Oh, I also asked other people more knowledgable and expirienced than me in the realm of Mysticism/Shamanism. There is a structure and purpose underlying expiriences like mine that greatly differs from schiztophrenic delusions.
Who do you believe these voices were?
Do you find the Christian notion that they are demons offensive or are you open to that idea?
