How To Consecrate Your Home And Land As A Refuge For Your Home Or Apartment: You will need exorcised water and exorcised salt, which are even more potent against the enemy than blessed water and blessed salt. See www.CountdowntotheKingdom.com and click on “Spiritual Protection” for the prayer of exorcism over the water and salt, which a priest or deacon can say. The following consecration is done by the owner of the property: Inside your home, take the exorcised holy water and say the following prayer from your heart: “In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, God the Father, through Your Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, Who shed His Blood on the Cross to save us, I consecrate my home to you. It is yours. Use it as You will for the safety of Your people. I consecrate my home to You, through the intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, to be under the wings of the Holy Spirit for the time of purification.” Sprinkle the holy water in the four corners of the house, making a sign of the cross, as you say, “In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.” For Land That You Own: Do the same for your land, using the exorcised salt. Outside on your land, take the exorcised blessed salt and say the following prayer from your heart: “In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, God the Father, through Your Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, Who shed His Blood on the Cross to save us, I consecrate my land to you. It is Yours. Use it as You will for the safety of Your people. I consecrate my land to you, through the intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, to be under the wings of the Holy Spirit for the time of purification.” Make the sign of the cross as you sprinkle the exorcised salt onto the land and say, “In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.” When the salt mingles with the earth, it enters into the land and consecrates it. God knows the size of your property and its boundaries. .

A Psychology of Possession
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Wales Trinity Saint David A PSYCHOLOGY OF POSSESSION DR PETER CONNOLLY Introduction : The Nature of Trance Although widespread, the phenomenon of possession does not appear in all cultures. This suggests that possession is a cultural artefact, either in the strong sense of being nothing more than a cultural creation or in the weaker one of culture moulding and shaping universal psychological processes in socially relevant ways. My own approach to understanding possession lies very much within the framework of the weaker version. The hypothesis I will seek to develop is essentially that the phenomena of possession are best understood in terms of the psychological processes associated with the term ‘trance’. I use this term deliberately and in full awareness of the reservations about its usefulness expressed by some psychologists. Among hypnosis researchers there are three broad approaches to explaining the nature of trance. The first is that which emphasises socio-cognitive factors such as role play and imaginative involvement in suggested experiences. In short, this approach explains away any feature of trance which provides it with a distinctive character. This view would be compatible with what I have called the strong version of cultural artifactualism. Another approach emphasizes that trance is a genuine altered state of consciousness which differs from ordinary consciousness in a variety of ways, most notably in that reflexive, executive or ego consciousness – what many hypnotists call ‘the conscious mind’ – is dissociated from unconscious processes. The third approach is more diffuse, combining the first two explanations and, depending on the writer, perhaps adding a few other elements to produce a kind of multi-variable theory.

To begin with, the entire fieldwork and data collection process would have been impossible without the financial support that I received from the Australian Government. In this regard I also owe thanks to James Cook University and the College of Medicine and Dentistry, and especially to Professor Frances Quirk who generously provided financial assistance in order to bring the project to fruition. Over the course of my doctoral candidature, I have had the good fortune of working with a wonderfully diverse supervisory team: Spanning neuroscience to psychology and anthropology, Professor Zoltán Sarnyai, Professor Frances Quirk, and Doctor Robin Rodd have allowed me the freedom to pursue a unique path whilst still providing guidance and support according to their areas of expertise.

Demonic Possession and Exorcism
Demonic possession and exorcism A comparative study of two books that deal with the Klingenberg case Geoffrey Fagge Umeå universitet Vt16 Institutionen för idé och samhällsstudier Religionsvetenskap III, Kandidatuppsats 15 hp Handledare: Olle Sundström ABSTRACT This study examines how two writers deal with demonic possession and exorcism in their written works that both have a common theme, the same alleged case of possession and exorcism. By comparing these written works I explore if the authors share any common or varying theories on possession and exorcism and investigate if the common theme of the two books has contributed to the authors writing similar books. My results show that the two authors deal with demonic possession and exorcism differently, one has theological views of the phenomena but is sceptical of their role in the alleged case, whilst the other believes that demonic possession and exorcism can be explained using scientific theories and that they are phenomena that played a part in the alleged case. The two books are quite different. I conclude that both writers’ theories of the phenomena are dependent on the existence of the phenomenon of religion. Keywords, authors, writers, demonic possession, exorcism, the alleged case, theological views, scientific theories and religion.

It is a Warner Brothers film that was released in 1973 and directed by William Friedkin. It was produced and written by William Peter Blatty. The Exorcist stars Ellen Burstyn as Chris MacNeil (an actress and single mother), Jason Miller as Father Karras and Linda Blair as Regan MacNeil (the possessed little girl). The voice of possessed Regan was played by Mercedes McCambridge, who acted frequently on the radio (The Exorcist 1973). The Exorcist was nominated for Best Cinematography, but won Best Picture, and Best Director. The movie also won Best Sound, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress, and much more. This classic horror film is rated R because not only is it extremely scary, but it is filled with swearing, sexual talk, sexual images and actions, violence and much more (Movies: The Exorcist 1973).

A Simple Exorcism. a Prayer Against Satan
A Simple Exorcism. A Prayer Against Satan. for Priests or Laity. Prayer Against Satan and the Rebellious Angels. Published by Order of His Holiness Pope Leo XIII. but adjusted to conform with "Inde Ab Aliquot Annis" of 29 September 1985. The following is a simple exorcism prayer that can be said by priests or laity. The term “exorcism” does NOT always denote a solemn exorcism involving a person possessed by the devil. In general, the term denotes prayers to “curb the power of the devil and prevent him from doing harm.” As Saint Peter had written in Holy Scripture, “your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, goeth about seeking whom he may devour.” (1 Saint Peter 5:8) The Holy Father exhorts priests to say this prayer as often as possible, as a simple exorcism to curb the power of the devil and prevent him from doing harm. The faithful also may say it in their own name, for the same purpose, as any approved prayer. Its use is recommended whenever action of the devil is suspected, causing malice in men, violent temptations and even storms and various calamities. It could be used as a solemn exorcism (an official and public ceremony, in Latin), to expel the devil. It would then be said by a priest, in the name of the Church and only with a Bishop's permission. Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. Most glorious Prince of the Heavenly Armies, Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in “our battle against principalities and powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places” (Ephesians, 6:12).

Sathya Sai Speaks, Volume 2
39. The Inner Prompting HE day is Vyasa Purnami, and it is also celebrated throughout India as Guru Purnima. The importance of the Tday has been explained now by the lawyer from Repalle in Telugu, by Vineetha Ramachandra Rao in Kan- nada, and by the Editor of Sanathana Sarathi in English. Well, I shall also speak now. Whatever My language, I speak not to inform but more to heal. I administer medicine for your minds, not food for your brains — or, rather, it is both. Like honey, it is both food and drug. There is nothing specially related to Sage Vyasa that makes this day attached to his name. He was not born on this day, nor did he ‘leave’ on this day; it is just dedicated to his memory and to the worship of all gurus. For Vyasa is the the first and the source of all spiritual teachers. He recognised and declared the Truth in a variety of ways and helped to open the inner eye of humanity. He described in beautiful, simple, clear terms the glory of the Lord and of the means of attaining Him. He saw that unless the mind is negated or destroyed, the Lord will not be manifest. He prescribed the paths by which this could be done. So he is the world teacher (lokaguru), the greatest teacher (paramaguru). He collected the hymns, collated them, and put them into the four Vedas; he assembled the later Vedic lit- erature and composed the Brahma Sutras (Aphorisms on Supreme Reality) to expound the philosophy that was inherent in it.

James Brousseau, Aaron Ullrey, and Greg Hillis have each developed my thinking for what became Section IV. My wife, Stefany Olague, also read numerous drafts, accompanied me at conferences, and always encouraged me to push forward in my career. She is my best friend and it is through her love and care that I was able to complete this adventure. The foundation of this thesis started during my final year at the University of Rochester. Thus, I am still indebted to Joshua Dubler and Nora Rubel. Finally, my current advisor has been nothing but supportive of this project. I am a better scholar because of his guidance. I cannot remember his name right now but it will come to me. iii ABSTRACT The Game of Exorcism: A Spatial Analysis of Religious Practice by William Samuel Chavez The academic study of exorcism is theoretically weak and limited because the scholarship is largely disjointed, partitioned into sets of case studies described, analyzed, and theorized according to specific cultures and histories.

Trends in Medicine Research Article ISSN: 1594-2848 Experience of health professionals around an exorcism: A case report José Luis Mosso Vázquez1* and Carlos Jesús Castañeda Gonzalez2 1Emergency surgeon at the Regional and General Hospital Unit 25, Mexican Institute of Social Security, Mexico City 2Medical Director, Psychiatry Hospital Fray Bernardino Alvarez, Mexico City Abstract Objective: To describe the experiences of health profesionals around a case of exorcism. Methodology: There were 16 people in total that participated in the project “Resting Stated-Tractography-fMRI in initial phase of spiritual possession.” 13 of them are health professionals: a surgeon, psychiatrist, psychologist, neurophysiologist, family medicine physician, neurosurgeon, 2 radiology technicians, a gynecologist, medical doctor, diagnostic radiology physician, exorscist and patient (Ex former medical student). The priest, mother and an aunt of the patient were not included. The data collection (personal experiences) happened between 8 days before and 49 days after the exorcism with fMRI. A survey (see attached) was also carried out. Results: 8 out of 13 participants (61.53%) had accidents and sudden events that put their lives in danger as well as the delay in the analysis of project data in a period of 57 days surrounding an exorcism. Eight days before the exorcism, the psychiatrist experienced malfunctioning of his computer, allowing to visualize only the video of the patient´t possession after turning on the computer. Seven days after the exorcism, the surgeon had a high-energy head trauma with no complications, chest trauma and multiple bruises in a forest accident with fall from one meter tall; he also had a MVA (motor vehicle accident) 15 minutes before receiving the images of the patient’s tractografies 37 days after exoscism, resulting in back muscular contractures.

Exorcism and Enlightenment: Johann Joseph Gassner and the Demons of Eighteenth-Century Germany Abstract Once upon a time, scholars were sure that the Reformation had "disenchanted" the world. Max Weber said so, after all. By casting aside saints' relics and sacramentals, Protestant theologians seemed to have undercut the "magic of the medieval church" and created a more modern and "rational" form of religion. Then we noticed the inconvenient truth that witch-hunting had continued and, in fact, had reached its height during the Reformation era. The cS ientific Revolution seemed the next obvious period to locate disenchantment and the clear transition from a magical and spirit-obsessed premodern world to empirical, rational modernity. The closer one looks at early modern science, however, the less it appears to have marked an absolute break from other contemporary modes of thought.
