I always thought Eulogy was about the death of Bill Hicks - a sort of anger-phase song, since I hear Maynard and Bill were friends...

anyway I too was reminded of the whole idea of body thetons and or whatever they are called in scientology. The idea of parasites and evil spirits is something that is quite common I think, both in psychedelics and indigenous religions. We could also think of these things as psychological constructs that by virtue of our own life have a life of their own - as in: a self perpetuating thought patterns. Or energetic pattern. Not sure how they would transmit from one host to the other, but I think it's possible to infect others with positivity or negativity, so it must work somehow.

How do we get rid of these patterns or beings? By changing something.

What I don't get is the phase shift thing... What kind of wave are we talking about here?
