Many enlightened teachers have spoke of a time in their spiritual journey when darkness descends, when demonic voices fill their heads and various tortures ensue driving them to wander into the wilderness and confront some evil external force be it the devil in Christianity, Myra in Buddhism the Jinn/Devil from the Quran etc. There have been many cases of this in spiritual/religious books such as the Upanishads, the bible the Quran the discourses of the Buddha etc. I would imagine that Auditory hallucinations and visual hallucinations would be the perceived symptoms if st john of the cross visited a psychologist during his sufferings of the dark night of the soul or if Jesus sat at Dr Jones's desk 20 days into the temptations. I would be interested in your thoughts, thanks Paul :).......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... |
