I Never Belived In the Existence Of Ghosts, Now I Am A Believer by benega: 9:22am On Sep 26, 2014
Sometime last year while I was at our hometown in the east, my mom forced me and ma lil bro funjosh to follow her to some night vigil in a small church near our house. Half way through d service, I decided to sneak back home with ma bro cuz we were bored, and mosquito was feasting on our fresh ajebo skin. As we were walking back we sighted some white cloaked figures (about 3) standing I d distance. My brother panicked and begged 4 us 2 turn back. Being naturally fearless I urged us on. As we got closer to the masquerade like figures, I began to feel a sensation of ma head vibrating and expanding. Ma bro felt it too cuz he cried out: 'benega ma head is swelling' before he bolted and ran back 2 church. I continued. 15m to the figures they turned and started GLIDING towards me. At dat point I dint need tb joshua to tell me ma life was @ stake. I bolted. ANYone wif similar experience shld share it here. No fabricating pls.

Aren't you the same person who claimed you hadn't seen a ghost before in another thread now claiming that you have seen one on this thread?

benega: I haven't seen, only heard stories, have u? Share ur experience here.

I can deduce that you are curious about ghosts and interested in learning about them. You would have simply come out clean asking to learn about ghosts. Ghosts are simply the souls/spirits of human beings who once walked this earth, who after dying got stuck and remained on the earth plane. All things being equal, souls on dying and separating from the human body generally pass through a tunnel and cross into the 'light' on the other side of the tunnel. This tunnel has been said to be a conduit enclosure connecting earth and the afterlife and the light is figurative expression for the afterlife or heaven(in christianity) in where the all-pervading light and love of God exists. So many factors serve to account for why certain souls get stuck on the earth plane. Some reasons include,

- extreme attachment to their physical life and properties/wealth left behind on earth: some people tend to get overly attached to life on earth and find it difficult to let go. Some wealthy people who were extremely materialistic(allowed their extreme desire and love of money to penetrate within to their souls) on earth, after dying find it difficult to let go of their materialistic possessions and accumulations. These souls, not inherently bad per say, will often choose not to cross over as crossing over severes their bond to earth and completes the crossing over process, but choose to hang around on earth among the living, believing they are not yet 'dead', and that they can get by around what just happened to them in order to return back to their former lives. These souls will often try to act like they are still alive and walk among the living trying to do things as they used to do before, try touching physical things or talking to people, and noticing they can't grasp objects or nobody sees or hears them. They often hang around their earthly houses or properties in sort of a 'protecting' manner trying to 'protect' their wealth and materialistic possessions.

- extreme addiction to physical pleasures such as sex, drinking, smoking etc: moderation in all that you do is a great spiritual virtue. However, some people get addicted to certain physical pleasures such as sex, smoking, drinking such that the desire penetrates too deep into their souls. If these individuals are unable to overcome their extreme addictions and die, their souls continue to crave to satisfy their earthly addictions. Note that death is simply the shedding off of the human physical body and the releasing of the soul. Realizing that they are no longer solid, these souls will try to use people still living who have similar desires/addictions to satisfy their cravings. The earthly humans, or human prey, used to satisfy these desires are weak-willed as they have allowed physical pleasures to take control of their self-will to control these desires when they come up. These human addicts, who are like the ghost addicts in desire and addiction, are easy prey and targets for ghosts who use them to continue to enjoy earthly pleasures. Ghosts will possess their host bodies momentarily for the addiction to be satisfied, leave the human prey and return again when the desire comes up again. Ghosts often tend to return to host bodies to which they have established a mutual relationship with. These ghosts tend to often hang around bars, sex houses etc seeking weak-willed preys to take advantage of. However, nature has made it not that easy for ghosts to possess just any human being. The ghost and human host will have to have the same addictions and the human host will have to be weak-willed(unable to control one's addictions or extreme desires at will) to enable ghosts take advantage of them.

-religious teachings and personal beliefs: due to the erroneous christian belief of so-called 'salvation', some people die, on dying, think they are going to hell if they left the earth plane because they had not 'repented' before dying. These souls are already judging themselves needlessly and would choose to hang around on earth to escape their so-called 'doom'. Some people, on the other hand, believe that after death comes nothingness or total blackness and that life ends at death. These souls live life with little or no thoughts about the afterlife or what to expect only to die and wander around on the earth plane like a lost person. These souls had spent their entire lives dedicated to earthly and physical things and very little to spiritual issues and matters to, at least, understand the workings and principles of the afterlife and where to expect to go on dying. Physically, some of these souls were rich, wealthy, well-educated, of great knowlege and experience etc but their souls were undeveleoped and deprived of spiritual growth, nurture and knowledge. Now the physical blanket to which they spent all their lives tending to has been worn off leaving their grossly undeveloped baby-like souls exposed to its ignorance and lack of knowledge.

- the extreme 'fear of death': many people fear death at some point in their lives, however some people take their fear of death to the extreme such that they believe that death is a bad thing and earth living is the good thing. These people often swear and pray to live long, not to die, and would want to live forever on earth if allowed. Some of such people, on dying, totally refuse to accept that they have died, despite watching their own burials, relatives and family members mourning them, seeing their own obituaries etc and hang around on earth trying to mimic human activities to make them believe 'feel' alive.

Ghosts are very limited in power in what they can do to a human. You do not need to fear them. Ghosts feed off of human fear. Ghosts, being formerly human, know full well that fear is an integral part of human emotions and try to use it to manipulate humans into thinking they can harm them by making humans fear them. We have many of them walking this earth everyday with humans but are not easily seen to the human eyes except through special traininging.
