UNDERSTANDING THE PHENOMEMOLOGY OF SRA/DID
has never been touched by evil, kept by God, and identified with God's seed. I believe that this essence and identity is also the most protected by the system of alters within the client's mind. This essence and identity is also the most hated by Satan. Whatever this essence is, it is not an alter.
