The Lucifer Deception

This is an intriguing book by a Norwegian vet that will undoubtedly challenge the boggle thresholds of some readers, describing as it does the memory of a past life as a physician at the Chinese court of the Emperor Yu and his energetic relationship with the spirit of the legendary Yellow Emperor, which the author identifies as Lucifer. The narrative builds on the understanding of Steiner of a battle between the forces of freedom and those of domination and explains his own theory that many diseases are caused by a spiritual translocation involving the transfer of pathological entities. Practitioners of Chinese medicine will be interested in the implications of his account of the reduction of 12 elements/energies to 5, and his recollections of his past life are certainly dramatic. He describes disturbing ways in which energy can be tapped by powerful individuals, often from women, as well as the significance of blood sacrifices in ancient cultures. All this shows that 'our present world has deep roots arising from ancient deeds of black magic', which is a serious point in relation to the way in which we use spiritual forces, whether consciously or unconsciously, and the need for these to be expressions of love and freedom.
