INTRODUCTION
Just around the writing of 'People deserve to be used...' I was personally caught by an energetic fall in consciousness. It took me about a week to slowly start crawling out of this trap. Here's the story of what might have happened.

CREATING STRONG INTENTIONS
A few weeks ago I started to make regular intentions which were directed towards raising my level of awareness, my average vibration. The raising of awareness - in my opinion - is directly related to the way you run your energyflow. You cannot afford to lose loads of energy on certain matters that actually lower your energy. You also need to become aware of limiting modes of thinking. More of the unconscious layers needs to surface.

DEALING WITH WOMEN
Well, as I was starting to feel better and more creative I noticed that I was giving quite a lot of energy to my interactions with women. I have spoken about dealing with women before but now it became fairly obvious to me that when I walk through the streets I tend to scan every woman: if she is attractive enough I tend to look at her a bit longer and I have the inclination to catch her eyes in the hope to create a friendly smile on her face. This smile then gives me a feeling of still being alright.

As soon as I became aware of this tendency, I realized that this mode of walking around was quite energy-draining. Not only was I investing a lot of attention outwards towards other people, but I have even made myself slightly dependent on their responses. If I were to move on vibrationally I had to make a serious change in this behavior.

From that moment on I started to experiment with another approach: not only did I shorten my scans, but I also tried not to exchange friendly looks. In principle I did not want to take a second look at anyone anymore, not when a possible second (or longer) look was dependent on the attractiveness of the woman at hand.

USING INSTINCTS
I soon discovered that this tendency to scan women - no matter how short - was deeply embedded in my system. I guess that I was touching upon some basic instincts here. Instead of fighting them I thought it was a good idea to use that instinct for my own benefit. So, whenever I noticed the scanning instinct, I used it to create the intention to increase my vibration. Through this method I would intend the raising of my awareness on more times a day, and on top of that I would retain more attentional energy as well.

It was quite funny to notice that in the beginning I really started to get some headaches. It felt as if some deep and worn grand canyon-like neuropathways were being moved into another direction. After a few days I started to get the hang of it and I actually started to feel stronger and more powerful.

TURNING INTO A THREAT?
The trouble with having read about and dealt with unseen energetic forces and entities is that they are a part of my reality construct. This means that I tend to incorporate them in energetic developments. Seen from the Loosh-perspective there are certain lower vibrational beings that prefer men to continue scanning women and invest energy in that act. The reason of that being that it keeps people in lower vibrational bands and many of them prefer the lower-vibrational energetic food that we produce.

As soon as you start creating a new pathway they might feel threatened. It might become a blueprint for many other people and many of those astral fauna don't like to have higher-vibrational people around them, because they might start to realize their enormous powers; powers that are far greater than their own. I prefer to think that when you are in a higher-vibrational mode of being you still produce loosh, but loosh of a finer quality than can be used by energetic beings that have a finer vibration themselves.

A NEW ATTACK: ENTER SHAMEFUL THOUGHTS
While writing this page I sense the increase of my breath and the expansion of my belly which I have become to value as a sign of mind-expansion as well (also see Buddha's Fat because he's Enlightened). This extended mode of breathing is often accompanied by a feeling of joy and an increased glow in the heart-region.

It is so great to experience the literal entry into another reality as soon as your thoughts are into a higher bandwidth. For me this change is more impressive and more valuable than many changes in the physical, like going to another place, or meeting different people. This inner shift is a beautiful one which I would recommend to everyone.

However, as soon as you start resonating at a higher frequency, there are new challenges. For now I prefer to think that these lower-vibrational energetic beings try to do everything within their might to chop your head off, so to speak: they want you to feel small again and think accordingly.

One way to establish such a vibration-destruction is by entering thoughts that arouse feelings of shame. Shame is one of the lowest vibrations that man can experience and when you allow yourself to have feelings and thoughts of shame within your system, the collapse of your energy will soon follow.

This is what happened to me last week: I developed/received some thoughts that created a sense of shame within me. How could I be working on the increase of my reality vibration, when I had certain shameful thoughts within me? Once your vibration has collapsed it is not so easy to rebuild yourself again. Especially when you keep on feeding the feelings of doubt and shame.

Luckily  I was able to recognize the fall in energy and determine the origin, which allowed me to slowly move out of this reality-mode. Everyone can have shameful thoughts, that doesn't  mean that you are all of a sudden a very bad and unworthy person. It is all about what you prefer to invest your energy in. I prefer to invest it in raising  my awareness and I won't allow myself to stay trapped in some shameful cave of low-vibratory thought-waves.

CONCLUSION
For me this experience has taught me that once you are able to hold more energy, your frequency is likely to rise. Once your vibration is in a higher mode your challenges change and you might meet attacks from the etheric realms that try to get your energy down again. This world is filled with stimuli that can easily keep you tied to the ground. The continued intentions to understand what is going on, combined with the desire to raise your awareness is likely to produce the thoughts that can pull you out of that swamp of lower-vibrational thoughtwaves.

It is a good thing to try and remember the thoughts or activities that increased your sense of true joy. They might turn out to be very useful in pulling you out of the mud or they can assist you in maintaining this joyful and creative mode of being. For me writing and being alone are often very illuminating.
