Responding to psychic greeting

[Plenum]

A portion of my response was informed by the Law of One perspective I've been learning here, and the part of my spirit that resonated with that perspective in the first place. Another portion of my response projected my hurts of the past into the present, making a mixed-message mess.

I am working through the underlying issues from a psychological point of view with a compassionate, skillful counselor who's mostly Buddhist in outlook. My question here is what Law of One material might particularly apply in using wisdom and discernment, when offered an emotionally intense opportunity to join in a negatively polarized situation.

my understanding of psychic greeting is this:

1) you have a distortion

2) negative entities know how to manipulate that distortion for their benefit

3) you become aware that you are being manipulated/having your buttons pushed

4) you banish that entity so that you have a clean place of working (think of a hospital with clean hands, clean gloves)

5) you work on balancing/understanding your distortion

6) you thank the entity for bringing that distortion that had been previously un-noticed/ignored to the forefront of your attention.

of course, the doing of this is much harder than the writing of this
