Mandrak said:A: As we have warned you in past, the attack rotates looking for weaknesses to exploit. (...)
A: When you suffer, your mother suffers. All of you here may be targets for that reason as well as the fulfilling of your own missions. It is all related.
I just want to point out a few things.
The universe allow the powers of darkness to act over our imperfections against us, because it is stimulus for development.We are forced to become aware of its imperfections, in order to correct them and stop the attack.
Even if you love your pet, you think it's fine and it is ... but if you are attached to the material world through your pet, it will be used against you. You can love a pet, but you can be calm down with the possibility that he can get sick or die. Then the forces of darkness will see that this is not your weak point and will not touch your pet because it is useless. No desire -> no fear -> no weak point ->no attack.
It is the art of living - balance. We can love a pet and do everything to be healthy. But if it turns out that it is time to go: Get over it. If "they" smell your weakness, they will use it. A weakness is also obstacle to our spiritual path - to be tied to the transient state of the material world. A pet is just an example, it can be your partner or child, some object...
The forces of darkness are intended to create in us a negative feeling, negative energy, because it is their strength and our weakness.
When you have low self-esteem or high self-esteem, these are weaknesses at the level of the ego, because we consider ourselves separate from the whole universe. The powers of darkness will sometimes raise our ego and later dropped it and drank energy.
The powers of darkness act by inserting thoughts into our heads, such as depression and suicidal thoughts.
How do we defend ourselves? First of all, we need to know that they can do it and they love to do it. Then, identify intruders in our mind and reject it. We have the same weapons as they have: our intent and creating with thoughts. If you need cleaning, create cleaning, if you need a shield, create a shield.
The forces of darkness are using our neighbors against us. For example, you have noticed that the children elect someone to insult using the nickname. Target is interesting if responds appropriately (feel offended) because it radiates the right energy (food for the forces of darkness). If react with indifference - not interesting.
The way I understand the relationship: the forces of darkness - a human being, it symbolically can be represented with black circles on the human body. Black (forces of darkness) acting through black (human weakness).
If I saw correctly, with every man there is at least one creature of darkness, watching the man and trying to bring him down.
I sometimes noticing when a creature of darkness make an appointment for a person close to me and directs negative energy to me. The most important thing is to stay in balance! It will, then, pass quickly. Return back with positive energy instead of negative, or at least stay calm. If you are adding a negative to a negative ... you understand? It becomes a storm, instead of calming the wind. The forces of darkness can use the beam of negative energy against the person, but when they act through other persons, the effect is amplified because they use additional energy of these person. Also, we ourselves can become a tool of sending negative energy against another person: be careful not to be such a tool! If you respect others and love them, you are helping them to become better.
Have we made mistakes in the past? We are, and will continue to make mistakes. The purpose of the mistakes is not to feel bad, but to learn from them. Negative energy destroys, positive energy creates.
I am somewhat surprised that Laura did not recognize the basic form of attack (psychic attack only - tampering with thoughts to become self-destructive), but probably it was reinforced with strong beams of negative psychic energy directed toward the head, it acts additionally confusing the object of attack. Sometimes the attack is so strong that even when it is recognized, it is hard to reject it. Then is needed enough positive energy to overcome. This form of attack, when they use your mind against you, it is as if someone took your hand and with her beat you in the face. Don Elkins (The Ra material - The Law of One) is committed suicide probably after such an attack. So we can conclude that this is a simple form of assault, but can be very powerful.
Mandrak,
I think you have described in your own words and examples, ways we are attacked and possible ways to react. I think it is good to put these concepts into images that we can use in our own lives.
I think all of us struggle to succeed. Even though we know about many of these obstacles thrown onto our path we just sometimes fail to do even those things we know we should.
I think you pointed out at the end how any of us can end up just forgetting or getting distracted from "utilizing" the knowledge we have:

I think you have the right idea. :)
