I've long had the observation in myself that what is often interpreted as fear, is actually the sudden rise of inner power in response to a situation. The pure energy of it is neutral, but so potent, it triggers the reject response and is easily labeled as fear and shunned, instead of cultivated and used. Seems a symptom of the disconnected nature of our culture. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3bob Posted August 14, 2018 in certain cases fear is a useful survival mechanism that is not to be ignored, but fear turned to panic lessons chances of survival. So just one idea about something like fear which has other aspects doesn't cover everything. same goes for anger... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well this question is right up the alley of something I would ask! But, in response, as far as Hinduism goes many mantras exists to protect one from ghosts and psychic attacks. They are called Kavach mantras, and they exists for various deities. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Earl Grey Posted August 17, 2018 Pretty much every method I practice has an aspect of protection against psychic attacks that I don't even think about it because of how powerful they are on top of their other uses. In the mantra practice, there are mantras that offer protection generally or against demons, and can also banish and re-balance or clear the space around us. In my Tai Chi, there is a Golden Flower form that is for psychic defense as well. In Tao Tan Pai, the cane form can be used for exorcism. Flying Phoenix itself and any of even the basic meditations will protect you a hell of a lot. Spontaneous Five Animals actually had me do two things one time: the first was become a tiger and attack a psychic eavesdropper and tore him to bits, the second was I vomited a centipede during a deep session and tore some bugs and broken glass shards (etheric ones, mind you) from the body. In Akashic practice, we use the psion prayer and entity release prayers to protect ourselves. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Earl Grey Posted August 17, 2018 33 minutes ago, Lost in Translation said: What is Spontaneous Five Animals? From your description of the tiger and the centipede it sounds like shamanism. It is the old original five animals form from Hua Tuo and the body moves spontaneously and involuntarily. Very powerful and wonderful style I learned from my teacher in Sydney. You can read a few stories in my PPJ. As it is also rooted in Taoism's foundation from shamanism, yes, there would be no surprise it sounds like shamanism since it was very much that way or animistic rather, before Laozi. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yugenphoenix Posted August 17, 2018 Build up your energy to a high enough level and you have nothing to worry about or fear. As far as calling or invoking protective deities, it’s linked with intent and deep belief, if u have none as in lack of real faith, it’s useless, a paper tiger. A crucifix wielded by a broken faith priest is like bringing a squirt gun to a gun fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Avoid emotional conficts as those also may damage your energy vessel. To protect from mental attacks. Control your thinking, raise awareness, be like buddha. Do not think or badmouth anyone who has achievement in higher mental bodies. You will not even realize when and how your life got fucked up. I have personally seen and experienced powerful meditation masters think badly about someone one day, and next day that person gets trashed in life, gets a terrible uncurable disease like cancer or even dies hit by a bus on street. Some may concider it a coincidence or a fairy tale, it is up to you. Still being more careful in life is never a bad thing. This actually reminds me of certain accounts related to supposed demonic attacks, like events related to Annabelle's doll: https://www.mirror.co.uk/film/annabelle-based-true-story-real-10959182 > The Warrens agreed to take it away and Ed drove Annabelle to their museum for safekeeping. He claimed the doll willed the car's brakes and steering to fail - repeatedly. He threw Holy Water on Annabelle as she sat on the backseat in a bid to stop the 'attack'. It seemed to pause the weird behaviour. > Arriving home, Ed sat the doll in a chair near his desk - he claims it began to levitate, but then swiftly fall inert. Over the next few weeks it would move, cropping up around the house. One day a priest came to visit. Seeing the doll in the chair, he picked it up and addressed it, saying: "You're just a ragdoll Annabelle, you can't hurt anyone," tossing her aside. > Ed was appalled, shouting "That's the one thing you better not say!" An hour later the couple saw the priest off, asking him to call them when he got home. A few hours later he rang, his brakes had cut as he turned on to a busy intersection. He'd been in an accident, his car was destroyed and he had barely survived. > (Edit: more) ....... "These are prayers that bind the evil — much like an electric fence for a dog." It seemed it was over, but it turned out Annabelle wasn't to be restrained. Lorraine Warren has since warned what happens when Annabelle is mocked. > A defiant man visiting the museum had heard the tales and began bashing on Annabelle's case, calling on her to scratch him if she was real. "Son, you need to leave," Ed warned, trying to protect him. He was too late. > "[The girlfriend] told us that they were both laughing and joking about the doll when the young man lost control of the bike and crashed head-on into a tree," Lorraine recalled years later. The man was instantly killed. His girlfriend survived but was in hospital for a year. Jumping to assumptions here, but could powerful entities like the spirit/demon of Annabelle's doll, have abilities or are capable of things akin to that of powerful internal arts masters? The ability to cause harm through mere thoughts or emotions (whether it be directly or indirectly) seem like an incredibly dangerous ability, and something that could easily be abused.

They hunted ghosts before that was even a thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_and_Lorraine_Warren They dealt with demonic and otherworldly attacks. Thankfully I have no experience of that. I've only experienced attacks from living people, and not the most disciplined people at that. I do know someone who has experienced attacks from otherworldly beings. It's much more severe, as one would expect. Not nice stuff. Not nice at all. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big subject, I approach psychic attack from Taoist Shamanism (Wu/巫). Energetic work, help from spiritual teachers classically known as immortals, Fu talismans and direct confrontation to sort the issue out for good. Here is one very important tip. Shielding in a number of Taoist practices is done with purple and golden light. Put a purple bubble around you then a gold bubble within. Purple will cloak you and gold will raise your energetic vibration. Gold alone will make you Light up and draw a lot of attention from people who “drain” you and other parasites. So be sure to put purple on the outside. Edited September 30, 2018 by Qiway 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Everything Posted October 1, 2018 Someone has to be really desperate in order to attack. So if you give them even a little bit of love. They will then exist forever in a rapturous extacy of blissful full body orgasms after another. And then they just go to sleep. Or faint and dream forever of paradise. Or well... You turn their life upside down. Inside out. x) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
