In the spiritual world, people often acquire knowledge and think they understand things, but they often lack a fundamental understanding. Sometimes, what they believe is a god is actually the spirit of a monk, or the spirit of an animal (a rather high-class animal). This is quite common. Even if they possess power, it can be frightening if they are angered. However, having power doesn't necessarily mean they have knowledge. The world of power and the world of enlightenment are somewhat different. Power, in a simplified example, is like physical strength. Physical strength is power in the physical dimension, while spiritual power is having energy in dimensions such as the ether or astral plane. The power in the lower dimensions is, in a sense, different from the power in the next dimension. Even though dimensions are continuous or overlapping, and the world is a multi-dimensional, multi-layered structure, there are varying intensities of vibrations, and there are boundaries between dimensions. Furthermore, while the energy of the lower dimensions is temporarily necessary to reach the higher dimensions, it is no longer needed once you ascend. For example, a person may have a muscular physique, but that doesn't necessarily mean they have spiritual power. However, to supplement a point where there might be a misunderstanding, since dimensions overlap, strengthening the physical body can also strengthen the higher dimensions. Therefore, generally, for humans who have a physical body in this world, there is a correlation between physical strength and spiritual energy, and strengthening the body is somewhat meaningful. However, what I am saying here is that if you don't have a physical body, you cannot have energy in the higher spiritual dimensions. In other words, even if there is a being with energy in the spiritual dimension, they usually don't understand the higher dimensions. Therefore, even if there is an invisible being with power, whether that being is enlightened is a separate issue. In many cases, cults are led by such powerful beings, and followers are given power by those beings. However, in most cases, this does not lead to a high level of enlightenment. However, even if it is disproportionate, if it is somewhat higher than the original self, it might be a good thing.

If you can communicate with humans, even if it is the spirit of an animal, it may be a higher-class spirit, and it may be more advanced than some primitive and aggressive humans. Therefore, not all animal spirits are bad. There are many mischievous lower spirits, but on the other hand, there are also simply high-class animal spirits and high-class spirits from extraterrestrial origins. Regardless, it depends on the being itself. When you interact with something, the law of vibrations applies, and you interact with beings with similar or slightly different vibrations. Therefore, by understanding that it is disproportionate, and by discarding the prejudice of "animal spirit or whatever," and by considering that they are conscious beings and high-class spirits, regardless of their appearance, it is not necessarily a bad thing. The fundamental thing is to cherish your own spiritual growth, and you don't need to worry too much about anything else.

Now, I think that perhaps it might be okay not to worry about spirits or cosmic entities until a certain point. I think it's more important to focus on developing one's own spirituality first, and that might ultimately be the quickest path.
