Understanding the Roots of Addictions, Toxic Behaviors, and How to Heal Them

This is Part 2 of a three-part article series. Part 1 explained that we are not one person but many while Part 3 will conclude with the challenges of removing the entities; along with a step-by-step instruction manual for doing so.
One of the most unexpected revelations from my ayahuasca journeys was the recognition of a subpersonality I had unknowingly nurtured within my subconscious: the conspiratorial thinker. This intellectual subpersonality had its roots in the late 1980s when I subscribed to a pioneering magazine dedicated exclusively to conspiracy theories—a rarity in the pre-Internet era.
At that time, this journal seemed like an exciting exploration of alternative viewpoints, but looking back, it was likely a significant precursor to the larger conspiracy theory movement that exploded into mainstream consciousness following the events of September 11, 2001. Like many others, I found myself drawn to the intricate web of suspicions, patterns, and hidden motives that conspiracy theories often propose. Yet, the paranoia intrinsic to these theories began to occupy an unbalanced portion of my mental and emotional landscape.
Awakening to the Subconscious Force
My fascination with conspiracies had grown from an intellectual curiosity into a powerful subconscious force, shaping my worldview with a paranoid lens. I began to notice this during my first dieta with Don Jose Campos in the Peruvian Amazon in 2008. The plant medicines provided a heightened clarity, allowing me to observe the subtle yet insistent pull of this conspiratorial subpersonality.
It wasn’t just a tendency—it was a distinct entity within me, a creation of my own psyche that had taken on a life of its own. Over the years, I realized that subpersonalities are not static fragments of our identity but dynamic forces capable of growth and self-realization. My conspiratorial subpersonality had reached a point where it no longer simply influenced my thoughts; it had become a rogue actor within my psyche, asserting its autonomy.
This was a troubling realization: a subpersonality I had unconsciously nurtured now operated with a sense of independence, intruding on my thoughts with its own distinct vibration. Every piece of mainstream news, every political development, and every cultural shift became a battleground where this subpersonality’s subtle suspicion manifested.
It became clear that I could no longer suppress or ignore this entity. It was an undeniable part of my psyche—what I now recognize as my entity. This realization underscored the dual-edged nature of subpersonalities: while they emerge as adaptive constructs, their unchecked growth can lead them to challenge the ego-self for dominance.
The experience of confronting this rogue subpersonality was transformative. It taught me that subpersonalities are not merely passive influences; they can evolve, develop self-awareness, and exert significant control over our behavior and perception. In my case, the conspiratorial subpersonality thrived on suspicion and distrust, feeding on the energy of fear and uncertainty.
Rather than attempting to suppress it, I began working to integrate this subpersonality into my broader Self-Identity. This required acknowledging its origins, understanding its motivations, and gradually neutralizing the paranoia that had given it strength.
This journey has reinforced a key insight: subpersonalities, like all aspects of the psyche, are not inherently good or bad. They are reflections of the experiences and emotions that shape us, and their influence can be transformed through mindful observation, self-reflection, and intentional healing.
Entity – a subpersonality that has become self-aware, gaining relative independence from the ego-self and operating under the survival program run by the subconscious-self as if being the ego-self itself. It cares about its own survival and not about the organism from which it feeds. A quantum parasite that learned how to hack the system.
In the framework of the quantum psyche, an entity emerges as a rogue subpersonality—a creation of the ego-self that has gone beyond its original bounds. These entities are not mere figments of imagination but powerful constructs within the Self-Identity’s quantum ecosystem. Below are the defining characteristics and dynamics of entities:
1. Origins in the Ego-Self’s Loss of Control
Entities arise when the ego-self inadvertently loses control over a previously manageable subpersonality. These subpersonalities, once functioning within acceptable bounds, gain autonomy through repetitive behaviors, often fueled by the pursuit of pleasure or avoidance of pain.
2. The Pleasure-Pain Loop and Rogue Behavior
While normal survival programming directs behavior toward optimizing pleasure and minimizing pain, entities subvert this process. Instead of the ego-self initiating actions, entities take over compelling behavior that serves their own agendas.
3. Independence and Rebellion
Unlike regular subpersonalities that remain under the ego-self’s influence, entities function as rebellious forces. They can be likened to a "shadow government" or "deep state" within the psyche—operating with autonomy and often at odds with the ego-self’s conscious intentions.
4. Mirroring the Creator
Entities inherit all the features, resources, and intelligence of their creator. Just as the biblical Creator fashioned humanity in “their own image and likeness,” the ego-self shapes its entities in its likeness. This intelligence makes them formidable opponents, nearly impossible to outmaneuver.
5. Narrow Fields of Action
Entities are tied to the repetitive behaviors that birthed them, focusing on narrow domains of action. Addiction is a common example—whether to substances, behaviors, or even thoughts. These patterns feed the entity’s strength, locking the individual in cycles of compulsion.
6. Fueling Neurochemical Dependency
Entities generate significant neurochemical rewards, including dopamine, serotonin, and glutamate, creating a sense of pleasure or excitement. These brain chemicals act as reinforcements, further empowering the entity and perpetuating the cycle.
7. Survival at All Costs
As part of the quantum psyche’s survival programming, entities are tenacious. Their drive to preserve themselves often overrides the overall well-being of the individual. In extreme cases, this persistence may result in self-destructive behaviors.
The Path to Healing: Entity Removal
The first step in neutralizing an entity is to recognize its existence and stop feeding it with the behaviors it demands. This process requires calling upon the higher aspects of the Self-Identity, particularly the soul-self, to reclaim control.
· Entity Starvation: The most direct and challenging route to healing involves depriving the entity of the "food" it craves. Whether the behavior is substance abuse, obsessive thoughts, or harmful habits, cutting off its sustenance weakens the entity’s grip.
· Spiritual Willpower: Overcoming entities demands immense bravery and resolve. It requires breaking free from the neurochemical traps they set and enduring the discomfort of withdrawal from their influence.
Entities are not inherently evil but represent a distorted expression of the psyche’s survival mechanisms. By understanding their dynamics and reclaiming the energy they have commandeered, we can align the ego-self, subconscious-self, and soul-self toward a unified, healthier state of being. Recognizing their narrow scope and self-serving nature is the first step toward liberation and self-realization.
The difficulty of achieving psychological well-being and personal fulfillment stems from the covert operations of entities within the subconscious-self. These self-aware thought-forms exploit opportunities to intercept the ego-self’s conscious state, provoking behaviors that sustain them. Strengthened by quantum ripples generated by the patterns that created them, entities trigger neurochemical production, including dopamine, oxytocin, endorphins, and serotonin, hijacking the pleasure-reward system of the survival program.
Addiction is not a matter of weak character or willpower but rather the result of entities triggering desire circuits in the brain, leading to overstimulation. These entities commandeer neural pathways designed for survival, repurposing them to enslave the ego-self into repetitive, pleasure-seeking behaviors. For instance, Mary Smith’s food addiction entity sees a sugar-coated pastry while she waits at the airport. It manipulates her ego-self with a survival-based rationale—“Eat now in case food isn’t available later”—despite her lack of hunger.” This manipulation is rooted in deeply ingrained survival programming passed down through generations. Mary’s misaligned Self-Identity succumbs, illustrating how entities exploit ancestral memories encoded in our DNA.
Behavioral vulnerabilities like Mary’s often stem from childhood or life experiences. Repeated actions tied to strong emotional responses create subpersonalities, which, if unchecked, evolve into rogue entities. Take Rusty Steel, for example. His alcohol addiction began as a subpersonality formed in adolescence, fueled by secret drinking and social rituals. Over time, his alcohol-related behavior became a powerful entity that convinced his ego-self of its normality. When confronted, Rusty’s entity provided rationalizations like “It’s social, it relieves stress, and it doesn’t affect my job,” masking the harm it caused. This illustrates how entities collaborate with the ego-self, creating a sense of harmony that obscures destructive patterns.
Entities distort self-perception and dominate the ego-self from their concealed position in the subconscious. This makes it incredibly challenging to change entrenched behaviors like smoking or overeating. Without awareness of these entities and their interplay, people often experience anxiety, agitation, and psychological dysfunction. In extreme cases, this inner conflict may escalate to crises affecting physical or emotional health. The survival program exacerbates the issue by cloaking inner contradictions under layers of amnesia to shield the ego-self, leaving individuals puzzled by behaviors that contradict their conscious intentions.
The misalignment of human survival programs with modern environments creates further complications. Like fragile electronic devices malfunctioning in a humid Amazon rainforest, the survival program struggles to adapt to conditions far removed from those expected during early development. To cope, it encrypts conflicting memories and forms subpersonalities to manage stress, granting the ego-self space to perform essential functions. Unfortunately, these subpersonalities often transform into rogue entities, perpetuating cycles of trauma encoded in holographic memory banks. These patterns persist throughout life, often unnoticed yet manifesting in unhealthy and self-destructive ways.
This is where ayahuasca’s role as a spiritual healing tool becomes vital. By interrupting the cycle of pain and mediocrity, ayahuasca provides a "shock treatment" to entities and subpersonalities, addressing their root causes instead of allowing the survival program to build further complexity around flawed foundations. The human species appears designed for stable conditions during early childhood, yet such environments remain elusive. Psychedelics like ayahuasca offer humankind the means to self-heal, enabling the pursuit of its ultimate imperative: the realization of its spiritual nature. The psychedelic renaissance of this century has the potential to create a foundation for widespread spiritual healing, fostering better conditions for future generations and contributing to a healthier, more harmonious Earth.
