Using The Chakra: Cleansing Oneself of Spiritual Parasites

The concept of energy sources in the body and their manipulation may not always be referred to as chakra. For spiritual and Shamanistic purposes the whole of the chakra is called the subtle body. The Judeo-Christian calls this same entity the immortal soul. Regardless of what we call it, it is the source of energy for all human beings. It is what makes us more than the sum of our parts and defines us as inherently different from animals.

Because of its importance mainstream belief in much of the world claims that this energy is too important to manipulate, that we cannot trust that we know what is best for ourselves. Ultimately this decision is up to the individual. However because of this schism of beliefs, many people may manipulate this flow of energies, let us refer to them as chakra for the sake of consistency though any equivalent term would work, incorrectly or poorly as a result of insufficient knowledge of the subject and/or process. For that reason it would be very wise to seek the aid of an experienced tutor or teacher before attempting to put theory about the manipulation of chakra to the test. There are three processes which must be learned and are of equal importance. The first and second are opening and closing the chakra respectively, on which there is a wealth of information. The third is cleansing oneself of spiritual parasites, which is a subject not particularly well covered in most works regarding chakra.

The majority of these parasites are mindless free-floating things that are attracted by an excess of life energy such as would bleed from a person’s chakras if left open an unused for an extended period of time. They have no consciousness, thought, or capacity for sensation, and are merely the result of random couplings of the chaotic energy that was released when all things were brought into existence. These will typically drop off when one closes his/her chakra like a leech or lamprey that has had its fill. Immediate signs of their presence are signified by persistent fatigue and difficulty thinking, like your head’s packed with cotton that slows and muffles thought and sensation. Long term effects of one or more minor parasite latching onto the chakra can include anemia, jaundice, low blood pressure, and chronic vitamin deficiency.

A more dangerous but thankfully less common parasite is actually a human soul, or a fragment of one that has either deliberately turned away from crossing over to the Other Side or gotten lost along the way. These souls have had many names throughout the ages. In China they’re called Jiang-Shi, in Japan they are known as Obake or Kitsune-Ka. Colloquially they are referred to as soul-eaters, soul vampires, psychic vampires, or spiritual vampires. They feed upon the energy from a person’s chakra to sustain their existence and to keep from fading. They are often intelligent and will move from chakra to chakra to prevent chronic symptoms making their hosts suspicious about the presence of such an entity.

All cultures have their own methods of purification. In Judeo-Christian and Islamic terms a person would need to undergo an exorcism. Hindu belief would have a host be ritually purified and cleansed with the aid of a Swami. Animist and tribal cultures would require a Shaman to find the parasite and extract it by calling on his personal spirits or nature spirits to cast the parasite out. The list of such purification processes can fill books, but they all have one common denominator. That is belief. The host must belief that the process they undergo will work, and in do doing tap into the subconscious will and power of the spirit to aid in banishing or removing the parasite. So each person must do what they know in their bones and at the bottom of their hearts to be the way to get rid of such malevolent beings.

Exsilium Liquidus Potion

The Wiccan religion that was developed in 1953 streamlined and combined many different Neo-Paganism sects by compiling a set series of “laws” of magic. It should be stated that these laws merely explained how the flow and movement of magical energy works. Wicca is a religion which does not forbid it’s practitioners from any magical act, there fore there are no real laws of magic, valuing free will over compliance. It is instead reliant on a strong sense of morality to be instilled in members of any coven and the presence of experienced spiritual guides in the form of coven leaders. While you can find spells to do harm in the Wiccan religion if you look hard enough, for every one dangerous spell there are half a dozen beneficial ones. There are many spells of protection as well as spells for the exorcism of evil spirits, giving experienced practitioners the opportunity to safeguard their own souls. One potion in particular is noted for its power and effectiveness in banishing harmful spirits and exorcising the possessed. It goes by the name exsilium liquidus and instructions on how to make and use it are to follow.

Before you begin it should be stated that there is a very real danger involved whenever magic is used in an offensive rather than defensive capacity. Such spells and potions are reliant on the inner strength or willpower of the user, and should not be trifled with unless one is a very experienced Wiccan. Even then the possibility for lasting harm to the mind, body, and spirit still exists. This is no game.

Start by collecting all the necessary materials and ingredients. You will need one piece of mandrake root, a lighter, a stove top, a small piece of peony root, salt, frankincense, powdered black iron, a white bird’s feather (dove is best), five white candles, a lighter, a bottle, a bottle of holy water, a pot or cauldron (A metal pot you’ve already used for other spells is best), powdered silver (if you can afford it), a bottle of spring water, a wooden spoon or wand if you have one, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, fresh basil, fresh sage, and an athame. An athame is a ritual knife. If you don’t have one then use an old kitchen knife that has been held and used for many years, but make sure not to use it for cooking after this. Don’t worry, it’s not meant for hurting anyone; you just need to chop up all the ingredients before putting them into your pot.

Place the pot on the stove top and pour in equal measures of holy water and spring water. This represents the power of both nature and heaven. Array the candles in a five-pointed star pattern around the pot and light them. Put in the mandrake root and peony root. These both contain a great deal of magical energy and are effective wards against demonic entities. Put in the powdered iron and dove feather, which are both anathema to the Fae. Pour in a tablespoon of salt and the powdered silver, both are said to be effective against magical or demonic constructs given physical form. The frankincense was used Hebrew burial rituals as a ward against any spirits who would desecrate the body of the dead. Before that it was used by the Babylonians and Sumerians for a similar purpose. Put in as much frankincense as you’ve got. The sage, thyme, rosemary, and basil are effective deterrents against nature spirits such as bogarts, huldre, nyads, redcaps, etc. who might mean you harm.

Put the mixture on medium heat and stir it clockwise with the wand. Continue to repeat the following phrase until the pot boils: “I bless you now, by the power of light to destroy evil, to erase his might! Beatus cum potentia bonus!” The last part is pronounced “Bee-awt-us Coom Poe-ten-shee-a Bawn-us”. After the pot has boiled, pour the contents into a bottle. Any container will do, but something which you’ve used in this fashion before is better.
To use this to clear your house and safeguard it from spirits, first open up all the windows and doors to give the spirits plenty of exits. Then sprinkle the potion on all the baseboards of the house, calling loudly “Be gone!” as you do so.

To be rid of a manifested spirit or demon, cast the water directly on the demon and proclaim “Demon be gone, be nevermore. Creature of evil and of bane, I cast you out to eternal flame. Angels bless this spell of mine; banish evil through space and time!” The demon should disintegrate and its essence will be sent back to its birthplace.

The many properties of this potion make it effective in dealing with most any spirit you face, but this should not be your only plan of attack. Knowledge is you best ally. Learn as much about the creature you face first. Also do not imbibe the potion; many of the contents are poisonous if ingested.

Electronic Voice Phenomenon

Electronic Voice Phenomenon is also known as EVP. It is an occurrence where images or sound will appear on recording media with no explanation as to how it got there. A few movies have been made about the subject where the main character opens up a window to the Other Side to look for glimpses of a deceased loved one. There are always horrific consequences for this when the main character finds that when you look through a window you make yourself just as visible to the less benign denizens of the Other Side. It makes for a gripping story but surely that’s all it is right, a story? Wrong. In reality this phenomenon is surprisingly more common than we think.

With the prevalence of digital voice recorders it was a statistical certainty that someone would notice sounds in the background that had not been there at the time of recording. It’s so common in fact that we are likely to have seen or heard dozens of such examples without realizing it. When listening to a recording on tape, mp3, or CD a voice might be so soft as to be unnoticeable against all the noise. But this phenomenon is not limited to the auditory. Your television has probably been home to EVPs. One very common example is when looking at your television you might see shadow images of people or faces behind the program that’s playing. It’s easy to rationalize this as another channel bleeding through to the channel you’re watching. Do a quick check of the other channels, its very rare to find that anything matching the phantom shapes is playing. To see this for yourself just pop in an old VHS tape and pay particular attention to the sections that are black at the start or ending of a scene. VHS tapes are rewritable and are based solely on magnetism; as such they register EVPs more often than DVDs.

Popular belief is that our electronic recording equipment is catching sounds and images from spirits or the dead in places that were familiar to them in life. Several suggestions as to just how this is possible have been presented, the most credible of which states that the presence of spirits, according to paranormal psychology, are associated with particularly strong and active electro-magnetic fields. All current audiovisual recording devices are easily influenced by electro-magnetic fields. It is postulated that such spirits are able to deliberately use their surrounding electromagnetic fields to imprint their presence on these recording devices.
If you’re worried about the consequences of EVP like you see in the movies, don’t be. There are many organizations that pursue the recording and research of EVP diligently and there have been no threats nor accidents amongst any of them. That is not to say that you won’t find a spirits message to be spoken in cryptic or disturbing phrases. In these cases it often helps to know the history of the site where you’re making your recordings. Often the spirits will refer to specific occurrences which had great meaning to them while they yet lived.

The basic method to recording your own EVP involve simply running a tape recorder and having a source of white noise in the background with no other outside noise. When the tape is finished recording simply play it back and listen very closely. As the voices one might hear using this method are difficult to discern this isn’t always very effective. A better method is to use a blank VHS tape and record it while tuned to a channel that has no reception. When it’s finished taping, play back the tape. Human beings’ brains are designed to pay particular attention to visual stimuli. As they say “Seeing is believing”.
