Sexual Predators in the Spiritual Movement

in #anarchy6 years ago (edited)

When I was younger, and I first started to go to bars and clubs my Father would warn me about ‘Lounge Lizards,' it's a British term for men who prey on young drunk women. When I started to do my inner work in my late twenties and involve myself heavily in spiritual circles, I was never aware of what I call ‘Circle Snakes.' I naively thought everyone would be pure and all love and light, there to progress to a higher state of consciousness. I was lucky enough not to be involved too much with these guys, but when I did get involved with one, I got the nastiest love bite I could imagine. A toxic poison that purged me so hard, it broke me. It's not just sexual transmitted diseases we need to be wary of, but also sexually transmitted demons.

In one sense I can see how these toxic relationships work, one party is often so needy for love, that they are their own elusive lover. The other often is so elusive to others, they also are suffering from a lack of love. If both can learn from the encounter, then I guess they have become each other's medicine. They have danced the dark dance, and hopefully, the wheel of karma in their love life can come to a holt. They can dig deep within themselves and become the lover they have always needed to heal themselves on a deep emotional level. This kind of relationship though it's not pleasant for either party, however on a 3D level it is consensual.

What is really worrying in these circles is the predator who looks at his victim and coldly takes what is not offered. It's a manipulated abuse of power, a vampiric energy that sucks the life out of its victim. Stealing precious life force energy because they are starved of their own. These psychopaths that sexual pray on vulnerable people seem to infiltrate every area of life. They have the top positions in the entertainment world, financial industry, law, medicine, and religion. They say cream rises to the top, well the cream in our society seems to be very sour indeed, in fact, its pure poison.

Recently this week where I live in Thailand, an internationally renowned yoga school Agama is on the brink of being shut now. The Swami (a person who claims to have elevated consciousness) has fled the Island of Koh Phagan, leaving behind a string of rape case allegations and trauma to his alleged victims. As I read the countless testimonies from his victims, I started to wonder how does a monster like this get created? How does an overweight, older guy who looks creepy as hell, get thousands of people to flock from all over the world to his school? It would take years of psychoanalysis to understand a character like this. However, form my limited understanding of such creatures, psychopaths tend to have the same characteristics, superficial charm and a sense they are above the laws of the land and the very laws of nature. The Swami in this yoga school would often say to his victims that they were demonical possessed if they questioned his behavior and to go against him would lead to bad karma. This demon actually believed he was above God. However, the laws of Karma have not escaped him, and hopefully, the Thai authorizes will throw this man behind bars.

It's the case across all sectors of society that these people believe that they can do as they please, that they can cause deep trauma and never see any come back for their behaviors. I'm not a deeply religious person but there are parts of the bible that speak the truth, and ‘an eye for an eye' comes to mind with these parasites in our world. Coming from Britain sexual immorality seems to be entrenched in our society, our top-ranking officials, royalty and once loved national heroes have all been caught up in sex scandals and pedophilia. Why has our own society not protected our innocent and why do those brave souls that do come forward get questioned more than those accused?

It broke a couple of days ago names of leading actors and directors in Hollywood who have also been accused of child abuse, it seems the veil of illusion masking the dark is finally being lifted. There are no words of comfort we can give to those that have suffered from the hands of these predators. However, we can honor those that have suffered through our actions. These are my thoughts on ways to help, I welcome other ideas on how we can collectively shift this darkness.

BOYCOTT THEM: Products, films, whatever they make their money from, we need to stop purchasing. Whether its yoga, tours, movies, endorsements we need to take their income streams away from them. We can not have the most powerful weapon (money) in their hands.

UNITE TOGETHER: One of the main strategies of the dark is divine and conquer. We must see through this and come together as a human family. Regardless of our race, color, creed or sexual orientation.

INNER WORK: Doing deep emotional work and strengthing your inner armor. If you can battle your own inner demons, you can come from a stronger more centered place to fight the external ones.

BRING BACK TRUE MASCULINITY: Just like we need to come together from all walks of life, we also need the true masculine to raise. We need men to protect the feminine and our children, not destroy them. If men could start to honor the feminine in everyday life, this energy collectively would help towards the shift.

Whatever energy is working through these people to commit such heinous crimes, know that nothing is stronger than the human heart and its time to awaken ours, so we are altogether whatever the weather.

BE More, BE Excellent, BE YOU!

Excellent article. I think including the leadership traits vs the psychopathic traits was perfect here. Thanks for sharing this. Good message of action as well.

The trait chart is really interesting. After several years in South America I've had the unfortunate experience of meeting charlatan shamans on numerous occasions and I wonder if they even recognize the psychopathy in themselves or truly believe themselves to be good. It seems every one of them believed they were operating to a higher purpose and could see no wrong whatsoever in their actions, even when lives were destroyed and whole communities ran them off.

Also, I wonder if they could be saved. What I mean is the difference in leadership/psychopathic traits is often so slight that it makes me think that with the right nudge in this direction or that a crazy person could easily become the visionary leader that they see themselves to be.

Really good article all the same, thanks for sharing.

Thank You!

I've also met the charlatan shamans, I've often wondered why the medicine they are using, never shows them their behavior.

Yes, I agree the difference is so slight. Perhaps some of the Gnostic Teachings of the manipulation of humans through Archonic influences are at play here. Who knows hard to say, but I hope we see a shift in out lifetime.

People are attracted to confidence & want to believe other people have all the answers. Perhaps the teacher from your story was once an innocent child taken advantage of terribly. Many of these people have backgrounds we cannot understand. That is no excuse, but it might help you understand a possibility of why these things happen.

Boycotting is the smartest move to stop terrible systems. Every dollar spent is a vote of resources, spend them wisely

These demons are spiritual leaches. One need to be self aware indeeed.

What a great article and something a friend of mine has had experience of. After she shunned her "Shaman"(or whatever a shamanic leader is called) he then froze her out and made the experience a waste of time. This isn't as bad as the case you mentioned but still an example of how folk need to keep their wits about them. In my friends case, the weekend seemed to revolve around taking iowaska(sorry for the spelling) Maybe I am suspicious but there were women who just didn't question the dangers and in my friends case she was really putting herself in danger.
Thank you for sharing this on steemit.
