Have you ever dabbled in satanism or "black magic"?

Tanzan and Ekido were once traveling together down a muddy road. A heavy rain was still falling.
Coming around a bend, they met a lovely girl in a silk kimono and sash, unable to cross the intersection.
"Come on, girl" said Tanzan at once. Lifting her in his arms, he carried her over the mud.
Ekido did not speak again until that night when they reached a lodging temple. Then he no longer could restrain himself. "We monks don't go near females," he told Tanzan, "especially not young and lovely ones. It is dangerous. Why did you do that?"
"I left the girl there," said Tanzan. "Are you still carrying her?"
A soldier named Nobushige came to Hakuin, and asked: "Is there really a paradise and a hell?"
"Who are you?" inquired Hakuin.
"I am a samurai," the warrior replied.
"You, a soldier!" exclaimed Hakuin. "What kind of ruler would have you as his guard? Your face looks like that of a beggar."
Nobushige became so angry that he began to draw his sword, but Hakuin continued: "So you have a sword! Your weapon is probably much too dull to cut off my head."
As Nobushige drew his sword Hakuin remarked: "Here open the gates of hell!"
At these words the samurai, perceiving the master's discipline, sheathed his sword and bowed.
"Here open the gates of paradise," said Hakuin.

I did some very amateurish calling. I was already hearing things and I wanted a divine answer to all my religious questions
are there rituals or self trance or hypnotic methods that would allow me to get in contact with these things in the mind and calm them or put them in their proper place?

Yes. A very simple method is called the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. It clears both the immediate physical environment, as well as the psyche, from negative influences. It is sort of like a spiritual broom that sweeps away spiritually unwanted dust.
I would recommend that you not attempt to contact these forces, nor hold any conversations with them, should they attempt to initiate one.
The Pentagram Ritual is the basis of White Magick, and is purifying. Instructions for performing it can be read here. To view a demo of the ritual by Frater I.A., see here.
