- 32 - There are various physical conditions that promote the intrusion of spirits into human beings. Such impairments can often be ascribed to congenital psychic receptiveness or a fatigued nervous system or a sudden mental shock. Purely physical disorders can also promote possessions; the organism offers little resistance when the natural vitality is weakened and pushy spirits gain easy access even though neither the living nor the deceased are often not aware of the presence of the other! This impairment through spirits changes the character of the afflicted and an obvious change within the personality takes place, whereby a number of alien personalities are at times depicted, respectively imitated simultaneously in clearly defined succession. Such spirit influences often cause extreme madness of the most varied grades, from simple mental confusion to all forms of madness, hysteria, epilepsy, melancholy, shell-shock, kleptomania, religious and suicidal delusion as well as memory loss, mentally induced physical frailty, inebriation to the point of uncontrollable addiction to immorality and cruelty, animalistic behaviour and other forms of criminality. Mankind is surrounded by millions of disembodied spirits that have not yet grasped the higher meaning of life! If one accepts this as fact, a plethora of phenomena like unwanted thoughts, unfounded emotions, strange premonitions, moods, irritability, excessive excitability, unreasonable outburst of passion, uncontrollable delusions and numerous other derailments within the emotional and sentient life are casually explained.” Dr. Wickland then describes the way he managed to make contact with earthbound and possessive spirit entities vias his psychically gifted wife and how he can cause the former to abandon their bond with the secular, the here and now (23, P. 47): “The transfer of the pathological states of the soul of a patient to the medium (my wife) is assuaged when we excite the patient with the help of an influence-machine, something we do quite often in the presence of the medium. Even though this electrical charge is quite harmless for the patient, it has an extraordinary powerful effect, because the possessing spirit cannot bear this electrical treatment for too long and is therefore driven from the patient. The spirit thus ousted can now find access to the medium with the support from our invisible helpers. This makes it possible to directly converse with the relevant spirit and one can now make an attempt to give it the cognizance about its true situation and to inform it that it could actually lead a much better existence. The higher developed spirit will then take it with them and look after it from then on, whilst my wife returns to her normal state of consciousness. Completely within the narrated experiences, we held regular meetings with my wife as medium and in many instances received highly remarkable evidence that disembodied entities were the initiators of the pathological mental state. Even when the patient lived far away from us, we were often successful in banishing the possession spirits from their victims to then bring them to our circle through our invisible spiritual helpers, where they were allowed to take possession of the body of Influence-Machine Two concentrically arranged revolving disks are set in opposite directions with a crank handle. Through influence, this produces a high electrical voltage that is very unpleasant to a person attached to it, but because of its low amperage isn’t dangerous.
