“....AS MOTHS TO A LIGHT”
Lucifer’s Liquid Ploys
Sperm & Alcohol
Stages of Possession
ew/dmm
Leyford Cay, Nassau Bahamas
1998
“Because of his Lucifer charm that seems to Deeply Divine,
it is effortless for him to attract another victim.
They flock as bees to honey....
or more appropriately,
as moths to a light
that destroys them by flames.....
Flames of passion in the beginning
that soon turn to veiling ashes
and then
the inevitable stench of decaying flesh
because the Spirit has been devoured.
The life sucked from the bone marrow.”
Excerpt from
Evil’s Tender Kiss
ew
1988-1998
Once his (Lucifer/Dark Sorcerer)
total energy
is “fastened” upon another, she has no choice
but to come to him....
like a skittery moth to the flame.
It happens quite ethericaly/invisibly
at first
and......
over a period of time that may be years....
the moth doesn’t know what happened
or how.
The stages of possession are as follows:
1) Obsession
2) Manifestation
3) Possession
The manifestation occurs due to the “gaping” hole in her being....
...and mostly quite an unconscious hole....
she is naive/ignorant of this hole,
in other words.
This is why the mental sorcerer’s Obsession
begins to “work” to fill that unconscious
gaping hole and actually creates in the
“moth” (woman) the experience
of being “filled” or being made whole.
Actually, the sorcerer has created exactly what it is he needs
for his own gaping hole.
Both have large gaps in their being.
The moth/Galactic is unconscious of the depth of such evil......
the sorcerer mentally knows and thinks
of it ONLY as a game of power,
control,
and
conquest/possession.
The naive Child of Light (Galactic) Knows only Love and Light
and has no experience or ability to understand that an other operates on such instinctive, primal and mentally-willed levels.
After the sorcerer Obsesses
(thoroughly and focused)
the Manifestation of the moth occurs in his physical life.
He then Knows he’s making progress....
once the moth physically appears,
the subsequent stages of possession unfold more rapidly.
This is exactly the same principles of
Spiritual Law of Precipitation or Manifestation...
only the purpose and results
are totally dark and opposite
of
Divine Love.
However,
Divine Law operates in both types of Manifestation.
It is Divine Law
that such a sorcerer will self-destruct
and One of Love will Infinitely Increase....
IF she survives and/or remains True in
GOD ALONE....
IF she NEVER
loses
God Consciousness.
Even if she is physically destroyed,
her soul must always Know God First....
else she is returned to a horrible karmic tomb,
perhaps lower than the one of the Dark One.
If Lucifer cannot weaken the One of Light
by filling her with his liquid ploy (sperm),
he will resort to opening her aura with
liquid ploy of alcohol/drugs.

Fear is his belief. You scare him.
Your miracles make him feel like a rooster without a cock.
He be frustrated he can’t harness the power.
John’s cock couldn’t make up for being a traitor to God.
Faith just be a tool for him to cut out people’s will and heart.
Murder simplified his life.

Black/White Magicians
"The fundamental difference between a 'white' and a 'black' magician is that a black magician has command over the divine powers, while the white magician puts himself at their command; they use him as an instrument. The white magician has become completely impersonal and thus can no longer act as a person. His person no longer exists! Rather, since his consciousness is identical with God, the divine will acts in him and through him.
The black magician with his personal-egoistic way of life devotes himself to the passions and pleasures of the body (or $-making, materialism, feeding off others, conquering with sexual energy, etc dmm note). In so doing he squanders, betrays and kills divine power, logos, his divine SELF. He too could work miracles with his high powers, but by betraying them, his own true Self - God - he finally destroys and kills himself. Black magicians always suffer a dreadful death! The Bible describes this betrayal in the story of Judas."
P 63-64
Sexual Energy and Yoga - Elisabeth Haich

In above quote where it says black magician kills his divine SELF.......no wonder WE feel like WE are getting killed!!!!! Because we have allowed our divine SELF to join with his at soul level.....but HARK! in our surrender into God the whole time, God Himself/SEKHMET/Kali/Tara does NOT allow us to get totally killed....just everything in us that needs to die, eh? I always have said the ONLY thing abt me that did NOT get destroyed in the HI drama was my Oneness with God Alone!!!!

It is human nature to hate the man whom you have hurt.
-Publius Cornelius Tacitus, historian (c.55-c.120)

The man hates the woman he has abused.
He must continue to destroy until she no longer
exists in his energy.
Her debilitation is public testimony/proof
of his murderous ways.
However, he will then publicly
Care for her as she dies,
Give her big funeral
And will be seen by worldlings
As a saviour
The world will crow for him and about him
Which is all he hopes for
As a way to enter the pearly gates
Of his Godfearing religion.

They asked the most famous, the most winning football coach of all time to share his secret of so many wins.
He was a Quiet, rarely verbal man
In his usual wordless words
He answered:
“Most coaches make their teams watch videos, over and over, of their mistakes.
My teams see on video, over and over, ONLY what they did correctly.

The Transmitter to GodThe Limbic System, The Soul, and Spirituality
Rhawn Joseph, PhD
The Transmitter to GodThe Limbic System, The Soul, and Spirituality
Rhawn Joseph, PhD
Neanderthals, archaics, and other peoples of the Middle Paleolithic were not very smart and used simple stones for tools. Neanderthals greatly lacked in creativity, initiative, imagination and tended to create simple stone tools that served a single purpose. p., 12
Neanderthals tended to live in the ‘here and now,’ with little ability to think about or consider the distant future; the only notable exception, the future life after death.
This notable dichotomy is in part a function of the differential evolution of the frontal versus the temporal lobes. The frontal lobes are the senior executive of the brain and are responsible for initiative, goal formation, long term planning, the generation of multiple alternatives, and the consideration of multiple alternative consequences. The frontal lobes are the source of creativity and imagination, whereas the temporal lobes are the seat of the soul. It is the temporal lobes which were maximally developed in archaic and Neanderthals, whereas the frontal lobe would increase in size by a third in the transition from archaic humans to Cro-Magnon woman and man.
Based on a gross analysis of the skull and casts made of the inner surface of the skull as well as other evidence some of which will be reviewed here, it is apparent that “archaic” Neanderthal men and women possessed a well developed inferior temporal lobe whereas the frontal lobe is sloped and stunted.
It is the temporal lobes, and the limbic structures buried within which are directly implicated in the generation of personal, emotional and religious experience including the ability to form long term emotional attachments and to feel intense love.
In fact, Neanderthals provided loving care for friends and family who had been injured or maimed.
….
Neanderthals were unable to fashion complex tools or think complex thoughts, yet they were people of passion who experienced profound emotions and love; made possible by the limbic system and temporal lobe. p. 14
….
Neanderthals were capable of very intense emotions and feelings ranging from murderous rage to love to spiritual and superstitious awe. Although no god is implied, Neanderthals held spiritual and mystical beliefs involving the transmigration of the soul and all the horrors, fears, and hopes that accompany such feelings and beliefs. Although the Neanderthals had not discovered god, they stood upon the threshold p. 16
….
What is most surprising about the depth of Neanderthal spirituality is the fact that these were an exceedingly violent, murderous people, as the remnants of their skeletons preserved for so many eons attests. Many of their fossils still betray the cruel ravages of deliberately and violently inflicted wounds.
They also appear to have systematically engaged in female infanticide, and displayed a willingness to eat almost anything on four or two legs…including other Neanderthals. In one site, dated to over 1000,000 years B.P., Neanderthals decapitated eleven of their fellow Neanderthals, and then enlarged the base of each skull (the foramen magnum) so the brains could be scooped out and presumably eaten. Even the skulls of children were treated in this fashion.
In fact, they would throw the bones and carcasses of other Neanderthals into the refuse pile. In one cave, a collection of over 20 Neanderthals were found mixed up with the remains of other animals and refuse. Presumably these were enemies or just hapless strangers, innocent cave dwellers who were attacked and sometimes eaten after being brutally killed.
Hence, with the obvious exception of “friends,” mates, and family, Neanderthals often saw one another as a potential meal, and had almost no regard for a stranger’s innate humanness. These were a violent ,murderous, ritualistic people, and strangers were often killed and eaten. p. 18
….
Neanderthals were men created on the sixth day (Biblical) and did not have a living soul….p. 21
Cro-Magnon man created on the 7th day (Biblical) had a living soul. They were a very handsome people with thin hips, broad shoulders, aquiline noses, prominent chins, small even perfect teeth, high rounded foreheads, and with brains almost a third larger than those of the average woman and man today. There was nothing ape-like or Neanderthal about these people.
They may well have appeared as “gods” at least to the Neanderthals who managed to hang on for another 10,000 years after the Cro-Magnons had appeared upon the scene. p. 24

When a person has lived properly and acted generously, he grasps the way things are. He is not dependent on attachments; he is free from anger and aversions; what he does becomes perfect action.
The pureness of perfectly balanced action based on seeing the way things are--this is freedom and the ending of ignorance.

The master was known to favor action over withdrawal. But he always
insisted on "Enlightened" action.
The disciples wanted to know what "Enlightened" meant. Did it mean
"right-intentioned"?

he lifts a fish from the river to save it from the watery grave."

The visiting historian was disposed to be argumentative.
"Do not our efforts change the course of human history?" he demanded.
"Oh yes, they do," said the Master.
"And have not our human labors changed the earth?"
"They certainly have," said the Master.

To a visitor who claimed he had no need to search for Truth because he
found it in the beliefs of his religion the Master said:
"There was once a student who never became a mathematician because he
blindly believed the answers he found at the back of his math textbook

Where is thought? It can never be seen or even apprehended. It is like a magical illusion, for with imagination it colors the world. Searching for thought, unable to see it, a person looks for its origin. And it seems to be that where there is an object thought arises. Thought does not arise without an object. Can thought look at thought? No. Just as the blade of a sword cannot cut itself, or a fingertip touch itself, so thought cannot see thought.
