10 Writers Who Were Mentally Disturbed

47.7 Questioner: Can you define what you mean by a “crystallized entity?”

Ra: I am Ra. We have used this particular term because it has a fairly precise meaning in your language. When a crystalline structure is formed of your physical material the elements present in each molecule are bonded in a regularized fashion with the elements in each other molecule. Thus the structure is regular and, when fully and perfectly crystallized, has certain properties. It will not splinter or break; it is very strong without effort; and it is radiant, traducing light into a beautiful refraction giving pleasure of the eye to many.

The True Cause Of Depression

The True Cause Of Depression

That was an interesting read. Well written, I think. I've suffered from depression a couple of times in life. Once when I experienced several major life losses withing a very short time frame. One period during which I was diagnosed as "depressed" turned out to be a case of hypothyroidism.

thank you for sharing!

[Cyan]

The odd thing about depression is that it has psychotic symptoms, in that you hallucinate sober when you are depressed but never quite get it, unlike in hallucinogens when you immediately get you are hallucinating.

Its difficult to explain how depression can produce seamless hallucinations that you cant really differentiate from "normal life".

[AnthroHeart]

Cyan, that could have been depression I was experiencing if indeed it's coupled with hallucinations, rather than schizophrenia, but I can't say for sure. I hallucinated the voice of God and seeing a couple of people that weren't there sort of in a shadowy way. It freaked me out a bit. But hearing God wasn't like hearing a person talking to me. It was more like a thought form.

That's the problem with schizo disorders, is that you can't tell them from normal life. They can make you do things you wouldn't ordinarily do. It's like being in a dream when you don't know you're dreaming.

When i was super depressed i literally hallucinated my friends to be angry at me.

It is kind of like the call in your heart for communication is so strong and the bandwith allowed is so narrow that the guides are given two choices, use the bandwith in the way specificed with the intent of gaining a larger bandwith, or dont use it at all.

That is, go along with the "I only accept contact if it comes from a chicken" type depressed thought while trying to, at the same time, get the depressed person to drop the aformentioned only accepting chickens clause.

It is kind of like a call so strong that some gravitate towards it and since you are saying "hit me to make me feel better" they are seriously lacking options.

That causes "them" to "change" to "hostile" while still "friendly" for "real".

It is not strictly that you "hallucinate" them, but rather, that you force you rother selves to talk to you through such a narrow bandwith due to the self constricting effects of depression that it could, just as well, be hallucination. because if they dont play along with it and leave you alone you take it as a proof of your bad nature, if they play along and hurt you you take it as proof of your bad nature, if they dont play along and simply collapse your field by infringing you take it as proof of your bad nature. And a perfect catch 20 is ready.

I thank my lucky stars every day that my guides managed to show me a few glimpes of how this works in my case for real and while its not somethign to really feel thankful for, i at least have an idea on where roughly to point my "righteous improvement sense" and get to work.

I can relate to this. When I was really depressed I would go out and every conversation I heard sounded like people were criticizing me and I would just assume that people would see me and instantly gauge my "lack of worth" (which was all in my head anyhow) and so I would enter every social interaction with that assumption. I even had one instance where I was walking home and I heard two people behind me saying really nasty stuff about me and I was too scared to turn around and face them for a while and then when I finally did no one was there.

[Cyan]

I remember a fight I got into with a bum that asked for money and when I didn't give him any he kicked me. I proceeded to throw him around the sidewalk and the situation escalated, when I called the caps he fled.

The next day I heard a few kids follow behind me and mockingly repeat what I said in the fight "I have the right to defend myself" in a mocking almost demonic voice.

There are more cases of stuff like this than I care to repeat. Usually when I ignore them they go away. Sometimes I want to turn around and ask them in a really deep summoned demonic voice / astral self what they think they are doing mocking a wizard on the street and then proceeding to tear their souls in half.

But usually I just smile and note the interesting synchronisity between what I did and what others who have no real knowledge of me see me doing.

Being Evil and Doing Evil: Are They Always The Same?

[Cyan]

my opinion, they are rarely the same.

[AnthroHeart]

I once had a gremlin that appeared behind me while I was awake in my bed. I woke up in an in-between state, and he was growling and saying some stuff in a foreign language/gremlin-speak. When I called on the name of Jesus to clear him, he spit on me. Then I got up and he was gone.

[Confused]

my opinion, they are rarely the same.

Yeah, a piece of sensitive writing of a personal story. A thought-provoking article that lets one think of the shadow inside all, the dark primitive instinctual urge that can create or wreak utter destruction, if not channeled properly.

The Archetype of Fear

[Ruth]

I can still vividly recall a dream I had that dealt with my fear of being anesthetized. I needed some surgery, and had it scheduled, but had never been "put under" in my life. In the dream I was driving my little 4-speed manual hatchback car down a steep hill on a very narrow lane along the edge of a very calm, smooth lake. I ended up driving right down into the water, and sank under the water. I had a very brief moment of panic, but then realized that I could still breathe and that everything was just fine. When I woke I realized that I was telling myself that all would be well with the surgery.

Indeed, a couple of days later, I had the surgery with no complications

anyone else read the Flow book? (The Psychology of Optimal Experience)

it was one of the first books which explained the fluid nature of time to me; how experientially it is person's relationship to an experience which dictates how fast/slow it goes. Or even timeless it goes.

anyone else read the Flow book? (The Psychology of Optimal Experience)

it was one of the first books which explained the fluid nature of time to me; how experientially it is person's relationship to an experience which dictates how fast/slow it goes. Or even timeless it goes.

It is often heard of in terms of physical exploits, like footballers and gymnasts. To me, it seems to be the intense grounding in the present moment, which eradicates the feeling of the flow of time, or timelessness.

Pleasure and pain both have these properties to a great extent, with pain being even more grounding. Wonder why pure negativity will not allow any prospering of positivity, but the opposite is not always true?!

71.14 Questioner: You have made the statement that pure negativity acts as a gravity well pulling all into it. I was wondering first if pure positivity has precisely the same effect? Could you answer that please?

Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. Positivity has a much weaker effect due to the strong element of recognition of free will in any positivity approaching purity. Thus although the negatively oriented entity may find it difficult to polarize negatively in the midst of such resounding harmony it will not find it impossible.

Upon the other hand, the negative polarization is one which does not accept the concept of the free will of other-selves. Thusly in a social complex whose negativity approaches purity the pull upon other-selves is constant. A positively oriented entity in such a situation would desire for other-selves to have their free will and thusly would find itself removed from its ability to exercise its own free will, for the free will of negatively oriented entities is bent upon conquest.

[AnthroHeart]

Confused, that is so insightful about pure positivity does allow prospering of negativity (the opposite of what you said). Seeking is a tricky and difficult thing. I wish it wasn't so hard sometimes to know the truth.
