[Musings] Yoga and romanticism

May 26, 2009 13:15


Was talking to Joicy about the nature of yoga and fortune-telling. She was relating how she received an email from a friend who did yoga, opened up her “third eye” in the process and thus saw and became possessed by demons. She did not give me the full email, but part of it over MSN, the reason being she wanted to know if what she said was true.

Humans, I believe, have a very strong filter. We see what we want to see and we ignore all other realities. That’s the reason, I think, why some people can see “demons” and others can’t. I always found it funny though; why are people so eager to see demons that they cannot see the angels that walk with us? I mean, when you read things about history and witchcraft and the saints, it’s always so much easier to see the demons than it is to see the angels.

I can only remember one Saint who was said to be able to see her Guardian Angel. I cannot remember her name right now, but that particular entry left me very hopeful. I’ve always been interested in Angels; why do we give such prominence to those purported to be the spawns of the Evil One (to use the analogy of staunch Christians) than to see the beauty of God?

Back to viewing the demon.
