Black Magic

I know of a woman who married a man 20-odd years ago, worked her way up, but seeked the help of the dark world to manage the man from the day she met him. Coming from a culture rich in such beliefs, she sought assistance from sources to secure her livelihood. It gave her all the luxuries of a life she dreamt of.

In Asia, seeking help from the dark realm is common to some cultures - and as much disbelief a lot of us have in such stories, it exists, in it's darkest form. From what limited understanding that I have of this, it's a fact that such mediums exist either as hoaxes to bleed money from unsuspecting persons, or real, in that they actually adopt the assistance of some spiritual being loafing around.

In some cultures, the mediums are able to request for the beings to control another person. They call this 'tying'.
It's not a good thing to do, because we are all basically souls, with a balance sheet. We need to do penance for sins that we have committed so that when our soul is ready to return to our Maker, it's smoked it's peace-pipe. For every action there is an equal reaction. And for such people who seek such assistance from the dark spirits, the pay-back is great, too great that it can send a person's soul into a spiral into hell.

My question is, why so much of desperation to live a comfortable life? She must really be scoring low on the ability scale to sell her soul (almost literally) to get what she wants. What happened to good ole hard work?

It's rather disgusting to think that people do stoop so low so that the rest of the world would think of them as achievers. Well, what do we do, when we find out?

I think we should always remind ourselves that we have succeeded only when we put in our sweat to get to where we are. Along the way, we meet friends, who support our work and we build a business, relationships and strength to become better people.
That is a self-made person, deserving of mention.

But when a person seeks help from lost souls - that person better go join them, since they obviously don't have living souls who are interested enough to support them.

Maybe they just don't believe in GOD, but well, if there is no GOD, where the hell did the lost souls come from? Mars?
