Destiny of Souls
continuity with their physical life.
    Dr. N: Well, it is my understanding that our guides won’t permit us to be in some kind of holding pattern near Earth and go right into a new life. Don’t these souls know they must go through the normal process of returning back to their groups, receiving counseling, studying their lessons and taking some part in the selection of a new body?
    S: (laughs) You’re right, but the guides don’t force those in extreme distress to return home until they see the benefits of doing so.
    Dr. N: Yes, but they won’t give them a new body right away until after some sort of period of readjustment.
    S: (shrugs) Yes, that’s true.
    Dr. N: Is it also true that other disturbed souls don’t want to go back to Earth and won’t go back where they belong in the spirit world either?
    S: That’s right another type … Dr. N: But if both soul types don’t prowl around Earth as discarnates bothering people as ghosts, should I be calling them disturbed when all they want is to be left alone?
    S: They are divergent. Their actions are the result of something unfinished … traumatic … overwhelming. They are unwilling to let go and this conduct is not usual. They won’t talk to their teachers because of the extent of their unhappiness.
     
    66 s Destiny of Souls Dr. N: Why don’t their guides just take charge and pull them up deeper into the spirit world despite their resistance?
    *S: If souls were forced to do what is right for them they would learn nothing from getting into a funk and shutting themselves up from everyone.
    Dr. N: Okay, but I still wonder why the souls who want to come back right away, with no stopovers in the spirit world, can’t just be given a new body immediately?
    S: Can’t you see that placing a disturbed soul into a new body would be totally unfair to a baby just starting life? These souls have a right to be in seclusion, but they will eventually make the decision to ask for assistance. They must come to the conclusion they can’t progress alone. Being given a new body won’t help them.
    Dr. N: Where do the souls go who don’t want to wander the Earth as ghosts but won’t go home?
    S: (ruefully) It’s any space they want to create for themselves. They design their own reality with memories of a physical life. Some souls live in nice places like a garden setting. Others those who have harmed people, for instance design terrible spaces for themselves like a prison, a room with no windows. In these spaces they box themselves in so they can’t experience much light or make contact with anyone. It is self-imposed punishment.
    Dr. N: I have heard that disturbed souls the ones associated with evil are taken into seclusion in the spirit world.
    S; That’s correct, but at least they are ready to face the music and have their energy healed properly with love and care.
    Dr. N: Can you give me some indication of how our guides deal with all types of souls in self-imposed exile?
    S: They give them time to sweat it out. This is a challenge for teachers. They know these souls are concerned about their evaluations and the reactions from their soul groups. They are full of negative
    energy and not thinking clearly. It may take many reassurEarthly Spirits * > 67 *ances by those who wish to help them before these souls agree to give up their self-imposed places of confinement.
    Dr. *N: I assume there are as many techniques of persuasion as there are guides?
    S: Sure … depending upon the range of skill. Some teachers will not go near a disturbed student until that soul is so sick of being in seclusion they voluntarily call for help. This can take quite a while (pause, then continues) Other teachers drop in often for chats.
    Dr. N: Eventually, will all these disturbed souls release themselves?
    S: (pause) Let’s put it this way. Eventually, all will be released one way or another through different forms of encouragement… (laughs) or persuasion.
