In the spiritual world, people often acquire knowledge and think they understand things, but there are often fundamental misunderstandings. Sometimes, what people think 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 have power, it's important to be careful not to anger them, but having power doesn't necessarily mean they have knowledge. The world of power and the world of enlightenment are somewhat different. Power, in a simple analogy, is like physical strength. Physical strength is power in the physical dimension, while spiritual power is energy in dimensions like the ether or astral plane. The power in the lower dimensions is essentially different from the power in the next dimension. Although dimensions are continuous or overlapping, the world is a multi-dimensional, multi-layered structure. There are varying intensities of vibrations, and there are boundaries between dimensions. To reach higher dimensions, the energy from the lower dimensions is temporarily needed, but once you reach the higher dimension, the energy from the lower dimension is no longer necessary. For example, a person who is physically strong may or may not have spiritual power. However, there is a nuance that needs to be clarified: since dimensions overlap, if the physical body becomes stronger, the higher dimensions also become stronger. Generally, for humans who have a physical body in this world, there is a correlation between physical strength and spiritual energy, so training the body is somewhat meaningful. However, what I'm saying here is that if you don't have a physical body, you can't have energy in the higher spiritual dimension. 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's disproportionate, if it's somewhat higher than the original self, it might be a good thing.

If you can communicate with humans, even if it's the spirit of an animal, a high-class spirit might be more advanced than the average primitive, aggressive human. So, not all animal spirits are bad. There are many mischievous low-level spirits, but on the other hand, there are also simply high-class animal spirits and high-class spirits from extraterrestrial origins. It all depends on the being. When you interact with something, the law of vibration applies, and you interact with beings with similar or slightly different vibrations. Therefore, it's important to be aware of the limitations and discard the prejudice of "animal spirit or whatever." If you understand that even if their appearance is different, they are conscious beings and high-class spirits, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Ultimately, the most important thing is to focus on your own spiritual growth, and you don't need to worry too much about other things.

Now, I think that perhaps it's not necessary 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, and that might be the quickest path.
