Question ID: 561573
I am looking for a serious exorcist that offers consultations/see
clients.  I would prefer in the New York area but will accept other
states if none available here.  I have problems with being possessed
by negative entities- I have had healers temporarily help but I need
to banish them permanently.  Where can I turn?

Good answer will include name and contact information of
welldocumented (that have displayed good results) exorcists.  Thank
you!

Hello elenafox-ga,

First, before you embark into an exorcism, please go see a medical
doctor and a therapist. Not only to maybe get an idea if this is
?real? or psychological, but also to rule out any other issues as
well. Possession is quite rare and it may be many other factors
causing your issues instead of being possessed.

?my higher self is not happy with me and therefore causing the
negative entities to visit me until I do what I am supposed to do in
this lifetime? ?I think one problem is people stealing my energy for
instance it is known that when shaking hands especially older men and
younger women they steal your energy?

This makes me wonder who is advising you on what?s happening with you.
Please go see a Medical Doctor, a family practice doctor with a MD in
Medical Science and a Licensed Psychiatric Therapist

In addition, in my research, the Archdiocese requires?

?The Roman Catholic Church requires that a physician rule out the
existence of a medical or psychological condition before an exorcism
can be considered.?

"It might be harmful to do an exorcism prematurely," said the Rev.
Robert Barron, a Chicago archdiocese theologian and spokesman on
exorcisms. "You always exhaust the medical, physiological,
psychological, psychiatric possibilities and only at the very limit of
that process would you entertain the possibility of doing an
exorcism."
http://www.rickross.com/reference/general/general315.html (Exorcists
and Exorcisms Proliferate Across U.S.)
It looks like contacting the New York Archdiocese is your best bet in
finding an exorcist, however. In a 6-year period from 1989 to 1995,
they have investigated more than 300 potential cases, however only 10%
of the cases needed exorcisms performed. Since 1995, there have been
about 40 investigated cases a year.

Can you clarify for me what you mean by direct links? What do you want
pulled out of those search results?

Direct links meaning links to valid pages containing information on
exorcists practicing in New York (as opposed to links to searches). 
Because when I clicked on the link to search results there are a lot
of irrelevant pages that show up for example articles/info on the
exorcist movie, etc. Thank you!

Hello again,

If you look at the first link in my answer, you will see where I got
information on an exorcist in NYC. The 2nd link is to the website you
can contact them at or get a contact #. There aren't many professional
exorcists; in fact, the Catholic Church is the only one I could find.
An exorcism is a religious thing, and specifically Catholic.

There were no other links in those search results to other exorcists,
but I included them to help you and to show you how I found the
information I did. The relevant link from the search strategies is the
first link in the answer.

Does this help you?

Take comfort, elanafox, that you know you need help in dealing with the
negative forces in your life. Looking for help is an important step to take.

   Western culture does not provide much support in dealing with the
supernatural world. Consequently, our western construct of what to do
in this situation is quite limited. As your message/question pointed
out, you've been
helped by healers, but then the problem reoccurs. 

    What you appear to need is more than an exorcism or healing which
only drives out the negative entities. You also need to find out why
you are attracting these forces. There could be many reasons why you
are being possessed: something about your living situation
(relationships, housing), work, possessions, and life habits may be
causing you to attract these forces to you. For example, do you
collect antiques? Do you work in an profession which encounters lots
of negative forces (e.g. health care, mortuary science, academia) What
events in your personal history cause you to 'think or stew' too much
and thus attract negative forces to you?

 Once you've identified these culprits, you can consider what to do about them.

   In addition to having an exorcism, you also need to have help
finding out what you are doing to cause these negative forces to
possess you.    At the very least, you need to consider doing some
sort of physical and mental practice to discipline your body and mind.
In this way, you won't be sending out signals/frequencies that invite
these forces to you. Some people do yoga, some do qigong/chikung:
whatever practice you follow, be sure it is one that does not involve
any visualizations at all. I have found practicing qigong helpful in
this, but finding a good teacher is not easy - hence I live in Taiwan.

  You should also know that there are different types of exorcisms. The movie
The Exorcist portrays a very messy and quite lengthy exorcism using
negative forces. Another type involves using positive forces, making
it much quicker and
not at all messy. If you lived in Taiwan, I could introduce you to someone
who does the 'positive forces' exorcism. 

  Best wishes in your search.

During a Greek baptism the priest performs an exorcism on the baby
before it is baptised, I have seen it done several times.  The priest
explains the whole process in English after the baptism is over.  A
Greek Orthodox church might be able to help you.

Thank you purplecloud! Unfortunately i am not in Taiwan but wouldn't
mind going.  I found some information about entities- apparently most
of them are dead people who have been afraid of leaving the world to
go to heaven and they latch on to whoever they can (spirit
attachment).  A healer told me the other day that part of the
negativity is self-destructive subconciousness and my higher self is
not happy with me and therefore causing the negative entities to visit
me until I do what I am supposed to do in this lifetime.  But how am I
supposed to know what that is?  I also heard that the entities gain
power when talked about so I try to keep it undercover.  I do not
really feel that the evil forces are out to get me but even so the
entities are causing negative energy and misfortune to me whether
intentional or not.  I agree that I must be doing something to attract
these forces but not sure what, I have difficulty focusing and
concentrating and sometimes hear voices.  I think one problem is
people stealing my energy for instance it is known that when shaking
hands especially older men and younger women they steal your energy
(not consciously).  So perhaps I have a lot of good vibrational
frequencies/energies that attract negative people known as psychic
vampires/parasites (since they lack energy of their own) so they take
mine therefore causing me negativity.  Tricky situation- still if
anyone knows any really good professionals in this field please let me
know!

Elenafox,
Have you entirely rejected talking to professionals other than
"healers" and "exorcists" who deal with your perceptions?

"A healer told me the other day that part of the
negativity is self-destructive subconciousness and my higher self is
not happy with me and therefore causing the negative entities to visit
me until I do what I am supposed to do in this lifetime."

Most of us have periods when we know that we are not doing what we
ought to be doing.  Some Christian religions include this in the
confession of sins:  "I have left undone those thing which I ought to
have done."  Obviously, one does not have to be a Christian or
religious to suffer from recognition of this, but that statement puts
the responsibilty back with the individual.  Demons or voices or other
negative forces are just expressions of one's own conscience -
subconscience -  telling one this.

Nenna-ga's advice to get a health check up is good - to a point. Western
medicine can treat symptoms, but often can't get to the root of a problem. 
So, it can only temporarily stablize your situation. Sooner or later some
other symptom or illness will poke its head up, but the root problem is the same.

A more holistic approach would have a better chance to get close to the root
of the problem. Most people have the same problem -- using our minds
too much/thinking too much/ hanging on to our past. Most people have
developed
their own way to be 'healthy' for a number of years, only to sucumb to ill
health when they enter/pass through middle age.  

You mention needing to figure out what you are supposed to do in your lifetime.
Perhaps a better phrasing of that would be 'what you are supposed to
be in your lifetime.' Western culture, esp American culture, focuses
on what profession you are in -- it's often the first question
strangers ask each other. Europeans don't ask that question for a long
long time.  Getting access to knowing what you're supposed to be is
largely a matter of just learning to be quiet, of turning off the
noise in your mind -- like in the Carly Simon song 'Haven't Got Time
For the Pain'.  The first step to being quiet is de-emphasizing or
turning off the electro-magnetic forces our minds generate when we use
it.

Trying to figure out whether someone is stealing your energy or not
will not get you very far in solving your situation. Answers to
questions usually stimulate more questions, creating a vicious cycle. 
You have enough energy or forces to enable you to be alive, and that's
what's important in the end.

Different religions and cultures have their own way to describe how
energies or forces appear in our life. It's remarkable how similar
they are. If you are
interested in knowing more about the Chinese (Confucian, Taoist and
Buddhist) understanding of these energies and forces, you could visit
this website:
www.chikung.org.tw   which has Q&A in English and Chinese.

First you need to know what u have to exorcise out?
As said negative entities are if ill feelings,bad thoughts and memories recurring
then u can perform exorcism yourself.
Human body and soul are to be kept clean.Body is a temple for the life
essence.It is consciousness and love that is the real nature of
soul.Now will u put water into an internal combustion engine to work
properly , would u.Similarly human body
will not maximise itself,work properly if it is not supplied with the
right fuel.this right fuel is right food,right thought,right doings.
Of these most of the time food is the most important thing u need to
work on.what u are is what u eat.If u eat meat,fish your mind will be
suscepltible,defenseless against animalistic behavior and cravings.its
like gasoline mixed with water. Now if u strictly eat fresh
vegetable/cereal meals it will be like pure gasoline.humans were not
at all meant to kill and eat other souls,but at times it was found
necessary. What a human must do is to preach and practice love to the
most,it produces the most profound cleansing experience on mind and
body alike, and right kind of food makes him more prepared for it.This
is my own view that i practise.Of course there are a lot of
meat-people with no problems,there are a lot of meat-people with
problems and also same for non-meat people.but its worth a try....and
it might become easy for u to turn inward,meditation.
