Environmental Exorcism Background
The world situation at the moment does not make sense if you just look at the news to work out what is going on. Most human behaviour is simply a mechanical repetition recorded in morphogenetic fields that are created from past events. With discliplined application of Shamanic techniques, it is possible to wake up individuals from that group nightmare. It is urgent that enough people soon become conscious enough to secure the future survival of this planet from a human perspective.

We need to clear these negative recordings that dictate mass human behaviour. This layer contains the undigested energy of millennia of past wars an social conflicts and oppressive political systems.

From a 22nd Century Shamanic perspective, Earth is surrounded by a holographic layer or dark matrix, rather like a large eggshell. This is constructed from past conditioned beliefs about the world. These beliefs include "I am not good enough to change this", "you cannot change the government", "all politicians are the same" and every other belief that limits your own power to create your world exactly as you want it to be. This layer contains the undigested energy of millennia of past wars and social conflicts and oppressive political systems.

Most people's lives consists of acting out the scripts of this layer, and most never free themselves enough to experience how good life can be if you wake up out of this very outdated system of conflicts. When people watch the "news" on television, they often think that is what is going on, never realizing that the "news" is a tiny selected fragment of events.

Gurdjieff and Ouspensky referred to "mechanical man" and thought it took 20 and more years to wake up out of the conditioning. We may not have 20 years left, so now we have to wake up faster.

In Australia, Buck kangaroos fight viciously for territory and females. Dogs urinate on walls to mark that they own territory. When humans have fights with guns and bombs over territory, they are exercising precisely the same instinctive behaviour as dogs urinating on walls. It is getting ridiculous to have this instinct directing guns and bombs. The mere idea of televised war is silly. We need to wake people up and get more people healing the planet.

Example of environmental clearing at the border of Bosnia
In all wars over the planet, people have completely forgotten what was the original conflict, as soulparts and egos swap sides during the heated emotion of the original battle.

I recently went with Maria Luiza to Yugoslavia to teach a healing group there techniques for Environmental Exorcism. The location was a beautiful national park on Tara mountain, which sits over a border of Serbia and Bosnia. The group who had invited us to teach was led by Zivorad Slavinski, a Yugoslav healer who has published 22 books.

I led the group on a Shamanic journey for each to find their Teacher, or teaching archetype to assist us in the healing work. Maria Luiza journeyed to find the Teacher for the group as a whole. The consciousness of Tara Mountain appeared to her, and it declared: "I, this mountain, am the teacher for this group. The blood that flowed over my rocks and in my rivers from battles past is the same blood that flows today in the veins of those present right here."

What we hadn't been told was that the workshop was at the exact location of the first ever massacre in that part of the world, which was about 740 years ago. Invading Turks could not find the villagers hidden in the mountains, so they waited for a Christian religious celebration in which all villages joined together. The worst massacre in recent Yugoslav history was only 15km away from the same site, about 6 years ago. Thousands of Moslem peasants were massacred in a few days.

What we experienced, and healed, was that the defeated spirits of the original battle became "earthbound" or stuck to their killers, due to the intense emotion of wanting revenge. So that is why, 740 years later another massacre happened at the same location. Theoretically now it was Christians killing Moslems, but actually with this, and all other wars on Earth, it has been completely lost to time what we are fighting about.

You can never know who started a fight while you are still feeling the impulse to fight. This applies to individuals within themselves, small groups gossiping or fighting, or nations warring. Desire to fight simply means there has been a swapping of soulparts between the fighting people.

The techniques we used to heal Tara Mountain included having the people present all move into the exact emotion of the original players in the conflict. This enables all to experience the emotions and beliefs of each other, and let go of the conflict. The group moved as a consequence into the original Battle of Kosovo. This is a battle in which both kings died, no side won.

One participant recovered a memory as being Milosh, who said he needed to kiss the Turkish king's feet to surrender. He did so and immediately killed him. That participant called this an act of great sacrifice, that he would like to repeat and repeat, and right now.

Another healer present, represented the other king who died, and said his only crime was "not knowing who he really was", so unable to get truth from his subjects. That participant,  in this life used to a high level NATO bodyguard, and a few months ago founded the first Shamanic school in Slovenia. This school meets weekly to conduct Environmental Exorcisms.

Now we knew why the mountain said the same blood that flowed over her in battle lives in the veins of those present. However, from a Shamanic perspective, memory is holographic, so we can recover and heal group traumas from past events without needing anybody present to be spiritually or genetically connected to the original conflict.

Methods we use for Environmental Exorcism
There are many methods we use for Exorcism, both personally and environmentally.  None of these methods use force as in the "Exorcist" movie. Force does not heal. Force makes "demons" stronger. It makes no difference whether "demons" are or seem to be other spirits, or part of your own unconscious mind, or leftover limiting beliefs of childhood. Hating or resisting negativity makes it stronger.

• Love heals. Experiencing how the other feels and thinks, and making space for that, heals. Here is a brief description of methods we find useful.
• In major work, or even in "Exorcism and Personal Power" workshops, assistants often feel a calling to stand in specific parts of the room in a formation that frees stuck energy. This is rather like group acupuncture, and is very simple and very powerful. They can focus on releasing "thought forms" or solidified belief structures in the room, then extend this to the person's whole family, and then to different parts of the planet, opening that larger environment to healing.
• Environmental healing teams have the ability to assume the perspective of all players in historical situations, and clear the negative recordings. They get to experience what it is like to be a winning king, a sacrificed soldier, an religious warring crusader, to be the Earth Mother Herself, with humans fighting to possess her. They get to clear the record of shadows, so others in the future will not step into these shadows and start fighting for no conscious reason.
• Clearing trauma from lost spirit fragments, shadows of old belief systems etc, and returning the life force of each to the Higher Self of their original creator

There are major healing benefits for the Environmental Clearers personally. Through gaining this flexibility of consciousness, they become free from susceptibility to psychic attack or being drawn into others negative games in life, in family, and in business.

Humans as Writers of History
Recently at an Environmental Exorcism in Porto Alegre, several men took positions of Earth domination, such as the Banderantes and the Crusaders. The men became totally possessed screaming how it is for men to dominate the Earth. Then a woman finally said "that is all lies", and then Mother Earth Herself, in a voice that no human could argue with said: "I am the Earth Herself. You dominators are making my back itchy. If you continue to itch me, I will scratch you all off, and you will not be the writers of history."

The whole huge mass of locked in energy instantly exploded into Light.
