manychallenges:you might think is normal until you would encounter the worst of them all oga believe it or not sleep paralysis to an extent is a spiritual attack why bcoz most times u would be awake but when that spirit comes around u, it subdues u to been half unconscious and starts dealing with you. there was a time when I do have that experience, morning, afternoon even at nights but it too much I had to look for a remedy. most times when that thing wants to happen I would have this feeling that something strange just entered my room..........this days wen ever I have such feelings I rush up asap and grab my Angel Micheal and spray it like a mad man......the spirit go Japa. 5 Likes |

Seandisputed: I agree with you. The last time I experienced it was 2weeks ago. As I was about to sleep they came. I shouted Jesu several times but my voice wasn't coming out. It's 100% spiritual. 3 Likes |

There is nothing spiritual about it. I repeat nothing spiritual at all about it. While you are sleeping your body goes through lots of phases while you fall asleep, deeply asleep and waking up. During this period your brain is the driver because you are not conscious. Sleep paralysis is 100% natural just the way your breathing in and out is natural. Take your time to get relevant information online about the causes and how it can be managed. Lots of studies has been done in that respect. Cheers. As for people saying it's spiritual, the lowest form any human can get to is loosing ability to FIND OUT WHY the whites has not loosed theirs unfortunately majority of us in Africa has lost that ability, that's why we blame everything on witches, wizards, devil, spiritual husband and wife(this one dey surprise me till tomorrow). The whole universe is governed by principles that the creator has put in place, if you find out, if you obey it, it works for you. If you didn't it affects you as well. If you see or experience something you don't understand, the best thing to do is to find out why before blaming it on none existing spirit somewhere. On a lighter note, our fellow humans in the other side of the world are planning on how to colonise Mars and moon(what some of us worship, your fellow humans want to go and colonise it and possibly Terra form it, are you not ashamed?). There is someone somewhere in America working on something that will address all the brain issues we fast and pray about here day and night including insanity(madness), we are here wasting hours that should be used for research and development on prayers and fasting for something we can find solution to, what a waste of time! It's called Neuralink take time to read about it. It will help guide your thoughts going forward. Africa wake up and start doing research, left for Africans anything that happens is amu wa olorun as the Yoruba's will say and I can bet with my balls that till now malaria will still be killing us and we will say it's the wish of God. I have more to say but till some other time. |

O mehn that shii messed me up back then in sch. It all started when my then ex girlfriend appeared in my dream holding a pistol "akaodu" she chased me till i woke up an could not move any part of my body except my head i screamed "Mummy mu oooh" and passd out next i woke up in a hospital with my parents & the doc staring at me. The doc said i had malaria & i was discharged after a week, since then i have been fine. I don't think it's spiritual although we all need God. Have a lovely week. 1 Like |

Bro, it is totally spiritual. It happened to me several times back then. Almost everyday, sometime in the middle of night, morning before I woke up. I later change place of sleeping with my younger brother and move to another place. That very night around 12am it happen also to my younger brother who never experience such in same room. And it still happen to me later that same night. I explained all this to my mum who slept with my brother on the same account. I am a Catholic, I believed in rosary. From that day, I started wearing rosary on my neck before bed. I observed that whenever I put on rosary on my neck, I will not experience such. Anyday I forget it will come. The most painful aspect of it is that it do leave marks like finger stretch marks on my arms... Bros Pray, don't mind anyone tagging it nature or physical. I totally believed is spiritual. 1 Like |

Science will try to prove to you that such event is normal. But, some things are far beyond what science can explain. Does science have an explanation to live events we forsee in dreams which come to pass in the future? When you hear very ugly experiences from people concerning this topic, you will stop saying it's natural. Na pikin wey no know medicine dey call am vegetable. 1 Like |

TooMuchStuff: You are right Science 'attempts' explaining most phenomenal humanity faces but CANNOT explain all,that science ignore the existence and operations of wicked spirits whose leader is Satan,doesn't deny the existence of same entities. Sleep paralysis are in phases,there comes that stage of such experience that the controlling remote is NOT in the hands of natural sleep disorder but actively pressed and controlled by invisible evil spirits. Science is biased,a times,it wants to empirically explain,logicalise and rationalize all satanic operations in human life to 'normal daily life biology and chemistry.The intent to blind the undiscerning minds from John 10 vs 10 Which is a theif came to kill,steal and destroy.How does he carry out the above,projects fear,manipulates the mind,enslave the soul,torment and torture to a surrendering point yet the victim MUST not know (he,Satan is behind it;why? So he wouldn't be cast out in the name of Jesus!) Mehn,we know no man after the flesh ,but after the spirit of truth,cast out any suspicious moves and appearances of darkness and live a fear free life,experiencing God's faithfulness daily! ..........

[/quote] Come, my friend. Lemme show you some facebook groups where you find whites who do not reason the way you tag them to reason. So you think the whites do not believe in witches, wizards, devil, demons? You think the whites do not know what SPIRITUALITY means or they do not so much believe in it? Do you know what an OUIJA Board is? My guy, life itself is spiritual. No dull am. The whites you see as gods know how to solve their problems spiritually but you will keep seeing them as gods cos you chose to. They know where they finds answers and inspirations. 3 Likes |

kingxsamz: Did the 'spiritual' caused Nigeria problem in the first place? When you're voting PDP and APC here and there, did you allow the 'spiritual' into your choices? Nigeria's problem was never spiritual and can never be. "Spiritual" is not the minister in charge of NDDC it is human being named Akpabio. Compare Akpabio's personal environment to what Niger Delta region environment is. Spiritual doesn't fund Bokoharam but human being. Spiritual doesn't fuel Southern Kaduna crises but human. Spiritual didn't close our border without adequate provisions for citizens daily upkeep and the price of staple foods skyrockets.... Spiritual does not increase fuel price in Nigeria. Spiritual isn't CBN Governor My friend, spiritual got nothing to do with our problem in this country but human beings..... Until we rise up and speak against this oppressive people...

Slurity: You're correct! Anytime I sleep facing up, I experience nightmares or a very awkward dream. It has always been that way from childhood. To an extent I'm not even surprised anymore. I just wake up from the nightmare and I'm like "oh. I slept facing up again" then change my position and sleep jehjeh |

manychallenges:bros there's nothing spiritual about it u ever stressed ur body by denying it some sleep when needed or think a lot that period, keeping ur brain awake while ur body is shutting down for sleep, so ur body did something like emergency shutdown while ur brain is still awake, hope u understand me. |
Re: Sleep Paralysis: Is It Natural Or Spiritual? by Myer(m): 7:52am On Aug 30, 2020 |
manychallenges: Here in lies the cycle of ignorant supersticions being recycled till it becomes believable hearsay. It's natural and that explains why virtually everyone experiences it at some point. Ofcos if you choose to believe it's spiritual, your mind would likewise make it so. No one knows for sure what causes sleep paralysis or its implications. As a kid just like anyone from a christian background, I was told to scream Jesus whenever I experienced it. I would struggle for seconds to mutter the name Jesus and it would stop. Interestingly as an adult I don't even say a word anymore, I just wait for it to pass. So it's a matter of understanding it. OP, I believe it's a natural phenomenon and you simply need to relax for the few seconds when it happens and it'll pass. There are times you could experience it often. And there are times you won't even experience it for years. Please you're not being raped in your sleep. That cracked me up. |

How can you explain you eyes being open, but u can't feel any part of ur body, like a force pinning u down and u are lying face up, with heavy breeze blowing in from the window while the bulb is on, why does it happen when one is sleeping alone. They are more to this than meets the eye. Pray, fast and pray again, the world is both scientific and spiritual. |
