What is Distortion?
When most people think of evil, they imagine a being—a shadowy figure with intent to harm, something with eyes and teeth bent on destruction. Distortion is not that.
Distortion is not a monster.
It is not a villain with a name.
It is not even personal.
Distortion is a parasitic frequency. It doesn’t have a body, but it attaches itself to ours. It doesn’t have a voice, but it echoes through our thoughts. It doesn’t live a life of its own, but it weaves itself through ours.
The Nature of Distortion
Distortion survives by bending truth just enough that we stop questioning it. It starts as the faintest static—a subtle break in coherence, a hairline crack in clarity. From there, it multiplies.
In our minds, it shows up as confusion, self-doubt, looping thoughts.
In our emotions, it erupts as envy, jealousy, rage, or fear.
In our systems, it hides in greed, exploitation, oppression, and false hierarchies.
Distortion doesn’t create anything new. It feeds on what already exists. Like a parasite, it requires a host. Its host is us—our attention, our energy, our unexamined agreements.
The Goal of Distortion
If distortion had a goal, it would be control—control of the current, the flow, the way energy moves through our lives. It doesn’t hate us. It doesn’t love us. It simply wants to feed.
Its strategies are subtle:
To confuse: If you can’t see clearly, you won’t move clearly.
To divide: If you turn against yourself or others, coherence weakens.
To exhaust: If you’re drained, you can’t remember your own frequency.
To normalize: If distortion feels ordinary, no one questions it.
Its greatest victory is when you don’t even notice it’s there.
Everyday Examples of Distortion
This isn’t just theory. Distortion is present in the smallest details of our lives:
Tripping over your own feet: There isn’t a being trying to sabotage you. It’s the build-up of distortion in your body, tugging at your coherence until your steps fumble.
Losing your words: Distortion can make it nearly impossible to speak. When the words do come, they tangle and collapse on the way out. That isn’t you failing—it’s distortion interrupting the current of expression.
Road rage: A calm, reasonable person suddenly becomes a speeding menace, overcome with fury. What happened? Distortion found an opening. It had been sitting quietly, waiting for release. Once it spills out, it spreads—cutting someone off leads to another person’s anger, and the parasitic current multiplies, infecting driver after driver.
These aren’t random accidents of human nature. They are symptoms of distortion—its way of embedding itself, spreading, and maintaining control.
Why It Matters
Distortion doesn’t need to be demonized. It is not an enemy in the dark. It is a frequency that disrupts coherence, dissonance woven into the current of our lives.
The cure is not battle—it’s remembrance. When we return to truth, clarity, peace, and love, distortion weakens. It cannot thrive where coherence is strong.
The power lies in naming it, in noticing it, and in choosing to re-align.
