For a long time now I have wondered just what black magic is. Why do people do it and what exactly do they get out of it... having visited Pakistan
One thing I realised was that in most of these cases the victims are targeted by people they know or even worse, someone they were related to. The main reasons for causing distress being marital problems, money, land, and any other petty disputes. Despite the fact that they are Muslims they continue to follow this old practice approaching a black magic practitioner who then helps them to attack certain people using evil forces.
As little as i knew on this topic it was not until i began my research that i realised this was not just a phenomena that affected people from South Asia. It is in fact a worldwide problem and not just something that has recently come to light but has been a part of certain societies for centuries. An article i came across explained how Black Magic roots back to the Celts in 700 BC, being extremely spitiual and talented their practices and beliefs are the same as those of pagans. After reading this article it also came to my attention that there is not simply just one type of magic, but there are many types based on colours all which have different outcomes.
As well as black there is white, green and grey magic. Black being the most destructive, white being the positive one which is based around society and human needs, green based upon nature and grey replaces all of them and is particular to its practitioner.
I also came across another interesting video showing black magic in Indonesia. It was amazing to see how popular this culture is and how one practitioner kijoh kobodo has made an empire out of it. He uses magic to help those who come to him with problems and also tells the presenter how he has used black magic to help kill. Astonishingly he also claimed politcians used black magic to harm and kill rivals. This video proves just how openly black magic is used and how those who promote it and practice are in fact successfully making a business out of it. Kijoh Kobodo has built a massive mansion and owns a range of sports cars.
