I don't think so. I believe that what Christians think is that demons exist. I have faced them hundreds of times. My belief is that, and you must realize how hard it is for spirits to climb uphill to reach us through the door, that they must grasp at our most sensitive emotions to reach us. This emotion is fear. It is our most vulnerable point, and thus the most easily grasped from the other side of the door. I say that these "demons" are simply spirits misunderstood by the unitiated, grasping at the nearest threads of our soul that they can from the other side of the door. I do believe that many of their wide-spread beliefs hold weight. I often, especially recently, smell sulfur and feel cold drafts (even though my house is at a constant 70f temp). I don't fear them. They pull on the dangling hairs of our deepest fears because it's their way of reaching out. We know not to fear, but may not know why. This is why. I listen to them and understand that it is through images with which they can communicate. I have no fear, and assume that, although I am new here, none of you do either. I don't believe there is spite or malicious intent. However - this is exactly what Christians say is the "Devil" luring us in by lies. Give me your opinions. -Varg

Okay, what does it mean to me? Every culture has Shamans - Africa, South America, Native America, Rasputin was a Shaman, Odin, even Jesus was a Shaman. I honestly haven't read anything here and I'll tell you why. We experience the edge of the door, or beyond the door to that other place. I call it the Umbra. I know the use of drugs is common, but I've used them almost to the edge of psychosis. I stopped some time ago with that. Nowadays I just go days and nights with no food or sleep of my own cogniscience. Trust me in that I don't want me to. The spirits draw me there. I haven't read anything here because this is who I am for over 20 years and I have hundreds of books on. I really appreciate your answer. I posted here because I was hoping to find some people I could talk to, you know I've been drowned, stabbed, and drugged multiple times, and then taken certain drugs myself as I said, to the edge of psychosis to reach this side of that door, as well as inducing lucid dreams and et cetera. I have not read your forum, no. I thought this was a place where I could post and not sound crazy. It's just that I've spent half my life looking into the other side and was looking for .... I actually don't know..... something. Thank you for your reply ma'am- -Varg

,,,as a postscript there is a spirit in my house with me, but at towards me she is entirely benevolent. She is my "guard dog" if you will. She will injure those, and I've seen it, who aim to bring harm into my household. I find it very comforting to be honest. Things like this are things that I cannot tell to anyone, and so I hope it's safe, understood, and able to speak about here. -Varg

I am Asatru, and a practicing Shaman for over 20 years. That does entail several NDE's, experiences which should send me to the hospital (and have) if I tell the wrong people certain things. That is because they haven't spent the time I have on the bleeding edge between this world and the Umbra (my name for it), and they don't understand. Hello all, I'm Varg, and I came here hoping find community with people who do understand what I'm talking about. I've had a particularly odd past week. And that's saying a lot for a Shaman of as long as I've practiced. I would love to talk with someone who is real, and that's why I cam here, and can understand what I'm saying. I would love a reply from someone, even someone new to the practice, from whatever faith - we're all in the same business - who won't commit me to the hospital. I say that because I once mentioned a dream I had to my sister and she dragged me there. Any Shaman would know what I mean. I need a place where I can speak with like-minded folk. So again, hello, I am Varg. This is the first time I'm reaching out to others who live as I do, and I have had a very crazy last week which I'm still trying to make sense of. We can discuss that later. Yes, I am fine. you can even see my YouTube channel and hear and see that I'm a normal functioning part of society here; https://www.youtube.com/darkdally I live and work from home. What the public doesn't know is my lifelong practice which has almost killed me multiple times, but here I am and I know very well how to reach the other side. I hope this is a place for people like myself and not ... idk. Thank you -Varg
