Although it may sometimes be necessary if your life is at risk, most of the times I think banishing just put more focus on seperation and therefore even if it has benefits it also has drawbacks. Banishing something you don't understand is like banishing an emotion inside of you without understanding it. It is like banishing yourself basically. It really depends on the situation but I'd doubt a life threatening entity would think it is worth bothering someone who has no experience. The entity would have to be high density and as such there would be very few polarity involved for it so it would search a more effective mean to increase it's polarity.

While I do agree with you, I would just say that my understanding of banishing is not actually something you are doing to the entity like saying "go away", it is more about creating a space of security and being centered within and around yourself. So, to me, the banishing is a way of making a space of clarity within the self so that whatever is being experienced can be assessed and experienced with a pure and clear mind. Banishing is not a 'permanent' solution unless it is done with decent regularity and even then it more just gives you a 'buffer' so that you do not get overwhelmed in a situation. Theoretically after any action of banishment there is then some kind of seeking or calling within the self for wisdom or understanding as to the situation and entity.

It's like how when some people have severe mental illness and they might benefit from the buffer of a medication while they deal with the root of the issue in therapy but ultimately will be able to go without it, with luck and care.

I think the word "banish" has some connotation to it that makes it come across as a rather severe action but to me it is more like grounding and centering. I can understand how it might appear that it makes a focus upon separation, but I actually view it the total opposite because when I banish I am focusing on the unity of the self and the fact that there is nothing "outside" me, so what I am actually banishing is the illusion of separation which causes the entity to either open with me in mutual connection, or if their intention is to control they will be shunted away from the presence of unifying love because they will be focused on the separation.

Thus, a banishing is effective only against those entities which would try to abridge your free will and will not cause a truly positive entity to be shunted away and this is how it is also a measure of what kind of entity is present. If you do a banishment and an entity is still present and loving, it is because it is in unity with you.

Of course, you can also choose to accept the control of the entity and give in to its will and desires, by all means.
