Can Spiritual Practices Lead to Spirit Possession?

When Spiritual Exploration Takes a Dark Turn

Many individuals seeking our help have already walked a long and winding path through various spiritual development practices—reiki, regression therapy, hypnosis. Some of these experiences have been enriching, such as rebirthing or safe meditative techniques under the guidance of a seasoned teacher. However, not all ventures into the spiritual realm are beneficial. In fact, some can have unintended and even harmful consequences, inadvertently attracting spirits.

The Illusion of Enthusiasm in Spiritual Growth

Blind enthusiasm for spiritual practices is never a wise approach; in truth, what we need is quite the opposite—careful discernment. Choosing to engage in any spiritual practice is a profound decision. No one would impulsively buy a house or a car without thorough research, understanding that such choices have long-term implications. The same logic should apply—if not more so—when selecting a spiritual practice, as its repercussions can echo across multiple lifetimes.

We emphasize this because we frequently encounter individuals who, through certain thought patterns, emotional shifts, or energy-based practices, have unknowingly harmed themselves. The result? Unrelenting suffering that seeps into their daily existence.

The Dark Side of Reiki: When Energy Flow Gets Contaminated

One of the most common culprits in such cases is reiki. In theory, reiki is about channeling universal life energy through the hands, supporting the body's natural self-healing mechanisms. Energy flows through chakras, and the practitioner is merely a conduit, not a source. So far, so good. But herein lies the problem—many reiki practitioners, even those at the highest master levels, fail to grasp the profound complexity of this process.

Far too often, the energy they tap into does not originate from the pure, boundless reservoir of the universe. Instead, it gets siphoned from lower astral planes, realms drenched in negative emotions. These realms are often inhabited by spirits of the deceased—souls trapped by fear, unwilling to transition to the afterlife.

Ironically, it is often the practitioner's own eagerness to help others that makes them vulnerable to spiritual contamination. As the old saying goes, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." While noble intentions are a starting point, they are not a safeguard against the unseen forces that operate beyond human perception. Aligning with divine laws requires an exceptional level of awareness, which in turn demands extensive spiritual development—something that typically unfolds over multiple lifetimes.

In today's world, there exists a vast spectrum of individuals at different stages of spiritual evolution. True wisdom remains rare, and those who genuinely possess it understand humility. The greatest masters are often the most humble, always questioning themselves: "Am I truly qualified for this?"

Energy Distortions and Their Devastating Effects

When energy transmission is flawed, it disrupts the recipient’s system, throwing their entire energetic balance into chaos. In extreme cases, it can fundamentally alter their functioning, rerouting energy in unintended ways—sometimes activating channels that should remain sealed for many lifetimes.

Some individuals offer courses on "opening the third eye" or awakening Kundalini energy—both perilous endeavors. Kundalini, a force of immense intensity, should only be awakened in those of impeccable moral character, selflessness, and spiritual purity. Even then, it must be guided by beings of the highest light. True teachings of this nature are never publicly available; they are granted only to a select few who have undergone extensive preparation, often spanning multiple incarnations.

Energetic imbalances are often responsible for triggering unwanted astral vision—forcing individuals to witness horrifying realms of the lower astral plane. The sheer negativity and grotesqueness of these dimensions can induce immense fear, often to the point where conventional psychiatric treatment proves ineffective. In extreme cases, even the strongest medications fail to silence these intrusive visions, leading to psychiatric institutionalization—sometimes for life.

A Cautionary Tale for the Overzealous

Let this serve as a stark warning for those who, driven by unchecked enthusiasm, recklessly engage in practices they barely understand. The consequences can stretch far beyond this lifetime, affecting future incarnations—not just for the recipient but for the practitioner as well. The ancient principle of karma is clear: "What you do to others will become part of your own experience."

However, the purpose of this message is not to instill fear—fear itself is humanity’s greatest adversary. If you have engaged in questionable practices, the solution is simple: stop immediately, forgive yourself and those who led you down that path, and most importantly, do not dwell on the past. The power of redemption lies in the present moment.
