And then… So can ghosts be perceived by human beings? Normally, no, because ghosts essentially don’t have any gross body. So the subtle body is not perceivable with the gross eyes. We can’t see our own mind.
So we can’t see a soul who is covered only by the mind. But at the same time, the ghosts have certain mystical powers. Because they exist at a subtler level of existence.
The mind has certain powers which can be accessed by the yogis. Okay. The yogis have various siddhis.
This prapti siddhi, where they can reach out and get anything from a remote part of the world. So what in modern scientific parlance are called as paranormal phenomena or PSI. So, extrasensory perception, clairvoyance, telepathy, psychokinesis.
So these are reasonably well documented. They’re not like irrefutable scientific evidence for it. But there’s reasonable evidence for it.
Okay. So, these are the laws of physics, the laws of motion. They apply to gross matter and gross objects.
But because the mind is not a gross object, so mind is not restricted by the laws of physics. Right. So, now when a soul normally because we have a physical body and we are in physical consciousness, subtle mystical powers are mostly not accessible to most of us.
But souls who have no physical bodies, and they have simply the subtle bodies. So, some of them may have access to certain subtle powers by which they can appear as apparitions. Apparition means like a ghostly presence.
Sometimes a relative has passed away and then the relatives of that deceased person they see a shimmering form which resembles the deceased person. So, that basically the soul who has passed away and who is still somehow attached to the previous family, who wants to communicate something to that family. So, the soul and subtle body by some mystic power available at the mental level can create the appearance of a form which looks like the form of a deceased person so that the relatives will be able to identify.
And they may communicate. So, sometimes there is something called planchettes. It’s well known.
There are some people who are mediums. They are able to communicate with mystical beings and often the way they communicate is people ask a medium to connect with a deceased relative and then that medium writes something on a planchette, on a board basically. And whatever that person medium writes, it is sometimes considered that the deceased relative who has been called, that relative is writing through the medium.
Medium is a embodied person. Some people with some psychic powers they can connect with some beings like that. Now, much of it is likely to be hoax but some of it is reasonably well documented also.
The point I am making here is that how would the ghost be able to take control of that medium’s hand and make that hand write in a way that conveys the message they want. Now, there are times when the mediums have actually written in languages that they themselves did not know and written coherently, properly, grammatically correct, semantically correct in a language that they themselves did not know. So, after they write, they wonder what is this I have written.
Others who know that language, they recognize what is being written over there. So, basically the ghosts can sometimes if they want to communicate with particular living beings, they may have certain mystical powers by which they can do it. So, Duttakarma Prabhu, Dr. Michael Kramer in his book Human Evolution, he talks about three levels of interactions with ghosts.
One is you could say communication which is through planchets. Second is apparitions which is they manifest a particular form for some time. And third is possessions where they enter into a particular body and then they take over that person.
yes, especially when the apparitions occur, that’s when we can say that some humans might be able to see some ghosts for some time. But it’s not that ghosts are intrinsically visible to human eyes. No, because they exist at a level, they are
