Effects Of Spiritual Intrusion
CLBA Journal 2001 - 2005
In the Yoruba
indigenous faith, physical and mental problems are frequently diagnosed as
being caused by spiritual intrusions, energies that impinge on your spiritual
being and may cause serious mental and/or physical traumatic disorders. The
approach to the treatment of related illnesses centers around the diagnosis of
the cause and the use of techniques that impact on the affected areas within
the body, mind, and soul.
When feelings of emptiness, of being out of touch with reality occur, it is said that there is dissociation between the body and the soul, wherein some part of the inner spiritual self is lost. At times this is experienced as a feeling of watching life passing by without being a part of it. When this dissociation becomes extreme, serious symptoms are observed that cause an obstruction in the ability to cope with everyday life.
The emotional effects of spiritual intrusions are diverse and usually have a serious impact on relationships and significant attachments. In severe cases the intrusion blocks the ability to engage in long-term loving or marital relationships. Complex nightmares that include repeated sexual activity are often manifestations of intrusion. Other typical experiences include an object-less anger, a lack of tolerance, absent-mindedness, and the inability to see life as a meaningful event.
The phenomenon of spiritual dissociation is commonly found among people who seek Lukumi/Ayoba spirituality as a last resort for the solution of their problems. Cases of extreme trauma, such as life-threatening illnesses that cause emotional disorder, are generally treated by specialized clergy persons. In essence, the traditionalist clergy intercedes with the spiritual realm in order to diagnose and remove the pain and suffering caused by the intrusion.
Traditional Reintegration Approach
Our holistic approach to illness utilizes three basic categories. The attempt is to determine the cause of the illness and the category within which it falls:
Natural Causes
Preternatural Causes
Non-ordinary Causes
After diagnosing the condition, the treatment may include the use of herbs and other natural healing sources, and advice on appropriate behaviors to be followed when the causes are of a natural type. When the causes are of a preternatural type, appeasement rituals are performed. On non-ordinary causes ceremonies or rites of passage may be required. One or more categories may be combined on treatment depending on the complexity of intrusion causes.
Only an experienced traditional clergy person understands how to enter and return from non-ordinary reality, and can safely accomplish the removal of a supernatural intrusion. The treatment resources involves finding the cause, capturing the energy or spirit causing the intrusion, removing its presence, reaching the real ancestral souls, and bringing them back to resume their role as protectors of the body and mind, through the use of traditional reintegration resources. Through these means the afflicted person may be released from the trauma and restores the ability to experience normal life patterns once more.
How to Get Help
The symptoms of dissociation, which may begin as feelings of emptiness, can progress into severe physical and emotional problems. The sad part is that many people do not seek help until they are in a crisis situation. In fact, many put off treatment until their problems are severe, because they attribute the symptoms to other causes or fear peer pressure in searching for spiritual type of solutions.
There is no need to suffer from problems associated with spiritual intrusions, because specialized help is available. Thanks to a number of soul reintegration resources, more and more people are being helped. The first thing to do is call for an appointment and have your condition diagnosed. If you do have intrusion problems, a personalized program will be suggested for your consideration. There is no obligation. You can choose not to engage in the treatment, or you may arrange a starting date for your transformation back to a normal way of life.
If you suspect or suffer from the symptoms described above, do not put off the cure any longer. You may also help a friend that may be a victim of these conditions. The symptoms are warnings of serious conditions and should be diagnosed as soon as possible.
