Perhaps you have sometimes wondered what is a ghost; is it the spirit of a dead person? Is it any supernatural o paranormal phenomenon related with the ESP powers? Is a ghost, like some people sustains, an alien projection, in therefore something related to the ufo phenomena? The answer of what is a ghost isn�t easy; what you will see here is the hermetic and esoteric explication to the ghost phenomena; i absolutely refuse the ufo explication because ofr whatever person who has seen or felt a ghost, will tell you that is hasn�t to do with aliens or ufo related explnations.
Well, more or less, there is general consense that when a person dies, the soul, or mind, abandons the body and migrates to the astral world to begin a planetary process of purification; this can�t be considered a ghost because the soul abandons the physical world and enters a parallel reality (but not coincident); some spiritism experts say that the ghost phenomena are souls that don�t follow their path (to heaven or astral, depending of the different esoteric and religious doctrines), and remain attached to the physical world mainly for 2 reasons: 1) the ghost was a person excesively material, so can�t abandon the physical sphere, and his or her own very material vibrations maintain him or her attached to the physical world and 2) because the spirit or ghost looks for to accomplish a mission that couldn�t finish while alive.
Well, i consider the second explanation of the ghost phenomena not good at all, because the most of people lets unfinished tasks when die; and in fact, following the reincarnation theory (the most of esoteric, hermetic and occult orders and school consider good and accurate the theory of the reincarnation), we find that many times a karmic lesson is occulted beyond an unifinished task, so, even we can say that it is written, even before the birth, that we will let some tasks unfinished.
The first explanation of the materiality of a spirit to find a cause to the ghost phenomena is more accurate, but not at all; why? it is right, that the similar attracts the similar, so if a person vibrates in a very material way, after the death, that soul or ghost can feel attached to the earth; but that can�t be eternally because there are spiritual proccesses that, sooner or later, will obligue him or her to be submited to the purification process of the astral.
Then, which is the cause that i consider most accurate to explain the ghost phenomena? Well, the testimonies of many people that have seen a ghost or paranormal facts related to the death say that the ghost followed a automatic behavior, very mechanic and non human; obviously the ghosts are not machines, but the behavior was very similar to a computer program; always the same phrases and sentences, and the ghost also did always the same movements; in the ancient hermetic tradition there is a similar behavior that can explain very accurately the ghost phenomena; that is called the egregor; and you are probably wondering what the hell is a egregor, no? Well, it is some sort of concentration or condensation of emotion and thoughts that create a virtual being; this concentration of emotions adquires semi-life and semi-conscence, but by definition, it is only temporal, and with time will die; althought in the hermetic tradition, the egregor hasn�t been used to explain the ghost phenomena (the egregor is very used for magick purposes, and also, in the curriculum of some modern schools of mind control, is studied), you can think that a person in moments of stress or agitation, can produce a lot of energy focused only in a unique cause; this sudden concentration of energy could produce a egregor that after will produce physical manifestations like a ghost, but it is only a mask; it is not a real dead person. |
