Ghosts, Hauntings And Manifestations....??? Options

[Reeth]

Although Ghosts and Apparitions have been reported for thousands of years, surprisingly very little
informatiom is available with regard to their nature or essence.
Ghosts are elusive and unpredictable, and, the ways in which they manifest are surprisingly diverse.
Contrary to popular belief most ,ghostly encounters are not visual but rather consist of noises, smell
sensations,voices, cold spots,electrical disturbances such as lights switching on and off,displacement
or movement of objects. The available data on this is prone to exaggeration and sometime outright
deceit.

studies suggest that approximateli 1 in 10 of us has the ability to perceive ghosts, those of us
who are actively looking for them are apparently the least likely ones to have a ghostly experience....
Children seem more apt to experience manifestations....
Women seem more attuned than men....
There are several interesting theories regarding the basics of ghostly manifestations

Ghosts are the earth bound souls of the deceased
This is the most common interpretation.....for most of us this theory is comforting, as it hints at a life
after the physical body is gone...
The theory is tht when the physical body dies this energy continues in some form and can be tapped
by living persons sensitive enough to perceive it....

Events are somehow recorded in certain surroundings to be replayed over and over to living people sensitive enough to discern them....

This theory accounts for a lot of our ghost legends and likely the source of all hauntings that repeat again
and again...
Frightening as these type of manifestations may be, the apparition is not a thinking entity, nor does it have
a will or a purpose, and it is no more a threat to an observer than watching a chracter on a telivision...

Ghosts are actual beings living in one or more parallel dimensions

To put it simply, this theory suggests that there are one or more complete universes co-existing with us

Ghosts exist only as Figments of our imagination

This theory can be made to apply to every kind of paranormal manifestation there is,and in some case it
is probably at least in part correct.
However there are still a lot of questions left unanswered by this theory, such as when more than one
person sees the same phenomenon....Skeptics use the term 'Mass hysteria' for situations like
this, but nobody has offered an explaination for the core catalyst causing many brains to suddenly go
haywire.....
This Theory needs a lot of research.....Only time will tell....
In the meantime....here are some photographs of ghotly manifestations...
Girl in the graveyard.......she appeared in the photograph!!!!!


The man seems to have come out of a tombstone in the graveyard......









Please come forward with your own views, theories and personal experiences if any.........

wow Nasir bhai you have got guts to go on your own at 2 am!!!!

Lata!!!! you are here!!!!! trust you to appear in a ghost thread
i do have some interesting stories about the planchet well planchet really proves theres something unknown to humankind in this world....!!!! but before i tell the more interesting facts i will tell you all about my first experience the first time i tried planchet was a disaster!!! it was my first year in college and i stayed in a PG with 5-6 girls, one afternoon we all decided to "call the bhoot" to get some answers (basically related to our love life ) no one had done this before but i had seen my sisters doing it so we took a chart paper... made the planchet and sat down around it most of us were afraid to even put our fingers on the coin but someone had to do it so me and my friend kept our fingers on the coin and clumsily started calling a holy spirit passing by... for the first 10 minutes nothing happened and we decided to call it quits but even as we were thinking about it the coin grew very cold and some kind of vibration we still don’t know if it was our imagination or really the spirit was trying to come!!! me and my friend looked at each other and were so scared we let the coin go... after that we were so shocked we didnt speak just kept looking at each other was the spirit with us?? had we set it free coz we broke the connection with the coin... we were all thinking such things when there was a knock on the door... as we were gathering the courage to go and open the door we heard the loud clanging of dishes as if someone was throwing them at our door... then a loud howling from a dog or something all of us screamed and rushed out to the balcony and started shouting for our landlord...

later we came to know it was our landlord's servant who had brought in our lunch and lost control on the stairs

I have heard a lot of people being successful in making contact with the spirits?/ how far that is true is anybody's guess... i did participate a couple of times but with no success..

I have heard a lot of people being successful in making contact with the spirits?/ how far that is true is anybody's guess... i did participate a couple of times but with no success..

i have had success and there is something really strange with my experience...
but first an introduction it may sound funny to most ppl but something is their with me that attracts some supernatural powers maybe my Piscean sunsign or whatever.... when i was a baby i would always fall sick and cry for days without any explanation as to what was wrong with me.. one such time i cried so much that my mom feared i would die as i wasnt even eating anything then a neighbor told my mom "isko nazar lagi hai" and she did something with red chilly… within seconds i was smiling and eating properly again....now whenever im sick my mom does that nazar utaaro thing and surprisingly im fine.... once my sister met some tantrik on the train and he suddenly started talking to my sister first he started forecasting her future and as it always happens with ppl on such issues my sister was intrigued and interested and then out of the blues he started talking about her little sister that is me... he said your sister loves black color tell her not to wear it she keeps her hair down tell her to braid and keep it tied all the time she is accident prone and always has one or the other limb broken or injured... my sister was scared witless as it was true about me...

well this might be the reason that bar the first disastrous and unsuccessful experience with planchet… everytime i have tried this i have had a spirit come within seconds and not just any spirit its always the same...

the second time i called a spirit it was me and a friend who had several experiences so there wasnt any risk and also we were not afraid as we lived just next door to a gurdwaara... within seconds both of us felt some vibration and when we asked was there someone present the coin moved on yes i asked my friend if she was moving it to fool me she removed her finger and i asked if the spirit knew anyone in the room the coin moved to yes and i was sure it was moving on its own accord now... on asking who it knew the coin moved on the letter "P" there was only one P in the room so i asked if it was me and it said yes.... so by asking some proper questions we came to the conclusion that it was the spirit of my fathers cousin mamaji who always stayed near me and when a Christian friend present in the room asked if he was my guardian angel he said yes....
we asked many questions and when we were through we asked if he wanted to go and he said yes so we send him away.... but curiosity is a bad thing so we decided to call another spirit and again within seconds the coin started moving and when we asked who it was... it was again my mamaji when i asked if he was the only one who will come when i called he said yes...
when i mentioned this to my father he was very angry but when i started asking if he had any mama with the name initial who lived in the said city who loved him very much he was shocked it was all true... later my mausi on hearing all this asked me to call the spirit again and as always he came at my first call and we asked many question... some of you will say it was just a psychological thing but what will explain the prediction which he gave and it all came true??? he had told me my older sis would get married to a boy in mumbai, his name would start with "V" and it would happen in 2004 the 11th month thas exactly how it happend
he had also told me my second sis would marry a boy whose name would start with an "M" and he would be from delhi... my sisters marriage got fixed with a boy whose name started with "N" and at the time i told my mom how can it be my mamaji has told me it will be M... and would you believe that the marriage was cancelled due to some reason and she is now married to an M!!!! she was supposed to go to US in 2006 she was going to have her baby in 2007 and that all came true.... not just these but there are so many other personal things that came true and lots more remains to be seen though i now need no authenticity regarding this...
but this is true... i just need to keep my finger on the coin and my mamaji answers....i try not to bother him too often its only when any of my family members needs some answers i participate and that too i have reprimanded then not to ask any death or issues that aren’t meant to be answered....

Preet, I believe you! And not b'coz you are a Piscean.

A lot of things happen in everyone's life that completely defy logical explanation; maybe we shud stop looking 4 answers and just be content with the way things are.

I know that I wud hate 2 lose that last vestige of mystery too.
