| Posted: 26 Feb 2011 02:04 PM PST  A dybbuk (pronounced "dih-buk") is the term for a wandering soul that attaches itself to a living person and controls that person's behavior to accomplish a task. The word "dybbuk" is the Hebrew word for "cleaving" or "clinging," and having a dybbuk is not always a bad thing for the human host...though, in most instances this is not the case. In the Roman Catholic view, a person can succumb to a demon or devil that takes over their body, and the only cure is an exorcism to drive the demon out. In the Jewish faith there is no belief in demonic possession though there can be a possession of a living person by the soul of one who has left the body, but not the world. This soul is seeking a body to possess in order to take care of unfinished business. In the Old Testament of the Bible, a bad spirit is described as attaching itself to King Saul, the first chieftain of the ancient tribes of Israel. Later, the prophet Elijah is possessed by the spirit of a dead man in an attempt to persuade the prophet into maneuvering the King into a war. According to ancient Hebrew tradition, demons are beings not much different than humans but were created in the twilight of creation after the humans and right before the end of creation. They are neither of our world, nor of the other world, but a part of both. The concept of the transmigration of souls developed and found serious followers during the Dark Ages, and by the 12th century it became an established part of the Kabbalah. The 16th century schools of mysticism embraced it. When Hasidism developed, the belief took final hold. The first form is the Gilgul, which is the Hebrew word for 'rolling,' but means, in this context, the transmigration of the soul. Generally, it is represented as a natural sequence in the life of the soul and simply enters the body at birth, just as the infant is about to leave the mother's body, and prepares to live whatever normal life span has been allotted to it. The second form of transmigration is the Dybbuk, a disembodied spirit possessing a living body that belongs to another soul. The earliest description was that they may be nonhuman demons...later it was assumed they were the spirits of persons who have died. The dybbuk may be the soul of a sinner, who wishes to escape the just punishment given to it by the 'angels of the grave' who seek to beat them, or to avoid another form of soul punishment...which is wandering the earth. A dybbuk may seek revenge for some evil that was done to it while it lived. The dybbuk may be lost and enter a body simply in order to find a rabbi who would be able send it on it's way. The living host may or may not know that a dybbuk is occupying their body. There may be torment towards the host but this depends on the intent of the possessing soul. The third form is the Ibbur. The Hebrew translation of the word means 'impregnation.' Ibbur is the most positive form of possession, and probably the most complicated. It happens when a righteous soul decides to occupy a living person's body for a time, and joins, or spiritually 'impregnates' the existing soul. Ibbur is always temporary, and the living person may or may not know that it has taken place. Many times the living person has given consent for the Ibbur since it is always benevolent. The departed soul seeks to complete an important task, to fulfill a promise, or to perform a Mitzva (a religious duty) that can only be accomplished in the flesh. If the dybbuk is able to encounter a rabbi while possessing a living host, then an exorcism ritual can be performed. The Jewish exorcism ritual is performed by a rabbi who has mastered practical Kabbalah. The point of the exorcism is to heal the person being possessed and the spirit doing the possessing. This is a stark contrast to the Roman Catholic exorcism that is intended to drive away the offending spirit or demon. The intent is to heal the soul that's possessing and heal the person. The ceremony is done on behalf of both. In some cases, there is a positive aspect to a dybbuk. On occassion a spirit will seek out a person in a time of need to help. This second type of possession is called 'sod ha'ibbur,' which is Hebrew for 'mystery impregnation.' This is a good possession simply because this is a spirit guide. The spirit of someone who has struggled and overcome what you have struggled with and can't overcome will be lent to you from the spirit world to possess and stimulate you, and help you overcome misfortune and what it has been able to in its lifetime. When it's tasks are done and you've managed to achieve what you need in your life, it leaves you. Some people reach high pinnacles of achievement and they may fall into deep depression. This can be explained as the loss of that spirit. There's a sense of loss, and it's misinterpreted as depression. If the person eventually realizes that, they can be thankful that they had a spirit guide to help them. They need to continue to lift up their own spirit for the remainder of their life. The concept of dybbuk recognizes that our physical world and the spiritual world can intertwine for both positive and negative reasons. If those intersecting reasons are negative, there is a healing process to mend the collision so both the possessor and the possessed can move on. NOTE: There have also been times when a dybbuk can haunt or infest an inanimate object, for example the Dibbuk Box, a supposed haunted wine box that has brought terror and regret to several owners over the years...Lon Sources: www.ghostvillage.com www.metro.co.uk www.britannica.com www.myjewishlearning.com www.mythencyclopedia.com learnkabbalah.com  |
| Fortean / Alternative News: Recent UFO / Alien Disclosure Claims Posted: 26 Feb 2011 11:58 AM PST   dailymail - He is on an advisory body to the Queen, works as an environmental campaigner and is credited with integrating Canada's armed forces. But aside from all this, the ex-Canadian defence minister says UFOs are real, aliens have visited Earth and the U.S. government is covering up information about them. Paul Hellyer says he would probably get fired for his views if he was still Canada's Minister of National Defense today, but is adamant he has seen UFOs himself. The 87-year-old, who is the longest-serving member of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada, said he never discussed his views with top officials when he was in office. 'This is the kind of thing that sometimes they don't tell politicians about,' he said. 'I have no doubt that there were probably people in my employ who would have been more knowledgeable than I was at the time.' 'I got periodic reports on sightings and I looked at them very casually. It was decided that about 80 per cent of them were natural phenomena of one sort or another and the other 20 per cent roughly were unexplained and therefore unidentified.' Mr Hellyer is presenting his views on UFOs this week at the International UFO Congress in Scottsdale, Arizona, and says he is 'convinced' of their existence. 'We lived too long in a sense of isolation, thinking that Earth was the centre of the cosmos, that we were the only species and, therefore, probably the most advanced.' 'And when we come to the realisation that we're not any of those things, then I think we should be aware of it (and) learn to live with it,' he told AOL News. Mr Hellyer claims to have seen a UFO with his wife when spending last Thanksgiving near Toronto, and they stared at the sky for 20 minutes watching it moving. He told AOL: 'By process of elimination, we determined it wasn't a star or satellite and it wasn't the space station, so there was really no explanation for it other than it was, in fact, a UFO. It looked like a star, but it manoeuvred in a way that stars don't.' He believes the U.S. has developed new forms of energy at secret 'black operation' units using alien technology and that a 'shadow government' is behind this activity. Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences research group, has described Mr Hellyer's theory as an 'important contribution' to literature. 'His experience in government, his interest in exo-politics and the issues of sustainability of civilization are significant areas of current discourse,' he said. Retired Army Colonel John Alexander, also speaking at this week's conference, believes UFOs are real but says there has never been a cover-up. Mr Hellyer added: 'People keep talking about transparency and still not telling the truth, and this applies in various other areas as well as UFOs. 'It's just about time that we started getting open with each other and trying to get along and live together.' He said he would 'probably be open-mouthed about it' and 'might get fired for it' if he talked about his opinions in office today. He said in 2005 that the U.S. military was preparing weapons to use against aliens, and they 'could get us into an intergalactic war without us ever having any warning'. He said two years later that governments should be using alternatives to fossil fuels from alien technology obtained during alleged UFO crashes to fight climate change. Mr Hellyer was responsible in 1963 for creating the Canadian Armed Forces from the integration of the Royal Canadian army, navy and air force into one organisation. He has also campaigned over issues such as monetary reform, the Middle East and the environment. Mr Hellyer's website says that he is the 'first person of cabinet rank in the G8 group of countries to state unequivocally "UFO's are as real as the airplanes flying overhead".' Other public figures who have stated UFOs are of extra-terrestrial origin include former USSR leader Mikhail Gorbachev, Professor Stephen Hawking and Ronald Reagan.

Date Disclosed In Exclusive Interview With Shaman Lujan Matus Today I reveal the contents of an e-mail exchange I have been having with a man who is positioned as a modern day Shaman - Lujan Matus. What you are about to read are the very recent exchanges LM and I have had to set up the next post - originally for THS (The Heavy Stuff) - but, now posted here at UDCC instead, due to the nature of the information relating to UFO Disclosure that came forth from my questions. (Which is ONLY a part of what you will be reading.) So, I'm ready to lay this out for you - keep your mind open and your hands on the railings. Continue reading at Is 3-8-11 `Alien Disclosure'? Date Disclosed In Exclusive Interview With Shaman Lujan Matus ********** Evidence is overwhelming that UFOs are real, retired Army colonel says Retired Army Col. John Alexander is one heckuva guy with an amazing background in and out of the military. He's a former Green Beret commander happily married to Victoria Alexander, a film critic for Films in Review magazine. They live quietly here in Las Vegas, a few miles west of the Strip, and we've often run into one another at various events. Just a regular Las Vegas power couple? Not so fast because John has just published a new book about UFOs and extra-terrestrials that's bound to upset people. UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies and Realities also is en route to becoming a bestseller. My longtime good friend Lee Spiegel, an AOL editor in New York, tipped me to the fact that the highly decorated officer had used his military savvy and high security clearance to spend a quarter of a century going through the top levels of the U.S. government and military searching for the group of people who were allegedly responsible for UFO information and the supposedly decades-old UFO cover-up. His conclusions: Not only is there no such group and no cover-up, but also disclosure about UFOs has already occurred on official levels.

"We pay the best prices for all your body parts and organs," read pamphlets widely circulated in Johannesburg city. Police were reported to be trying to track down "Dr Uba", who advertised quick and painless same-day procedures. The Health Department also issued a statement of concern before the hoax was revealed on Thursday afternoon. The flyers advertised Dr Uba's Clinic and directed people to an active website that had gory photos of the procedures. It said Dr Uba was offering 5,000 rand ($700; £432) for a pair of eyes, 2,500 rand for a tongue and testicles could fetch up to 1,600 rand each. "Stop suffering in silence. Rush to get that cash you need. If not for you, do it for your loved one," the website said. By Thursday morning, newspapers, social networking sites Twitter and Facebook, and blogs were dominated by news of the surgery that was harvesting human body parts. But the BBC's Pumza Fihlani in Johannesburg says that when it turned out to be a hoax, many people were shocked. They said the publicity stunt was in bad taste given recent revelations about a kidney-trafficking syndicate, she says. Last year, private hospital group Netcare admitted it had been involved in an international syndicate worth millions of dollars by performing several operations at its hospital in Durban in 2003. The website for Dr Uba's Clinic now says: "Some things are worse than dying" - and directs people to a site for the forthcoming film, Nightdrive. Justin Head, the film's director and writer, said the movie was about a group of tourists who encounter a poacher who hunts human body parts, South Africa's Eyewitness News reports.  |
| The Wladyslaw Abductions - Legnica, Lower Silesia, Poland Posted: 26 Feb 2011 11:12 AM PST  A researcher named Grzegorz Domanski from the Legnica UFO Research Club related a scenario of an abductee from the Legnica, Lower Silesia area, involving several abductions by unidentified beings and the after-effects. Domanski found out about a case of Mr. Wladyslaw S. (fictional name) through contacts with Domanski's aunt, Halina L. (fictional name) who had business matters with this man and subsequently they became friends. Wladyslaw S. is a shop-owner and Mrs. Halina had once helped him to rent the location. This is the reason why she became his confidant to this particular story. It must be said that for a long time the witness refrained from revealing his experiences. One year and half passed before local researchers found out about the case. About the same time the witness became aware of local research club's existence (Legnicki Klub Badań UFO = UFO Research Klub of Legnica). Wladyslaw S. had considered the decision to share his experience with UFO experts. The first meeting with him took place in the flat of Mrs. Halina. Wladyslaw S. had no previous interested in the UFO phenomenon. As the informer Halina L, stated, her associate was once a completely different man...he was more straightforward, vigorous and active person. The occurrence he experienced considerably changed his psyche and initiated firm changes in his mentality. His first contacts took place in the 2nd part of the 1980's and as he assumed, they cause a quite stir in his life due to missing time experiences, spontaneous electric appliances activation, dreams involving UFO objects and many other phenomena. In that period he would also find several blood drops on his pillow. Their origin seemed very mysterious since they didn't come from any visible wound or scar. Those matters may or may not be connected with UFO contact but it must be reminded here that similar events aren't usually firm evidence but in total it reveals a pattern of abduction. As the witness claims, on every occasion and at least once a week, he would experience missing time phenomena that took place several times a day. Those time gaps were also filled with odd occurrences. Grzegorz Domanski tried to stress the chronological order of particular encounters but it wasn't always possible. Although Wladyslaw's encounters were nearly all the same, he doesn't possess conscious recollections of each one. Although completely real and material, some were witnessed by him in an abnormal state of mind. The witness recalled several other details but he isn't certain if these were real or mingled with dreams. The following is the possible scenario of one of his abductions: It all begins usually at about 6 pm., when he finishes his work. Mr. Wladyslaw, as usual, closes his shop and heads to his house in a certain village located several kilometers away from Legnica. At this time he experiences the 'missing time' and then he finds himself standing on a meadow in vicinity of his house. A huge craft, seemingly even bigger that the entire village is hovering directly over him. It is so large that it's hard to distinct its shape. Wladyslaw stated that it was oval-shaped and long, with lighting points located around its perimeter. Each of those 'illuminators' emanates blue, pulsating light. Then a beam of light descends upon him from above. It is of the same color. Then another time gap takes place. After a while the witness finds himself in a small, oval room filled with pale and dim light...also blue in color. His stay in this room isn't long because soon after entering two strange entities appear by his side. Both are dressed in a loose kind of jacket, blue in color and glimmering metallic. Their dress consists of a hood with a rectangular visor, a cloak or jacket with broad gloves and legs. Wladyslaw is sure that despite that they are of the same height as we, they moved in a completely different manner: they shuffle without moving their legs as if they had wheels on their heels. The witness assumes that he was in an abnormal state of mind in which everything around seems unreal. He isn't able to move. He also doesn't feel a need to communicate with the entities and remains under their total command and will. Then he is lead into a very long corridor...a tunnel filled with the same bluish light, although a bit darker. He doesn't have conscious recollections of his each trip via this tunnel but he usually moves through it in an upright position and while being suspended from the floor. He passively proceeds along with these beings, as well as they without moving his legs. This convoy takes him to a spacious room.  A small plate that seems to be part of the armchair is brought in or it moves towards him on it's own. Wladyslaw puts his hands onto it. In his head he can hear a voice repeating, "Don't be afraid', 'You'll be all right'. The witness doesn't see the voice owner; it definitely doesn't belong to any of the present beings. The person in question isn't physically present in the hall but it seems that 'he' is superior to the other beings...possibly controlling them. Then the voice orders him to turn his palms up, with their inner part turned upwards and then down and so on. After that 'examination' the plate withdraws. Then Wladyslaw (remaining in sitting position), receives massive amounts of information pertaining ecology, global politics and life conditions as well as the reasons for existence. The message is transferred through his subconscious and not expressed by means of vocal words. A three-dimensional visual accompanies the message. After an unknown period of time in the hall, another time gap occurs. After this gap, the witness finds himself again on a meadow neighboring his house but no craft above. On certain occasions he could recollect vague memories in the morning of the next day. He wasn't aware how long his experience lasted and when he was taken back. Many times when he was about to go to work, he noticed that his car wasn't in his yard as usual. In similar instances he was forced to go to Legnica by bus, then finding his untouched car parked by his shop. Wladyslaw's abduction frequency was changing as time went by. At first the abductions were regular, i.e. once a week...then become occasional and sporadic. The witness was harassed by the beings for about a year and half...then 2 one-year long gaps. Then 2 or 3 abduction incidents took place, divided by long intervals. The witness claimed in 2006 that he had not been abducted for several years but his contacts might take place in different forms and his memories remained hidden deep in his mind.  After one of these visits the witness noticed the following morning a small, very hard mustard-seed size protrusion on his left palm (on the inner part of his thumb). He isn't able to explain its origins. His thoughts were that the beings had implanted the object...placing it under his skin. Asked if he has tried to remove it, he said that the beings would be displeased with his deed and he would provoke another wave of unpleasant encounters. The witness agreed to a restricted examination of this protuberance by x-ray. Wladyslaw S. was also offered a regressive hypnosis session but he is reluctant. The Legnica UFO Club is going to x-ray Mr. Wladyslaw's hand and skull to verify, along with a doctor, implants presence in the witness' body. Regressive hypnosis session will be performed in the near future. - UFO Journal of Poland - some of the translation was edited NOTE: this report was presented in August 2006 but, as far as I know, there has been no follow up information provided.
