SPIRITS AND PROTECTION

A Personal View

What are `ghosts`? A simple enough question but very hard to actually add depth to.
A simple way would best to describe them as a spiritual entity derived from the soul of a dead person.

They abound in fiction and folklore as energies that `haunt` specific locations either frequently or on special anniversaries, or they are an apparition energy that appears to have no conscience thought and repeat the same sequence of events time after time with no detour from the same basic activity.

Almost like a repeat programme on TV. These events are described as `residual` energies, and are often `soaked` into the building or location in which they occur. They are unaware of our presence, and are best described as a mirror in history. Typical examples are the scenesof battle, murder, suicide or a brutal act.

Spiritual activity is further subdivided into different `unrealities`that the spirit represents or believes that they actually does not know that they have passed over, and continue to resume living a life they once knew.

In this circumstance they will see all of their life possessions and home as they once were when they lived there. For all intents and purposes, they cannot believe that their life has changed.
In these circumstances, they might actually see you as the `ghost`.
I have experienced this particular phenomena, and quite often they are more frightened of us!

But equally, there are those who cannot move on because of some uncompleted act or tragedy, or those they are being held back by another more powerful spiritual energy that wants to keep them.
A common fallacy in spiritual activity is that the spirit can only be communicated by using a time served `ritual` of some semi-religious  incantation that the spirit will respond or react to.

An example, “I come to you in love and light”, or using some Christian based prayer or `Wiccan` ceremony to create a contact.
Okay, if this is your belief, and it makes you feel safe then there is no harm, but seriously ask yourself, would you respond to this if you were in spirit? In most cases, the answer must be `No`. I have used similar terminology in the past, but realised on contact it makes very little difference.

A religious prayer would be fine if you were dealing with a person who held a religious discipline or view in life, but in many examples I have experienced, this type of activity looks good for show but has very little to do with the subject in hand. Quite often I speak tospirits in a way I would speak to somebody on a `one to one` basis.They seem to react more positively this way than by speaking to them insemi-patronising tones which most of us living folk would findoffensive.

Another point is that we as living people are mostly making assumptions based upon our experiences of what we would expect ghosts to be.
Remember, these people in spirit have seen or `felt` an existence on the other side, and it is not all angels or the spiritual light of goodness that motivates them. They have their own reasons for their chosen existence. Having said that, you should talk and treat them with respect, after all, they can do things to you that you might not agree with, and in some cases if you really offend them they can hurt you physically.
I have personally been thrown across the floor, pushed or even jabbed in the ribs.
I have also seen, smelt and even tasted things which defy logical explanation but nevertheless were quite `real` to me at the time. So do not try to provoke or patronise, but actually treat them as anotherperson. If you do that, you stand a much better opportunity to makecontact and lessen the opportunity for some hidden assault that catches you unexpectedly.

A positive state of mind is also important. If you have many problems or worries or are ill, you won't be positively charged in dealing with the paranormal. It may cause your natural psychic defences to lower,and in some cases allow you to be temporarily `taken over` in spirit,or make you feel incredibly ill.
So there are dangers, but the wonderful opportunity in making contact exists for everyone, you just have to make yourself aware of the basic rules.

Protection:

Before starting any investigation, make you or the group `positively charged` in thought as well as action. Don't take things for granted or become blaze`with the prevailing spiritual activity. I have seen on occasion's people acting this way, and quite frankly it can cause problems if you do not address the situation with some degree of respect.
Meditation or `channelling` our energy is quite important before you attempt any form of communication.
The more receptive you are, the better the opportunity in making contact. If you treat the whole exercise as rubbish, you will receive nothing in return or create an action you may well regret.
We all have the natural and inherent ability to be a medium, but it requires a discipline to achieve it. Practise for half an hour a dayand your meditation skills will improve.
Remember, the paranormal world as we understand it exists parallel to the world we live in. And importantly, it isn't a world that is based purely or entirely on God or religion; it is the next level of experience that will become us all one day.

Another type of haunting is the active spirit which returns or exists at some specific location known to them in life. This could be their home, or a place they enjoyed working or relaxing in. These spirits can either be a blessing in disguise as they may look after you and thehouse, but worse they might feel that you are in their house without permission and they want you out. This type of activity is the more common variety of house haunting, and one that investigators are frequently called into deal with.
