OTHERPLANE

I live in Melbourne, Australia. I came across your interesting and informative web site (thanks) while looking for ways of cleansing my home.

Let me tell you what happened:

In early May 1999, I looked across from my window bedroom to the block of flats facing my bedroom and saw a white apparition (I think) moving in an empty flat across from me. I tried to ignore it and also placed my vanity mirror facing outwards to reflect any ghosts from my flat (Chinese superstition).

On the weekend of 15 & 16 May 1999, I went away to Daylesford (about 1 hour's drive from Melbourne) with some friends. We went for walks around the town and also in the bush. We had an enjoyable time at the local hot springs as well. A few nights after I returned, my radio clock turned on about midnight and I thought nothing of it because I thought that I must have done it or it was caused by a power surge.

The following Saturday night (22 May), as I walked into my bedroom, I smelled an odor like sulphur and didn't think much about it. Thought it came from my cooking and just went to bed. About midnight, there was a scraping noise right next to my bed and I felt like I was being compressed by something. So, in my thoughts, I called out at the entity to "get out in the name of Lord Jesus Christ" about 3 times before it went away. Soon after, there was a loud knock from outside my bedroom. Of course, I was badly shaken and could hardly sleep. Next day, I rang a friend and asked for the phone number of a spiritual person from South America and I went to see him asap (24 May).

His name is Algilberto Valias. He thinks I could have picked up some entities while walking in the bushland in Daylesford and told me:

... to go to each corner of my flat with a candle and glass of salt water and ask God, Jesus Christ, Yemanja, Oxossi, angels and guides to cast out any evil, and to protect and bless the place. After that, I was to wash out the glass of salt water(1 tablespoon salt and 3/4 water) and refill with more salt water and place it at the entrance to my flat. The candle was to be tossed into the sea.

... to go to the sea and ask for Yemanja's help and protection and to collect some sea water and sprinkle it in the flat.

... to go and visit a cemetery bringing some flowers with me to lay on some tombstones and to make peace with the dead.

I have done all of the above with some relief but I still feel my flat is not rid of all the unwelcome entities as I'm not at peace and can hear noises. I guess you can say that I'm easily scared or have a good imagination. I "think" I catch sight of dark shadows, feel I'm being watched or sense things and I get goose bumps even when people talk about ghosts.
