Alcoholism is often referred to as a spiritual disease, but without allusion to exactly how spiritual it is. It is my theory, based on much study, that alcohol is called “spirits” because of the following reason: The human eye can only see about 3 percent of the possible spectrum of light. That means that we cannot see 97% of what is in front of our faces. This spectrum thing was proven to me on a 1969 Mescaline Sulphate trip, when I seemed to see hundreds of colors I had never seen before.
Part of this 97% includes the spirit world, the “other side”. I believe that God has given us some sort of film, or blocker, in our brain, that blocks out the spectrum of light from the spirit world. I have seen spirits, but mostly in the form of vague colored lights that conform perfectly to the shape and look of the missed person. I have also seen them as ectoplasm, which is a confluence of spirits. I have seen them intuitively in all shapes, identities, and nationalities, and I feel their presence and hear their messages with great ease, as I have already made clear. But I am a rare one.
Most people have the spirit world blocked from view by some kind of a filter in the mind, and also filters that prevent us from seeing all the other planes of existence that exist before us are in place. I suppose that in an evolutionary sense, it would be too devastating to a normal person to be able to see more than the reality that was pounded into their head from the time they were a baby.
When the normal person drinks, he is lifted up by spirits around him, and that is what, on the spiritual plane, makes him laugh, dance, sing, and talk in a more elevated manner, or meet dates or have sex with greater ease and gusto – up to a certain amount of alcohol, when purely chemical effects take precedence and the person gets inebriated.
The alcoholic is someone who carries with him a bad, mean, or unpleasant spirit, and the alcoholic has a lesser or weaker membrane, so that at a certain level of intoxication, this bad spirit literally posesses him, prompting him to drink into a stupor and often exhibit all kinds of bad behavior as he manifests a completely different personality than he has when sober.
To me, with these alcoholics, it is just not the same guy or gal when they are drunk. Someone else is there entirely, and often, someone mean and unpleasant. One person I know turns into a Jamaican when drunk, with a perfect use of their language which he does not know and their accent. These people are possessed. Having seen so many possessions in my spiritual work, I know when a person is a possessed body. And that is the alcoholic past the third drink. Those bad spirits want more and more alcohol, and they spur the drinker on so hard that when the spirit leaves, which is usually at the point of loss of consciousness, the person “wakes up” – in a puddle of piss, or in jail, or in a car wreck, or in the back of a police car. Or, if he is lucky, at home, having no memory of how he got there.
I have just succinctly explained the spiritual theory of alcoholism, and I believe in my words.
