Assignment 11 draft 5 part 3
- 1. Kaya Are we dead yet? These spirits walk around, going about their lives not knowing that they've passed on. They wonder why people ignore them and why nobody comes to visit anymore. This happens more often with old people who've spent their later years by themselves. Example from ‘The others’ the Example from ‘the sixth sense’ old man and woman
- 2. Kaya Unfinished business There can be a number of reasons why certain beings stick around after death. It is simple that the sprit that has died, did not complete something in life and once the work is finished, the deceased usually moves on in peace.
- 3. Kaya Self-appointed guardian angel These are loved ones who stick around after death to watch over someone. It can be a deceased husband watching over his elderly wife during the last of her days. It can be a young mother who died before her time watching over her children as they grow up.
- 4. Kaya Wasting time between lives As in reincarnation. They're waiting for the next life to come around. What better way to waste some time than being a ghost. Coming and going from the planes as you please, enjoying yourself during your sightseeing, visiting old friends to see how they're doing, and the list goes on. They're not here and not there - there just waiting in between.
- 5. Kaya Messenger These are usually in the form of a loved one. It can be a warning of certain danger or future events. It can also be a spirit coming to ease the pain from a grieving loved one. With messengers, the spirit is not always deceased.
- 6. Kaya Still Living These people can be dreaming or having an out-of-body experience (obe). In the case of dreams, the person doesn't usually know they're walking around in the form of a ghost. With intentional obe's, the projector knows what's going on but their intentions are generally harmless.
