Ghosts:The myth and the facts
What is a ghost? If you are given to legend, a ghost is something that can harm you, but it is mainly there to protect "it's" place. According to christianity, any and all ghosts are demons that will manipulate you for the sake of possession.
The truth is, ghosts are people who have died, usually violently, who don't realize that they're dead. They are very confused about time, date, and their whereabouts.
To be exact, ghosts-apparitions of dead people or sounds associated with invisible human beings-are the surviving emotional memories of people who have not been able to make the transition from their physical state into the world of the spirit.
Their state is one of emotional shock induced by sudden death or great suffering, and because they cannot understand what has happened to them. They are unable to see beyond their immediate environment or problem, so they are forced to continually relive those final moments of agony until someone breaks through and explains things to them.
Those who die normally under conditions of adjustment need not go through this agony, and they seem to pass on rapidly to the next state of consciousness that may be a "heaven", or "hell".
