How to Protect Yourself from Evil Spirits: A Beginner's Guide to Buddhist Truths

Un-enlightened spirits often struggle to understand that they have become spirits.

As a result, they desperately try to communicate with those around them at home or work, but the living cannot hear the voices of spirits.

Gradually, un-enlightened spirits may possess someone to make their pleas heard, which can lead to that person experiencing health issues or mental illness.

When un-enlightened spirits start causing disturbances, they become known as 'evil spirits'.

What should we do to counter evil spirits?

In the world of the heart, there is a 'law of resonance', and evil spirits resonate with negative emotions like anger, jealousy, and hatred.

Therefore, if you have a 'bright and positive heart' that evil spirits dislike, they will naturally distance themselves.

When it is difficult to change your heart suddenly, start by creating a 'smile' and expressing 'words of gratitude'.

That effort of 'self-generation' is the secret to brightening your heart.

The cause of illness may be a 'living spirit'.

A living spirit is when a human's thoughts merge with a guardian spirit, affecting others.

For instance, if person A is burning with jealousy towards person B, the guardian spirit of A merges with that thought and sticks to B.

This is a state of being 'possessed by a living spirit', which can lead to health issues for the possessed B.

To repel living spirits and evil spirits, it is essential to constantly reflect on oneself and purify the heart to keep it shining.

To notice such evil spirit possession, it is important to learn the truth of Buddhism (the teachings of gods and Buddhas).

Evil spirits resonate with human desires, jealousy, anxiety, and other dark feelings, but when one learns the truth of Buddhism, the heart becomes bright, and the light of gods and Buddhas shines, allowing evil spirits to be removed.

Then both body and mind become lighter, and the world appears brighter.

Make daily teachings (※) a habit and acquire the wisdom to prevent possession.

Another secret to removing evil spirits is "gratitude".

Even those who say, "I can't reflect. I can't think of anything," should be able to practice "gratitude".

Think about, "Who has helped me the most?" and express gratitude to those people every day, and your heart's vibrations will change, making it impossible for evil spirits to possess you.

Evil spirits are not good at dealing with people who have the patience to continue reflecting and being grateful.

So, let's continue our heart training every day.

To maintain a state of not being possessed by evil spirits for a long time, it is important not only to strive individually but also to gather at branches or temples of Happy Science.

Branches and temples are a kind of barrier protected by spiritual auras.

By believing in Lord El Cantare and regularly gathering at branches or temples, deepen your solidarity with fellow practitioners of the truth.

Your power to protect yourself from evil spirits will strengthen.
