Afraid Of Ghosts

[Guest Guest]

I am really scared of ghosts, just by the thought of it terrifies me. I am also scared to pray I have heard people that have seen ghosts trying to scare them while they are doing paath to simran. This fear is ruining my life. I can't sleep at night and I don't know what to do. I know most people will say this is a test but I am ready to fail the test if it means I won't see any ghosts ever. What do I do?

I am sorry if I said anything wrong

Do not fear man,

just tell the ghosts (if they exist), how powerful is our beloved Wahiguru, at whose Charan Kamal we have placed ourselves, and they shall flee away.

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh! If you ever see a ghost trying to scare you tell them to get out, and let them know that Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji is far greater than them. Don't be scared to follow Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji and Vaheguru, rather be afraid of losing the opportunity to follow Hukam. Just let the ghosts know that they can't touch you! Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

Ghost are regular folks who are dead but are earthbound spirits. Ghost often attach themselves to a place or material possessions. People who refuse to move into the light after their death become Ghosts due to their free will (choice) due to attachments. Ghost need the emotional energy generated by living to fuel their existence. Ghost usually hang around in high drama areas like theaters, bars, emergency rooms etc rather than cemeteries. People need to check their emotional energy as we know Indian people have too much drama in their lives. Joint families, Saas- Bahu and other control freaks issues, unemployment, high rate of depression. Parents putting kids down and kids literally believing their parents and peers. India is a ghosts heaven. So please check your energy. Do things that raise your vibration like Simran, paath, seva....they will be nowhere you are. Its your energy you can give it a promotion or demotion i.e. attract or repel ghosts.

I was always scared of ghosts, i was about 12 that time when i was lying on the bed and someone try to grab my foot, i just turn on the light and no family member was in my room at all.

IT terrified me , since then I started to move to oaaths, gurbani

But then there was a time i was in tenth grade, if i need to per at night, i was so scared of ghosts that i call my mom to turn then light on and go with me

My mom have to sleep near me while i study at night, i was scared very much

But with gods grace nd understanding of gurbani and listening to mahapurkhs all the time, i was totally scared of nothing at all, i am now 27. Really I surprised myself that i am not afraid of any stuff now, love for satguru ji is increasing day by day now, trying to get near satguru ji now ??

Ghost is nothing but the hukam of guru ji

All matter is made up of God

We are made up of God, God is the basic element of all matter, there is God in every tiny particle

Think of what omnipresent means ?

Means if u take small tiny particle of sand(for example)

Cut it into million pieces, Guru sahib is present in all pieces

Now take one from it

And make further billion nd trillion pieces , nd pick up one of it, Guru Granth sahib is prevailing in all pieces

Further take one and anyhow make its more trillion pieces, still HE, guru granth sahib ji, the 10th sachepatshah, the Waheguru or simply say waheguru, will still be in that small pieces.

So now what is ghosts made up of?

Nothing what God himself, then why to fear from God?

Always think of yourself sitting or standing near Guru Granth Sahib ji, always feel u r in hajoori of sachepatshah ji, always sing loudly when u r in fear the same tuk over again

Gur mere sang sdaa hai naale

Gur nere sang sdaa hai naale

Gur mere sang sdaa hai naale

Nd while singing feel u r near satguru ji??

Why are you afraid of them, what do you think they will do? Praying will help your anxiety as you are having panic attacks, you have to beat the fear. The only thing that will help you is Gods name.

Just because you heard of somebody's experience, doesn't mean it's going to happen to you. Otherwise you will be comparing every other persons life to your own, and it doesn't work like that.

What is happening, is the fear is stopping and discouraging you from doing paat and simran. I went through a phase like that, but I actually experienced some negative things which were not part of my imagination, so that in effect created fear inside me. . So like you at the time, I was discouraged from Gurbani, but you have only heard it, so don't worry.

Somebody told me to carry on doing as much as I can, and not fear as nothing can touch you. Where there is trust in Waheguru, fear departs too.

There is but one God. True is His Name, creative His personality and immortal His form. He is without fear sans enmity, unborn and self-illumined. By the Guru's grace He is obtained.

True He is even now and True He verily, shall be, O Nanak!

Simran will help you and get rid of the fear. Do not be afraid of Gurbani and simran. Do as much as you can, and besides nothing has happened with you, so why fear something that's not there? When the mind is weak, thus fear plants itself.

"What to do?"

Now you have to get rid of the fear out of your mind and make it strong.

Do your Ardas to Waheguru to protect you, and the fear will depart. There is nothing higher than Waheguru, leave it to them to sort it out and don't worry.

This is a good shabad for fear and anxiety, it's sung at the Sarab Rog ka Aukhad Naam Camps:

If you search in YouTube, Sarab Rog ka Aukhad Naam, try to do in same rhythm, that will relax your mind too.

[Guest Singh]

Try leaving sukhmani sahib on in your room 24/7. Just lower the volume a bit before you go to sleep.

[simran345]

The Gupt reply of listening to Sukhmani Sahib Ji is good too, it's not showing yet but it's just be put on.
