My son had gone on a college trip, and whilst returning by train, one of his mates started shaking and collapsed. The boys tried to revive him but he had the strength of ten to throw at least 4 boys. Then he started talking in a different voice, saying," So you pray a lot, eh, now Ill see how you do it " The boys though terrifeid at this experience, did ask the ghost who he was and to leave his body. The ghost refused, then one of his Muslim friends said some prayer in his ear and made him drink some holy water, after which he started shaking terribly and the spirit left his body. The boy got up w ondering why everybody was looking at h im. Nobody told him of his body being possessed, but they made him say his Muslim prayers, and when he went to sleep, the boys kept a watch on him all night in the train. When my son recounted this experience to me, I was shocked and shaking too. To think spirits can take possession of a body so easily. What do you think of this. Im petrified and thank God it was not my son. However, he too has had a bad experience too.

When a boy starts shuddering, speaking in a totally different voice, has the strength of 10 bulls, i wouldnt call him ill. To believe or not is ones own prerogative, but what 40 boys saw cannot be wrong. Hope you never get to experience such a situation. Better not to belive than see it and believe.

hi toxicMDR. Are you a christian, muslim or an atheist? If you are an atheist I understand how you responded. If you are a christian, then just to let you know in the Bible, devil possession has always been mentioned and stories of Christ casting them away. I assume that Muslims also know about devil possession since it's mentioned in the discussion. Devil possession is for real. A child who has the strength of 10 people CANNOT be normal.

Hi yuna15, to answer your question i`m an atheist.
Now about "possessed" people, why do they start to be "possessed" just when easy influenceable people are around? when the next dude gets "possessed" bring him to me, after 5 minutes of transforming in front of me (me sitting in front of him very bored and amazed of how ill he is) and after 10 minutes he will see i don`t give a f*ck abound the "devil" inside him, he will leave crying :) (or with the ambulance and well trained doctors to cure his "possession"). damn i really enjoy myself watching movies with those people :)

Was this something you saw on television?Did this happen to you in real life?It sounds a little hard to believe to me.I just find it a tad how it is.I mean most possessions don't speak.The strength is an obvious give away.Perhaps there was something spiritual that went on in that location..I couldn't tell you sorry.

Friend, my son was a living proof of what happened along with atleast another 40 students who had gone on a trip. Yes, possessions do speak, but in a different voice from the one possessed. No, the boys were returning from a industrial visit which is a learning come fun trip. Besides they were returning home and were in a train as the journey was overnight by train.

I think that God allows possession of evil spirits to show us his kindness. Yes it is a terrible experience. However possession is not that easy as you might think. God is much more powerful than evil And SAtan cannot possess anybody without God's permission. © ronaldinu 2008

I really dont think so. This type of kindness we can do without. God, in my opinion will never do anything to harm anybody, with His permission. Satan takes care of his own, so the p ossession. Besides, I have seen even Christian people possessed. No religion can safely say, nobody from o ur religion can be possessed. Yes, God is all Powerful, but allowing an evil spirit to possess ones body is beyong my belief. Thanks.

I feel that if your a Christian that these things will not happen to you. Your a child of God and under his protection.
I do agree that noting is happening that God does not know about!

No it's not really easy for ghosts to possess your body. This only happens to those who have a velnurable soul or spirit. The boy who got possessed must need to consult his spirit counselor. Saying his prayers is a good move. It makes his spirit stronger. I know a few people who had similar experiences and devil possession is really not something new. Just keep the faith of your family strong and this won't happen to any of you...

Yep yuna, they have taken him to his religious head for protection. Its weird the way these spirits can just enter and possess somebodys body. He is a nice boy and prays a lot, so I suppose the spirit wanted him to stop or something. However, the spirit luckily was not strong enough to withstand the prayers said in his ears by his friends and the holy water and left. May God protect all of us. Amen.

Possession of the body by a ghost a.k.a jin has been happening for a long time in various parts of the world. Possession cases are usually done by non-Muslim jins. There are various reasons to them doing this. One of it is to lead us astray.
As a part time psychic ghost hunter my friends and I have met several types of ghosts. In general the independent types are easier to deal with. It is the ones sent by whoever feeds them that are difficult, especially if the other person is stubborn. In the case of your friend's son it could have been a wandering ghost who intended to create some mischief.

Whew, you are a psychic ghost hunter. How did you get into this. I am really amazed that people actually work with ghosts. I have heard of men taking charge of some poor soul and making them work for them. This is really awful. Can these poor souls be freed ? This wandering soul as you say, is it easy to take possession of a persons body. Why cant our soul fight back. Its all a big mystry to me. Id love to know more about your work. Take care.

1 in 4 of us have some psychic ability. 1 in 20 can do lots of things with their minds. So you may be psychic and there are several ways to test this.
Psychic ghost hunting is using the mind to see and negotiate them. If the entities want to fight then we have to. That is why it is not advisable to do it alone. Usually I ask other psychic hunters to be with me. They are the ones who tell the others what I did because they could 'see'.
Muslims use the last three surahs in the Quran as a means of protection against witchcraft and from being disturbed by most entities. There is a hadith on this. There is another hadith on the use of Ayat ul Kursi.

Perhaps what i will do, is the wish the happiness of the ghost, and wish that all beings be at ease. It's called loving-kindness. Simple, but then incredibly effective.
About fear, you should watch how it arises, and how it fades, thus learning the nature of such feelings. Then, in this way, you'll never be mentally moved by feelings.

Oh yes, everybody prayed for peace for the spirit, the soul who wanderes. I dont know how much we can follow your advice about fear. Its easier said than done. But yours is a spiritual outlook, so i suppose it must be easy for you. thanks.

Yes, its a bad scene and I really salute the boys for their boldness and talking to the spirit. It must have left a bad scar on the boys psyche. However, being young, they will get over it, hopefully. Id also be dumbstuck if such a thing was seen by me. Thanks.

This boy is supposed to be very religious and prays all his prayers. However, this has happened all of a sudden. He is a very young fun loving boy who enjoys himself and yet is religious. There was absoultely no indication of anything before this. Hopefully, the spirit i s gone for ever. It was an awful experience.

I believe in this story..coz I have seen one...some really have prayers to call on spirits and these are really harmless...so I do not see any reason why they should harm anybody not unless it was their enemy before...the spirit wants some revenge but generally spirits are harmless

Thankfully this spirit was just out to scare the boys out of th eir wits end. It finally left the body, but left all worried. As you say, it must be a harmless spirit, but then why did it say, it will not allow him to say his namaz. Its all a big mystry and may we never get to see another such experience in all our lives.

that must've been a real scary experience for your son..
a good thing, the friend could help out..
i've seen people being possessed - and it is really scary, even a girl so small can put a fight with so many much bigger men... and if the 'bad spirit' is really 'strong stubborn', they'll 'stay' much longer.. or come (to possess) repeatedly...
we believe that spirits exists.. and since we cant see them.. sometimes, we might 'bump into' them accidentally.. or do things that might upsets the spirit.. then they will 'disturb' you...
and since we also cannot hear them - but they can hear you... you should always watch what you say, especially if you're in a strange or unfamiliar place - what you say, how you say things can also upset the spirits..
anyhow.. i hope your son has recovered..

Good heavens, this is news to me. Im sure there must be ever so many spirits roaming around, and we are bound to bang into one or the other. This is really scary. How can we protect ourselves from this. We say our daily prayers, and yet these spirits can have control over us, is just awful news. Yes, thanks, th ough he is shaken, he is recovering.

There are many stories like this and there are many theories about them. I don't have any personal experience and I am sure it would be scary. Still, it's good that the boy was revived and recovered. Good luck.

Oh yes, my boy was terrified and so was I. Thankfully, the boy who got possessed is ok now, th ough no one has yet told him about it. Maybe his parents will be told. We live and learn.

Hi Kety, similar case I heard about my freind's son when he was in class 6th(now he is married). Though I was never present at the time when ghost entered his body(thankfully), but I would hear from other people that many times it happened with him in school, he would faint and all that. Parents took them to so many Tantrik's for treatment. But thank god, he was fully cured one day, now he is happily married and a has a oneyear old son.

This repeated possession is one thing that amazes me. Is our soul not strong enough to prevent another from entering its abode. It must have been terrible for the p arents as well as the kid. Thank God he is well and cheers for all the tantriks who risk their lives for the likes of us.

good to know that your son's friend had recover and so with your son. they were so strong in handling that situation. my officemates nephew too is claimed being posses by bad spirit, right now the child has not fully recovered since last month my friend told me that the child was posses again. the child is too young to handle the situation,we pitty on her and to the family. although they already ask spiritual help from the church...i believe we need more prayers to keep these children safe from this ghost.

It musst be an awful experience for the child as well as the parents. Poor kid. Yes, one must ask for help from all religions. Try the church f irst as you are Christians. If it does not work, I would suggest you try any religion to cure the child. Ive heard that Muslims have a lot of people who exort ghost. Anything to see the child well and happy. Id try all religions to see the ch ild normal again. Yes, we need more prayers too. My heart goes out to that child. all the best.

Oh, it's really shocked. In past I just saw this from TV or heard from mother as a story. I never met this case before and never heard from others. I even doubt whether ghost exist or not. But now I think it does exist. Oh...

Oh yes, even when I used to recount stories to my son, he would laugh it off, but now he too has started believing in ghost. He said it was an awful experience, very creepy and something you only believe when you see it.
