1998.04.04 Quo on afterlife

[Siren]

This undoubtedly disagrees with many who say that their loved one returns to guide them or to watch over them. Or to those who say that the deceased return in that identity to haunt or to follow those they once interacted with.

What are your thoughts on the dead returning to us?

First of all, from my perspective there are no "dead." I see no distinction between "living" and "dead." There are only living fields of consciousness, as you would put it, that are either incarnated or discarnated (i.e. "born" in space/time or "dead" in time/space—yet both of them are alive).

Now, the time/space metaphysical environment functions under a different set of parameters than its space/time physical reality counterpart. Because of the inherent limitations of a 3rd density experience (and largely because of the veil in 3D space/time), the nature of reality and the mechanisms behind it will naturally be difficult to grasp and make sense of (as Ra said, 3D is not the density of understanding—and it really isn't). Therefore, I may only offer my current perspective on this (limited as it may be):

The "ghost" phenomenon is simply a sort of residual self-image, or gestalt, projected by the now discarnate entity from time/space in the image of its prior incarnate existence in space/time. This thought-form is created out of mental/emotional attachment to the most recent physical form. Contrary to popular belief, the 3D discarnate entity is not suddenly aware of the oneness and love of the Creator; the thoughts, biases and distortions, as well as the level of awareness and degree of spiritual development of the entity, will still be present in (and largely affect the) time/space experience. A 3D discarnate entity is still a 3D entity.

Thus, the great majority of "ghost hauntings" (if not all) are examples of earthly attachments and inability/unwillingness to move on and/or accept the "death" of its physicality (sometimes the discarnate entity is not even aware it is actually "dead"). This is, of course, only temporal.

The "ghost" itself (just as you in your physical form now) are not really your true "identity." Whether in space/time or time/space, each personality shell or construct is but a manifestation/projection/extension of your higher/inner selfness, which we could call an "oversoul." This oversoul has various simultaneous manifestations/projections/extensions of yourself across the densities (which obviously means that some of those projections are fauna/flora 2D entities too). Yet all of these, in sequential progression of evolutionary development, lead back to their/its oversoul. In this sense, the oversoul harvests all the experience in a cumulative thought-focus process.

As for the "dead" returning to visit the "living," this is entirely possible and does occur. However, what must be understood, once again, is that time/space functions quite differently than 3D space/time, thus many of these things are somewhat difficult to process from a 3D space/time perspective (heavily veiled, no less):

For example, the recently "deceased" can visit its family after its death. This will of course depend (and be filtered by) both the receptivity and perceptual awareness of the "living" as well as the conscious capacities of the newly "dead." In this case the contact would occur in a more or less a "real-time" fashion for both the "living" contactee and the discarnate entity.

In other cases, the "living" will yearn so much to contact its "dearly departed" that through a mental projection may create/invoke a thought-form in the image of the "beloved dead" imbued by the energy/consciousness/memory of said discarnate entity, even though this entity may have already left the time/space plane and may now be residing within another physical body in space/time.

In another case, a 3D incarnate entity may contact/summon/invoke some old, ancient discarnate being that lived over 2,000 years ago. This is the case with some magic practitioners, or spiritual seekers/adepts. Think of your friend Thoth, for example. What is being contacted/summoned/invoked, however, is the personality shell/construct associated to that particular "lifetime" of the entity. But you and I know, Shin'Ar, that Thoth is but a manifestation/projection/extension of an a greater oversoul [who knows, maybe you are part of that oversoul—hence your strong ties with Thoth—, and in that sense, you are Thoth; or rather, Thoth is part of your overall personality, or inner/higher selfness].

To clarify this example, let's say I contact/invoke Genghis Khan to lend me some negative wisdom associated to his particular lifetime. Mr. Khan may very well manifest through time/space to yield me some practical knowledge, even though Mr. Khan is—last I checked—a 4th density shipping clerk for the Orion Empire. How is this possible? This is possible because of the trans-temporal nature of time/space.

And yet in other instances, much of the "living-dead" communications and visitations are being handled by a 6D oversoul, or "magic personality" (either your own, or one connected to the "dead" entity in question).

Hope this wasn't too convoluted.
