Another terror attack was just reported: “At least 15 individuals have been killed and dozens injured following a shooting incident at a Hanukkah celebration in Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia on Sunday evening. Authorities have classified the event as a terror attack, with reports indicating that the two gunmen specifically targeted attendees celebrating the Jewish holiday. Witnesses described a chaotic scene as the gunmen ushered non-celebrants aside before opening fire. Emergency services reported at least 29 injuries, and one of the attackers was shot while the other was apprehended. Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon confirmed the discovery of several improvised explosive devices in a nearby vehicle, prompting the involvement of bomb disposal units. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the attack, emphasizing its targeting of Jewish Australians and asserting that it represents an attack on all Australians. He convened a meeting with national security officials to address the incident. U.S. reactions included a statement from President Donald Trump, who reassured Hanukkah celebrants of their safety, and a condemnation from U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who highlighted the need to combat antisemitism. Videos from the scene captured the panic among beachgoers and the heroic actions of a bystander who intervened to disarm one of the gunmen. This act of bravery was praised by New South Wales Premier Chris Minns, who described the individual as a hero. The shooting occurred against a backdrop of rising antisemitic incidents in Australia, particularly following the onset of the Israel-Gaza conflict in October 2023. The Executive Council of Australian Jewry reported a significant increase in antisemitic attacks, raising alarms within both the Jewish community and broader Australian society.” It was subsequently reported that the shooters were father and son. What were the causes of this event? What is most important for us to know?

Also in the book Thirty Years Among the Dead by Dr. Carl Wickland, the experience of a sensitive young man is shared. This young man had established himself in business with his father when one morning, he rose early and left home. He just up and vanished. The distraught parents reached out to Dr. Wickland for help. Wickland’s team prayed that the boy “should have no rest until he wrote his parents.” The following morning, he wrote to them, saying he was in the Navy and would be gone for several years. Dr. Wickland’s team did more prayer/concentration work, and the spirit of a deceased sailor longing to return to the sea was channeled by Mrs. Wickland. The spirit reported that “lots of people brought me here” to be channeled by Mrs. Wickland. Can Creator share with us why the boy was so vulnerable to this kind of takeover? The sailor spirit was not particularly evil, but was self-centered and very focused on returning to sea. It was said that the boy in the question above was “sensitive to spirit influence.” Aren’t we ALL? To one degree or another? What was it about the boy, and all of us for that matter, that make us “sensitive” to spirit influence versus “not sensitive” or at least “not so sensitive?” What percentage of the human population has had a takeover as this boy experienced? Due to the effective action, from a considerable distance, of the boy’s parents, Dr. Wickland and his team, including his gifted medium wife, the boy was freed from the spirit and eventually reunited with his family. The family was even successful in arranging an early discharge from the Navy—something not at all easy to accomplish. How does this distance release accomplished through prayer show us how the Lightworker Healing Protocol works to accomplish similar outcomes? What can Creator tell us?

Dr. Wickland, being a practicing psychiatrist, was able to use electroshock treatments with his patients. These treatments had the effect of driving spirit attachments out of the victim’s aura, where awaiting “helper” spirits would “assist” this spirit over to Mrs. Wickland’s aura, where they could enter and take temporary control of Mrs. Wickland and therefore speak to Dr. Wickland directly. Wickland would then engage the spirit in direct conversation and attempt to explain to that spirit what had happened to them, and how better to comport themselves and get back on a more progressive spiritual path. He was successful more often than not, but occasionally, truly recalcitrant spirits were simply sent back to “the outer darkness.” Once again, is this a psychokinetic energy contest where the spirit in question is “overpowered” energetically and essentially pushed/forced back aggressively to the “holding place” and away from the victim? Does this all conform to the rules of engagement, or were some of the “helper spirits” taking matters into their own hands in acting like security guards with unruly spirits? When using the Lightworker Healing Protocol, unlike Dr. Wickland, we practitioners are not part of communicating/negotiating with spirit attachments. Do we rather empower the “spirit guides and guardians” to do this with our requests? What happens when the attachment won’t listen and cooperate? Are they sent back to the “holding place?” Is electroshock therapy equally effective against both lost soul human spirits as well as fallen angelic spirit meddlers? Either way, when done without knowledge and understanding, at best, it creates a temporary vacancy, and the attaching spirits simply return once again. What can Creator tell us?

Wikipedia had this to say about The Rosenhan Experiment, conducted by psychologist David L. Rosenhan in the early 1970s, “(The Rosenhan Experiments) investigated the validity of psychiatric diagnoses by examining how mental health professionals identified mental illness. In this controversial study, eight individuals without any psychiatric history feigned auditory hallucinations to gain admission to twelve different mental hospitals across the United States. Despite providing truthful information about their lives and claiming to no longer hear voices, all participants were diagnosed with severe mental disorders, primarily schizophrenia, and remained hospitalized for an average of nineteen days. The study highlighted significant issues within psychiatric institutions, such as the staff’s limited interaction with patients and their tendency to misinterpret normal behavior as symptomatic of mental illness. All but one were released only after agreeing to a mental illness diagnosis and medication, which they flushed down the toilet.” In 1976, a young German woman named Anneliese Michel died after 67 Catholic Exorcisms. The concluded cause of death by the authorities was starvation. Anneliese didn’t think the doctors knew what they were doing, and she knew if she shared too much with them, she would end up in the insane asylum. Her parents and two priests were later convicted of negligent homicide for not turning her over to the state institution, where she would have been force-fed and medicated. What is Creator’s perspective on the “conflict” between the secular and religious responses to obsession, possession, and its symptoms? Were the parents and priests “wrong” in not enlisting the help of secular doctors? What can Creator tell us?

The 67 Catholic Exorcisms said by the two priests involved for Anneliese brought at best temporary relief, but in the end were considered a failure due to her unanticipated and tragic death at just 23 years old. Goodman wrote: “Exorcism is basically designed to help the afflicted person to gain ritual control over the molesting entities … Unruly spirits (also) need to and indeed can be trained. Without ritual intervention, the undoing of such a pattern is extremely difficult, especially so if the alter is evil or, in religious terms, if the possessing entity has demonic powers. … It is the only strategy used cross-culturally against demonic possession, and in all instances where it is allowed to work without interference, it is eminently successful. … The worst situation in the West is the one involving demonic possession. Those afflicted by it need help. Exorcism works, other strategies do not, yet their diagnosis and treatment are determined not by what works but by the prevailing attitudes, the paradigm concerning the nature of reality. The position is so ingrained that arguments that religious experience is accompanied by measurable and recordable physiological changes are totally ignored. Finally, it should be noted that Mary, the mother of Jesus, reportedly told Anneliese in a vision she had months in advance that her ordeal would be over on the day she actually died.” What is the divine perspective on this outcome, and were the exorcisms “successful” according to the divine? What can Creator tell us?
