Comparative Technical Analysis of Exorcism Across Religious Systems

A Compiled Deep Research Report

By Mikah Smith · Schizo Studios

This publication is a rigorous, non-sensational, cross-disciplinary examination of exorcism as it appears across major world religions and spiritual systems. Rather than approaching the subject through fear, myth, or entertainment, this work treats exorcism as a structured ritual technology—one rooted in authority, ethics, symbolism, sound, and community.

Drawing from Christian, Islamic, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, animist, and ancient Near Eastern traditions, this report identifies the shared structural constants that appear across cultures, maps differing models of possession, and categorizes ritual tools by function rather than theology. The result is a clear, comparative framework that highlights how and why exorcistic rites function—without privileging one belief system over another.

The book concludes with a non-sectarian, consent-based, symbolic hybrid rite, designed strictly for academic, cultural, and informational study. This integrated model emphasizes restoration, psychological safety, ethical constraints, and post-rite care, reflecting the universal safeguards present in legitimate traditions.

What You’ll Find Inside

• A taxonomy of possession models (spiritual, karmic, psychological, ecological)

• Ritual tools organized by sonic, material, symbolic, and social function

• Universal ethical constraints recognized across religions

• A fully documented hybrid rite presented as symbolic analysis, not instruction

Important Note

This work is not a manual, guide, or authorization to perform exorcisms or rituals. It is provided solely for research, education, and comparative study, with explicit emphasis on consent, mental-health awareness, and harm prevention.

Ideal For

• Scholars, researchers, and students of theology or religious studies

• Anthropologists, historians, and comparative religion readers

• Clinicians and ethicists exploring religion–psychology overlap

• Serious spiritual practitioners seeking understanding—not spectacle
