My story

Catholic priest running the parish of Bystrany. Specialized in the ministry of freeing people.

At the beginning of my story there is simple curiosity that led me to explore the mystery of magician tricks. After that, I wanted to learn how to hypnotize people. I had a chance to do that soon after 1989, when religious literature returned to be available on the market. Among sold books I also saw something about mysticism, meditation, hypnosis, and occultism. I saved neither my money nor my time and I started to read one book after another, until I thought “everything was clear”. I just missed one thing: experience.

The occasion came relatively soon. One night, together with some other friends, we were watching a story in TV, in the house of a friend of ours. I was getting bored and I sat down in a corner, close to the door. I closed my eyes and started to meditate. Unfortunately I was not meditating over God and the Holy Scriptures. I was thinking that through "the forces of the subconscious" I can hypnotize a friend who was sitting next to me and was leaning on the door. I didn't tell anything to anybody. Everything was going on in my interior. After a relatively long while I opened my eyes and I remarked that the “given friend” was sleeping. It may be probably still a normal thing. So I touched and move her to wake her up. But she didn’t wake up. No reactions from her. She was in a sort of unconscious state. I got scared and immediately returned to my place. I didn't want other people to notice anything. I resumed meditation in the opposite order, because I wanted to wake her up. Fortunately I was successful and she woke up.

This experience did not discourage me. On the contrary, it boosted me even more. I convinced this friend to have regular hypnosis séances with me. After a number of meetings I managed to hypnotize her just by counting up to ten. It worked even outside, when it was cold. It also worked when she didn't want it. She could not resist to my influence. Once she didn’t want to come to a meeting. I just told her to come soon. I told her that she will be rushing. On the next day, at agreed time, she ran to me and she simply observed that she was not able to hinder her own legs, as they "started to move by themselves".

When I told her that I will visit her during the night (in a paranormal or astral way – if you prefer), she heard my voice and she saw a sort of flying light in her room; although I was not physically present there. I was having meditation in my home.br> I also tried “scheduling meditations” some days before meeting. When the scheduled time came, she started to be hypnotized. One day I gave her a cassette with relaxing suggestions and she “got asleep“. Her sister managed to wake her up only after smacking her in her face.

The more you eat, the hungrier you are. So I started to make something worse than hypnosis. I started to make white magic and to work with “magnetism”. Later on, I did fortune telling with a pendulum, mummy therapy, Silva method and rhabdomancy. It was a spiral effect of mysteries that captured me more and more. I also did such bad things like influencing other people without them to be conscious, e.g. in the bus (I stole them their “energy”). I also influenced teachers at school, because I didn't want them to ask me questions. I did the same thing with the ticket controller in the train. I made him believe that he already checked my ticket. But in fact I had no ticket at all.

My preparation at school resided in reading the matter and in repeating it at alpha level. During the lessons of civil education we often recited lectures before classmates; I spoke to them for long time about the mysteries of the magic. I think they were interested in it, because they asked our teacher to give me one more hour to talk about that stuff.

I was getting more and more conceited. I was aware of the fact that I could secretly influence people and manipulate them. Nevertheless, some of my plans failed. Sometimes I faced a sort of “counterforce“. It was weird. I would think it can be a normal thing, if even those people worked with the magic and act against me. But they didn't do any magic at all.

One night, everything got clear. I tried to pray at alpha level. I was not able to do it

It was like hurting your head to a wall. It was the same feeling I had with those persons I failed to influence through occult practices. I wondered what kind of power it can be, if I am not able to overwhelm it. It was a power that stopped me and I couldn't go any further. Then, in my interior I understood that it was God’s power. Interestingly enough, I was standing on the opposite side – I was against God. I was negatively surprised, because I grown up as a Christian. I had been always persuaded that I was developing hidden skills God embedded into me. Now I know that until that time I never asked what God’s will is. I always tried to fulfil only my will. br> High school final exams were getting closer. I didn't have enough time for hypnotic séances and other similar experiences. I was getting nervous. I was eager to do those things again. It was a sort of psychical attack due to my temporary abstinence from occultism. I realized that I was suffering from occultism-addiction.

Fortunately I found a book by prof. Vrablec “Renewal in the Holy Ghost”. In this book I found a prayer to the Holy Ghost and I started to pray. In my soul I felt something new, beautiful, and liberating. It was something full of life and it brought me plenty of joy. It was something completely different than that I experienced during concentration exercises or during emptying meditations according to yoga and oriental religions.

Guided by the Spirit, I entered a priest seminar. Although I had stopped practicing hypnosis and magic, I cannot say that I got completely rid of if. During the first year I joined a course called Renovations in the Holy Spirit. Here we also studied themes such as occultism. Part of this theme was: renouncing to these practices. Older classmates leading this course explained me a lot of things. So I made my historical decision: after several years I definitively put an end to my erring in the world of occultism. I finished my theology studies with the following diploma work: Parapsychology from the standpoint of Christianity. Through this work I wanted to definitively end one phase of my life and at the same time to pay my debt for other people, in order to help them not make the same mistakes.

But God had another plan for me. As a young priest I met people who suffered from different physical and spiritual problems which began after visiting fortune tellers, healers or other people practicing magic. They complained that they are considered as mentally ill, although according to psychiatrists they were completely healthy. I believed in what they said, I understood them, but I didn't know how to help them. I had to find a lot of advice, study, pray, and also try.

When these people renounced to occult practices and entrusted their lives to Jesus, their nightmare began to disappear, they stopped hearing voices or seeing spirits, they were freed from internal pressures and negative feelings.

So God gradually led me to my ministry of liberation. Today I thank Him for everything I experienced and for the fact that I can help other people who got attracted and scared by the mysterious and frugal services of magic and occultism.
