CONCERNING THOSE DARK FORCES OUTSIDE OF US
The dark forces know everything about us that our guides do, especially our vulnerabilities on which they play. They will try to enhance our doubt and confusion.
Their greatest strength resides in our belief that they do not exist. Most people deny that they do or belittle them and say have them under control.
CONCERNING THOSE FORCES INSIDE OF US AND OUR OWN TOXIC EMOTIONS WHICH FACILITATE THEIR POWER.
Our desires, compulsion, bad habits, addictions, anger, rage, hatred, envy and a desire for vengeance against those who have wronged us.
“Hatred does not cease thru hatred at any time. Hatred ceases thru love. This is an unalterable law.” The Buddha
