Weakness

Paimon's weaknesses are: (1) ritual of acknowledging his dignity — the decisive canonical weakness — angers if summoned without a ritual sufficiently acknowledging his dignity; (2) East-West direction — the decisive canonical weakness — the conjuror must accurately align the East-West direction; (3) incense — the decisive canonical weakness — must burn appropriate incense (frankincense) for him to show favor; (4) God's name — the decisive canonical weakness — powerless before God's name and Christ's authority like all other demons; (5) binding of summoning — must obey the conjuror's command; (6) binding of Solomon's seal — controlled by Solomon's seal; (7) binding of the sacred domain — the decisive canon; (8) binding of 200 legions — the decisive canon of the responsibility of commanding 200 legions. The decisive canonical finale is the decisive mythological canon of being one of the 72 demons bound by Solomon's seal, eternally responding to the conjuror's call.
