Hi,
Is this brief desription of ghost correct?
Ghost?
.
One who commits suicide will have to remain as a ghost for the period of time that one's body was supposed to exist. A ghost is nothing but a person with no physical body. our body is made up of two coverings, the subtle body and the The gross body is physicals and the subtle body is made up of the mind intelligencend identification
It is the subtle body which accompanies the soul into the next body at the time of death.
When one commits suicide, one brings one's physical body to an end prior to it having completed it's allotted time.
Thus if one was supposed to live for 100 years, one's next body will be waiting for you after that 100 years. If for some reason one were to commit suicide at the age of 50, then one's next body will not be ready, and one will remain in an ethereal state until the balance 50 years of existence pass.
This state of existing as a ghost is a great suffering for the individual, as they lack the senses through which to act. The desires to act remain, as the mind, intelligence and identification of the subtle body are still existing. But lacking a physical body with senses, it becomes impossible to satisfy the desires one has.
This leads to a hellish state of existence for the soul.
Though the soul leaves the body at the time of death, sometimes due to tremendous attachment to one's physical body, the soul will attempt to re-enter the dead body. It is very hard for materialistic people to give up their bodily attachments and possessions. As such, they sometimes remain around their dead body in the form of ghosts. A ghost is simply an individual who exists only in his subtle body composed of mind intelligence and identification The subtle body accompanies us even after the death of the physical body.
In many other religion the bodies of the dead are cremated to break any attachment that may remain for the soul after death. This allows the departed person to continue onwards on their path.
God is the infinte Soul .
