18. How to Deal With Visitations

Although the phenomena of visitations by spirit are rare, there is no end to the misery of persons who fall in these unfortunate situations. Experience tells us that two-thirds of the reported indicates of haunting are figments of imagination of the subject because of fear. As mentioned earlier, because of weak will, the person concerned is troubled by an imaginary spirit of one's own creation. The root cause of this imaginary creation is ignorance, educational and social backwardness, weakness of inner-self and superstition. For an individual, who does not lack courage and makes it a habit to investigate the cause of fear, such imaginary ghosts cease to exist. Illusions like the noise created by rats, branches and foliages of plants simulating movements of human body in the dark, disturbances created by monkey and cats etc. are at times mistaken for activities of ghosts. Some mischievous or cunning individual may also make arrangements to simulate a visitation. If seriously investigated, reasons for such superior's phenomena can be found and misgivings removed.

It is possible to get relief from tow-thirds of such problems of visitations by educating people through a forceful revolution against superstition. Almost half of the remaining factual incidents of haunting are because of the cloning by the bio-electrical particles dispersed by human bodies. These bioelectrical robots are effective in particular places, within limited spatial limits, and that too for an individual who stays at that place in isolation. Spirits lose much of their power of manifestation in a crowed, since the bio-electric clones have limited energy. They generally make their presence felt by such insignificant acts as by making themselves visible, producing some sound or enacting a scene. The terrorized person coming across these phenomena harms his own self in fear. Otherwise most of these images produced by bio-electric particles do not have the capacity to help or harm anyone.

Houses where visitations are reported should be properly cleaned and disinfected. It would be helpful to fill the closed apartment with smoke created by burning herb like Neem. The Nepalese remedy of performing Yagna is found very efficacious. Religious rituals like Jagran, singing of hymns with accompaniment of musical instruments, mass prayers, sounding conch-shells also help in expelling such images of ghosts.

To begin with a patient suffering from hallucination of spirit may be treated by giving him a healthy invigorating diet. Herbal medicines, such ad Brahmi, Shatavari, Anwla, Salabh, Gorakhmundi, Shankhapushpi, Bach etc. and massaging head and body with Brahmi and Anwla oil are helpful. If a person is feeling reluctant to stay at some place, it is advisable to shift him to a place of his choice. As far as possible, an attempt may be made to keep the patient, relaxed, contented and happy. A sympathetic attitude and brain tonic would show a remarkable recovery in such patients.

At times, a person believes in being possessed by a powerful spirit against which the patient feels utterly helpless. Such weak-willed patients are required to be treated by enacting a make believe play to make him satisfied that the so-called ghost has been pacified and forced to depart. Thus the illusion of the spirit is removed by crating an equally forceful illusion about its exit. Persons feeling possessed by spirits are generally weak-willed and highly emotional. They can be set right by some awe-inspiring dramatic devices.

The so-called occult phenomena in pancetta, automatic writing and other such things are nothing but a reflection of individual or collective power of mind of the person or persons participating in the act. It is doubtful whether a departed spirit can communicate through material. The readers are advised to desist from such activities. It is also not proper to show undue interest in ghosts and spirits on one's own. However, if some one falls a prey to them it is necessary to make an Endeavour to get rid of the evil.
