You Can Ignore Entities All You Want but They’re Not Ignoring You
The Importance of Radically Honest Self-Awareness and Owning Your Power
Intro
In last week’s post, I discussed how we can find ourselves in a thought prison when we slip into magical thinking or opt in to someone else’s make-believe ideas.
Is a thought prison the same thing as a limiting belief? After all, many coaching and therapeutic modalities look at things like limiting beliefs, and go about learning how to shift or re-frame those beliefs.
That can be valuable and beneficial work to do.
However, working with limiting beliefs runs the risk of slipping into the same territory of just looking for ways to swap out limiting beliefs for other, more palatable or functional beliefs that end up being just as limiting!
So the question I have for you is this - how possible is it to suspend belief in certain areas of your life? To allow yourself to be in a place of not-knowing, to remain open to possibilities? In other words, to consciously choose to free your mind so that it can simply be present in the world? Free to be aware of what is really happening or not happening, regardless of whether or not it fits anyone’s narrative or belief systems?
This is what spiritual freedom means to me.
"Until we find a way for all people to be free, none of us are free. And that means freedom has to be political, economic and spiritual." — Catherine Austin Fitts
Today, we’re going to talk about how you might find yourself in a thought prison due to following bad actors without realizing it. To understand this, we’ll look at a couple of cases where these entities even offer healing, or seem to be sharing the truth and other “good” things.
Can Dark Forces Heal People and Teach “Good” Things?
In a conversation with a generally wise and spiritually educated person - I mentioned something about how demons can heal people… she was visibly surprised to hear me say this.
Yes, demons and dark entities can do all sorts of things that may be perceived as positive.
Take a look at the case of Doreen Virtue.
For a long while, she was rather famous in the new-agey world for developing Angel Cards, and Angel Readings. She was speaking at conferences, teaching, and certifying people in her process.
Then, one day, she had an encounter that changed everything. To make a long and worthwhile story short here for the purposes of this article - she began to understand that she was dealing with entities that were manipulating her, and in turn manipulating all of her followers.
You see, many in the spiritual community seem convinced that there is no darkness or distortion in this world other than what an individual creates for themselves. Or to make matters worse, they fear that even looking at dark things will cause them to get some new-agey form of bad-energy “cooties”.
How strong and true and real is your “good energy”, your light, if it is threatened by merely looking at the darkness that invades this world?
How can we ever collective shift the conditions of this world towards peace and harmony if those who most value the light are afraid to walk into dark places?
The much bigger question for me is this - how many stop to look at the real reasons why they believe what they believe? Some of your beliefs may sound nice, may feel nice, but if they were intentionally injected into society to help control you, would that not be worth understanding?
Were the entities teaching through Doreen doing so just for fun? Or did they have a job to do?
Did they teach frightening dark things? Or did they teach things that were “of the light”? How many remember that the name Lucifer means Light-Bringer?
Wait, I thought we were all one? That there is no good or evil, just different uses of life energy? Or that everyone is either Service to Self or Service to Others, but we’re all supposed to be one big happy evolving family?
Are there Universal truths embedded in those beliefs? YES, I believe so. But when presented and shared out of context of the bigger picture, therein lies the distortion, the distraction factor. This is how you enter the hall of mirrors!
You see and feel the truth, but it is surrounded by illusion.
So yes, maybe at some deep, esoteric, non-dual level of existence, these things may be true in some way. But I question IF anyone in this realm can honestly live this way. And even if it is possible, I question if it’s truly beneficial to anyone (self or others) to try to do so.
For a moment, let’s go with the idea that this place was created to teach us through contrast and duality — then how are we contributing to this learning environment by attempting to be in a non-dual unity state of consciousness 24x7?
So what happens back here IRL as so many turn a blind eye and deaf ear to anything negative? How many children end up sacrificed to God knows what…
Oh, the gurus tell us, we choose our life experiences, it’s all planned out. OK - even if this IS the case (there goes another big-ass IF) — for what purpose?
What does an individual learn by going through the pain and trauma of childbirth, the joys of learning to walk, talk, and be part of a family - only to end up murdered or worse (and yes there are worse things than death).
Or is the lesson meant for the family members? What about the community? I do not have answers to any of these questions, but it is my deepest feeling that whether these events are intended for teaching us at a soul level or not — we are operating in a very self-serving mode when we turn our attention away from the suffering of others out of fear that we’ll be inviting negative energy into our lives.
But the bigger point to all of what I am sharing is this - we all too often seem to overlook some rather obvious questions:
Who or what is manipulating us?
Why? What’s in it for them?
Why is it so, so difficult for people to wake up from their slumber to see the reality which they inhabit?
To better explore these questions, allow me to share a few more examples and observations from others.
Let’s Talk About John of God
What comes to mind for you when you hear this name?
I have met people, even recently, that only know of the amazing healings that occurred when people went to see John of God. After all, Oprah Winfrey was one of his many public promoters:
"Being in John of God's presence, you really do feel a powerful energy. Is it God? I don't know. But there's really no way to explain the healings that many claim took place there." — Oprah Winfrey
Here’s what João Teixeira de Faria (aka John of God) himself has said:
"I do not cure anybody. God heals, and in His infinite goodness permits the Entities to heal and console my brothers. I am merely an instrument in God's divine hands." — John of God
The truth of what was really going on - here is a summary of the main allegations and charges that spiritual healer John of God was found guilty of:
Sexual abuse and rape - In 2018, over 600 women accused John of God of sexual abuse, rape and other sexual violations during spiritual healing sessions and rituals over many years. The allegations dated back decades.
Sexual slavery - Witnesses said young girls and women were kept in isolated housing and used as sex slaves by John of God. He asserted spiritual authority to coerce them.
Illicit firearms possession - In a police raid in 2018, authorities found a cache of illegal firearms in John of God's possession.
Money laundering and tax evasion - Investigators uncovered a complex money laundering and tax evasion scheme run through John of God's spiritual center Casa de Dom Inacio.
Prescription of banned medicines - John of God illegally prescribed controversial medicines like barium oxide to patients without proper licensing.
Falsification of medical records - Investigators found John of God falsified medical records to hide abortions, unlawful prescriptions, and more.
A few of the many sources for the above information:
Celebrity Healer in Brazil Is Accused of Sexually Abusing Followers, NY Times
John of God 'monster' making millions with barbaric surgery and 'blessed' pills, 9news out of Australia
Wikipedia - "João Teixeira de Faria" - The section "Investigation of sexual abuse" provides a comprehensive timeline of the allegations, investigations, charges, and sentencing.
I cannot find it now, but I also recall a very revealing article describing what happened at the police station as he was being arrested and processed. From what I recall reading, the computers and lights were going on and off, and there was a very frightening presence in the police station.
It’s relatively easy to fact check any of the above, except perhaps for the Oprah piece. After the allegations surfaced, Oprah reportedly deleted related content about John of God from her website and social media. She does not appear to have made any new public statements regarding him since.
The point of this article is not to overly focus on the human man involved here, but to point out the obvious - there were “entities” involved in the healings.
What sort of entity would heal people of serious disease and illness? An entity that expects something in return. When dealing with dark forces, there is ALWAYS a spiritual price to be paid.
If you find yourself perusing any of the recent media stories about the John of God situation, you may find something in particular missing from the reporting: who or what are these entities? What is their real agenda?
Courtney Brown at Farsight Institute
I was struck by some comments made by Courtney Brown in a recent video interview on the Leak Project channel.
Having studied Controlled Remote Viewing myself, I have been interested by the remote viewing work conducted by the Farsight Institute.
From what I have heard shared by Courtney, they didn’t start out looking for alien presence, it just turned out to be the case that everywhere they went in their remote viewing work, the alien presence showed up.
In the interview below, Courtney shares that he believes we have been manipulated by these entities for a very long time, perhaps millions of years. He also shares his perspective that they intentionally utilize good-hearted and seemingly trustworthy channelers to promote their messages.
Does this mean that the channelers themselves are evil or bad people? No… it simply means that they are allowing themselves to be used in ways that they likely do not fully understand.
And to be clear, I am not saying this is the case for all channeling. (Full transparency, I practice channeling myself, but intentionally do so for my own spiritual practice.)
Karla Turner
After writing last week’s post and contemplating this article, another person keeps popping into my mind, so I feel she is very worth mentioning: Karla Turner.
“The one thing I know I know... the evidence does show a massive, ongoing, long term alien involvement with humans, and nobody has a convincing explanation for it yet…” — Karla Turner
She doesn’t claim to know who or what “the aliens” are. Rather, she focused on the evidence and data of encounters with these “ET’s”.
Among her many observations, she highlights how often it is that they appear as religious figures, or beings of light.
She shares how some people are traumatized from these events, while others believe they had mystical experiences, or were invited to special events among the aliens.
For example, I believe it was Karla that discusses the case of a woman who had an encounter, and went in for a hypnotic regression to try to remember. What she first recalled was being asked to speak in an auditorium in front of aliens from different worlds. She felt proud and like she was a special and honored guest.
I forget the details of how much time passed or what triggered it, but in this case, the woman returned for a deeper level of recall - only to discover that she was actually on an operating table, being poked and prodded and God knows what else, while the aliens projected these false memories into her mind of speaking at this event.
Another key observation she made is that there seems to be a lot of involvement by these beings in the life paths that people choose.
Imagine, for example, you are on a path of intensive study to become a scientist, but instead you have an experience with seemingly all-knowing aliens that tell you that you special, are part of their family, and are here to be an emissary for them or some such thing. Next thing you know, your hard work and studies seem less exciting and important, so you wait for “the event”… an event that never comes. Or hasn’t yet anyway.
I have shared before that I experienced something when I was a young child. I may never know what that something really was, or who or what was behind it. But I definitely recall having extremely strong feeling that the beings I was interacting with were NOT HUMAN. I also remember being told that I did not belong to my human family… that I was somehow connected to these other beings.
I loved my human family then and now. But it is true that I never felt like I really fit in or made sense to them. How much of that is actually because of what was programmed into me at such a young age? And if this is what happened (I know, another big-ass IF)… why was this done? What might my life had been like without this kind of intervention?
You can find many more videos of Dr Karla Turner on alternative video sites like Odysee or Bitchute, but I have included one from YouTube below if you are curious to hear more directly from her.
It is worth noting that she was warned to stop speaking up about these things. She refused. Coincidentally, in 1996 at age 48, Dr. Turner died from an aggressive fast-moving cancer after only months of illness.
What Is Real and How Do You Know?
As I continue the journey of understanding myself and my role in this world, I share these things to help you understand that just because something seems good and true, this doesn’t mean that it is being given to you for your benefit.
And even in cases where others may be misleading you, there’s no way to really know if they have an inkling or not that this is the case.
It is hard to think of a more accurate description of all of this than the Allegory of Plato’s cave. If it’s been some time since you reviewed this, no better time than now:
Why It’s So Critical To Know Yourself With Radically Honesty
Thus was arrive at the guidance given to us by Plato’s teacher, Socrates: Know Thyself.
As nerdy as it may sound, Socrates remains a huge influence of mine because he went about life pursuing truth by asking questions. And paid a hefty price for his courage to do so.
Note here that there were many in his time posing all sorts of ideas to the youths… none were as dangerous as the man getting them to ask penetrating questions. Thus he was given a choice - banishment or death, and he chose death.
What I have written in this article will hopefully give you some idea as to why self-awareness and radical honesty with yourself is so important.
A fundamental desire most humans have is a desire for meaning. Most want their lives to mean something in the end.
How can we pursue our own purpose in life and live a meaningful life is we allow ourselves to expend our creative energies investing in the manipulations of others? It’s one thing to align with a beloved, or with a person we deeply admire and aspire to be more like… it’s another thing entirely to align with some non-human entity that is anything but honest and clear with us about their true agenda and what is really happening.
As I keep saying throughout this article, this is not to say that ALL entities are inherently bad. This is not about who or what is “out there” as much as it is about you owning your own power.
While I utilize examples of others to shed light on the dynamics at work in our lives, my work is to always point you back to yourself. To know yourself. To unlock your potential. To activate your heart-centered intelligence which recognizes truth and connects you to source life energy directly.

A meditation group I was involved in a woman started “channeling.” Another woman in the group was writing what was coming through as she would channel for people and they were going to write a book together. I always had a bad vibe from this woman (she once commented on my strong boundaries) and when she was offering practice sessions didn’t offer to me and I didn’t ask. Our meditation coach had passed away and not long after came in a dream to the woman who was writing down the channeling and told her to remove herself from her association with this woman, that there was an entity involved and she was in danger. While alive our meditation leader didn’t pick up on this, and she was a gifted psychic, but missed this. Not until she got to the other side did she have the full view. To your point, Roger, this happens, it’s not so easy to see even for gifted people (our humanness can get in the way - the channeler had money, a home in Florida and would take our meditation leader to this home as a treat), and it’s easy to get drawn in.
