To begin this process in a safe and relaxed manner, we will
break it into three parts. First we will wish to shield, for
comfort and safety, second we will introduce the basic method of
seeing ghosts, and third, the techniques used to communicate with
them will be explored.
Find a room where you, or you and your friends if you wish, can sit
comfortably and relax. Take a few minutes to clear your mind, but
keep your eyes open. Darken the room, but leave at least a small
light source, as it will make it easier to define what you are
looking at in relationship to the room.
Shielding
Imagine an egg shaped sphere around you. Hold in your mind the
idea, the concept, of this shield keeping you safe from all
intrusive energy that may be present. Feel secure in your
shielding, it will protect you from harm.
Maintain this field for several minutes, this will allow it to have
enough strength to last if your attention waivers, which it
probably will the first few times you see a ghost.
Seeing ghosts
There are several techniques you can use to sense and perceive
ghosts, use any that works for you, or be creative and create your
own technique as you progress. These basic techniques will let
almost everyone see ghosts within ten to fifteen minutes. I suggest
you start here and experiment as you improve.
Hold your mind as free of thoughts as possible. Allow your eyes to
defocus and your body to relax. Slow you eye movements and scan the
room by moving your head. After a few moments you will notice parts
of your visual field that you usually ignore, subtle things that
are always their. As you pay attention to movement, flashes of
light or color, or even a "sense" of presence, keep your eyes
relaxed.
Alternatively you can "see" most of the same things with your eyes
closed. This is likely because the ability to see ghosts is not a
visual process but one that overlaps the visual field in the brain.
It seems visual, but that is just because of the way the mind
interprets data.
Close you eyes and keep your mind as clear as possible. Focus your
attention ahead of you, much as if you were looking with your
physical eyes. This helps most people concentrate, as it is a part
of their normal functioning patterns. After a few moments you will
likely notice movement in the room around you. It is not uncommon
to be able to sense the room and the people in it, in a fashion
that leaves ghostly images in your mind.
By moving your head slowly from side to side you will be able to
sense anything in the room that is holding still as well.
Experience will show that movement is part of this basic sense,
either in what you are looking at or in yourself.
With a bit of practice with either or both methods you will begin
to notice forms moving through the space you are looking at. Some
will ignore you no matter what you do, but many take your attention
as a sign that they should try to interact with you. If you respond
in a kind and gentle manner, you will find that you can open up
communication with some of them.
Communicating With Ghosts
Ghosts will often try to communicate in several ways, they will
gesture, mouth words, generated words using ambient sounds and
communicate on a telepathic level. By paying attention to what they
do and say you can often get very clear pictures of what it is they
wish to tell you. It takes no special skill, being more like
talking with a small child that does not speak yet, but will manage
to make their need known regardless, than some supernatural
ability.
If you keep you mind very clear, you will be able to pick up the
impressions that the ghosts or entity is trying to send you.
Remember that even though some entities will try to frighten you,
they have no real power over you. In fact you are far more
powerful, having a body to generate useful energy to perform the
task at hand, as well as having the ability to use environmental
energy like they do. Dont let them intimidate you. This is the
main reason for being well shielded at the beginning of this
adventure. Not so much for protection, as you mainly wont need it,
but to prevent fear from entering you mind.
Most ghosts have simple messages they wish to share. They do not
have, generally speaking, the complexity we see in living people.
To send a message that they can understand, simply hold the
concept, the impression, you wish them to receive, in your mind.
Given a clear and focused impression, they will likely come to
understand you in just a few moments.
Some words of warning before you start. Just as cool free offers
spread by word of mouth on the internet, so to will word of your
efforts get past to ghosts that wish to talk to someone. After a
few days of regular practice communicating with ghosts, hundreds or
even thousands may appear, all vying for your attention.
This can seem overwhelming at first, to say the least. Remember
though, that you can shield your person or home to keep them out,
even specific rooms in your house, such as the bathroom, or you can
simply ignore them.
If you go back to being boring, by not talking to them, they will
rapidly seek entertainment elsewhere. Give them no attention for a
week and all but the most dedicated will be gone.
You can often get away with speaking to one or two without drawing
the huge crowds, but much more than that may call more of them to
your location than you wish.
With a little work, you can experience many of the same things that
the top mediums have reported through the ages, in a safe and
non-threatening way. Follow the basic steps and have fun.
