A cycle of Behavioural conditioning and emotional manipulation by gurus or spiritual figures.
As our world evolves more into multi dimensional existence.. we come across forces and energies we are not familiar with yet. Within this gap of ignorance.. many forms of abuse take place by knowing or ignorant people. Spiritual abusers. At some of their lives, 1 out every 5 people, would hv come across such a character in the form of gurus and spiritual figures.
So these days it is advisable to protect ourselves not only against physical dangers but spiritual as well. And the best protection against spiritual abuse is knowledge and awareness.
Spiritual abuse is a form of psychological, emotional, and spiritual rape: an attempt to take control of a person's mind, will, and emotions through the use of deception and force. Sometimes, the abuser acts knowingly to bring about such harm; other times, the abuser is simply either spiritually immature (and therefore ignorant of the harm they are doing) or unknowingly influenced by the forceful entities of higher realm (they themselves are spiritually deceived). In either case, however, one point is certain: spiritual abuse is driven by a love of self manifesting in a desire to manipulate and control others for some form of personal gain (or perverse sense of personal pleasure). The abuser may profit emotionally, fulfill a mental need to dominate, prosper financially, gain physical control over the victim, or simply enjoy controlling others through the sheer force of their personal will.
Typically, it involves the use of condemnation and disapproval by the perpetrator and a sense of obligation, guilt, and a hunger for approval in the victim. The abuser attempts to take by force control of an individual's will through a series of manipulative emotional and psychological methods that are nothing more than witchcraft practiced in white robes. Abusers typically cannot identify with the pain of their victims because they do not view them as people, but merely as objects which they wish to possess and control. Spiritual abuse is a form of rape, specifically because the victim is objectified and used like a tool as a means of providing the abuser satisfaction and pleasure. (As mentioned previously, the abuser actually gains a perverse sense of pleasure from cruelly treating his or her victims like objects.)
Of course, victims are often repeatedly violated because they cannot conceive that the person who is abusing them could possibly be anything other than the good person he or she pretends to be. It is the most child-like (not childish), and therefore, often the most mature who are more easily deceived: for they are often committed to doing what is right at any cost, a fact which can blind them to the reality of the abuser's destructive intent. Abusers, by nature, are ego-centric individuals who think only of themselves. One of the most damaging and difficult realities which the victim of spiritual abuse must acknowledge is that, not only is the abuser incapable of feeling his victim's pain, he or she is typically incapable of remorse. Therfore, the healing closure of reconciliation is not possible, and the burden for personal accountability and forgiveness is left wholly to the victim.
Abusers often initiate relationships as a friendly, supportive confidant. Later, the abuser temporarily withdraws his or her support on the basis of some false spiritual claim by conveying a strong sense of disapproval toward the victim. This is the abuser's first attempt to hold the victim hostage to his will and gain control of the relationship.
The nature of the abuser is to create a cycle of abuse and comfort, of torment and dependency, and of rejection and affirmation between themselves and their victims. Of course, their comfort is only a pretense to establish a false foundation of relationship which they can then appeal to in order to emotionally manipulate their victims into developing an unhealthy tolerance for their sporadic scourgings. They must be kind to their victims when they are not savaging them for they must be both a sadistic tormentor and a well of human compassion if they are to be able to create in their victims a sense of dependency upon their abusers. The final effect over time, of course, is that the wills of their victims are weakened to the point that they look to their abuser for every emotional and spiritual provision. The ultimate end of the abuser's witchcraft is a form of mind control over their victims based upon behavioral conditioning and emotional manipulation.
The victim's entire sense of personal value becomes based upon the affirmations of their abuser. Their dependency, obviously, has a most significant drawback: victims become willing to suffer any abuse without protest in order to return to the safety, comfort, and protection of their abuser's 'nice' personality. Of course, the nice side of an abuser is nothing but a false image created to lure unsuspecting, trusting victims into psychological and emotional bondage. Fortunately, some resist the trap. Others fall into it due to a lack of knowledge and discernment. All who escape, however, have one thing in common: they refuse to worship their abusers. It is never an easy escape.
