HITCHHIKERS (a sort of partial entity possession) - and how to handle them

[Bill Ryan]

-------

There exists a potential human situation which, when once alerted to it, many reading this may recognize in others... or even in themselves. It goes under a number of names, but here I want to call this the phenomenon of Hitchhikers.

A hitchhiker is a spirit who was quite a short time ago in a human body, but whose body has died and who therefore decided to look for a new 'home'. They've not gone on to inhabit a new baby body, as is normal. Instead, they've chosen to find what could be considered an easier solution to their problem: rather than taking on a new body for themselves, they jump into an existing body which is already 'occupied'. It's like having an unwanted guest in your house... or an unwanted hitchhiker in your car.

This is slightly different from 'possession' -- which is a related phenomenon, to be discussed separately. When a body is 'possessed', another being comes into the body - and takes over completely. The original 'owner' is completely dispossessed. That's a little like someone jumping into your car, holding you up at gunpoint, and taking over the wheel while you're tied up in the trunk. That's NOT what we're talking about here.

(It's also different from a 'walk-in' -- where there is NOT the problem of the undesirable conflict of two beings both considering that they should be the one that's in charge of the body. With a walk-in, the original 'owner of the car' simply hands it over to another being by mutual agreement.)

So, in contrast, here's what a hitchhiker is. A hitchhiker gets in the car without your consent, sits in the back seat, or the passenger seat, while you're still at the wheel -- and just interferes, talks a lot, and generally gets in the way. They may influence how you're driving, or where you're going. Every now and then they may take over the wheel, but as a rule they're simply a dominant, interfering influence. (There's a wonderful Jim Carrey comedy -- Me, Myself and Irene -- which caricatures this brilliantly.)

What this looks like from an outside standpoint (e.g. from that of a loved one, family member, or friend) is that one's personality changes. Sometimes it's a permanent change, and sometimes it 'toggles' back and forth between two personalities which are evidently rather different.

It's important to understand that, from the 'inside', the person affected, and who is suffering, may not be aware of this at all.

The purpose of this article is to offer guidelines and protocols to those wishing to help someone affected by this phenomenon. (Exceptionally, the affected person themselves may be well aware of what's happened to them... and so of course this article may be of great benefit to them as well.)

The following article was written specially for Avalon by a good friend, Elrisse, who is an expert in this and other related fields. If you'd like to get in touch with her, her e-mail address is SpiritualFreedom8@yahoo.com.

Hi Bill,

Thank your good friend for the best starting point of cleaning the attic and basement from the cobwebs of the not-so-dead living "dudes."

[Cristian]

Interesting and important thread ! Thank you Bill.

[donk]

I can't even tell you how much I needed this...thanks so much!

[Ilie Pandia]

There is something about this material that I do not understand properly.

It is said in the PDF that you cannot force them away and say: "Get the heck out of my space!". This implies that the uninvited guest is somehow more powerful than I am. He can forcefully come into my house uninvited but I am not able to kick him out. Why has the hitchhiker more power that I do in this case?

Another similar thing are the inalienable rights at the end of the article. The very existence of hitchhiker spirits (or possessions for that matter) are in direct violation of those rights. So whomever is supposed to enforce those rights is not doing a very good job.

It seems to me, that in the end, there must be some kind of agreement at some level to make the hitchhiker experience possible. At some level you've opened yourself up to that experience. It's the only way I can look at this and not violate the 3 rights. But this also means that you can make a new agreement and a new choice and any time. All you have to do is change your mind...

If my conclusion is not correct, this implies that there are very powerful "spirits" out there who can enforce their own will upon my body and completely suppress "my spirit" and I cannot do anything about it but wait in quiet desperation for someone more powerful than the evil invader to drive them out.

Instead of in terms of "power," think of it as a mosquito buzzing by your ears at night... have you ever been successful at wishing the hungry bugger away?

... there must be some kind of agreement at some level to make the hitchhiker experience possible. At some level you've opened yourself up to that experience. It's the only way I can look at this and not violate the 3 rights.

That's the crux of the matter (which 9eagle9 touch upon in some of her posts and which is the whole of the methodology used by Steve Richards). The problem is that the hitchhiker is not aware of these rights and doesn't understand the laws that govern entering into someone else's game.

[Tangri]

With my all respect Bill, I am strongly disagree about this hypothesis.

Even it does not give a plea- bargain opportunity as a
## traumatized , weak person can be prone these phenomena.

This idea is going to create fear and discouragement for visiting sick relatives(hospital visits) or paying last respect to loved ones(funerals).

With this dream, hypothesis, delirium, I should accept that all emergency respond workers,ER , surgical room, workers(nurse, technician, anesthetization team),all doctors have potential hitchhikers target and I supposed to meet at least (if we think as a %1 ) 100 hitchhiked person in my life. If I include my self with mouth to mouth CPRs , I must have been doomed.
I have to use some humor on this with below pasted writing
I think that anyone who takes that seriously is so disconnected with reality that they maybe shouldn't be on this Forum.

I think it means they may not possess the necessary discernment to add meaningful discussion to more complex issues where the truth is in question.

It is a kind of agreement. If you think about people that are sad for months/years about losing a loved one, they open themselves to this kind of stuff. So, at some level , by not letting go, they do agree even if they dont realize.
Also spirits of dead people may be confused and really know nothing about any rules.

I think is more like , you can do whatever you want, dead or alive. The rules are not enforced if nobody calls for that.

Same goes with possession, is not that a demonic entity is stronger then you, they are just more aware of how the game is played, and they have more tricks.

However you can always cry to the Universe, if you feel something unjust is happening to you. You can always ask for the rules to be enforced...and they always are.

In support of

"Hospitals and Collecting Hitchhikers
Often, as a slight diversion here, the reason for them hanging on is that perhaps they died under
the influence of a massive amount of drugs or something of that nature and they’re just too
zonked out to actually even realize that they just latched on to the first person who walked past.
It's somewhat dangerous to go into hospitals for this reason because they tend to have a kind of a
"taxi rank" or "bus stop" full of beings waiting to latch onto somebody and get the heck out of
the front door. They don’t seem to understand that they can decide to be somewhere else, which
is actually true in the spirit world. Graveyards are somewhat similar to hospitals, but usually
fewer potential hitchhikers than a hospital" (1)

Many subtle elements and sticky presences play in hospitals, anecdotal experiences from observations would suggest hitchhikers. All supports a need to be expansive and mindful (Generally though strong constructive interventionists work in Hospitals and just need to be called upon)

Syncronizing again Bill. I shared this on the thread you created about Carol Clark. My friend who was killed in a hit and run hitchhiked a ride with me for a few years. thread here. https://projectavalon.net/forum4/newr...treply&t=32136

This is a true story.

My close friend Gordon of many years, we met when i was 15yrs old, we shared a flat when we both left our parents, He was gifted in some ways, he knew he would die before he reached 30yrs. He married and i was his best man they had 3 children.
At the age of 28yrs old he went out on a works night out, it was a Friday, he cycled everywhere as he did this evening. next day his wife phoned me to say he did not return home, which was very unlike him. I drove to meet his wife and we went looking for him, she knew roughly where the house was where the end of night party was being held. We found the house but was told he left around 2am to cycle home. I walked down the country road that he would have cycled to look around. nothing.

We phoned the police and hospitals. Nothing. It was not until Monday morning that the police came to say Gordon had been killed in a hit and run on a quiet road as he cycled home early Sat morning. The same road that i had walked looking for him. How the police did not connect the body they had and his wives inquiry we never found out.

Ok we fast forward a few years around 4 yrs, and i find that his wife is attracted to me and i to her. We have an affair for a little while. But something was not right so i end it.

Fast forward another 15yrs. 1997 now. I am working as a carpenter in this alternative healing lodge in the highlands. This day the owners asked me not to work making noise and drive to the airport to pick up a group of Germans who have hired the lodge to have a conference on Aura Healing. A great Aura Healer (i cannot remember his name ) was leading the conference. As we were driving back from the airport he asked me if i minded being their Guinea Pig. Sure i said.

After them settling in we began the conference. I stood in the middle and he was walking around me feeling my Aura, he said my aura extended way out in front of me. but my back aura had a presence that was squashing it and did not extend, he began tuning in. He did not know me from Adam. Then he says. Did you have a close friend who died suddenly at a young age. Well i have had more than one i said. You went looking for this man. He was killed on his bike. You were with his wife at the time. Yes i said and told him what happened. He said when you were looking for him he jumped into your Aura. You were the light that attracted him. He has been with you for many years. He knew he could be closer to his wife through you. Wow i was gobsmacked and he performed a ceremony to free him from me. after he completed this i felt lighter and my aura he said was extended.

He then went on to impress me and everyone else with his gifts over the weekend.

I thought i would share this after reading some comments here,
Peace

[DeDukshyn]

I didn't read all the text yet, but this concept completely reminds me of a book I read once (which I can't recall right now), the author claims that he was taken out of body and "shown" a bunch of things, many ethereal.

One of these "showings" was when he was taken into a bar that was full of drunken sailors, but he could also see many spirits in the bar as well. As some of them men got more and more drunk, he watched one of these "souls" slip into one of the completely inebriated sailor's body. (the "showings" of certain events where just to show him a greater perspective of things)

I'll take a dig through the book stand and see if I can get the name of the book.

Good article. Thanks, Bill, always appreciate it when you speak directly on these kinds of topics.

This article speaks directly to the necessity of cultivating silence. Meditation. Knowing Self.

Being able to step behind the discursive process and watch the flow of thoughts. If you are able to do that, you can tell which thoughts are yours and which aren't. Sometimes it's very weird to do so and all of a sudden to "hear" a thought that is totally out of nowhere, that has absolutely nothing to do with you or your thought processes at that moment. The thought can even be in another voice, or about something you have no familiarity with, it just appears in your mind.

I'm not sure if I've ever been taken over by a hitchhiker but I've most certainly experienced what I've described above. I've also been subjected to strong emotions and urges that were inappropriate in the moment. Do those urges come from some sort of empathic resonance with someone in the immediate environment or are they coming from hitchhikers? It could be either, depending upon the context and the innate realized ability of the individual so subjected.

In this instance, Casteneda comes to mind and Don Juan's prescription on how to get rid of the Flyers/Foreign Installation.

Silence the inner voice. Learn mind control. By so doing, you create a space of emptiness and you do not give the entities, whatever they are and wherever they came from, the satisfaction and fulfillment of you acting upon the thoughts that they inject into your biology. If you are not fulfilling their desires and urges, then they have no reason to stay with you, they cannot stay with you if they are conscious entities still connected to the world and seeking worldly fulfillment through you, because they have no bodies or physical sensations.

[Tarka the Duck]

I find this concept disturbing: I wonder what the benefits of adhering to such a belief are? The negative effects are all too clear, and, worryingly, seem to be on the rise. Apologies if the OP was written as a bit of fun, and I am taking this too seriously but some terrible things have been done in connection to a belief in a spirits entering living beings.

My concern is for children. In some cultures, children who are slightly different in some way - or who simply exhibit behaviour that is deemed to be unacceptable, such as sleepwalking or bed wetting - become victims of the most horrendous procedures in the name of removing the spirit that has entered them. According to the definition given in the OP, these children would have been judged to have had a "Hitchhiker": a spirit that does not possess, but alters behaviour or character in some way.

Elaborate rituals, talisman, spells, sacrifices, torture and murder are all carried out in the name of exorcising these spirits.

These are a some of the more high profile cases in the UK over the past 12 years. How many more of these are there out there, throughout the world?

• Victoria Climbie (2000) a pastor declared she was possessed, prayer and fasting without food and water. She was tortured and murder by her great aunt.
• In 2001 the torso of Adam found in the river Thames. He was a victim of a ritual killing.
• In 2004, three-month-old Samira Ullah was murdered by her father because he
was convinced she had been entered by an evil spirit.
• In 2005 Child B aged 10 beaten, cut with a knife, whipped, starved, kicked, chillies rubbed in her eyes, bound and placed in a bag and threatened with drowning
• In 2008 Khyra Ishaq was starved to death by her mother and mother’s partner who believed she was possessed by a spirit.
• Dec 2010 – Kriety Bamu, 15 year old boy, drowned in a bath by his sister and her boyfriend, who believe he was possessed. He had more than 100 injuries in his body.
Dec 2010- religious ritual believed to be behind death of 4yr girl who was found with her heart cut out and other organs strewn round

I understand that the lady who wrote this piece quote in the OP is not condoning or encouraging any such behaviour, but I can't help but ask myself whether it is a little irresponsible to promote such ideas in the light of actions commited by some in the name of "spirit removal". I tend to think we are in danger if "glamourising" the idea of spirits inhabitants.

In most major religious and cultural traditions worldwide, there is the idea of spirit "possession" and the need for some form of exorcism. The one thing all these different traditions have in common is the need for intervention by a third party. Someone who offers "deliverance". A healer.

There is always a price to pay.

All right dear kanata resident, here is some reality from Steve Richards' experience with that sector of the subject:
***************************************************************

THIS CAN BE CHANGED—THEY ARE STUCK IN A DIMENSION OF TIME!!!.

Pain is trapped energy. Forget about pain management, take out the trapped energy or trauma of the spirit and the energy is once more free to leave and so is the pain. At times pain may not even belong to you, you may have been responsible for the death of another or taken pity on another that has died and that gave that Spirit the rights under LORE to enter your body and you may be experiencing its pain through you, until that Spirit is brought up and time enfolded back to its trauma and changed and then released, only then will the pain cease.

How many thousands must continue suffering because of the ego and ignorance of some of the mental health advisors in this and other countries?

Let's not forget about the hundreds of thousands of soldiers that are suffering mental torment due to reciprocal exchange of energy, as they take the spirits of the enemy back home with them, within their bodies. As spirits are pure energy and are ten times more powerful than a physical being, therefore they can make the soldier destroy himself in a number of ways, that is why the suicide rate is so high with the soldiers. These men can be cleared and by training soldiers in ancient lore, this could be prevented. I have cleared many ex Viet Vets and had spirits of vietcong talking out of their bodies, These spirits had a right to take over the vehicle [Body] of he who destroys its vehicle [body]under LORE.

We have heard that in Queensland alone there are over 275 police officers on trauma leave, My students and myself, have had police officers that have attended a number of suicides, and on feeling emotional and sad at the scene, that was enough to allow the spirits of the deceased to enter as they lowered their defenses--they can be helped!

There are Police officers, ambulance officers, rescue officers, soldiers, hospital staff and more that have dropped their defenses at the scene of a death allowing spirits to enter their field as many spirits are earth bound due to their sudden death and at times need assistance to be moved on, these persons now can take on the effect of the invading spirit prior to its death--They can be helped!

The tsunami in Indonesia will have thousands of earth-bound spirits stuck in their trauma. In some parts of Thailand and Indonesia they refuse to go out at night because of the spirits that are still, wandering looking for their loved ones. A huge amount of rescue workers would have picked up spirits that didn't want to remain over there and brought them back in their bodies, these people will need to be defused of their own trauma and cleared--They can be helped!

We have had many spirits that have come in to people at road accidents, during an operation in hospitals, At a major trauma, people not wanting their loved ones to leave can entrap them into their energy field--They can be helped!
***********************************************************************

But, as most people, one can live generations after generations with their heads buried in some sand or mud... and not bother with that other side of reality.

[Hervé]

Thinking of it, and with respect to other threads dealing with abductions and the lack of emotions, empathy or love from the part of the abductors... there may be a "survival instinct" not to; unless the lizzies and consorts want to be flooded with human hitchhikers...


Running with that same ball... and wondering if that's not a part of the reasons for police brutality?

[Daughter of Time]

I've had two instances of hichhikers latched on to me. I may have had more, but two of them were painfully clear.

The most disruptive one started with a dream of a small bird with a safety pin through its legs. The poor bird died a slow and excruciating death. More dreams of more beautiful, tortured birds followed. I've had nightmares throughout my life, but this was new. Then things happened in my waking life which also instilled terror - psychic terror - and I couldn't understand why this was happening. I told myself, I'm going through a spiritual crisis. I lost a work contract because the nature of it, which would have been normal under different circumstances, now instillied terror in me. My home felt dark and I became afraid to go out in the dark. I felt like a dark presence following me around. After about a month of feeling I was losing my mind, I visited a medium. I told her I was troubled, no details. She immediately picked up a couple that had recently passed away. They were into voodoo and had decided they'd like to occupy my home and my mind. That was the answer! I talked to them, peacefully, forgivingly, saying I didn't judge them for what they did because I knew nothing about their backgrounds nor what lead them to do what they did. But I demanded that they leave my home and find a more suitable place because their vibrations and mine did not, in the least, resonate. I bid them farewell and much spiritual growth. They immediately left. The darkness dissipated. The dreams of tortured birds stopped. I was once again able to go out at night. I returned to my normal state.

One night I woke up after a couple of hours of sleep. There was a man next to me. It felt natural until I regained full consciousness. Then it dawned on me that I'd gone to bed alone! I jumped out of bed, terrified, paced the floor, afraid to go back to bed, but I had to get some sleep because I had an important work assignment the next morning. I thought maybe it was a dream. Upon returning to bed I felt chilled to the bone, but surrounded by a loving light. My body became paralized but I was astrally awake and aware. I saw the man, clearly. I could describe every detail of what had been his physical body. He embraced me and made love to me. The love making was pleasant. He was a most considerate lover. Immediately afterwards, he commanded me to sleep and I slept. I woke up at the sound of the alarm. He was next to me and bid me a good day. Tremblingly I went about getting ready for work and got through my day. When time came to go home, I was terrified. I opened the door and he was waiting for me, apologetically that he was unable to prepare dinner. I told him to leave. He wouldn't. He explained that he'd been shot therefore left his body unwillingly and unpreparedly. He immediately went looking for female companionship - a woman whose body he found pleasing and who was sleeping alone. He found me! He wanted to live with me. He told me he would not interfere with my daily duties. He simply wanted to be there, in my home, and be my lover. I could not convince him to go. So I called upon all the males I'd known in my life who had passed, who were in contact with me, and who cared for me. I asked them to help me remove this man from my presence. As male vibrations to another male vibration, they might be able to make him understand. I explained to the man that if he were in a body, he'd probably make a good companion, but I was not, under any circumstances, willing to entertain him any longer and I'd become resentful and angry if he didn't leave. So I lovingly told him to go with my friends who were called specifically to guide him. He said he wished he'd known me when he was live. I visually saw him lift off and go out through the ceiling, and I felt much love from him. He never came back.

These experiences are mild compared to an experience someone I know went through. I wrote about that man in the Horus-Ra thread - Page 65, post #1299.

I think that when walking through a hospital, if one is consciously aware of the possiblity of picking up an unwanted guest, one can protect oneself. Just imagining a cloak of golden light around one's being should be enough to deter any such attachments. I've been told these discarnate beings will stay away from someone who is aware of the potential attachment and they cannot attach if the energy field of the living being emanates beyond the energy field of the average living being. There should be no reason to refrain from visiting loved ones in a hospital. One merely has to be aware and awake and mentally express one's autonomy.

[lookbeyond]

Hello, Thanks Bill, i recently came across information in a similar vein on another thread (24 Elders ) and would be interested to hear others opinions and experiences re this, its a book by Kyle Griffiths -War in Heaven.
As a general summary it is a competition between what is called The Invisible College and a movement known as Theocracy,this post may have gone onto Horus-Ra and pls move if more appropriate for there, either way i would appreciate feedback as if this is real/true/now then despite being frightening is relevant for all.

OK dear Torontorian mate.

Did you ever hear word of PTSD?.

PTSD can occur at any age. It can follow a natural disaster such as a flood or fire, or events such as:

Assault

Domestic abuse

Prison stay

Rape

Terrorism

War

If we start to blame lost souls for causing PTSD or other phenomens , The real reason of the above affects can say that " Yes we did it but it wasn't me it was some bad boy soul,"

He can forcefully come into my house uninvited but I am not able to kick him out. Why has the hitchhiker more power that I do in this case?

I don't think it is forceful...I think it is stealthy. Awareness is the key (as stated in the material).

I do not believe it is a matter of more or less power, I think both sides of the "agreement" have a disconnect, an unawareness of the complete picture of what is happening.

Not knowing what is going on is scary to most. How do you know the hitchhikers aren't as confused as the "victims"?

In Steve Richards' experience, too many "PTSDs" are due to these intentional or accidental "Hitchhikers."
