Ghost Theory
.
Keep in mind OMPI is evidence based, and the following theories are just that…Theories. There is NO evidence that I know of that would back up any of them.
There is evidence available that we are not alone here, we just don't know for sure what or who is here with us.
Be very cautious of anyone who tells you that they know who is haunting you, at this point there is absolutely no evidence that would support such a claim. We all want to believe that mom or dad are visiting us, but the truth is we just don't know. This is what true paranormal investigators are working on, the truth about who is here with us and obtaining the evidence to back it up.
Why are ghosts here? There are several theories on this subject, the one that I personally feel makes the most sense is the "Fear of Judgment". The theory is that most people in life fear judgment, and after death this fear would be even more intense; let’s face it, if you are a religious person the judgment we face after death is the ultimate. There are no excuses and we are taught that there are retributions. So it would make sense that this would be one reason spirits would choose to stay on this side, given we have a choice.
Non-existence theory: The theory of a non-existence spirit comes from the fear to cross over into another realm after death because it may believe it will cease to exist. Put yourself in the same position. You know you exist in the here and now. You have a sense of being, an awareness if you will. “To be or not to be”. We also know living people fear the unknown.
We can speculate spirits may have fears also. In theory, remember we take with us who we are. So if we fear the unknown while alive, wouldn’t we fear the unknown after death? Would our conscience contain the same fears after death? Would we fear not being? “To be or not to be”.
Now with that being said; as a paranormal investigator, and I’m happy to say, a proud member of the living. How do we, the living, understand and comprehend crossing over if we have no idea what it means. Mainly, because we have not had to cross over yet. The unknown again.
Crossing over can mean several different things to several different living people. If you are a religious person perhaps to cross over means to leave this world, as we know it, and join our lost loved ones in another kingdom. To me crossing over to another sense of being is very possible. Look at it this way, if the number of people who have died, decided not to cross over don’t you think we would have a lot more collisions between the living and the dead than we are having.
The object attachment theory, this theory is of the line of thinking that the spirit is attached to a person, location, or object. Emotions are very powerful and love and jealousy are two of the most powerful and tend to go hand in hand. The spirit can be attached due to one or both of these emotions. Love of a person, location or object and the unwillingness to share would be a powerful force to keep ones spirit here.
The confusion theory is the theory that the spirit is confused due to a sudden and unexpected death and do not realize they are dead or they are confused as to what to do next.
The confusion theory leads me into the question, why do ghosts cause noises and disruption? Well, try and put yourself in their position, if you were living or staying in a location for whatever reason and everyone not only ignored you, but would look right through you like you didn’t exist, and no matter how loud you tried to speak, or even when you stood right in front of them they still, in your view, ignored you. Wouldn’t you become more and more aggressive in your attempts to get someone to pay attention to you? I know I would. So an active location does not necessarily mean we are dealing with a malevolent spirit, it may just be trying to get someone, anyone, to pay attention to them.
Unfinished Business Theory: This theory is, the person died an untimely death and was unable to finish something that was a passion for the person while alive and has deemed it impossible to leave incomplete. Or the spirit does not feel they have had enough time in this world and refuses to move on. Another possibility is the spirit has a message for loved ones and refuses to move on until this goal is achieved.
