How To Get Rid Of Ghosts
If you fear ghosts, then you need to read the articles Protection From Ghosts and Fear Of
Ghosts, first. Most ghosts do not need gotten rid of, but actually
need Ghost Rescue. If you think you have a ghost but are not sure, then we suggest you read how to tell if you have a ghost, if you believe you have a troubled ghost, with you or your family, remain calm and try to open up to understanding the ghost communications that may be happening around you. Often, a ghost simply wants to be recognized as existing - wanting you to know it is still alive before it will move on towards the light. Many times, people are shocked to find out it is someone they know and love! Maybe the ghost, who is simply another person, really wants to
deliver a message to someone before feeling released to move towards the light unto
peace, joy and love.
If by chance you feel you have a negative spirit or energy in your home (a ghost that
frightens you, is physically abusive or ghosts that are sexually perverse) (enlightened,
positive spirits or kind ghosts will not be bothersome, if one asks to not be bothered -
and sets the rules), try to handle negative entities & ghosts in this manner:
1) Remain unemotional and firm when dealing with a negative ghost, as they will feed
off of your fear and make themselves stronger and more powerful (much of this is
simply in our mind - I do not believe they have any power over us, except what we give
them). Just know you are in control, and speak out loud for the ghost or spirit to leave;
and that they are not welcome in your home. You have nothing to fear, for fear is
created in the mind. Do this firmly, yet with love.
2) Tell the spirit or ghost to seek the light, and that its physical body has perished and
it's time (and good) to leave this physical realm. Tell negative ghosts that they will see
other spirits (loved ones) who are called to direct and guide them; and will be treated
with love and forgiveness no matter what they've done. Ghosts need to know that
they can be affecting others negatively, and that it is time for them to move on in life
and unto peace and enjoyment.
3) If they are worried about punishment, tell them that they're not sent to an eternal
"hell," but will be shown their lives and are made to experience what they have done;
so they can understand those things and how they have impacted themselves and
others. They will always be treated with love and will be helped to move beyond any
self-created guilt and condemnation - through forgiveness, especially forgiveness of
themselves. Be very firm in letting them know it's good for them, and time for them to
go. Keep telling them this until you feel they've gone to the light, the realm of spirit -
this will help them move on. Light is not to be feared for it is love, peace and truth.
Darkness is "lack of understanding" and negative - false.
Always be firm, non-fearing, unemotional and deal with negative ghosts strongly, yet
in love. You are always in control and are not powerless. Some people like to re-visit
a cleansed house by going back into all of the rooms with a pleasant incense such as
lavender while inviting all loving, protecting, positive spirits into the home. You may
end the ritual by lighting a white candle and setting it on a table to burn for a bit to
"seal" the ritual.
Further Explanation
At Angels & Ghosts, we don't believe in "demons"
(although there are negative spirits,
which are people out there in the spirit realm who are just the same negative people
they were on earth ), but we do believe in ghosts. Some ghosts will never
communicate with you, but appear to be residual energy left over from a former event
(maybe traumatic) and somehow recorded onto the atmosphere of a location. These
do not go away and do not react with the present day or people. True ghosts,
however, are simply earth-bound spirits, that have decided to stay attached to the
earth realm, rather than moving into the higher, spiritual realms. There are several
reasons why this may occur - the most common is that some dis-embodied people (or
ghosts) may just want to be recognized as still being alive. Speak to them;
acknowledge the ghosts you suspect are trying to make contact with you. Treat them
as human beings, for they are.
Sometimes ghosts don't quite understand that their physical body is gone; it wasn't
really who they were anyway...all of us are spirits. Many times, ghosts may be afraid
to move on and into the light where a life review will occur, believing they may be
punished (such as in an eternal hell, which is a man-created idea...hell is a state of
mind, such as a person who has passed being afraid to move on toward the light) for
not being good enough while in the physical world. Or perhaps, they still enjoy the
people and places here on earth and don't want to leave; preferring to remain close to
those they know who are still in physical bodies. Some ghosts simply will not move on
due to former addictions, attachments, earthly pleasures, or what they deem as
"familiar." Ghosts can have unfinished business here on earth and may need help
getting a message across to someone, or an item found that was hidden by them.
Keep in mind that a few ghosts can be very negative; while other spirits may just be
visiting and have positive feelings and even messages for us - e.g. loved ones, spirit
guides and angels. Remain open-minded, trying to understand what the ghost may
be trying to communicate with you. Maybe then, you can help the troubled spirit move
forward in life and out of a self-created prison called hell.
This may sound shocking, but ghosts can possess people. Some mistake this for
demons, but it is really dis-embodied human spirits co-inhabiting another's physical
body. These sometimes tend to be spirits addicted to earthly pleasures. Those
possessed tend to be spiritually dead, with all focus being outwardly. Marked signs
are personality changes, addictions, depression, etc could point to one or more
possessing spirits. This is not to say that all addictions, depressions and mental
illnesses are caused by ghost possession.
Spirit Rescue
Learn how to spirit rescue earthbound spirits.
About a third of the United States population believes in the existence of ghosts. This could be because many are hopeful that their lives will indeed continue on after death. Yet, there are those who believe in ghosts because they have had a personal paranormal experience that has confirmed for them that ghosts do in fact exist. Many ask themselves, “What happens when we die?” None of us want to see our earthly existence come to an end, so we curiously explore the various ideas and ghost theories found within our own specific society. For years, we decided to explore the historical,
religious and spiritual beliefs regarding ghosts and spirits by examining the evidence we could collect from around the world that could possibly give us insight into ghosts and spirits.
This task has been easy to do given the rise of the Internet, and the ever-increasing rise in computer video and audio technologies. Contrast this with the keen interest the public
evidenced by popular television programs and movies, and we found ourselves possessing quite a bit of evidence from which to work with. Over the past five years, we were able to collect and post ghost stories, angel stories, ghost videos, ghost pictures, angel pictures and the like – all potential evidence of the existence of spirits. For us, it wasn’t about proving ghosts exist, but more an attempt to try and discern what is happening in the spirit realm. In that spirit (pun intended), we worked to then try and
communicate with ghosts and spirits utilizing EVP and the ghost box. This has allowed us to give some results with what we believe is happening on the other side of death – call it the spirit realm.
Working with the ghost box has enabled easier two-way communication with both ghosts and spirits, giving us some interesting understanding as to what is occurring on the other side of the grave. Many of the messages we have recorded from ghosts are what we call “help messages,” and often are just numerous “help me” pleas. Amazingly, it seems spirits (those who come from the light) are cleansed spirits who are benevolent and devoted to helping those who are lost and hurting. Often, recordings would reveal spirits telling ghosts to “speak up” when communicating with us, ever encouraging them to listen to us and go to the light. We have recorded these benevolent spirits giving us confirmation that ghosts we were working with did indeed cross over to the light, as well. If the ghosts listen, they can easily be helped. Having someone on the other side with the ghost always seems to assist in the spirit rescue.
Ghosts: Lost People
Our description of ghosts does sometimes vary from others it seems (see Ghost Theories), as we see ghosts as being lost and hurting people – earthbound spirits who are in need of our help. For the purpose of understanding spirit rescue, ghosts are disembodied human spirits; people who have elected to remain with those of us living, having refused to head to the light upon the death of their physical bodies. When we say “light,” we are describing the tunnel of light experience described within the majority of near death experiences. From that perspective, ghosts are spirits, but spirits that have chosen to remain earthbound; some willingly, while others unwittingly. We have found that ghosts are hurting, disincarnate people, who need help in transitioning from this realm to the next. Why do ghosts remain here with those of us in bodies? Most choose to stay here, reluctant to progress in their life journey, due to fear. The reasons why a person becomes a “ghost” of a person by hiding among the living can vary quite a bit, but all reasons for remaining earthbound are rooted in fear. It is fear that causes emotional turmoil, mistaken thinking, and at times, desperation for relief. Not all ghosts are nice, but most are not negative, either. No matter what personality a ghost may manifest, the root cause of the person’s mistaken thinking will always be found to be fear; for fear is based upon past experience, and being false, always appears to be truth. Spirit rescue means to help the ghost identify the fear so the person communicating with the lost person can help undo the mistaken thinking. In doing so, the earthbound spirit can begin to understand their condition and what must be done to be freed from this fallen mindset. Consequently, helping ghosts so they move on unto the light can be difficult and requires patience. It needs to be equated with counseling, similar to speaking with a psychiatrist, perhaps. Sometimes people will be irrational, as fear drives them to anger, hatred, and emotional traumas of all sorts, including feelings of guilt, depression, anxiety, doubt and worry. We learned that asking for help from benevolent spirits (call them angels, spirit guides, family, etc) really strengthens the effectiveness of the process. Often, ghosts are longing to be with family members who have already passed, and just the mentioning of say a deceased parent, sibling, or grandparent seems to break some of the fear that holds the lost spirit captive. We tried to approach spirit rescue from the perspective that people who have died and remain behind most likely have similar wants and desires as those of us in bodies, with only personalities of the people varying. Of course intellects will vary, as well as strength of emotions from person to person. Learning to find the humanity within the hurting person on the other side is what helps to free the hurting spirit, a stark contrast to fearing ghosts as being evil or demonic (as taught by the uneducated and often religious). Before I describe the steps I use during spirit rescue, I must explain that working with someone sensitive to spirit, or developing one’s own spiritual sensitivity is necessary in working towards freeing spirits. Practice hearing answers to questions within your being by first learning to quiet the mind. This is best practiced through meditation. If you are able to practice and work with a ghost box, this can also help provide another tool in your tool belt to assist spirits. Some spirit rescues are done by people adept at working with ghost boxes solely. Whatever the method, the results will be the same if fear is being removed and the ghost is set free and unto the light.
Spirit Rescue: How to Rescue Spirits
As mentioned previously, the most effective way to help ghosts is not to command them to go to the light, but to reason with them concerning why they have chosen to remain here, while educating them as to where they should be. The following spirit rescue walk-through is to be used by those who have developed their own personal connection with the spirit realm, or in conjunction with a talented medium: First, I think it best to make sure a ghost is aware that their body has died, but yet they are still alive and alright. I like to do this, as some ghosts seem to be panicked not knowing what is going on. Comprehending the death of our own body is important as well as understanding that our spirit lives on and is incorruptible. Acknowledge that you know the ghost is there and that you are trying to hear the lost spirit and of course help their situation. Many times ghosts just want to be acknowledged as it proves to them that they are still alive and well, and not hallucinating or dreaming. You may at times be surprised to find that while you are explaining such things to earthbound spirits in order to try and help them, other spirits from the light will also be communicating with them as well. It’s sort of like a tag team-type effort from both sides! Secondly, explain that the light is where the lost ghost should be and not here on Earth. I describe the light as the place some call heaven – where intense love, joy and peace will be felt. The light should be known to be a place where all pain goes away, no punishment exists, and the life-journey will continue. Remaining behind has stopped their life-journey from moving forward, as the lost spirit is effectively “stuck” in the past by the power of the mind. If communicating with the ghost of a child, try describing the light as a fun place to be. With all ghosts, try and understand the reason behind the spirit remaining here, seeking to understand their frame of mind and assisting them to resolve issues. Is there unfinished business? Is there a message that needs to be shared with the living from the deceased? Is there fear of punishment or something else that keeps them from going to the light? Confronting the past and helping to vanquish fears (which may just be expressed as concerns, doubts, worries, anger, etc) is what sets people free. Assure the lost spirit that they may of course return and visit earthly loved ones from time to time. Lastly, once you reach a point where the spirit is ready to move beyond this realm and unto the next, it is time to make the transition as easy as possible. I try and let them know that the spirits with me currently are there to help guide them and mean them no harm. Further explain to the lost soul that their loved ones are right there with them also, as it seems to help the transition and set the expectation. This is not an untruth, as loved ones will be there and most likely already are with the lost spirit. We have found that often loved ones in spirit try to reach those whom are trapped here, but many times are unsuccessful. The ghost may or may not be aware of their presence. Still, make them aware of their loved ones by asking the ghost to concentrate on family or friends who passed before them; doing so with the expectancy of those loved ones hearing them and reuniting with them. This process seems essential in removing the fear of moving further into the light alone. At this point I like to have them imagine that they are closing their eyes, and as they do so, I tell them a small light appears behind them. As they continue to think about their loved ones, I tell them that light is growing larger and warmer behind them– nothing to fear, but something that feels inviting and full of love. Now I ask the ghost to imagine that same light wrapping them in warmth, a blanket of love, peace and joy; telling them their loved ones are in that light, as well. I then ask the ghost to keep their eyes closed and turn around reaching out to their loved ones. Upon doing so, I ask that they open their eyes and they will see their loved one(s) holding their hands. Then tell the ghost to proceed further into the light with loved ones and in peace. The Spirited Conclusion:
Ghosts and spirits are around us all. Even though spirits exist on another plane, they choose to interact with the living for either our help (ghosts), or to help us (spirits from the light, such as angels, spirit guides, etc). Both interact with all of us more than most comprehend and are not limited to living in what we may deem as haunted locations. Ghosts and spirits have no boundaries with respect to where they must be, or who they may visit. All of us are one with each other, whether with a body or without. True healing can only come to us when we recognize the truth regarding our oneness with all. -LC
How To Tell If You Have A Ghost
Ever think to yourself, “Is my place haunted? Do I have a ghost?” Sure, it is important to know what
a ghost and a haunting is, especially when one begins to wonder, “How do I know if I have a ghost
or not?” First begin by ruling out all explainable phenomena. Is it truly paranormal, in other words,
extra ordinary? Can the strange activity be explained, if one takes a closer look at the evidence?
As human beings, our minds have a tendency to work over time, and thus create situations that are
very believable, and seemingly paranormal, at times. Look for natural causes of any strange
events, and be a little skeptical. This will keep one level-headed and calm while trying to conclude
whether a place is haunted or not. A rational, but open mind is the best tool in determining if the
source of a possible haunting is indeed ghostly.
What are ghosts and spirits?
The two words “ghosts” and “spirits” have been used inter-changeably for hundreds of years.
Ghost is from the Anglo-Saxon gast, while spirit is from the Latin spiritus. As language developed,
the word ghost came to being used in describing the appearing of a recognizable person appearing
after their death; while a spirit came to be understood as the manifestation of an unknown person.
Ghost hunters on the other hand, will look at ghosts and spirits differently. In the ghost hunting
community, ghosts would be disembodied people who are “stuck” in this physical world, typically due
to trauma or unfinished business here on earth. They have not moved on into the light after the
death of their physical body, and are still attached to people, things or events that occurred in the
past. The key word with this is past, as the past seems to hold them here, instead of looking to the
future which would cause them to move beyond their prior physical life. For whatever reason, they
cannot let go of the earthly realm, and either need direction or are looking for assistance in
delivering a message or fixing a situation. This ghostly activity is known as an intelligent haunting.
Furthermore, it should be mentioned that some ghosts are non-intelligent, meaning they are only
residual energy of a prior event and not interactive. A ghostly action, such as walking down a hall
will occur over and over, whether someone is present or not. This type of ghost manifestation also
known as an unintelligent haunting will not interact with the physical world. In contrast, a spirit, to
most ghost hunters, represents someone who has moved beyond death, into the light, having had
their life review and now understands they are spirit. Issues of their former physical existence have
been worked through or are being worked through, and peace, love and joy are being
experienced. Often, all of us are watched over by spirits on the other side, who want to comfort us,
guide us and observe our lives. These spirits typically are loved ones, family, and friends – some
are known as spirit guides and angels.
How to tell if you have a ghost.
The following are some descriptions of ghostly activity, and thus are common phenomena found in
hauntings. It is important to not be afraid and understand that a ghost is a person who is most likely
wanting to be recognized for assistance. The following phenomena are not all-inclusive:
1) Cold spots. The manifestation of a ghost requires energy, and thus the area could be cold from
the ghost using the energy of a specific location.
2) Electrical disturbances, such as flickering lights and radios turning off and on.
3) Movement of physical objects, such as doors.
4) Items missing or moved.
5) Water turning off and on.
6) Goosebumps, chills, the feeling that you are being watched, or touched.
7) Sounds, such as foot steps, music, voices, whispers, rapping, banging, something being
dropped, etc.
8) Balls or orbs of light that appear and float around.
9) Shadows moving about a room or in the corner of one’s eye.
10) Odd behavior from a pet. Animals are very in tune with spirits around them.
11) Unexplained or known fragrances of the deceased.
12) Levitating objects.
13) Mists, or vapors that appear.
What does a ghost look like?
Ghosts can and do manifest physically in various forms. It is not understood why the forms vary,
but perhaps it is due to the condition of the soul of the entity. Ghosts appear as:
1) Orbs - These balls of light can float or move at rapid speed. Some believe these to be the first
or most basic manifestation of a ghost…perhaps the soul of a person.
2) Mists, Vapors, Ectoplasm - This form appears as smoke or fog, and is believed to be the
manifestation of spirit.
3) Shadow People - Known as “dark shadows” or “black ectoplasm,” these ghosts will often be seen
moving about. It is possible that the darkness represents a condition of the soul not yet
understood, such as immaturity, lack of understanding or knowledge.
4) Apparition - This is the full-bodied, non-vaporous appearance of a disembodied person’s spirit,
and is very rare. Typically described as “see-through.”
Ghosts can manifest anywhere. They may appear more at night, because they most likely cannot
manifest around a lot of people. It is surmised that the energy it takes to manifest in the physical
realm, may be depleted when a ghost is around a crowd of people. Although ghosts may appear
during day or night, the night could provide a time when less people are active, and may afford a
time when all types of ghosts could appear more readily. Others believe that intelligent ghosts only
manifest around people, either through use of their energy, or to communicate with this world. A
ghost is a subtle energy in most cases, but can vary in intensity.
What to do with a ghost.
If one has a ghost, then the obvious question is, “What do I do with the ghost?” Maybe a better
question should be, “How can I help a ghost?” Finding common ground and comfort in the fact that
a ghost is only a disembodied human being, seek to speak with the ghost. Most ghosts are lost,
and looking for simple direction. Follow your instincts and try and understand if there is any left
over, unfinished business that may help the ghost move on. Ask the ghost person openly, how can
I help? Be not afraid to tell the ghost that you know they are there, that you recognize this and that
they should understand that their physical body has died. Let them know this. Tell the ghost, that
there is nothing to fear, and that they should move towards and into the light, where peace, love,
joy, friends and loved ones await. Often times, a ghost doesn’t understand that they have passed
on. Sometimes a simple conversation will free the troubled soul, and bring peace to the situation.
Ghosts often will take simple instruction, such as, “Stop banging the pans at night.” Many times the
ghost just wants someone to know that they are there, but if a ghost is troublesome, remember you
are in control. If a ghost will not head to the light, then demand the troubled spirit leave. This is
your place, and you don’t have to accept visitors.
Some ghosts are just looking to be recognized, until someone hears their story. Other ghosts are in
dire need to deliver a message to a loved one. It is not uncommon for relatives of the deceased to
receive a phone call from the other side of the grave, with a parting, “I love you.” The voice is
typically immediately recognized by the loved one, and the message is usually short but clear.
When phone records are checked, in most cases there is simply no record of the call at all. These
are known as, “phantom phone calls.” Ghosts, though disembodied, are not without means. An
intelligent ghost will get your attention if need be, whether through sounds, sight, smell or even
touch.
Ghosts and spirits may use symbolic language and be perceived as a "knowing
within," or even make use of the physical environment to try and get our attention. Some of the reasons for communication from the dead might be to let one know that they are OK; maybe to warn one of danger; perhaps to offer sound direction and guidance for a situation that is of concern; or maybe to simply say, "Hello." In any case, know that those on the other side are not "dead." They are disembodied, however. We have included some examples of what one may experience as communication from the dead (ghost voices of those from the other side). One may:
1) See them...as an apparition.
2) Hear them...for example making noises around the home.
3) Smell them...a specific scent that reminds one of them.
4) Receive gifts that one may know was from them.
5) Sense or feel their presence as chills or goose bumps.
6) Sense their touch or maybe a hug.
7) Experience visions or dreams of the deceased.
8) Experience electrical disturbances such as lights blinking, telephones ringing
for no reason, doorbells ringing, etc.
9) See impressions on furniture or bed as if someone is (or was) sitting there.
10) View photographic anomalies - orbs, ectoplasm and apparitions appearing in
pictures.
11) Have missing items, such as books, jewelry, personal items.
12) See objects moving in the home.
13) Experience strange coincidences or symbols - such as thinking of the
deceased person and coming into contact with things or people that remind one
of them. Thoughts other than your own are ghost voices.
14) Watch balls of light energy visibly moving in the home called "orbs."
15) Receive a phone call from the dead.
Spirit Possession
I believe we are finding that what many call “demons” are in fact what many people have termed as
shadow ghosts (dark shadows). A shadow ghost is often seen out of one's peripheral vision. They
are earthbound, dis-embodied people, who have not moved on unto the light, their loved ones and
life-review (all of which is part of a "cleansing" process). Darkness does not necessarily mean a
ghost is "bad;" darkness (as Jesus also spoke of) is indicative of a lack of understanding, ignorance,
being lost, and of course negativity. Some "dark" spirits can be very negative and troublesome, but
so can some of the people around us that have bodies. We believe that some ghosts (people) have
learned that they can co-inhabit another person’s body. This is called, “spirit possession,” but it
would be better to term it “ghost possession.” Ghosts have been found to possess people for
several reasons: by accident; to assist the one whom they have possessed; to continue
experiencing physical life; physical addictions ; attachments to earthly
possessions or loved ones; trauma – not even understanding they have died (because they are still
alive), or even to menace or harm another for seemingly “the fun of it.”
"…we must consider that the bindings between people and ghosts might be strong, and that the
exorcised ghosts may come back and possess these people again. The patient must work at not
letting the ghost back in.” Emotional bindings between people and ghosts are like rubber bands
that draw the ghost back into the patient's body. Those emotional currents must be removed by the
patient. That's why, in some cases, the patient also requires my psychotherapy. Hell exists only in
their minds -- there is no such place in the non-material world - but the mind makes it true for them.
That kind of psychotherapy takes some time, and is rarely easy, as some ghosts are completely
unaware of their situation -- especially when they died under tragic or traumatic circumstances.
During my thirty years practice, I've not encountered such entities. Instead, I've discovered that the
attributes describing demons or the devil derive from ghosts in the human body."
- Wanda Pratnicka , author of Possessed by Ghosts: Exorcisms in the 21 Century
Wanda’s experiences parallel what Jesus taught about demons (spirits) leaving a person’s body and
then later returning:
“When an unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds
none. Then he says, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he comes back,
he finds it empty, swept, and garnished. Then he goes, and takes with himself seven other spirits
more bad natured than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last [state] of that man is
worse than the first...” - Matthew 12:43-45
What can we learn from all of this? Ghosts are simply people who need assistance in moving
beyond the prison that their own mind has created - assistance not unlike what a psychologist might
do to help a person who is still in their own body. We are told in 1 Peter 3:19 that Jesus “preached
to the spirits in prison.” If people were condemned to hell eternally, he would never have sought to
help them. We, too, need to help those who are trapped in the prison of their own mind, by
counseling these "unclean spirits" to:
1) not be afraid to move on with their lives - for better things await them;
2) understand that their bodies have died, though they are still alive in the present time;
3) not fear eternal punishment (in hell), for it does not exist;
4) meet loved ones who await them, by turning toward the light and experiencing peace, joy and
love (which they most definitely need).
Loved ones - spirits - await these lost people and need our help to assist them in moving beyond
being earthbound. Maybe it takes assistance from both planes to help some of the departed.
Edith Fiore, a noted psychologist and author of the book The Unquiet Dead, has worked with
patients for twenty years whom she at first thought had multiple personalities or even past lives.
She soon discovered there were more than one person or spirit within the body of some of her
patients. Edith learned to explain to the possessing spirit that they needed to move on, that loved
ones were awaiting and the promise of light, love and peace. The ghost possessing the body of
another would learn through her that their life journey could continue if they headed unto the light
and loved ones. She never encountered a demon in twenty years of work and is a highly regarded
author and authority on ghost possession.
Perhaps two accounts of Jesus in the bible give us important keys to understanding the spirit world.
Jesus stated to Nathanael, “You shall see angels ascending and descending upon the son of man,”
and we are told that James, Peter and John witnessed Jesus speaking with Moses and Elijah from
the other side. Perhaps, Jesus was showing us that the angels ascending and descending
represented two-way communication between spirit and the physical worlds taking place, and that
the pulling back of the veil (so to speak) revealed Moses and Elijah or disembodied spirits in the
light speaking to us. Just maybe Jesus’ true mission was to free the earth bound spirits (just like
Peter mentioned he did with those from the time of the flood) and assist them in moving on with their
lives by heading into the light (spirit realm).
Jesus spoke of not keeping the light hid, but to let it shine unto others. Witnesses saw the physical
manifestation of the true ministry Jesus was doing in the unseen realm. He was freeing the unseen
captives, while freeing those bound by them in the physical. All of this was demonstrated in power
when he spoke with the possessing demon or demons, and had them leave the person who was
possessed. Upon removal of the ghost (or ghosts) that was co-inhabiting another’s body, the
rightful owner of the body would be instantly transformed – freed from whatever physical and mental
abnormalities were present prior to the exorcism (for lack of a better word).
I believe our understanding of possession has to come into the light of this truth. People want to
continue to chase "demons," because they are unable to wrap their minds around the truth of ghost
possession. Religion has done more damage by creating fear and falsehoods in people.
Paranormal investigators and "demonologists" need to quit chasing ghosts for fun and fame, and
begin to seek to understand how to help those bound on the other side of the grave.
EARTHBOUND SPIRITS
What are Earthbound Spirits?
Many people enjoy the thrill of a good horror film, but it is less entertaining when strange and frightening things start happening in reality. Hollywood film-makers did not invent the phenomena of earthbound spirits, ghosts, spectres and poltergeists - they simply exaggerated the truth and throw in extra special effects. "Earthbound" spirits, as they are called in medium circles, can cause havoc to the people of this world. Although nobody, in the case files on this website, spits green slime, crawls out of graves or levitates, for the people concerned what happened was much more frightening because they didn't watch events on a big screen, but experiences them in reality.
EARTHBOUND SPIRITS AND SCIENCE
There are scientists who believe that the brain emits an electrical 'morphic field' that imprints itself on the environment. Ghosts and apparitions are seen when our psychic abilities read these mental recordings. Consequently the same ghostly figure is seen time and time again at the same place. Just as we would say that a photograph of a person is not the person themselves so a ghost is likewise not a conscious being. It is a series of mental vibrations left in the atmosphere of the environment that a sensitive person can perceive unfolding like a film.
WHAT ARE EARTHBOUND SPIRITS?
Earthbound spirits are those that, for various reasons, still cling to our world. Often they do not even know that they are dead. An unresolved inner conflict, feelings of revenge, guilt or a desperate need to finish their earthly business stops them progressing. These spirits cannot hurt or harm anyone- they have no body to hurt you with- but may frighten some people. Mediums are trained to link with these entities who wish to make contact and will reassure them and help them to move on. We will send out thoughts to direct the departed one towards other spirits who know and love them and together convince the earthbound spirit to enter the ever forgiving afterlife.
Although it makes interesting reading, work with earthbound spirits is only an very tiny part of our work. Cases like these are extremely rare. The main thrust of our mediumistic work is to communicate with the spirit people who return from the bliss of the afterlife to reassure their loved ones on earth that they are happy, safe and well.
INVESTIGATING AN EARTHBOUND SPIRIT
In the case of Beverley's family that follows next they were at first scared of their ghost but now treat her as a family friend:
"All our family have seen the little Victorian girl who wears a long night dress- we have called her Emily. I asked the previous owners of the house if they'd seen anything and they exclaimed 'Oh she's back again is she?" says Beverley from Hampshire.
Jane was the first to investigate Beverley's story. "My first impression was that Beverley had found Emily's blue patterned jug in the garden and I pointed out where Emily's dog's grave had been" says Jane.
Beverley confirmed that bones and blue china had been found where Jane said. Jane said that the girl had died in the well that they had recently covered over. They later checked the records and found this to be true- beneath the new kitchen was the remains of an old well.
When I investigated the cottage Emily told me about a St Christopher medal the owners had found under a tile in the kitchen. I pointed to the stone tile and they confirmed that this was the exact place it was found. Beverley rummaged through a draw and handed me the St Christopher to help me build my link with the spirit by holding it.
Emily took me on a tour round her old home. She was aware that she knew that she was dead but preferred to stay put so long as nobody minded. It was her that had been trying to draw attention to herself by moving the children's toy clowns and, as described and witnessed by Beverley their mother, making them come alive. Beverley decided to burn the offending clowns in the garden. "There was a piercing scream as I threw them on the bonfire" said Beverley, "It nearly scared the life of me."
Emily was sorry that she had scared them all.
Jane had got it right when she visited earlier. She'd told the owners that Emily had fallen down the well when the authorities arrived to take her to a children's home after her parents died. Children's homes in Victorian times were fearsome places.
The spirit of Emily began telling me how the house had changed and the owner was able to confirm this. Strangely one of the bedrooms had once been a larder and Beverley said that they'd had to completely strip this large room of wooden shelving and cupboards. The children's room, I said, had once been Emily's and this is where I was told she had most often been seen dressed in her long white night dress
There was one manifestation of Emily that had not been so pleasant. Beverley told me that on one of the walls on the house a marking had appeared and disappeared.
Emily led me into the living room and told me to place my hand on a particular place on the plain, clean wall. "It wasn't a simple mark" I exclaimed "It was a red hand of blood"
Beverley looked shocked and I began to wonder if I'd spoken out of turn. I didn't want to be alarmist but, although she'd said nothing about this to anyone before, this is exactly what the whole family had seen at the place where I put my hand. Again I could feel Emily from the spirit side apologising.
"Although some people would be worried by a ghost we feel that Emily is a nice spirit to have around" says Beverley "She's never given us any more trouble and the last thing we would want is for Craig & Jane to get rid of her."
Story of the psychiatrist who encounters a ghost during an investigation with Spiritualist Medium Craig Hamilton-Parker
The people who approach Jane and I come from all walks of life. We've seen doctors, solicitors, businessmen, and even a high court judge. But when a psychiatrist telephoned and asked for assistance I was very surprised- normally they reject mediums out of hand.
Warminster based psychiatrist, Dr Medway, contact me and asked if I could visit her patient's home to find out if it really was haunted. "The lady involved is convinced that she is under a ghostly attack." said the psychiatrist "She insists that a poltergeist is throwing things around the room and that a shadowy man is trying to attack her."
We visited the house together hoping to convince the lady that there was nothing to worry about. But when we stepped into the living room we all saw a strange white mist that clung to the floor. "Did you see that?" gulped the psychiatrist. Her face went as white as a sheet. It was clear that we were dealing with something real after all.
The lady showed me around the house and I sat and meditated at the places where she said the manifestations were strongest. I described a bearded man who was troubling her. The description fitted what she had been seeing.
The spirit told me that he was a gypsy and that he was buried nearby. I talked to him calmly and after a long and difficult inner debate he agreed to go. The psychiatrist looked as relieved as everyone else.
When the records were checked it was found that gypsies had camped extensively in that area many years ago. They had no formal cemetery but it was believed that they buried their dead in the vicinity of the house in the woods that had once covered the estate.
Earthbound Spirits
Earthbound spirits are disembodied people who have remained attached to the physical realm, having not moved on beyond it, after their physical bodies expired . Earthbound spirits are ghosts. Many wish for a ghost to hang around them or their residence, but a ghost is a lost soul, no matter how nice the ghost may seem. When the body dies, the spirit of the person should move unto white light, where loved ones and a feeling of peace, love, and joy are experienced. This is a cleansing process for the spirit, and the ones greeting the recently departed bring comfort, aiding the newly disincarnate to adjust to the spirit world .
After this initial experience, a life-review occurs as life-issues are worked through, bringing closure which further acts as a cleansing process. Spirits choosing to remain earthbound are found void of this cleansing and closure process, and thus remain with those on the earth as "unclean spirits," having no peace, love, or joy. Hell truly being found here on earth, disembodied spirits co-exist and unhealthily interact with those physically embodied.
A clean spirit may visit loved ones from time to time for various reasons and may become a spirit guide, or messenger (think angels). Clean spirits proceed from the light and are of it. In contrast, disembodied spirits (ghosts) are in darkness , meaning they are lost. Darkness does not necessarily mean a ghost will have ill-intent, it simply means the condition of the disembodied spirit is unhealthy. Those who pursue ghosts need to understand that disembodied spirits are still hurting people, though unseen
If a person does not proceed into the light after death of the physical body, that person will remain earthbound. The condition of the person before passing will be the remaining condition of the disembodied spirit. Emotional traumas, as well as physical pains and afflictions are still felt, even though the spirit is no longer within a body. If the ghost was addicted to drugs,sex
or alcohol for example, then those same addictions also remain. In fact, these addictions and traumas will drive the disembodied spirit into trying to find relief, even though relief will not be found in the physical realm. As the ghost looks backward to the past by remaining earthbound, the prison is complete, as the future becomes lost and not seen as the way out - the light and loved ones (trying to rescue the ghost) become invisible to the disincarnate. Be sure and read about Spirit Rescue .
Some disembodied spirits remain earthbound simply to watch over loved ones, possessions or in an attempt to get a final message across to the physically living. Some of the ghosts believe they are actually helping their loved ones, by bringing guidance and strength and seem oblivious to the unintentional harm they may be causing them. In all cases, there is never a good reason for a spirit to remain earthbound, as remaining in darkness is suffering for both those in and out of bodies, no matter how good the intent of the ghost. In comparison, spirits who have moved on unto the light can return and visit those in the earthly realm. They do not negatively affect those who are in physical bodies as ghosts often do, but bring hope, love and encouragement.
Disembodied spirits, however, may actually worsen their condition, either by accident or purposeful, ill-intent, by becoming a possessing spirit. In cases of spirit possession , the darkness is not only experienced by the lost spirit, but by those in physical bodies who have unknowingly become hosts of the disembodied-now embodied spirit.oss
Please do not be afraid of Earthbound spirits as they are simply the spirit of a person who has died and for some reason has not moved on to the next vibration.
You have probably met some people who are adamant that death is the end and will not be convinced otherwise, so on death they have no expectations of another life, so stay in this grey between worlds area.
Others can be there because they have unfinished business, or feelings of guilt so wish to apologise to a loved one or partner. Some spirits can be held back by the love of their partner who has made a shrine in the home, and cant let go, others are trapped by a band of powerful negative energy created by Geopathic stress, which acts like a solid barrier of energy.
How do you rescue a trapped spirit?
Please don't ever be afraid of these spirits as you are probably the first human contact they have had since their death, so they are usually very pleased to make contact with you. Mentally speak to them, say hello and guide them to the Light. Do not tell them they are dead!! Ask the angels and your guides to help the spirit to the light.
If you decide to work with earthbound spirits, it is important that you place a form of protection around you. There are many methods to choose from, but if you have to act quickly, visualise yourself jumping into a bubble of white light and zipping it up, so you are surrounded by protection of white light while in the bubble. Protection is important as negative entities are often present and waiting their opportunity to attach to an unsuspecting person.
Is it possible to discover the identity of an earthbound spirit?
If you are curious about the identity of a spirit in your home, you can check the Electoral roll which dates back 200 years. Another alternative is the Family Records Centre in London which holds copies of wills dating back to the 14th century.
What are negative entities?
They are beings from the lower earth plane who have never lived on the earth plane, and are intent on causing trouble. Do not ever try to release this type of entity from a place, or from a person whose behaviour is being influenced by learn, this is a job for a specialist.
