Rudolf Steiner spoke of this idea some time ago, who lived from 1861-1925.
“There are beings in the spiritual realms for whom anxiety and fear emanating from human beings offer welcome food. When humans have no anxiety and fear, then these creatures starve.” declared Steiner. “These beings are hostile towards humanity …and they become more and more powerful (from this negative human energy nutrition) …launching cruel attacks on human beings.”
“Therefore,” says Steiner, “it is above all necessary… that the person who enters the spiritual world overcomes fear, feelings of helplessness, despair and anxiety. These are exactly the feelings that belong to contemporary culture and materialism because it estranges people from the spiritual world… to evoke hopelessness and fear of the unknown in people, thereby calling up the above mentioned hostile forces against them.”
If you want to know how close to the truth he was, consider this: how precious few actually heard of Rudolf Steiner and why.
