A normal person is one who tolerates no parasites within themselves. Or at least they try to get rid of them. As for the caterpillar, its purpose is to become a butterfly. And with larvae of who-knows-what inside it, it’s perfectly clear that it will not achieve that. All musings about some “objective” laws here are useless. Either the patient is alive. Or the patient is dead. Whatever principle the parasite embodies, it is not included in the specifications for the device called a Human. Just as you wouldn’t think that by buying a computer it should already come with all sorts of viruses, which would cause it to malfunction and become impossible to use. Similarly, parasites do not come with a person. Therefore, getting rid of them is not only possible but absolutely necessary. At birth, this filth is not present in the child. It attaches later, as one immerses into a society that is governed by parasites. That is why transitioning to a new energetic level is required for liberation. From that point, parasites become visible or perceptible, and their actions obvious. In short, since parasites were not part of the original kit of this physical embodiment, humans have every reason to rid themselves of them, just as they rid their computers of viruses. Without unnecessary philosophy. And there’s no sense in asserting that this filth is inevitable in existence. For example, Ramakrishna, to remain in embodiment, sometimes enjoyed good food. And that was enough for him not to lose touch with this world. This doesn’t apply to those parasites. I presume that Ramakrishna had no parasites at all. Just like many other enlightened and liberated beings, who lived long and happily. Essentially, they are liberated precisely because they didn’t consider any parasites to be an inseparable part of themselves.
I don’t know about Ramakrishna, but I can tell you that there is this alien inside. And with all normalcy, it has to be tolerated. At night it manifests in dreams – scares, threatens, chases, disturbs, in general, an enemy. By day it whispers all sorts of negativity, leads thoughts where I don’t want, into absurdity. I blame it for sabotaging all my good endeavors.
Aurelius says that a newborn has none of this rubbish. So how does it adhere later? This means there is this ability for a child to become infected with a virus. One could say that the Parasite is such an element in a person through which external evil is transmitted internally, such an internal receiver.
The concept of an inherent inner alien is good because it provides better understanding of what is happening.
Determining whether it is a natural manifestation of human nature or something imposed externally is important to devise a strategy for combating it. If it is as much a part of us as a dog’s tail – it cannot be rid of. To feel, see, recognize, study its behavior, not let it wag itself, limit it, if possible – put it on a chain. Again, everything starts with acceptance.
I think Aurelius’s entire last comment is a trick from this Parasite, a vile thing disguising itself as an invisibility cloak.
I think there are many people with similar experiences, and it needs to be applied somewhere personally for me… In my experience, the parasite of awareness is not present at the beginning. In my case, it didn’t exist for quite a long time, I don’t know how it happened. It was to the extent that I simply froze the first few times at the word ‘competition’, and when something was stolen from me, I thought it was a trick – the item had disappeared, and I immediately knew that this person was lying and I wouldn’t participate in it… I seriously did not allow myself to kiss people who do that as a performance. A person at 9 months is capable not only of comprehension but also of prohibition. To love and to obstinately stand firm that no one will ruin it. Although I am very attentive to children and try to understand – do they think the same way I do – in some streams, do they perceive everything in this way (because I thought exactly the same way as long as I can remember, since about three months old). And for me, this whole story is a return to what I remember and know well and consider a normal state. Only this road is long, home). But I can say from my own experience that it is possible to be an embodied being at the same time. Only a bit strange, of course.
Moreover, it seems to me that parasites are a kind of protectors of our universe… As long as a person’s awareness is low, then their Power is, respectively… After all, matches are not toys for children. It is no coincidence that in many religious traditions – humility is cultivated, which is a conscious relationship to Power, so as not to become possessed by it…
The control of the dark side of consciousness consists in bringing it in line with the reactions I need. Educating it. The fear arising at the first stage is the fear of realizing this part of oneself within. It is its uncontrollability and arbitrariness. Education consists of changing the relationship to reality and not only. It’s not very pleasant to give oneself an ear smack, but it’s necessary.
But what to do once one has realized it, and possibly seen it. Now that you understand that not everything here is I, there is a feeling that I have a cohabitant. And also (?) lamassu, may have connections with other parasites, and there are provocations from an external parasite through a person and their actions.
You with your, on what terms do you live together? How??? You don’t notice, you notice but do not listen, or maybe you have not seen it yet, well the one that is inside.
What do you think, Enmerkar, could the inner voice, which in some altered states of consciousness, disguising itself as my thoughts, begins to pressure with negativity (“you’re a failure,” “your wife is cheating on you,” etc.) be one of the manifestations of a parasite? I’ve just noticed that even in a normal state, it is present (but more masked), as throughout my life I have gotten used to considering it as myself and accepting such thoughts as the ultimate truth. A characteristic feature is the lack of any constructiveness, only the statement of the situation in the bleakest tones. Moreover, most of these assumptions have never come true.
Any destructive influence is the Parasite. One could say that the Parasite is everything within us that hinders our harmony, something we cannot cope with, something we do not see or do not acknowledge in ourselves.
German is worse for me. Even the slightest doubt in my actions immediately causes the opposite of what I want.
I will elaborate. It seems to me that candid (pure) desires do not evoke the opposite manifestation in me unlike artificially created ones.
Dear Enmerkar, please enlighten me about the possibilities of a Parasite. For example: can it (he/she) 1) read thoughts and thus know a person’s intentions and all other nuances 2) understand the ‘external’ language we speak 3) create set-up situations involving other parasitized individuals 4) cheat with time (there were often situations when I left the house, took a travel card, and found my pocket empty in the subway).
The parasite of consciousness is not separate from the consciousness itself, and therefore, of course, it, as the active side of the shadow, knows everything. But regarding ‘external’ activity – it does not have its own existence and its own ‘levers of influence’ on it.
In fact, the Parasite is not such an evil being. It has its own understanding of good, and it is not so otherworldly. Wealth, comfort, and other delights of modern civilization. But the mind, like the son of the father, of course, resists the influence of the mother (at a certain stage). Then the benevolent forces of nature become monsters. Up until that point, it is precisely the concerns of the Parasite (whether successful or not) that form the necessary foundation for consciousness.
Essentially, conscious existence is only possible thanks to the Parasite as opposed to it.
If the parasite of consciousness is an insatiable black hole that translates all energy into non-being, then might it make sense to use this property and thus utilize the negative energy that arises during energy cleansings, or for example, feed destructive vortices and energy flows from other people to the parasite? Or out of malice, will it not utilize the negative energy to further contaminate the inner world and keep it in a degraded state?
THE STRANGER AMONG US
There is a type of person known as a narcissistic personality or worse – a perverse narcissist. These are predators in flesh. “… Perverse narcissists do not choose weak or insecure people as their ‘victims.’ Their target audience consists of bright minds and talents, open, successful, impressionable, full of optimism and life force. Often, relationships with perverse narcissists end for their spouses and friends in clinical depression and suicide; even more often – in psychological traumas that take years to heal, if they heal at all.
A perverse narcissist can be recognized by distinctive behavioral features, which they usually cannot fully disguise, despite their developed adaptation skills and brilliant image. In general, potential ‘victims’ should be alerted by the following details.
1) The person speaks negatively about past partners, wordily blaming them for the problems or breakup that occurred.
2) The person is not inclined to acknowledge guilt and shifts responsibility onto others.
3) Having met this person, the partner began to sleep less, eat poorly, lose weight, feel dizzy in their presence or encounter other unpleasant changes in their well-being. It is commonly believed that beloved ones and friends of perverse narcissists experience psychosomatic breakdowns early, even against a backdrop of visible absence of problems.
4) The person seeks to bind the partner to themselves as soon as possible, up to marriage or moving in together.
5) Perverse narcissists sometimes exhibit ‘inhuman reactions,’ although overall such individuals closely monitor their behavior. Like patients with psychopathy, they do not experience emotions in the commonly understood sense of the word, but they imitate them excellently. Narcissists are able to observe those around them, determining successful mechanisms of influence, but in unusual circumstances may show insensitivity, thirst for power, or something else beyond normal reactions. For instance, such a person may describe how ‘well’ they punished the offender (and the punishment would appear disproportionate to the offense), how cleverly they used someone, or how interesting it is to observe others’ suffering… ”
Unfortunately, for them, the environment of spiritually developing people is like a buffet. If, for example, a more developed person can feel social manipulators immediately, then ‘spiritual’ perverts in this regard are more developed in their manipulation methods. These are true black teachers, who most often hide behind the mask of ‘bringing light.’ Even psychotherapists and psychologists try to avoid such individuals because there are frequent cases where the psychologist himself becomes a victim of this predator, a victim of their manipulations. Furthermore, the predator finds new mechanisms of impact on people in psychology, their hidden devaluation and destruction.
The diagnosis of psychotherapists regarding perverts is – this cannot be treated. The True Self of these individuals is not formed; it has died due to trauma or another reason, is in a state of frozen pregnancy that cannot be revived. Instead of the True Self, a False one is formed, for the survival of which the being will fight at any cost. The only thing an experienced psychotherapist can do is create a new Ego system that will limit the harm of the false self and help the being adapt differently in the environment.
Moreover, more often than not, this is innate. It can be due to the presence of perverse narcissists in the family (the virus transmits hereditarily), and in principle, it is transmitted from the aggressor to the victim (if you’ve become a victim, there is a chance of infection) karmically, as can be noticed from the natal chart.
As seen, the diagnosis is unwelcoming. But how do mages relate to such cases when a being has no soul, but is a cold-blooded robot with changing masks, which brings only destruction to other souls?
Does Lamassu have representation on the physical plane?
Isn’t this what is called the “waking ego”? Or is this about the subconscious? I’m getting a bit confused.
Perhaps the light-bearing nature of consciousness is our aid? “Positive” manifestations – mine, “negative” manifestations – not mine. And stand firmly by this. )
thank you
