#49: Why Trauma Controls Your Life | Possessed by Ancient Programs
Why does trauma seem to control your life?
It’s not just emotional… trauma fragments the self, hijacks the mind, and keeps us trapped in repeating roles: Victim, Villain, and Rescuer.
Have you ever noticed how chaos can unfold right in front of us…. obvious, undeniable, yet most people don’t see it?
Why do entire groups follow leaders who are clearly unwell, even destructive?
And how can so many remain blind to the unraveling around them?
The easy answers are politics, corruption, and psychology. But what if the deeper truth is possession? Not in the horror-movie sense, but in the energetic, psychological, and spiritual sense.
Why Trauma Controls Your Life is a conversation about possession, fragmentation, and sovereignty. It’s about why we get trapped in roles we never chose, and how to step back into the freedom that was always ours.
The Triangle We All Play In
I was listening to a lecture recently from Professor Jiang Xueqin (Predictive History). He was speaking about mythology, leadership, and how rulers were shaped through ritual and programming.
He said something that struck me: leaders are not always chosen for their wisdom or integrity, but for their ability to dissociate, to split themselves so completely that they can hold multiple roles at once: the victim, the victimizer, and the rescuer.
And in that moment, I saw it clearly. The Trauma Triangle.
The Victim, who feels powerless.
The Victimizer, who tries to control.
The Rescuer, who tries to fix what’s outside so they don’t feel what’s inside.
These aren’t just psychological masks. They are spiritual fractures. And when we fragment, we become possessed by programs, archetypes, and forces bigger than us.
This isn’t just history. This is now.
Possession and the Studio of the Self
I often imagine the body as a studio. You are the building. The soul is the artist. Each room is a part of your life, filled with memories and stories.
But when trauma strikes, some rooms are abandoned. The ego refuses to enter. They feel too dark, too haunted.
Possession lives in those empty rooms. And yet, the moment you bring your true presence back into them, the haunting dissolves. Light burns the vampire. Wholeness dissolves the program.
That’s what healing really is: not soothing symptoms, not rearranging furniture, but soul retrieval. The return of presence.
The Mind as Bridge, The Soul as Seat
This is where Patanjali comes in. Thousands of years ago, he wrote that the goal of yoga is to still the fluctuations of the mind. Because when the mind fragments, the Self is possessed.
Possessed by what? By stories. By trauma. By cultural programming. By emotional energy we never learned to hold.
The mind is the bridge between body and spirit. But if that bridge is weak or distracted, we become lived by something else. Not as choice, but as compulsion.
Breaking the Spell
To break the spell is to remember that the soul seat is yours.
We stop playing the roles.
We step out of the triangle.
We sit back down in the center.
Healing is not about perfection. It’s about saying: “I am willing to be with the part of me I once left behind.”
The moment you remember, the program begins to dissolve. The spell breaks. You are no longer possessed — you are present.
Closing Reflection
The program runs on forgetting. Soul return begins with remembering.
You are not the victim.
You are not the rescuer.
You are not the villain.
You are the one who remembers
