Question About Spirits/Entities

[mooncresentgirl]

How can people see spirits and/or entities like another human spirit while others can't?

Just like some people can see the good in the world and some can only see the bad.

It's the perception you choose to see with.  Yes, it extends to the non-physical as well.

It takes time to develop sensitivity to perceive these ghosts and spirits. Some people are born more "sensitive" so that they can detect it better than others, but that doesn't mean that if you weren't born sensitive you can never do it. I think you just need to spend more time around places where spirits (hopefully good ones) reside so that you will get more comfortable and used to being around them and therefore more likely to sense spirits and communicate with them. Having a strong psychic sense or psychic ability is helpful too. Some places where positive spirits dwell are in peaceful places in nature.

Very true, some people are more receptive to it even if they do not want to be. I wish sometimes that i was not so receptive. For instance, I have a spirit that dwells near the woman's bathroom at the restaurant I work at and I am often alone there when little weird things start happening. I try to send out a will not to show themselves to me, and so far it has worked. I do not know why I'm scared I just do not feel like being bothered with that can of worms. My mother is worse off then me. She attract entities, good and bad, and they follow her home and pester her husband and her. I think the first step is training yourself to trust your intuition. Then you start becoming aware of things that are going on around you whether you can see them with the naked eye or not.

We have a our physical body and its physical senses that are compatible with this world.

And we have our spirit body which we are primarily and continue to exist as along with our mind and personality when our physical body dies. The spirit body exists at a higher frequency.

Our spirit body is the power that creates and maintains our physical senses ie hearing, seeing, feeling, taste etc, which are of a lower frequency.

The reason we dont see spirit people with our physical eyes is because the frequency is different.
There are many colours and sounds that we know exist beyond the vision of the human senses. Ultraviolet, TV signals, radio signals for example, but we know they exist.

Some people can to some degree attune to the spirit aspect of them selves while still in this life and therefore see and sense anergy and life that is beyond this worlds frequency, since it is itself not of this world. They are called Mediums and psychics.

Simple.

To build a relationship with that aspect of ourselves and all its wonder and enlightenment it brings is part of the point of being here and the point of any spiritual journey. Peace

I think that's the best reply of this question.

To answer your question: It's normally hereditary. Do you have a schizophrenic grandmother or otherwise institutionalized relative in your family history?

I think certain 'mental illnesses' can open pathways to the brain that are normally opened by a lot of practice and meditation. I say this from personal experience. First, my best-friend has various disorders but is extremely psychic. Same goes for my wife's grandmother -- she predicted many things, even the day she would die on. She was actually institutionalized. Reminds me on the thing about red headed, blue eyed people. They can be crazy as banshees but extremely psychic.

A lot of times seeing spirits comes down to over-exaggeration or blaming any visual distortion in being a spirit. I've learned from being a paranormal investigatory that a lot of people that "see" spirits aren't often good skeptics and come in already with a belief or superstition. Otherwise I see spirits all the time... Movement out of the corner of your eye, feeling of strange presents, flashes of outlines of figures.

Be more skeptic. Until I'm in physical form and see a spirit manifest as real as you or I then I will continue to believe that their better explanations for that brief thing I saw -- that I don't even know what it was. Moving shadows and other such things are more likely hallucinations.

You know our brain creates 90% of what we see? 1 in 1 million people probably get this. They just don't get it. This is why we can have OBEs. But I digress.

Depends on how open your third eye is. So basically if you start by seeing auras gradually you'll be able to see spirits too but it's not easy and consumes a lot of energy unless it happens automatically after deep meditation. Sensing them on the other hand is much easier.

Some people are born more sensitive. Also in general children are more sensitive than adults as there is less blockage in their energy.

This is part of the reason but the other part is more physical like the natural talent, openness of the energy channels, etc. The body can affect the mind and the mind can affect the body. That's why some people who believe in this stuff can't see them unless they practice for a long time and some who don't want to do anything with this stuff can't get rid of their talent easily.
