Quote:Spirits can possess you, but only to the degree that you allow yourself to be possessed. Most entities that attach to people are only loosely hooked on, and they have essentially no power.
That's very important for people to understand (especially as more and more people are beginning to acknowledge the extraphysical realities and the extensive interactions between the intraphysicals and extraphysicals). That it is by one's own thoughts, emotions and intentions, does one implicitly consent to the intrusion, "but only to the degree that you allow yourself to".
And especially important to understand that "entities that attach to people are only loosely hooked on, and they have essentially no power". This is because unconscious to even the intruding entities, is that they are crying out for help (in understanding, resolving and clarifying their issues) by the very act of intrusion.
That is to say, not only would *you* be glad to know that as the intraphysical individual (that the intruders might be attracted to), your intentions, thoughts and emotions have way more power; *you* hold the key to resolving and releasing this intrusion, by enlightening yourself on your issues, thereby helping the intruder enlighten himself on his own issues.
Therefore, it is indeed the joy and hope, albeit largely unconscious, of the very intruders themselves, that *you* have more power over the intrusion, and thus can work out the karma, the intrusion, and reach a resolution. They actually wish you this power, even if they do not know it, for without your empowerment, they are as prisoners to the intrusion ("Freeing the Captives", captives referring to both intruder and intrudee in the karmic interprison of intrusion) as much as you would otherwise have been.
Which brings us to the long term solution to Intrusion -
Clarification.
It might seem amazing that Clarification can do all these (resolve karma, release intrusion, accelerate evolution), but when you consider that the root of all karma and intrusion (including attachments, possessions, etc), is a lack of Clarity, the answer becomes intuitively obvious.
