GHOSTS OF THE LIVING
Often we hear of cases in which a person sees an image of a person they know
while they person is really miles away at the time, alive. That's correct,
alive and breathing. This type of apparition is called a crisis apparition
and it is often studied by ghost researchers due to the similarities in these
apparitions and ghosts of the deceased. This phenomenon can also
manifest in the person hearing a voice of a friend or loved one with some
message or warning while the person who is heard speaking is no where near
and totally unaware that this has occurred. Most of these crisis
apparitions occur when a person is in some form of danger or pain. It
appears the person in danger makes psychic contact with a loved one miles
away to let them know something is not right. The person in crisis is
not aware that they are doing this. Here are a few examples of phenomenon:
December 1943: Mrs. Violet Almond was awakened by an apparition of her
husband that floated above her for a few minutes. She learned later
that her husband, who was on a battlefield in North Africa, was being shelled
heavily and was praying to God to save him so he could see his wife again
at the exact time she was seeing his apparition in their bedroom.
1951 - Helen Crone saw an apparition of a close friend who was alive miles
away. The agitated apparition instructed her to go check on her baby.
When she did this she found her child had managed to open a drawer full of
sharp knives and was about to play with them.
These crisis apparitions may help us understand how and why we see ghosts.,
especially deceased human ones who are earthbound or just visiting.
The person in crisis some how projects an energy to another person.
The receiver's brain translates the energy into a human like figure that resembles
the sender. Is this the same energy that is left behind or accompanies
a deceased human spirit? Some people who are more "in tune"
with a particular spirit's energy may see a full bodied apparition just like
in many crisis apparitions. Others may not interpret the energy the
same or at all and just see a light, a mist, or nothing. We can apply
this theory of the spirit energy interpretation to spirit photos as well.
The majority of photos are not full bodied apparitions but what researchers
believe are spirits energy that the camera translates into the form of orbs,
mists, vortexes and light rods. I view crisis apparitions
as more proof that there is a part of us that can leave the physical body
or live on without it and still make contact with others, accomplish tasks
and operate as an intelligent entity. I think this is what we call the
soul.
