What can be the symptoms of a ghost affecting a person?

Table of contents

1. Introduction

Spiritual research has shown that the entire world is affected by ghosts at some time or the other in their life. About 30% of the world’s population is possessed by ghosts. Being affected or possessed by ghosts reduces a person’s capacity insidiously in progressively increasing degrees. Hence it is imperative that one gets to know about it at the earliest, so that remedial measures can be undertaken.

But as process of being affected by a ghost happens at a spiritual level (i.e. beyond the understanding of the five senses, mind and intellect) whether a person is affected or possessed or not, can in actuality only be understood by Saints above the 70% spiritual level or by persons with an advanced sixth sense. As most people lack both in spiritual level and advanced sixth sense, the majority of affected or possessed people are unaware of their affected state.

In this article we have listed some of the various symptoms that are typically seen when ghosts affect the various systems of the body. These same symptoms can be seen in routine illnesses affecting the concerned systems. So when the symptoms are unexplained or do not go away despite best conventional treatments or come up frequently, at an intellectual level we can think of the possibility of them being due to ghosts.

2. What are the physical symptoms of being affected by ghosts?

We have categorized the symptoms for easy referral.

2.1. The five sense organs

Foul taste in the mouth.
Experience of eyes being pulled inside, irritation in the eyes, etc.
Dryness of lips, mouth and throat.
Due to the raja-tama in the ghosts a sticky layer is formed on the face and body of the affected person.
Oily skin.
Rashes on the skin.
Eerie feeling of being touched.

2.2. Pain

Pinprick sensation.
Headaches and migraines.
Severe backache, body ache and inability to move.
Experience of strangulation.

2.3. Symptoms related to the nine body openings

When in the proximity of a saattvik influence, the ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.) leave the body through any of the nine openings, i.e. two eyes, two nostrils, two ears, mouth, penis/vagina and anus. The person may experience as if gas is going out of any of these openings or one may experience cough, yawning, burping, sneezing, etc. as per the opening involved.

2.4. Digestive system

Not allowing the person to have his meals: Loss of appetite, nausea on sight of food, feeling better after getting away from food.
Sharpened appetite, frequent hunger and having heavy meals: The Absolute Fire element is required to digest food. As man consists predominantly of the absolute Earth element, he cannot digest a lot of food. But if he is possessed by ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.) he can do so. As the ghosts consist of the Absolute Air element they can digest the food by using the Absolute Fire element. Refer to the article on the Absolute Cosmic Elements.

2.5. Reproductive system

Inability to have children.
Recurring miscarriages.
Stillbirths

2.6. Accidents

Electric shock
Domestic accidents such as heated oil flying from the frying pan
Repeated vehicle accidents in a certain location

2.7. Motor organs

Fidgeting and restlessness due to increase in basic raja subtle component
Contorted movements
Tics

2.8. Makings sounds

Making moaning and weird sounds and not remembering anything afterwards.
Making animal sounds.
The ghost speaking through the possessed person in a voice of the opposite sex.

2.9. Effect on vital energy

Vital energy (praanshakti) is the life sustaining energy of the body and is subtle.

Vital energy in a spiritually evolved person and that in a person not spiritually evolved

	Percentage of vital energy
1. Spiritually evolved person	130
2. Person not spiritually evolved	100

Amount of vital energy according to the extent of distress by ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.)

Extent of distress	Amount of vital energy (percentage)
5	95
10	90
20	70
30	50
40*	30**

* In the present times generally the maximum distress possible is 40%
50% distress means medium distress
70% distress means severe distress
Distress will include both affection and possession

** The reduction in vital energy is because it is utilized in fighting the ghosts. When it decreases below 30%, the person dies.

Inability to meditate when vital energy is reduced: For a person to meditate, concentration of the mind is a must. When the vital energy is reduced, the mind does not have the energy to do anything. Hence meditation is also impossible. But nevertheless there is overwhelming of emotions and consequent fear, as this requires very little vital energy and the ghosts themselves generate these thoughts.

3. Mental distress and its symptoms

When a person is affected or possessed by ghosts, he displays the following mental symptoms:

Not feeling like speaking to a colleague or family member without any reason.
Feeling like distancing oneself from a colleague or family member without any reason.
Behaviour contrary to one’s nature.
Intermittent crying, startle without any reason, anxiety, depression, fear, mental illness, suicidal thoughts, etc. The ghosts have to expend just 5% of their energy to scare a person by showing him skulls, frightening images, etc.
Doubts or negative thoughts: Ghosts put doubts and negative thoughts in the mind of the person so as to destabilize him, cause restlessness and irritability. Some examples of negative thoughts are:
- Feeling like strangulating someone.
- Increase in ego.
- Reduction of faith in God
Anger about others: When a person affected or possessed by ghosts feels anger towards another person without any substantial reason, then it is most likely to be due to the ghost. In such circumstances one should learn to disregard the anger.
Feeling like harming others: A possessed person can feel like harming himself or others. Also in the course of spiritual remedies to exorcise, the person may feel like harming others. In such cases at the very onset, when the possession is not quite complete and some control is present on self, the person should let others know of these feelings. Otherwise once the possessed person manifests his control over himself is lost and he can harm the person treating him.

4. Sexual symptoms

Increased or decreased sexual drive.
If a female ghost possesses a woman, it attracts other male ghosts either directly or through the medium of other males possessed by male ghosts. Such women do not feel the need for getting into a formal relationship with the opposite sex like getting married. They come up with some excuse or the other to avoid such relationships.

4.1. Homosexual attraction

The main reason behind the gay orientation of some men is that they are possessed by female ghosts. It is the female ghost in them that is attracted to other men. Conversely the attraction to females experienced by some lesbians is due to the presence of male ghosts in them. The ghost’s consciousness overpowers the person’s normal behaviour to produce the homosexual attraction. Spiritual research has shown that the cause for homosexual preferences lie predominantly in the spiritual realm.

Physical causes (5%): Due to hormonal changes.
Psychological causes (10%): Having an experience with a person of the same sex as a teenager or young adult that was pleasurable and therefore wanting to experience it again.
Spiritual causes (85%): Mainly ghosts.

5. Sleep disturbances

Excessive sleep

6. Marital disharmony

If one of the spouse is saattvik, then the ghost in the other spouse will experience distress when in close proximity of the spouse, because it cannot tolerate the saattviktaa in him.

Even if both are possessed by ghosts, this too can lead to quarrels.

Avoiding visit to Saints, Holy pilgrimage sites: Persons affected or possessed by ghosts avoid visiting Saints, Holy places or temples, etc. Some are forced to manifest in such saattvik environment. To become manifest is in a way to be stripped of some of their black energy. Hence to avoid this, the ghosts leave the possessed person outside the area of influence of that Holy place or person and repossess him when he comes out of it.

9.5. Distress due to chanting the Name of God

Forgetting about chanting
Inability to chant
Headache while or after chanting

10. Summary

Ghosts can cause a variety of symptoms in people affected or possessed by them.
The symptoms mimic symptoms of physical or psychological illnesses or other worldly problems like financial problems.
The diagnosis of the real root cause (i.e. ghosts) can be made only by Saints and by those with highly advanced sixth sense.
In the absence of the above, we can intellectually surmise that the probable cause of the problem is ghosts when its origin is unexplained or when it is not alleviated despite best conventional measures.
The diagnosis is fairly clear if the problem goes away with spiritual healing remedies.
Regular spiritual practice as per the six basic principles is the best spiritual healing remedy.
