When others begin to show hostility and unkindness towards you, just know this is the Wetiko/Archontic Parasitic Manifestation speaking through that host.
(we fight not against flesh and blood but spiritual wickedness in high and low places)
The host will begin to feel the emotions of the Archontic/Wetiko parasites which feels like jealousy, envy, discord, confusion, heaviness, superiority and darkness!
That host will take on these emotions as their own and will project these emotions towards the other brother or sister, without real eyes in they are agents/hosts of the Wetiko/Archontic Parasites!
Unconditional love is never threatened by anyone or anything.
Unconditional love is freedom
Unconditional love is healing
Unconditional love is kind and gentle
Unconditional love is never controlling
Unconditional love is what’s lacking in our world!
I have chosen to become the embodiment of unconditional love!
I remove myself from all Archontic/Wetiko Parasites who seek to control my flow!
I never compromise with dark forces EVER!
BY THEIR WORDS
BY THEIR FRUITS
WE SHALL KNOW THEM
THEY CANNOT HIDE IN THE PRESENCE OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!
I AM MUCH STRONGER TODAY!

ALL NARCISSISTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN OVER BY ARCHONTIC PARASITES - NARCISSISTIC TRAITS
1. PATHOLOGICAL LYING; is skillfully deceptive and very convincing. Avoids accountability by diverting topics, dodging questions, and making up new lies, bluffs or threats when questioned. His memory is self serving as he denies past statements.
2. CONTRACT BREAKER; agrees to anything then turns around and does the opposite. This con artist will accuse YOU of being the contract breaker.
3. HIGH ROLLER; Successfully backstabs his way to the top. His family is a disposable prop in his success facade. Is charismatic, eloquent and intelligent in his field, but often falsifies abilities and credentials. Needs to have iron-fisted control and relyies on his manipulation skills. Ruthlessly exploits or targets others in pursuit of his ever-changing agenda. Mercilessly abuses the power of his position. A vindictive bully in the office with no social or personal conscience. Often suspicious and paranoid.
4. USES SEXUALITY; is often hypersexual (male or female). Pornography, masturbation, and incest are reported by his victims. Easily bored, he demands increasingly deviant stimulation. May also withhold sex or emotional support as means of control.
5. BLAME-GAME;never accepts responsibility. Blames others for his failures and circumstances. A master at projection.
6. VIOLENT; may be a wife-beater, murderer, serial killer, stalker, terrorist. Has a ‘chip-on-his-shoulder’ attitude. He lashes out and destroys or uses others (particularly women and children) as scapegoats for his aggression or revenge. Poor impulse control. He will try to make YOU look out of control. Can become dangerous and unpredictable. Has no remorse or regard for the rights of others.
7. CONTROLLING/MANIPULATING; pits people against each other. Is verbally skilled at twisting words and actions. Is charismatic and usually gets his way. Undermines your support network and discourages you from seeing family and friends. Other people’s money is often his objective. He is ruthless, demanding and cruel. May appear pitiful and in need of help-you rush in to help him with your finances, assets, and talents. You may be used as his proxy to interact with others on his behalf- as he sets you up to take the fall.
8. SUBSTANCE ABUSE Alcohol, drugs, you name it-he does it. We see his over-indulgence in food, exercise or sex and his need for instant gratification.
9. “SOUL MATE”; is cunning and will come on strong, sweep you off your feet. He seems to have the same values, interests, goals, tastes, habits. He admires your intellect, ambition, honesty and sincerity. He wants to marry you quickly. He fakes integrity, appears helpful, comforting, generous in the initial phase. Eventually Jekyll turns into Hyde and his discarded victims suffer emotional and financial devastation. You may be discarded quickly as he attaches to a “new perfect soul mate”.
10. QUIET AND ISOLATED; appears socially withdrawn, dirty, and unkempt. Odd thinking is observed. Used as a disguise to appear pitiful to obtain whatever he can.
11. SADISTIC; he watches with obvious enjoyment as he inflicts emotional, financial, physical and verbal cruelty. He takes pleasure in taking other people’s assets. His target: women, children, the elderly, anyone vulnerable.
12. RAGES; flies off the handle with little or no provocation. Has disproportionate overreactions and childish tantrums. His rage can be intimidating. He wants control, attention and compliance. Any reaction is his payoff- good or bad attention. Your fear, crying, yelling, name calling, or hatred are his objectives
13. BRAINWASHING; is very charismatic and able to manipulate others to obtain status, control, compliance, money, attention. Often found in religion and politics. He masterfully targets the naive, vulnerable, uneducated or mentally weak.
14. RISK-TAKING/ THRILL-SEEKING; never learns from his past follies and shows repeatedly bad judgment. Poor impulse control is a hallmark.
15. PARANOIA; is suspicious of everything usually for no reason.

15. PARANOIA; is suspicious of everything usually for no reason.
Terrified of exposure (as fraud) and may be dangerous if threatened.
16. IMAGE MAKING; will flaunt his ‘toys’, his children, his wife, his credentials and accomplishments. Admiration, attention, even glances from others; our envy or our fear is his objective. Appears to be the perfect father, husband, friend – to outsiders.
17. EMOTIONAL VACUUM; he deceives us by his remarkable ability to mimic human emotions. We are left numb when we realize that he is completely lacking empathy and genuine emotions.
18. “SAINTLY”; proclaims high moral standing. Accuses others of immorality. This hypocrite lies, cheats, abuses, deceives, controls, and manipulates while portraying himself as having high morals.
19. CALLING-CARD; forewarns his victims. Early in the relationship he may reveal his nature by saying “You need to protect yourself around me” or “Watch out, you never know what I’m up to.” You laugh not realizing what the future holds.
20. PENITENT; he begs “I’ll change, I love you, I’ll go for therapy.” Appears to ‘come clean’ admitting past abuse and asking forgiveness. Then claims we are at fault and need to change too.

THE WETIKO/ARCHONTIC PARASITES HAVE EVEN INFILTRATED THOSE WITH THE KNOWLEDGE!
Knowledge without application is a form of entertainment and breeds contempt!
As I always say, by their words and actions (fruits) we shall know them!
We should not be tearing each other down.
We should not be in competition with each other
We should not be discrediting the work of righteousness!
Separation
Confusion
Diversion
Distraction
Manipulation
Is the work of the WETIKO/ARCHONTIC PARASITE!
It is really important that we know how to protect ourselves from being infected by these mind parasites and psychic vampires!
Otherwise they will take us over and it doesn’t matter how much knowledge you have, they don’t care!
What they care about is lowering your vibration enough for them to possess you!
And it’s evident here what is happening to both of our brothers!
They are both powerful beings with a divine purpose!
Please send these two brothers some love energy, so we can defuse this feud between them!

Some of us are really going through a tough time emotionally and mentally especially.
Social media seems to be keeping a lot of humans sane, while at the same time causing an unhealthy dependency!
We need to be there and here for each other, we are 0NE!
True love knows no colour
True love knows no separation
True love knows no culture
We have lost true love
Those of us who are pure at heart, we have True Love, we have been sharing it even when we needed it!
If we are going to spend most of our time online soothing our mental wounds, we should at least be having LIVE CONVERSATIONS!
Social media is already separating us, while connecting us!
Let’s not loose our human touch. Tones and laughter are still very powerful. We need each other more than we ever have done!
This is not the time to be silent!
This is the time to express what’s really going on inside. It’s time to stop masking and start releasing the pent up trauma which is silent but so violent!
If you feel the way I feel and want to start a LIVE CONVERSATION. let’s break bread and SAT-SANG on ZOOM!
SAT-SANG IS THE GATHERING OF HUMANS WHO SELF INQUIRE ALOUD!
LETS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
Let’s give birth to this idea.....
So will the real humans please stand up and let’s join heARTS and remember our divinity.
WE ARE EARTH ANGELS and we have wings!
Together we have always been stronger!

THE POWER OF SATSANG
The word Satsang itself, is often translated as “truthful association”. Now, if we were to apply this literal translation as a definition, then, one may say that every single individual would have participated in satsang at some point in time in his life. But, what is the role of satsang in our own spiritual growth? Is it merely a medium for stimulating our spiritual receptivity for a fleeting moment of time, or can it be used as a powerful tool for spiritual developmental?
Satsang can provide devotees with an opportunity to ensure than they remain focused on their respective spiritual paths. In fact, efficiently conducted devotional satsangs can generate powerful, inspirational and sanctifying thought vibrations that help to uplift the intellects of the devotees as well as purifying the immediate environment within which they are held.
It thus enables individuals to actively participate in a most effective form of devotion since it incorporates a number of other well recognized forms of devotion.
When we consider the literal translation of satsang, we will realize that it involves remaining in close association with those that are truthful and devoted to YAHWEH.
In other words, it refers to keeping the company of the holy ones like our Gurus and Pandits. Remaining close to individuals who will be able to guide one in the right direction and help to remove the doubts and negativities that may exist in the mind of the aspiring devotee. Those who are fortunate enough to be in frequent contact with such holy individuals have a wonderful opportunity to exploit this potential for spiritual growth that satsang provides.
At the higher level, satsang involves the cultivation of the inner quality of Sattva (truth or purity). This is one of the three modes of Prakriti (nature) – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. While the latter, Rajas and Tamas refer to individuals who predominantly exist in the modes of passion, lust and ignorance – sattva is manifested as knowledge, truth and peacefulness.
Devotees that engage in satsang will slowly develop this sattvic side of their beings; and in this way, will gradually begin to transcend the bonds of ignorance that prevent them from moving towards the divine.
Satsang is therefore, an effective means of communicating with YAHWEH and building spirituality. It can be practiced even when one is alone by remaining focused on thoughts of YAHWEH and the path towards SELF-realization. And, while there are numerous challenges along this path, one can overcome all of them by strengthening this characteristic of sattva. Through the medium of satsang, the individual self can be united with the Highest Self – the true objective of satsang.

“Crowds were the worst. Any little person will tell you that. There’s nothing worse than crowds: getting looked at, getting seen. People making fun of my family. All three of us are little people: my mother, my brother, and me.
My mom raised us on her own. With no help. But she knew the struggle, and she would build us up every time we got bullied. Sometimes I’d even feel like killing myself. But she’d say: ‘You’re special. Your mother loves you. Your brother loves you.’
But my mom was also a thug. She was the muscle in our family. If we complained that people were staring at us, she’d say: ‘Look right back. Talk your shit.’ Whenever I got in trouble for fighting, she’d never get mad. She’d say: ‘You defended yourself. That’s good. Now do it again.’ She encouraged us early to play basketball. First it was my older brother. Then it was me. There was this center in our neighborhood where a dude named Hammer ran a program. He’d make us read a book for thirty minutes—I hated that part, but then we’d play basketball. And that’s how I learned about my size abilities, not disabilities.
If you’re a six or seven footer, and you aren’t perfect, I’ll time your dribble. I’ll steal it the moment it hits the ground. So you’ve got no choice but to dribble low. You gotta come down to me. And I’m already down here. This is my world. This is where I live. The guys in my neighborhood grew to respect me. I was never getting trash talked in the Douglas Projects.
But when I started playing in high school, and we went to other arenas, the crowds could be cruel. My teammates would try to protect me, and motivate me. But there’s not much you can do with three hundred people chanting ‘midget.’ I hated walking out to the court. Any little person will tell you, crowds are the worst. But as soon as I made that first shot, they’d get quiet. Then I’d do it again, and again, and again. Then eventually the crowd would start to get on my side. Cause they’d never seen anything like me. They’d start cheering for me even though I was on the other team. And my mom would be in the stands, talking her shit. Saying: ‘My son is smaller than all of you. And he’s kicking your ass!’”
