Most of us believer's would come to recognize a ghost as the spirit of someone who has died and passed on. But are they simply just lost souls or some other scientific phenomenon? The question also prevails on how and why these wandering energies are among us today. We've all heard of the classic haunting and ghost stories, but what and where does it all derive from? Prepare to be enthused as you take a look at my theory on ghosts.
If we look closely in to this unexplained phenomena, we must first try to identify exactly what a ghost is. We mustn't get ghosts confused with demonic forces or strange life-saving entities (if you believe in such). When we say, "ghost," we should understand that this is the left-over, so to speak, haunting energy of a being. When I say haunting, it does not necessarily mean in an evil or bad way. To haunt simply can mean to inhabit, visit, or appear in a ghost form, it's not just there to cause upset.
We see ourselves always pointing in the direction that a ghost is a definite spirit. I beg to differ. Being that nothing is proven, it is still viable that a ghost may not quite be a lost soul at all. Maybe this replica of the dead comes from something more anatomic or scientific. We must all realize that our bodies are made up of millions of electro currents produced by the nervous system and brain which provide us with our senses. The soul or spirit should be believed as something totally different compared to these currents. Since the law of physics says, "Matter cannot be destroyed nor created," then where do these currents go when someone dies?
We always notice that ghosts form around the area of a horrific death. Taking this into concern, let's try to dig a little deeper on the subject. Many of us already know that we only use 10% of potential in our brains. Therefore, many extraordinary potential happenings may form to discharge out of our bodies under rare circumstances. We should put into thought that these happenings might occur due to a horrific death or deadly accident of a human being.
Let's think outside the box for a moment. Is it possible that when our bodies are so frightened, knowing that death is imminent, that we sometimes discharge these replica electro current's out of our nervous system? I would come to believe so. This hypothesis would imply that this "energy" is simply that of our biological makeup- not our true souls or spirits. If we believe in having a spirit or soul then we should believe that it's not a form of any matter nor a wandering ghost. As for the currents in our brain and nervous system, we should believe this to be of actual matter. For some unexplained reasons, under extreme circumstances, the human anatomy creates an electro symbolic replica, or as we like to call it, a ghost. Our souls in turn can then be related to individual beliefs. As for the electric energy we all hold within us, we have a chance of not becoming, but rather creating our own ghost like the many others that still haunt today.
