"Cosmic Awareness clarifies Ghosts, Thought-forms & Psychic Vampires"

(Channeling begins)

Now, in regards to the "ghost" experience...

This Awareness indicates that this is akin to that which is called 'psychic vampirism,' feeding off of the energies of others, and it is quite common among humans. It is possible for entities to learn, however, that energy is everywhere present and the mind is capable of drawing energy even from the air around, because the air and the space contains life energy.
When entities discover that the spirit of Divinity is everywhere present and that spirit of Divinity is the Life Energy, then they no longer will need to draw Life Energy from each other. Entities who seek attention are essentially seeking the energy of someone else. Entities who give attention are essentially giving their energy to someone else.
Attention taken, or attention given is the passing of energy. This Awareness indicates that you can give attention continuously, if you are aware that energy can be drawn from the space around you, for everything is alive and contains energy. Therefore, as more and more entities become aware from the ever-presence or omnipresence of energy, they will reach a point whereby they no longer need to draw energy from others by seeking their attention or trying to get something out of them.
This Awareness indicates the person who comes to you with a great need, with some hunger, is essentially drawing your energy, and as you work with this entity and invest more of your energy into the entity, they come to expect this from you and they will return for more of your attention and more of your help.
There comes a time when such psychic vampires will need to be told, "I can't help you anymore!" You may wish to continue helping them for some time, but if you cannot help them to learn to draw energy for themselves, or to handle their own problems, then you are helping to make them dependent on someone else for the energy they should learn to create on their own, for themselves.
You do not want to become an 'enabler' enabling them to continue being the psychic vampire that they have begun to become. This Awareness indicates you will see such entities at every party. Where there is a crowd of people there will always be some psychic vampire seeking energy from someone. Do not look down on them as though they were evil. They are simply people in need of attention.
Give them the attention you can afford, and tell them how much strength they have within and how you know that they can draw the energy they need or you know that they can handle the situation; you have faith in them, and then let them go their own way. Do not feed them too much of your energy, or get them dependent on you.
Many entities will enjoy being the fountain for psychic vampires. They enjoy trying to help others to the point where they are depleted of their own energy. It gives them a sense of importance. "This person really needs me! I am very important to their life! Therefore, I will give myself to this person, over and over, as long as the person continues to need me." This, many entities think of as being a leader.
As you move into a position of leadership or importance to others, you often think that you are important yourself, but you may simply be creating followers and dependents and keeping them from becoming self-contained or self-sufficient, or in their own rights able to handle their problems.
You do not want to become the fountain of energy for other people's lives and make them dependent on you. This can be a grave mistake, because not only will you then lose your own energy and your own right to go out and be yourself, you will not only make them dependent on you, but you become dependent on them, and you become responsible; that is the key word, to them.
You begin to make them independent, and you have a responsibility that you must continually fulfill for them. This Awareness indicates too much responsibility for the welfare of others can not only make them overly dependent and keep them from growing and developing their own sense of responsibility, it can also deplete you.

This Awareness indicates that the beings that are of a darker force, a more negative type, will need to have energies from lower forces, and they can take that Mana, or take energies that are available through humans, and gain personally from that, and in that sense drain energies from entities. This is what is referred to as psychic vampires of the inner planes. This Awareness indicates there are also psychic vampires who are living in human bodies who drain energy from those who are around them; this not only in terms of taking things that are symbolic of energy expenses, such as something valuable which took much energy to acquire or make, and a thief taking that from you, which in a sense is likened unto a vampire, for it steals energy, but this Awareness refers to psychic vampires more in terms of those entities who actually drain the physical Mana or vibrations and energies from another entity by taking their attention and leaving them with nothing in return.
This Awareness indicates that entities can even do this without saying a word. They can simply be in the room with you and draw energy from you, or they can say things and create a flow of energy that comes from you to them, and when they are filled with that energy and feel normal, they may leave and you feel drained from the encounter.

This Awareness indicates that likewise, there are those forces on the inner planes in the astral levels who can take energy from you. This may occur even from dreams at night, or from times when you are vulnerable such as stressed or drunk, or drugged or otherwise emotionally, physically, or spiritually distraught, and in those times, these energies can be sapped and used so that you are even weaker.
This Awareness indicates that it is important to keep a positive attitude, for as you become negative or depressed
, these astral energies can be more easily sapped and taken from you. This Awareness indicates that these astral forces do indeed gain energy to allow them to have greater strength. As they draw energy from you, it gives them greater strength to work against you, or to do mischief with others. This Awareness suggests that entities avoid those weak areas in their lives, that astral entities generally work through the area that is the weakest and less strong; that wherein, for example, you have a person in your household who has a weakness in terms of deceptive emotional weakness, insanity or anger, or frustration or drug, alcohol use, or some other physical impairment that is a drain on their psyche and self-image, or puts them in conflict with someone else, this can become a weak link.
This Awareness indicates that other times, it may not be someone living with you. It could be someone in the area who does something to your property or to yourself.

This Awareness indicates that these are also related to the Egyptian tombs which were guarded by spirits or astral shells, whereby these Egyptian tombs could easily have been defused from their curses by entities simply talking to the spirit guards or astral shells and telling them that they have no longer a need to remain as guards, but entities did not understand this-, and-in some cases, there were consequences for even being present at a tomb that had been opened, and many entities suffered consequences from the astral shell guards who felt it their duty to prevent the tombs from being opened.
If it could have been explained that the tomb is being opened to help show the world the glory of this Pharaoh, or of this Pharaoh's wealth, and let the world see the remarkable treasures which this entity had and revere his being, then the astral shell could have felt more comfortable about letting the grave-robbers in. To the astral shell, they were simply grave-robbers, but had he been informed they were working for a museum that would take care of the treasures for the Pharaoh, then his attitude would have been different.

This Awareness indicates that most discarnate entities operate through the astral shell. It is very rare that a spirit that goes beyond the astral shell will come back and possess an entity. This Awareness indicates that it does appear that this could be a possibility, but usually when an entity in a higher body goes beyond the astral shell level, they continue moving toward the higher vibrations, toward the White Light or toward that which is called the tunnel, and these entities usually do not come back in the same direction they have already passed to possess a spirit or incarnated body.

This Awareness indicates that even those who are more demonic rarely possess an incarnated being without some element of the astral shell being involved in their possessiveness. In other words, a demonic spirit needs to have some of the astral energy, the emotional energy to help it possess a person, or to put it another way: when an astral shell possesses a person, it becomes possible for that astral shell to host demonic spirits as well.
This Awareness suggests thus the demonic spirit and the astral shell, working together, can possess an incarnated being. This Awareness indicates that an entity who sheds the body and sheds the astral shell to move on, generally cannot be possessed or captured by a negative being from the other side. In other words, they cannot be captured by a demonic spirit or negative spirit.
The entity who leaves the physical body, but retains the astral shell and does not give up the astral shell within a reasonable time, becomes susceptible to possession, so that even spirits can be possessed by demonic beings if they don't let go of their astral shells, which are essentially the attaching force that holds entities to earthbound things.

The desires that entities hold to cause them to become earthbound are expressed through the astral shell and make up the energies of the astral shell. When entities let go of these attachments, the astral shell drops off and they move on into higher frequencies where they are safe from those demonic spirits that reside on the far side.
This Awareness suggests you think of it as a castle with a moat around the castle, and in that moat are these demonic spirits trying to get anything that comes out of the castle, and these demonic spirits can only attach themselves to the energies of the spirit or soul of an entity if the astral shell is there for them to grab onto. But if the entity drops the astral shell, which is the attachments, the entity will move beyond the moat and the entity will not be subject to capture by demonic spirits.

This Awareness indicates that if you have a roommate, mate or relative or possessive mother or father, and the entity fixates on you and becomes likened unto what has been called the petty tyrant, wherein the entity wishes to control you, the entity may very easily create a controlling pattern of thinking, and may focus on you, may have a kind of obsession about you, wanting to make sure that you do not do anything that the entity does not like, and that you are totally influenced and controlled by the entity.
When this occurs there will be a kind of emotional attachment by the entity in regard to yourself. This has been portrayed in stories and movies of the past. This Awareness indicates the Fatal Attraction movie for example, represents this kind of fixation or obsession that an entity might have toward another. Essentially it is an emotional attachment that does not allow the other freedom, but wishes to control the other.

The thought-form concept is created out of that emotion. It is not necessarily a thought. It is more of an emotion. But the emotion that an entity holds may create or develop or express as certain thoughts and the thoughts may express themselves in words toward or about the one who is the focus of such emotional attachment. -
If you can think of emotion as a magnetic field, and if you can think of yourself as having this kind of magnetic energy locked up in emotional feelings, and if you can see this magnetic energy being directed toward a particular person to whom you are attracted or attached, you will see what the thought-form is. It is a field of energy that is created by emotion that attaches to yourself, and from yourself reaches out to attach to another.
It is essentially a way of magnetically controlling another on a psychic level. The other entity may not like the feeling and may even be able to tell when you are focused on her or him, and may feel very apprehensive or disturbed and it is important for entities to realize that this kind of emotional attachment is not uncommon with some people who want another person so badly they cannot let go of the fixation.
This Awareness indicates however, this energy that is created can become independent of the creator of the energy so that when the object of the attachment goes somewhere, the energy follows that becomes the thought-form that is possessing the entity, and the creator of the energy may even turn his or her attention elsewhere, but the thought-form continues to hang around and to follow the object of the attachment.
Thus, an entity may be off working, fishing or doing something else, but the thought-form that he or she created may be stalking the object of the affection or attachment. This Awareness indicates that the entity who creates the attachment may think that he or she is in love with this person, but true love does not possess. True love is concerned for the welfare and the desires of the object of love, not simply in having control of the object of love.
Therefore, one who is attached to another is not necessarily in love and the entity who has that kind of affection pushed at him or her is likely to become very apprehensive on a psychic level. They can usually feel the energy of the creator of the emotional energies that have been attached to them, and they resent the affection.
They resent it because they feel it and know who it is coming from, and become fearful or hostile toward the one who projects such energies. This Awareness indicates that these emotional fields of energy or thought-forms as they are sometimes called, dissipate very slowly. They only dissipate when they are not being fed more energy. In fact, they can hang around in a manner similar to astral body energies, which are made of the same stuff: emotional fields of energy.

This Awareness indicates that if you have had obsession attachments toward someone and you have not called back these energies, that entity may still be having some kind of experience or feel a stalking of those energies even several years after you have lost interest in the entity. In other words, a thought-form may exist for many years and continue to stalk the object of your affection or attachment.
Therefore, if this has occurred, and you are still feeding it, or if you have not withdrawn your energies from the thought-form that went out years ago, you may still be causing an entity to suffer difficulties because of
some thought-form that continues to stalk that entity.
By pulling back your energies you will gain more vitality. By pulling back your emotions that you have projected toward someone, you will become stronger. These thought-forms need to come back to yourself, to be dissolved, whereby you can reuse the magnetic energy to strengthen your own aura, to strengthen your own health and to become stronger as an entity.
This will help restore your own vitality, your own vigor, your own strength, and it will also help to free the entity whom you once sent out attachments to which were never satisfied and which were wasted energies. It will help to free that entity so that the entity no longer has a karmic connection with you, so that you and the entity can go your separate ways and be free of each other and have your own strength and your own vitality.
Being possessive of another entity is very depleting and is that entity, and also to your own energy levels, d it s important to release that possessiveness in order to get your own strength back, and in order for the other entity to start thinking of you without the negative feelings that would follow if there was a thought-form stalking the entity, for that entity can tell who is behind that thought-form and the entity can carry hostility for years if that thought-form continues to hound him or her.
This Awareness indicates you may ask: "Is there someone in my life from years ago that I still feel hostility towards?" and you may immediately recognize who fits that description, and also you may realize that the entity's thought-forms are probably still stalking you, still following you, still trying to possess you on behalf of that entity, who may have totally forgotten you by this time.
In this case, you may wish to suggest to the thought-form to "Forget your purpose! Go back to your master! Tell your master that you have done your best, but that there is no way to bring me back to your master, and no way for your master to possess me!' And as you speak to this thought-form, send it home and tell it to "Merge back with the energy of your master and bother me no more!"

This will help to diminish that thought-form and its energy and return it to the source from whence it came, and all will benefit from this action.
This Awareness indicates there are so many, many thought-forms roaming the earth that entities would be helped by diffusing these thought-forms. It especially wishes you to diffuse the ones which you have sent out which are no more value to you; those that have been sent out years ago and were ineffective in meeting your wishes.
This Awareness indicates that most possessive thought-forms do not work. They do not bring back the one you seek, and they simply stay out there causing mischief and they deplete your energy, and the more of them you send out, the more energy you lose from your life allotment of energy.

How To Recall And Destroy Old Thought-Forms
(A New Visualization Technique From Awareness)

This Awareness indicates just visualize yourself reaching for the strings that run from you to those entities of your past that carry the hostility, and pull those strings toward yourself, wind them up, and visualize those strings as electronic energies being wound up and brought back and placed in your aura or in areas of your body where there is a weakness or a tiredness or some kind of painful areas.
This Awareness indicates then visualize these electronic strings of energy that you have drawn back from your enemy; visualize this rolled up ball of string, this electronic energy, as becoming Light, becoming energy, and expanding as it glows brighter and brighter in that area of the body that seemed weak, so that you can experience the rebirth of energy in your system.
