Sleep Paralysis | Paul | Saturday, August 7, 2004 |
Question: Ever since I can remember I've had sleep paralysis. I only just recently found out that it had a name. It's while entering sleep or in the process of waking up you enter into a semiconscious state in which you are paralyzed while seeing experiencing evil and demon-like apparitions, sounds, or voices around you. It always has an aura of evil without exception. I did not want to make any decision on the spiritual aspect of this without hearing if the church had any views on it but I have no clue where to look. I have heard from a psychologist that it's documented and many people have it but they only have theories on why it happens. These occurances seem to happen moreso during spiritually uplifting times. Although it can be disturbing at times I believe it only strengthens my walk with Jesus. I am Catholic and stong in my faith and only wish to try and understand this more and to know if the church has any standing on this issue. Thanks! Paul |
