I shall summarise this story I experienced a few months ago.
>friend already stressed and mentally vulnerable
>goes alone to Manikarnika Ghat at midnight, sits for hours
>comes back to hostel, starts feeling watched, hears knocks/whispers
>paranoia ramps up, frames it as something supernatural
>Goes to the countryside and tells cousin in Bihar
>cousin has sudden fever + psychotic/dissociative episode
>shaking, accusations, tantra/“entity” narrative
The thing that scared him to shit the most was that she (It) was yelling at my friend:'s about how he didn't share the cigarette he was smoking near the ghat with "it" when it asked.
>family panics, calls tantric, temporary calm
friend gets scapegoated and leaves the place and returns to hostel
>fear spreads to others in contact
>I experience same while isolated in hostel
Was going to shit my pants because I am a regular nocturnal guy who stays up at 2am-4am every day but this was something really new to me. So I start meditating, I am trying to larp as Buddhist so in my meditation, I wish for peace and compassion emanating from me towards whoever/whatever is doing this to me, if it exists, seen or unseen, known or unknown.
>nothing escalates, no consistency
>routine + time = symptoms fade for all involved
realization: stress + fear + suggestion
no entity, just human psyche under pressure. The mind is its own ultimate enemy, frens. So learn to tame the mind first and foremost. Then try fucking around with whatever creature/entity.
It's all in the mind
