In Muslim tradition, a Djinn is a spirit often capable of assuming human or animal form and exercising supernatural influence over people. It is like a poltergeist as far as the activity, though a poltergeist is generally developed from a 'thought-form manifestation' that may or may not be associated with an existing earthbound entity. According to legend, the Djinn were the first inhabitants of this world, where they lived for thousands of years before humanity arrived. To make room for humans, angels took the Djinn out of this world and placed them in a dimension that parallels our own. There they stay hidden from our view. They can see and interact with us, but we have difficulty seeing them. They are cloaked in mystery, and it suits their covert purpose. The goal of most Djinn is to retake this world, which they feel rightfully belongs to them. To succeed, they must make humanity give up stewardship of this reality. They are accomplishing this by stealth and disguise. They have great powers and plenty of time, for they live for centuries. Shape-shifting Djinn may be responsible for many forms of paranormal phenomena and experiences, such as UFOs, shadow people, ghosts, poltergeists, and demonic possession. In such ways, they gain access to us that enables them to steal our life force and information about us and to manipulate and use us without revealing their true form and purpose. These negative experiences are on the rise. Please comment on the accounts and let me know your opinions.
