[Jitendra Hydonus]

There are different kinds of spirits. The Bible even councils us on discerning spirits.

Discerning of spirits is a gift of the Spirit that allows believers to perceive the source and nature of spiritual manifestations and activities. It can help them to see beyond the natural world and discern if a spirit is of God, of the devil, of man, or of the world. It is not a natural or psychic ability, but a supernatural detection system that requires the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit. It can affect how believers understand sickness, behavior, relationships, and spiritual gifts.

Brother Bhaktananda once helped me discern a spirit involved in my life. I asked him to help me since a spirit had entered my life who made his transition in 1969 but was still lingering on the earth plain. Brother Achalananda also spoke to us about spirits and his experiences with them. Sometimes various types of spirits are with us because of our habits and behaviors.
