Demons: What is a Demon?

		Demons Back to G host Information


		Welcome to our demons page. What are demons? Throughout history, people have believed in demons, looking at a demon as something to be feared. We see demons a little differently. Explore our demon info and read the origin of demons.


"Demon" is originally a Greek term which meant a wise, guardian spirit. Today, in religion and parapsychology, "demons" have evolved into meaning entities which appear to have malicious intent, and are possibly of a non-human origin; differentiated from a spirit which proceeded from a once-living person (a ghost). This incorrect understanding has come through religion over the past 2000 years.

			Some believe that demons are of non-human origin, or that the human psyche generates such a negativity that a person's soul can somehow degenerate into a form of that which we name a "demon." At Angels & Ghosts, some of us believe that "thought forms" can be believed by a human being and allowed to create one's own reality. Call it our power to create. Some may consider the entertaining of negative thoughts as demon possession. One might also contend that these fallen thoughts are the same as fallen angels (angels representing a higher, more pure thought form, or truth). This should not come as shocking, for the mind is powerful; and all that exists (whether in the physical or spiritual), is really comprised of thought in the great mind that is spirit - God. Read Demons & Thoughts If one takes the idea of negative thoughts further by recognizing that what a person believes is what he


becomes, then a demon could be a negative person - especially a negative, disembodied person...a ghost. Ghosts are trapped in darkness, as they are people who have not moved on in life unto light, peace and truth after the death of their physical body. They remain earthbound for various reasons; some good and some not so good. The negativity surrounding some ghosts and their intentions often confuses or tricks people into believing they are demons. But when one reads about Jesus casting out devils, it will become apparent, after studying the original words translated as devil and demon, that he was in fact casting out disembodied people who had chosen to inhabit another's body. (See Ghost Possession) Many believe that opportunities for a demon to enter our world to wreak havoc, must be limited. They cite evidence in support of the notion, believing that it must be invited into one's person. Once the demon has an "in," it will feed upon the energies expelled by negative emotions such as anxiety, fear and anger, especially those directed at itself. However, we believe we have a better understanding of what a demon is, than most paranormal investigators or even religious leaders.
