Exorcism (from Greek ἐξορκισμός, exorkismós “binding by oath“) is the religious or spiritual practice of evicting demons or other spiritual entities from a person, or an area, that is believed to be possessed. Depending on the spiritual beliefs of the exorcist, this may be done by causing the entity to swear an oath, performing an elaborate ritual, or simply by commanding it to depart in the name of a higher power. In XIX century psychiatry there was the concept of “demonopathy“ - the same as “demonomania“ and meant a special form of monomania, in which the patient is obsessed with the ideas of one or more demons. Exorcism is also known in Islam as “exile to the genie“; the rite is very similar to the Christian one. M_ ƉΣɅƉ BɅGƉɅƉ بغداد الميت - † CΛIN † V_ Shutter Island
