BOOK EXCERPT FROM "SPIRITS AND DEATH IN NIAGARA"

     You saw a... what? A ghost? Have you lost your mind? Skeptics might never believe you. True believers, however, will hang on your every word.
     Some people would argue that the world is losing its sense of religion, or that some people are getting lost in what they believe to be religion. To believe in something means that we trust or have faith in something to be true, or to accept a story. To have a strong belief in something means that we have a conviction that something we are told is, in fact, true. Do you believe that ghosts can exist when told a credible enough story, or do you have a strong belief that they are real no matter what anyone says? Are you a skeptic? We live in a largely scientific world where everything has to be proven and documented before we give it any credence. Before embarking on our journey to Niagara, let's take a look at both sides of the paranormal argument, and open our minds to what the believers and the skeptics have to say.
      There are different kinds of ghosts, or spirits that have been defined over the years. To help us learn a little bit more about what we're dealing with, Adam Woog wrote in his book, Poltergeists, that there are several categories of apparitions. There are the people who have an out-of-body experience where living people are able to appear in far away places (to be with loved ones before they die) and they are carried through very strong emotional desires. The most commonly reported ghosts are the ones who stay in specific places for very long periods of time, just as you would find in a famous haunted house. Another group consists of the "crisis apparitions" or those that have died and are sticking around this world to either send a very important message, or to take care of specific matters before they move along to the next world. This only happens once, generally. The fourth category Woog describes, and what many of us are most afraid of, is poltergeists.
     "Poltergeists, then, are apparitions that make noise or that move, lift, or throw objects around. Unlike other types of ghosts, poltergeists are not visible; nor can they converse with the living. Poltergeists make themselves known by creating noise or throwing objects around. (Poltergeists, 12-13) Later in the book he expands a little more to mention that a poltergeist can produce odd and terrifying effects like "blood oozing from pictures that hang on the walls." More commonly they just move furniture around, make strange noises, pull on bed sheets, and play with the lights. Unlike regular hauntings that happen at night, poltergeists can happen by day as well. In some cases, humans have been hurt or held down, bitten or kissed. Typically, a poltergeist...
   

PARALLEL UNIVERSES continued...
By Toni Elizabeth Sar'h Petrinovich

     Off and into the woods she ventured only to find after a short while that the sign posts the forestry service had installed were no longer there; the trees had become burned out stumps and she had no idea where she was. She had not been walking long enough to get lost. She was simply "somewhere else".
     She spent the entire afternoon in the midst of a burned forest, walking around in the detritus looking for the way back to the camp. In her reality, there was no path or camp. By nightfall, she had resigned herself to sleeping alone in this neglected wilderness until she suddenly saw headlights appearing in the distance. She began walking toward them and, as she did so, the environment she was "in" began to become healthy, full grown trees. The signposts reappeared and she walked now on the original path/road she had set out on earlier that day.
     Upon coming to the set of the headlights, it became apparent that the leader had been out driving around looking for her since she had not returned to camp as dusk fell. No one had been able to find her until the headlights intersected with "her reality" and she began walking toward them.
     In both examples here, the same principle applies. Marti and I in the first story and my friend and the leader in the second story were living in our own realities AT THE SAME TIME. We were living in parallel realities entangled in non-locality. We each were in resonance with the reality of our consciousness in our own time/space. Not until something "triggered" us did we intersect with the other person's reality; in my case, the raspberries on the breakfast table and in my friend's case, the headlights on the road.
     Every time you make a decision, you create an effect. The decision exists in one universe/reality and the opposite of that decision exists in another universe/reality. In addition, all other permutations of that decision exist as well. Each and every one of them continues to exist infinitely. They are always available to be accessed by you and anyone else in no space/no time.
     When you are looking for ghosts/spirits, seeing Light Orbs and/or taking pictures of any of these phenomena, what is occurring is that you are merging into their reality and they are merging into your reality. If you question, for instance, why spirits that appear in pictures would be dressed in clothes when you believe that spirits really don't have bodies, you are simply projecting your idea of what they "should be doing" according to your own beliefs about them. In their reality, they are wearing what they wear, doing what they do and the frequency of your wavelength and their frequency have come into resonance. This is why some people experience the "unseen" and others do not.
     This simplified explanation may give you an opportunity to look at what you believe is or is not real. Whatever you have experienced (or not experienced) is a creation of your own frequency. (For those who are devotees of The Secret or the Law of Attraction, this is how it works as well.) If you say, for instance, that Light Orbs do not exist, you are correct - in your reality. In someone else's reality (mine for one) they are very real; appear in full daylight both on and off camera and speak to me as well.
     Stating that something does not exist because it is living in a parallel world that is outside of your frame of reference is nothing less than short-sighted. Not only are you saying that something does not exist because you do not experience it, you are also saying that it does not exist for others, as well.
     Everyone's reality is real to them. It is relative to their conditioning, their belief system, how open they are to new experiences and how much fear/love they actually live in and with everyday. Allow yourself to open to the idea that every possibility that could exist already does. Any possibility you wish to experience is simply waiting to experience you.
