Spirituality
and Discernment
My
brothers and sisters today spirituality has taken a different turn because of
the open doors on the internet. Many young children and adults are unaware of
the snare that is imbedded with messages on the internet. There are several
occult groups on the internet which are not transparent about their occult
witchcraft foundations.
Many
of these groups are organized by claims of “awakening”. America’s Christian roots
provide us with strong foundations about what awakening really is. Awakening is
when the Holy Ghost ascends upon us and we live and walk as one with our
heavenly father, God and Christ.
Psalm 57:8 Awake, my soul! Awake, harp and lyre! I
will awaken the dawn.
Many of these occult groups are shrouded
in the illusion that they “light” and will project psychological impressions
that they are shrouded with assistance from archangels. Ashtar is the first one
I’d like to address, the name Ashtar derives from the name Ashraroth from our
scripture which described a country of place within the kingdom of Og. The kingdom of Og was the land of the giants
whom were seen as the offspring of the fallen angels.
Joshua 13:12 ; that is, the whole kingdom of Og in
Bashan, who had reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei. (He was the last of the
Rephaites.) Moses had defeated them and taken over their land.
Wikipedia is diverse in its description
and unbiased; Astaroth (also Ashtaroth, Astarot and Asteroth), in demonology,
is a Crowned Prince of Hell.
He is a male figure named after the Canaanite
goddess Ashtoreth.
Also; The pseudepigraphal
work Testament of Solomon, attributed to King Solomon
of Israel, but thought to date to the early centuries AD, mentions
"Asteraoth" (in Greek) as an angel, who is opposed to the demon of
power. (cf. 1 Kings 11:4-5)

We need to reflect on King David and
his actions to convent another man’s wife. So you understand that this group
can in no way be a true path to light.
The next group is Bashar which is the
same thing, from the scripture Joshua 13:12 quoted above, Bashar is like Bashan
which was the whole kingdom of Og. The Nephilim, the offspring of the fallen
who mated with woman.
It is important that it is understood in
its full truth that these groups plus several others that make the claim of
awakening or are of the light are essentially magical clans shrouded in
witchcraft and demonology. They use all the techniques of Kundalini to project
demonic entities and place them upon you. Here is a quote from an article that
reveals this nature;
Is it Safe to
Awaken the Snake?
A
kundalini awakening is when energy flows freely upward through the chakras and
leads to an expanded state of consciousness. But is it safe?
By Nora
Isaacs
According
to Tantra, kundalini
energy rests like a coiled serpent at the base of the spine. When this dormant
energy flows freely upward through the seven chakras (energy centers) and leads
to an expanded state of consciousness, it's known as a kundalini awakening.
For some,
the experience can be blissful and filled with feelings of love and a sense of
the interconnectedness of all things. For others, it can feel more like a bad
drug trip, or even a psychotic break, where practitioners go through altered
sleep cycles, changes in identity, or depression. This discrepancy has led many
Westerners to fear the coiled serpent resting in their spine, ready to strike.
Meditation teacher Sally
Kempton had such an awakening in her late 20s, and while she acknowledges that
the experience may be scary for those who are without an experienced teacher to
guide them, she believes that awakenings are a gift from the universe. "In
our tradition, we honor and respect kundalini," she says.
"Her energy is trying to awaken you, expand you, and put you in touch with
your own deep energy, which is a fundamentally benign process."
However,
according to Kempton and Stuart Sovatsky, a psychotherapist specializing in
spiritual work, kundalini
awakenings are rare in Western students because hatha yoga is practiced in
a less spontaneous way today. "People are trying to hold the poses in a
certain way, as opposed to doing poses that release energy blocks specific to
their body," says Sovatsky.
Still,
many teachers caution against attempts to induce an awakening through intense
pPranayama or other methods. Instead, it should occur spontaneously, when the
body is ready. In Tantra: The Path of Ecstasy, yoga scholar Georg
Feuerstein explains why: "If you don't first open the central channels of
the nervous system, raising the serpent power along the axial pathway is not
only impossible but also very dangerous to attempt, for instead of entering the
central channel (sushumna nadi) it is likely to force itself in to the ida
or the pingala nadi, on either side of the central channel, causing
immense havoc in the body and mind."
Kundalini reminds us that
consciousness is far vaster than most of us have ever imagined, which can seem
overwhelming and disorienting.
My brothers and sisters, be mindful there
is only one true way to the real light of heaven, that is through Christ.
Following the Holy Spirit bears it own fruit; unconditional love, true peace
and pure love. Be extremely careful, members of these occult groups will
perform Kundalini without your permission or awareness. No spirit will approach
you as a twin flame and take you as a wife. No spirit from high realms will
speak with you in your thoughts, the higher realm spirits are always respectful
and use the language of images and never try to become within you. These fallen
ones project many false area’s such as those you would think would be from
higher realms, this is to create a false sense of trust and make you feel you
are as they are. The intention is always to bring you into a place of emotional
stress and discord.
Please do not allow your free will to be
violated and insist always upon your sovereignty.
Remember the true spirit of Christ flows
like a river, it is always respectful and loving, it dwells in the ethereal energy
all around you and about you. The Holy Spirit is Ruach, the breath of God.
