Hiya Hillary,
I too have found out similar things in my own practice. I used to do the
white light bubble thing, rituals, etc. What I found through experience
is that shielding is like a big broadcast message on the etheric: "Hey,
come here, there is something chewy and tender inside! Yum, snack time!"
The more intense the shielding the bigger the signal and the more
intense the energy (entities) attracted. In a sense it reinforced
something in myself that needed to be cleared. Shielding over time, in
my experience, becomes a cage. It keeps things out but it keeps us in
and we have no idea how much we are limited by that.
Although we may call ourselves non-dualists we do live in duality and
have to respect those rules, not live as if they don't exist. White
light practices attracts the darkness for balance. Learning to embrace
and love the darkness is one of those developmental tasks we must
eventually learn in our spiritual practices.
When the big baddies showed up in the etheric instead of shielding or
calling in the white light forces, I surrender. I lay down and say "take
me, eat me, I am yours." What happens is I feel a flash of dry heat and
cold fear as the "entity" swallows and absorbs me. What I have found
through experience is that I am the one who does the swallowing and
absorbing because that "entity" is a lost part of me coming to be
reclaimed and reintegrated into my Self.
What is left behind after the devouring is an incredible feeling of
peace and enormous pristine inner space, clarity of vision. Being
killed, dying in the realm of spirit can be different than death in the
physical. It is only natural to fear it because it threatens the status
quo or our investment in the survival of what we know. But it is only
fear of the unknown. We do know what we know, we know what we don't
know. The hugest quantity of this equation is we don't know what we
don't know so we resist surrendering.
I have devoured so many beasties over the last 5 or 6 years they don't
come around me any more. I have hardly any shields because the light is
clear, neither white or dark. (I may have some unconscious shielding
somewhere cause, after all, I am human.)In other words, I have reclaimed
and embraced so many dark lost parts of myself that my vibrational
quality has changed. I no longer attract fearful things into my life
because there really is nothing to fear.
I have no fear in the realm of Spirit. It's in the physical where I have
some practical worries. :)
I think shielding can be a useful tool in the beginning until we build
our confidence in knowing we are All That Is. Eventually we can let go
of that dependence and go to another level of existence.
Just sharing my own experiences here.
Your maya may vary.
