what are negs?

i keep hearing that word. :/

When people come across something they assume is a negative being in the astral, they call it a "neg". Many think the most common negs are manifested by a projectionist's subconscious.

can you give me deeper info on it plz?

i wanted to know the basics about them; can they hurt me, are they visible, are the the astral body of someone else, are they visible in the physical realm, can they stalk me, what attracts them, etc.   a link or page would be fine as well. thanks

Can you make a Neg by willing it to be there while having an OBE?

[Doringo]

Yep. And you can use the same method to get rid of them, fortunately!

As Stookie mentioned, many people believe these are created by the individual. So they can hurt you if you believe they can. They are visible, if you think they are, etc.

Personally I think people read about them and then are unsure. So when they finally project, one of the first things on their mind is "what if I meet a neg". Well, OBE/Astral/ and so on feed off our each person's thoughts/feelings. So if you 'think' about a neg, guess what will happen? You'll start to sense/see something that looks like what you think a neg may look like. Once you get a 'glimpse' of it, then you confirm for yourself that they exist and you are near one. This creates a more 'solid' neg. Then you start getting afraid and either feed it energy by your fear or you simply wake up. Either way, you have now met a 'neg' and know they exist. So whenever you are out and begin to think about them, they will manifest -- its a cycle created by you via your thoughts/fears.

The only way to not encounter one or to 'beat' one is to not think about them at all. The briefest of thoughts will begin to manifest the fear which creates it. If you are out and never think about them, you won't meet them. At least this has been my experience. I've been doing this for a few years now and I've never met one.

I find negs particularly interesting for the role they play in self-psychanalysis;

Facing them and making them go away is the best way to altogether eliminate irrational fears in your everyday life. Those self-created negs are usually born from "scars" in your consciousness, often from things you saw during childhood -- any kind of trauma, from seeing something weird on TV to catching your parents having sex to being in a car accident, etc... Those scars are referred to as crystallized energy or blockages, sometimes they can be observed as "core images" as Robert Bruce calls them, where a particular image in your memory is the manifestation of this trauma, and destroying the image destroys the fear.

A great way to deal with this stuff is to go into the OBE with courage -- no matter what happens, you will be strong and rational. Take every negative experience as a lesson rather than a deterrent... You are being shown your demons because you want to fight them, not collapse and chicken out of the experience.

One thing to remember is that if a genuine negative entity, an "evil demon," wants to possess you and make your life a living hell, it definitely won't be attacking while you're out of body, where you are at your strongest potential. When you're out of body or in deep trance, you are infinitely more "powerful psychically" than when you are fully awake and unaware. If I were an evil demon looking to suck some energy, I would steer away from people who can project their consciousness!
