An Entrepreneurs Guide To Ayahuasca (Part 3)- Demons
An Entrepreneurs Guide To Ayahuasca (Part 3)- Demons
"For entrepreneurs, this understanding of low vibrational frequencies and the power of high vibrational energy is crucial.
When we allow ourselves to be dragged down by low vibrational emotions and experiences, we become vulnerable to these parasitic entities that can drain our creativity, motivation, and abundance."

Part 3- DEMONS.
'When she turned, she saw two male demons standing with long black cloaks partially covering their hideous faces.
In horror, she noticed two tubes attached to her side sucking out something from her body. What was it? Life force?
She quickly pulled out the tubes and stared at the two demons. When the tubes were severed, they scurried out of the room.'

Unfortunately, this isn't an excerpt from a new horror movie...
It's an experience from one of our members' Ayahuasca journey.

The day started with the gentle rise breathwork practice. This 20-minute practice in the sun left us feeling relaxed, energized, joyful, and ready for the day.
Immediately after, we enjoyed an outdoor beginner-friendly yoga session to open up our energetic channels, stretch the body, and get the blood flow moving.
After, we had a breakfast consisting of eggs, oatmeal, fresh berries, and organic sourdough bread. The mood was excited and joyful as participants shared their transformative experiences from the ayahuasca the night before.
When we were all satisfied, we retreated to the large 40 x 40ft tent to formally share our experiences with the group.
There were stories of healing, forgiveness, insights, truth, and transformation. For the most part, all of the participants had very enjoyable and positive experiences.
However, one of the participants, let's call her Jane, had a particularly troubling experience...
Jane's Escape From Hell
Jane (not her real name) is a successful entrepreneur from London in her mid-30's. For the past 15 years, she ran multiple entertainment businesses from talent agencies to nightclub entertainment and staffing agencies.
Although she didn't know anyone else at the retreat, she quickly made friends and connected with the group due to her pleasant, humorous, and friendly attitude.
From her dress, it was clear she's financially successful from her jewelry, luxury watch, and designer clothing.
Jane's reason for being at the retreat, in her own words, was, "because I have a lot of trauma to release".
None of us had any idea of the level of trauma she was talking about until she shared her first night's ayahuasca experience in the morning sharing session...
"At first, I could see all these complex cities with metal and concrete everywhere. Some of them looked like Earth, others looked like alien cities.
As each city was shown to me, eventually I saw that they all got taken over by nature.
Grass would creep through a crack in the concrete, vines would climb up skyscrapers and weaken it.
Eventually, nature reclaimed everything in every one of these cities.
I know what the message is for me.
I've been living my life very materialistically, and Mother Aya was showing me that it will all be taken away.
I, and perhaps we as a species, need to live closer to nature. I feel less attached to these materialistic things now."
But then it got dark...
"I could hear a loud screeching sound coming into my left ear.
I was trying to ignore it while I was having the experience, but it was so loud and annoying that eventually, I opened my eyes and turned around to see what it was.
That's when I saw this huge machine whirring and screeching right next to me.
I noticed two tubes coming out of the machine, and they were attached to my side. It was clear that it was sucking something out of me.
Life force?
I pulled out the tubes and then saw these two demon-looking figures with long black coats with hoods staring at me.
It looked like they were operating the machine. They were hideous.
I started to get up from the table, and they scurried out of the room.
Then I woke up."
Jane then went on to share that she's been in a dark place emotionally and in life for a very long time.
In fact, the motivation to come to this retreat was that she was in a physically abusive relationship which ended up with the guy she was with beating her up.
He then proceeded to stab himself in front of her and called the police, accusing her of doing it.
Luckily, the police saw right through the lies, and that man is now in jail.
Obviously, that was a scarring experience for Jane.
Unfortunately, she had been on the receiving end of physical abuse from men since she was a little girl.
Her step-father doled out so much physical abuse to her as a child that if the authorities found out, he would be in jail for life.
Since that scarring as a child, she came to expect the abuse and has had it play over and over again, countless times with men throughout her life.
She observed that she's been carrying a lot of shame and guilt throughout her life around these experiences.
Now here's an important lesson for you...
Remember when I shared Dr. David Hawkins', 'Map of Consciousness' in part 2- The Purge?
(Check the Map Of Consciousness by Dr David Hawkins)
According to certain spiritual beliefs, when you carry low vibration emotions (energy in motion) that are at the lower end of the scale, these low vibration energies may allow parasitic entities (demons) to feed off your 'prana', or life force.
Some spiritual traditions hold that these demons are not just metaphorical but could potentially be actual unseen beings that exist in the unseen realms, drawn to and sustained by the energy of fear, shame, guilt, and trauma.
They are believed to attach themselves to individuals who are vibrating at these lower frequencies, creating a vicious cycle of negativity and suffering.
(In the New Testament, Jesus and his disciples were known for casting out these demons.)
This concept aligns with what Jane encountered during her ayahuasca experience.
The machine with tubes attached to her side, operated by hideous demon-like figures, could be interpreted as a representation of how these entities were siphoning her life force, taking advantage of the unresolved trauma and emotional baggage she had been carrying for so long.
Many spiritual traditions believe, and personally I agree, that when you're living in high vibration energy, such as love, joy, and gratitude (higher ends of the Map of Consciousness), these demonic entities cannot exist in your presence.
They are thought to be repelled by the light and positivity that emanates from a person vibrating at these higher frequencies.
This is why prayer, chanting, gratitude and even a relationship with Jesus are considered powerful tools for protection and transformation in various spiritual practices.
In the Kali Santarana Upanishads, an ancient Hindu text, it is said that one can shake off the evil effects of the Kali (darkness and ignorance, otherwise known as low vibration energy) by chanting the Hare Krishna mantra:
Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare, Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare.
By repeating these sacred names of the Divine, it is believed that a powerful spiritual vibration is invoked, purifying one's energy field and creating a shield of protection against negative influences and entities.
For entrepreneurs, understanding the potential impact of low vibrational frequencies and the power of high vibrational energy can be crucial.
When we allow ourselves to be dragged down by low vibrational emotions and experiences, some believe we become vulnerable to parasitic entities that can drain our creativity, motivation, and abundance.
In fact, Napoleon Hill, the famous author of Think & Grow Rich, warned us entrepreneurs of how low vibration energy tries to thwart us in his book, 'Outwitting The Devil' back in 1938.
By consciously cultivating love, gratitude, and compassion in our lives and businesses, and by incorporating practices like chanting and prayer, we can elevate our vibration and create a powerful forcefield of positive energy that not only repels negative entities but also attracts success, abundance, and fulfillment.
Jane's story is a potent reminder that the battle between light and darkness is not just an abstract concept but a tangible reality that we must confront on a daily basis, according to certain spiritual beliefs.
As entrepreneurs, we have the power to choose which side of this battle we will align ourselves with, and by choosing love, gratitude, and spiritual connection, we can become powerful agents of transformation in our own lives and in the world around us.
Obviously, it is always advisable to approach such ideas with an open mind and of course to seek guidance from qualified professionals when dealing with trauma or mental health concerns.
(Jane was provided with referred to a licensed therapist that could help with her traumatic past at the retreat).
The rest of the day was spent chanting to raise our vibrational frequency, followed by a 1-hour meditation session to prepare for the final night of Ayahuasca.
The experience of chanting and meditation can be deeply calming and uplifting, regardless of one's spiritual beliefs.
These practices have been shown to have numerous mental and physical health benefits, such as reducing stress, improving focus, and promoting emotional well-being.
As we conclude this part of the journey, it is clear that the ayahuasca experience has brought to light the profound impact of our emotional and energetic states on our lives and businesses.
By embracing practices that elevate our vibration and cultivate positive emotions, we can create a strong foundation for personal and professional growth.
