Evicting Demons

Hinduism advocates the theory of reincarnation and transmigration of souls according to one's Karma. Souls (Atman) of the dead are adjudged by the Yama and are accorded various purging punishments before being reborn. Humans that have committed extraordinary wrongs are condemned to roam as lonely, often evil, spirits for a length of time before being reborn. Many kinds of such spirits (Vetalas, Pishachas, Bhūta) are recognized in the later Hindu texts. These beings, in a limited sense, can be called demons.

Most of us have been afraid at some point but, thinking personally, i can say that it didn't stand scrutiny after the event. Just trying to be objective.

In the overall scheme of things I think the terminolgy is generally unhelpful and we should be focussing on the facts. If someone has paranormal activity going on and it is affecting them then calling it a demon will increase their fear thus providing more energy. I know that many people will disagree but I personally have found that the first step in stopping this activity is for the householder to understand the limitations that this activity can have on them, reducing their fear through knowledge and their strength in asserting their right to live where they are.

Well said and true.

I agree. Negative energy is.certainly separate and fear May be able to feed negative energy.

Demons are something else tho...like I said..I would avoid.that at all costs.

Very true, ChannelPirate,

Darkness and light coexist, the Ying and Yang, Isis and Nephthys. Personally I believe true evil is a product of mankind and shouldn't be confused with darkness.

There's nothing wrong with RAP if you like listening to people with no musical talent; kinda like the country music singers who sing about their woman leaving them, but they still got their dog and pickup truck. Lol.

And Eclectic - there is NOTHING funny about country music.

Except when you play it backwards and the dog comes back, the pickup gets restored, and someone gives you a house. (Sorry)
