Neuroses are caused by spirits

by CR (016)

Article written by: Dr. Antonio Pinheiro guedes

I shall now demonstrate which is already obvious in itself except for the organicists and materialists, that neuroses are diseases caused by spiritual hardships or simply induced by disincarnated spirits, roaming earth's atmosphere in what is known as the inferior astral.

In medicine, the word 'neuroses' is applied to a disease state consisting of functional disturbances without physical lesions or appreciable causes. These are found in relational life and in vegetative life as well.

Neuroses centred in the digestive, circulatory and respiratory systems, are seldom impulsive, capable of ruling the will, like dispepsy, asthma and angina pectoris. However, neuroses which affect relational life and consist of alterations in motility, sensibility or intelligence can disturb, interrupt, alienate the will, smother the conscience. They may turn a human being into a wild animal. This type of neurose, which affect animal life, is not related to any organic cause worthy of mention. 

Among these, Nostalgia and Hypochondria are mere outward expressions of a state of mind. Others translate into a disorder of the relationship between body and soul like Catalepsy. Still others, like Hysteria, are complex conditions, a mixture of psychic disorder and interference of a foreign, invisible will or activity, such as a spirit. Finally, others like insanity are mostly spiritic phenomena, facts of psychic life. In these cases the patient is simply a possessed medium.

The phenomena of possession means the control of an incarnated spirit (human being) by a disincarnate one. The latter takes possession of the former, either abruptly and violently, or slowly and surreptitiously. in either case, hysteria is the so-called split personality which is rather a duplication of the individual. As the soul cannot separate itself completely from the body, because that would bring death, what really happens is the overcoming of the incarnated (person) by the disincarnated spirit, the control of the latter over the former, who not withstanding remains attached to its body, in its possession, although upset and overcome.

This is acceptable and understandable, whereas the split personality, as seen by organicists or materialists is absurd. Unity is indivisible, man is one, undivided. 

Insanity, in most cases, is an obsession. Sometimes, it is a mere hallucination of the senses. At other times it is a mental disorder or perversion of moral sense. Sometimes it is depression, quasi-annihilation of psychic faculties, true beastliness.

These are states of mind caused by the more or less direct action of disincarnated spirits or even incarnated spirits (human beings) exercising influence over people in various ways: from mere ceaseless, constant, stubborn suggestion to direct, vigorous, violent action, causing the so-called attacks and rages.

The disincarnated spirit acts either driven by love or hate and under the influence of one of those feelings. However, by controlling its passions, it (the disincarnated spirit) tries to earn the confidence of its victim (person). Its action is often intentionally slow but mild, ceaseless but tender. if however, passion overwhelms the disincarnated spirit, the (spiritual) aggression can be violent and brutal.

This explains the cause of the varied, almost infinite forms of hysteria, beginning with plain sadness or joy without justifiable reason, from abstraction, elation, rapture, ecstasy, down to insanity. It may start with the victim singing or dancing, screaming and crying with no reason, until he or she furiously tears his or her clothing, struggles and falls to the ground, and convulses in ghastly, horrifying contortions. These, to be rationally and adequately explained, can only be attributed to the nature of the feeling which inspires, excites and impels the aggressor or obsessor (disincarnated) spirit.

Similarly the various forms of insanity are explained. These cannot be attributed to brain disease. Autopsy performed on individuals who died of intercurrent diseases, soon after the beginning of insanity, has never disclosed the slightest organic injury to the brain. On the other hand, significant changes have been found in the brains of people who died after a prolonged state of insanity. This clearly shows that such lesions are the product, not the cause, of psychic disorders.

Such facts may be observed and analysed by any person. And those who do it without preconceived ideas, without submission to schools of thought or sects, free from all restraints, will admit their truth.
