Many people are afraid of spirit because they can’t see them. Yes, sometimes it’s a surprising experience when I turn around and practically walk into a spirit person. My reaction is pretty much the same as what it would be if there were a physical person present behind me. Surprise, shock, and then I often catch myself apologizing for walking into them. 🙂
I often remark that I’m more fearful of those in human form than in spirit, and this can’t be more truthful. In the more than 50 years I’ve been interacting with spirit there’s only been two times where I was unnerved. Once was when I was asked to sit in on a paranormal investigation with the Michigan-base group, Grimstone, Inc. The other time was when I was alone, meditating in my home and had forgotten to set up my boundaries.
Both times that I mention are events that I can now say I learned a lot from, and as crazy as it seems, I’m glad I had these experiences so I could share the knowledge learned with others. This brings me to the point of my writing this article…
Only once in my life did I really experience fear, which was brought about by something (note the “thing”) I couldn’t explain. That was the Grimstone experience. That “being” could not be described as having ever been in human form. So what was it? To this day I couldn’t say. It was definitely an energy form, but I doubt it was ever in human form, which, I have to say, kind of creeps me out. Lol
Yes, there are other dimensions out there. We have the physical realm, the lower astral where your over one’s initially go upon passing from their physical form. Spirit can be easily connected and communicate with at this level. Then there’s the upper astral, where we often refer to as the place the new recently deceased ascend into the light. Of course these spirit people can be communicated with. It’s what I do daily!
There are many other realms out there. In the Spiritualist belief there are seven realms of existence. Each realm, or dimension, is created of the consciousness of those who inhabit it. From our lowly dimension up to and including re-assimilated into God.
Many people can reach deep states of awareness through meditation, which allows them to enter into the higher realms, however, opening the doors to the other realms should always be done with caution. Protection should always be your first priority as you may not be aware of which realm you’re headed for!
Should this make you fearful of delving into meditation or spiritual growth? Absolutely not! If done properly you can venture into a fantastic spiritual voyage where you can touch in with spiritual beings of many forms… And there are many! Learn, explore and grow!
