Exorcism or Exhortation?
There may be some resemblance to exorcism in this command or exhortation, but it is different from any known rituals practiced by religious officiants. Traditional exorcism rituals assume there is an outside source (Entity) possessing the body of a human being and thus the cause of ill-being.
However, we have often observed that we created it, thus we are in possession of it, not the other way around! The reason why the showing of a cross works initially so well, is that each entity or P-C knows that it means death for itself and thus shows various signs of resistance.
Exorcists seldom tell the entity where to go, what to do, and where to go to from there. The departing entities do not know where to go and thus return to their original creator with their original state of pain. So, a high patient retention rate is built into these religious procedures.
Most techniques offered, manage and/or manipulate the feeling of Pain only. They either pay attention verbally, via fingers, or via feelings until it quiets down. Yoga practices may release the Pain from its current tissue location but what prevents it from hiding elsewhere?
Certain methods allow you to welcome the feeling, dive into it, communicate with it, and embrace both sides, but was it permanently transformed or did it leave forever?
Another technique suggests that you first feel, then rate the Pain feeling, and then say “I accept myself” and admit the “sin” while tapping on tight tissue spots in the body.
Probably the Pain moved away but where will it show up again? The P-C or Entity has to be or go somewhere!
