Demon summoning, anyone?

Recently I've taken an interest in the Occult, and have several friends who share the same interest.

I'm tempted to summon a demon or demonic deity of some kind. I know of texts and works that specify ways I might go about summoning a variety of demons, but I'm not sure which is a suitable candidate.

Anybody here who can advise a newbie meddler on which demon to incite? Hopefully something harmless and simple - nothing dangerous please (although summoning demons can be seen as a dangerous practice).

If the entity is lesser-known, I'd also appreciate tips on how to go about summoning said entity, their characteristics, and any other info I should know - thanks!


EDIT: Not sure if this is in the right board - if it isn't, could someone kindly redirect me?

Anyone who truly believes in demons would not summon one unless they were willing to give up their soul.

if you manage to find one you will understand.

I certainly wont help, and strongly suggest that no one else does either.

Give up their soul? I've read accounts of successful summonings of harmless entities... no soul required. I'm just here for any opinions on the matter, really

If you summon a demon you clearly state your stance on good vs evil. once you go 'black' you can never come back.

Im giving you my advice based on personal experience, dont mess with the darkside.

I would very much like to know how this works out for you or anyone else who claims to have raised demons. Specifically, I'd like to know their names, whom they serve, what they look like, how they 'became' a demon, etc.

I'll admit up front that I don't believe in them. But it's an interesting subject.

jprophet420 is right,don't try it. If you actually ARE stupid enough to try it and should you ask help the Demon shall ask for something in return (probably you're soul). To actually summon a demon oyu have to be able to control the electromagnetic energy he/she generates which means a lot of meditation. So don't dabble in these kinds of things.

Try this link you may find it useful.

Demonology

There are many other sites just search for them. Let us know your results!

I have a feeling if you are successful in your attempt, you will come to regret it. At first it will probably seem ok and cool, and then you will unknowingly "invite" it into you. Then you're pretty muched screwed.

I hope this thread is a prank. I can tell you from experience they are real & nobody in their right mind would purposefully summon them. They only come to steal, kill & destroy, nothing else. Is this a joke or are you self-destructive? Or do you seek power? If you're just curious about spirituality at least pray to God about what you're trying to achieve by doing this and wait for Him to answer. Any entity you could "summon" would only come to do you harm. They can take any form and Satan is the father of lies, so they'll lie to you for sure. Turn back now.

So, Trappestine did it work or not? Curious I haven't seen a reply to the post yet.

Im just curious as to why one would summon a demon? What do you get out of it?? Its not something I would do, It just does not sit well with my being. The thought makes me uneasy and nervous. WHat could a demon do for a human?? It is not their entire being to hate us, mislead us? Good luck! You are a braver soul than me.

Let him try and who knows. Have you tried or are you afraid of it? Most people seem to be, I cant say I seen a demon or anything evil like most people believe via religion or in a dream. I want to see for once a person who is completely open to this succeed and tell us the experience instead of "no no no don't do it"!

Let him try it might not be all that bad at least for him maybe not for you for some reason.

i don't believe in god or heaven so there fore i don't believe in demons i believe in spirits in a way. i think go for it nothing will happen

I agree lets see what happens with the posts like other posts there is no proof in anything just speculation.

I'd also appreciate tips on how to go about summoning said entity,
their characteristics, and any other info I should know

I'm curious why you specifically want to summon a demon, and not 'something else.' You might read this article. It doesn't directly address your questions...but it might offer useful perspective.

The idea of a demon wanting your soul in return for a favour is so rare that it is laughable. Read any given demonic text. They don't usually deman a soul. Demons are not brainless servants of Satan like most Christians would have you believe. They are also not all evil. First off, good and evil are relative, not absolute. What is considered good by some (missionary work for example), just might be considered evil by others (destruction of the religious cultures of countless peoples). Just keep in mind the motives of the demon/spirit you choose to summon.

Also, decide what you want to offer the spirit. Be precise and clear about your intentions and the terms of your contract. When deciding on what to offer the spirit consider motivation. Why should a non-physical entity not of this plane of existance care about helping you, listening to you, or even granting an audience with you? Make sure you don't waste their time.

One last piece of advice: Don't summon something you can't handle. Demons and other spirits are not always malevalent and are often more reasonable than most humans. Just be polite but not cowardly or timid and you should be fine.

Demons are also never honest. They mostly want a human body to take over at times to feed their own lust and gluttony.
Others posting here have not fought them or seen demons as I have.
The lost souls of hungry ghosts are one group but there are far, far worse.
Be advised the Sons of Darkness are older than this world and where here long before it.
These are gargoyles and they have destroyed other worlds of light. It is foolish in the extreme to attract them. It is wiser to seek the seed of light within you by practices of Chi-Kung or the like (Ophanim). Shalom.

how about taking all this away from the christian vs. occult context of "summoning demons" and "the evil occult"...

...to a more light concept of "communicating with discarnate entities"? Communication with non-incarnate entities is a normal practice and there is nothing dangerous about it at all...unless that doesnt sound sensationalistic or dark enough for you.

Sorry folks - have been busy recently and didn't have time to check replies. Not that I was expecting any

As of yet I still haven't decided which demon to invoke, but I have at least 4 others who would be interested in looking into it for me.

As for some of you who have said there will be consequences, of course there will be as there are with any kind of meddling in the occult. But take for example the demon Vassago (from that one huge long thread that ended up going nowhere). All accounts of Vassago state that he may be mischievous or playful, yet harmless - no soul required to summon.

I think that's the sort of demon I wish to get a hold of.

And I do not necessarily want to "get anything" out of summoning a demon in any way - not for power, not to lay waste to my enemies or anything like that - really just out of curiosity and informational purposes. Asking how the being came to exist, general questions about its purpose or being in relation to humankind and other demons, things of that nature.

Once I've found a suitable candidate, materials and practices needed for summoning, and gathered up my other willing invokers, I'll make an attempt - not sure how long it will take before everything's ready though.

@daniel; Yes, that's exactly what I've heard too - neutral parties in most cases. I don't really think I have too much to worry about if I research enough into the entity I eventually choose.

@Skyfloating; Any suggestions then? I'm interested in what you might have to say.

Keep us posted on the entity you select and when you make the attempt to do so. Study up so you don't have a failed attempt and get back to us. If you dont you either decided not to attempt or you did and were destroyed. I highly doubt the second statement though. I do think if you really want it to happen you truly must believe or it wont, kinda like seeing ghosts and the like.
