Now, back in the 2nd ACC we talked about ghosts. Every once in a while a person under processing will look up and say, "Well, there's my mother and she's been standing there for Lord knows how long," or, "What is this odd person doing in the priestess' robes over there in the corner of the room?"

You know? Much more importantly, many a case - many a case is haunted by demons. And we call it merely a field; it isn't a field, it's demons. It's real honest-to-goodness demons that he's keeping perpetually mocked up because they like illness, they like bad luck, they like misery.

Every once in a while you ask somebody who is ill - if you wanted to go into a searching analysis of this, you would find some new astonishing data. You could go around the hospital and ask somebody, "What happens in your mind's eye (they would understand that) when you get sick?" Well, they'd have to look this over and maybe give you a report in two or three months, but this would be your report: When they get sick something moves in on them. It's quite fascinating. The case that has a black field always gets a tighter field when it gets sick.

Now, this could be interpreted, and was first interpreted by the Arab - which is why I dragged him in by his heels - as illness. Illness was a demonological situation, the evil eye and all this sort of thing. Later on the Christian, having absorbed a great deal of Arab superstition and culture, made this part and parcel of Christianity.

And all during the early first millennia, well that is, all during the early centuries and actually right on up to modern times... They had some discussion on this in Church of England the other day; they were wondering whether or not to take out their laws concerning demon exorcism or not. They still had laws and procedures of demon exorcism in the Church of England, casting out devils and that sort of thing - this has been part and parcel of this enlightened religion called Christianity.

Demonology. The Catholic church to this day casts out demons. A young fellow was able to throw, on an automaticity, rugs and things around in the room and send himself scooting across the floor. Poltergeist. And he had two or three priests move on him to exorcise the demon who was doing this, which I think is quite amusing. That was somewhere around Elizabeth, New Jersey in 1950. The old and the new were in the same area.

Now what is this mechanism? This mechanism of pulling a demon in on you? If you're taught that demons like illness and bad luck and misfortune, then of course, you'll start out mocking up demons who like what's wrong with you. Don't you see? And then eventually what gets wrong with you? Demons. Get the idea? So you have this cycle being run.
