Ghosts, spirits…The inhabitants of the supernatural world, always seem to be a hot topic for discussion. The debate can never end. There are people who strongly believe that ghosts and spirits do exist and so does a world parallel to ours which is still very much unexplained and mysterious. On the other hand, there are people who laugh it off and choose to believe that ghosts and spirits are just a creation of one’s imagination. But, if you are a strong believer in spirits and would want to communicate with them to experience what an out of the world experience in the true sense feels like, there are a few weird, successful, tried and tested methods that have worked for a few people from different parts of the world. Bought together for you in one article, here are 10 successful ways to make contact with the world of ghosts and spirits. Here you go.

10.Meditation

It is said that imagination is what is the link between the human and spirit world. Meditation is the most basic way to connect to spirits. All you need to do is close your eyes, sit in erect position, imagine a white light protecting you. Pray to God and after you’re done, invite the spirit through speech. Make sure you communicate well and get through the message that you don\t have any wrong intentions. Keep your mind blank and concentrate. This is the hardest part because the mind keeps on choosing things to think on 24/7. You really have to concentrate hard to be successful in inviting spirits through meditation. You also need to be patient as impatience and anxiety only mean that your mind is not blank after all.

9.Flashlight

This is again one of the easiest methods that has also supposedly worked well to establish contact with spirits. All you need is a flashlight, the one which can be turned on and off by twisting the head lamp. All you have to do is twist the flashlight to a point exactly after which it will switch on, very close to being switched on but still off. Keep it face down on any table or hard sturdy surface that won’t wobble. Sit back, concentrate, imagine the white light, pray to god-the usual procedure. Invite the spirit and very clearly communicate how it will answer your questions-for example, the flashlight being turned on  as a yes and the flashlight being turned off as a no. Be open to believing that spirits exist. Keep your mind relaxed and don’t get spooked out. Getting spooked out or scared will disconnect the contact you manage to establish.

8.Digital Recorder

Very high frequency sounds are inaudible to the human ears. These sounds can be easily caught in recorders. Digital recorders are apt instruments to establish contact with the spirit world. You follow the similar above procedure-imagining the white light, praying, a sense of belief about the existence of spirit, calm and concentrated mind and yes, finally an invitation to the spirits. Push the record button and talk to the spirits, invite them, call them to give some signs. Keep your sessions between 10 minutes to 20 minutes when you start out. You might hear some unidentified voices when you play the sound you recorded. Keep repeating patiently if you do not succeed at first.

7.Table Tipping

When you have a group of like minded people who believe in the idea of ghosts and want to strongly communicate with them you can try the table tipping method. In this method, the group of people willing to establish contact, sit around a round or square, sturdy table that doesn’t wobble. Everyone keep their palms face down on the surface of the table. Make sure you do not apply excess pressure to cause any movement. Imagine a white light protecting all the members and all the members do the same too. Pray to God. Keep your mind calm and concentrate hard. Every one of the group members needs to concentrate, even a little distraction may lead to failure in establishing the contact. Encourage the spirit to come. Ask the spirit to tip the table to indicate its presence. Once the spirit indicates its presence make clear to it the means by which it has to answer your questions, for example, tip the table twice for a yes and tip it once for a no.

6.Automatic Writing

You need loads of paper and a pencil or pen for this. You need to first meditate to get yourself in that mood or mind state. You need to make sure your mind is open to believing in spirits. Imagine the white light, pray, concentrate. Take the paper and pencil in your hand, invite the spirit to come and make its presence felt. You need to be immensely patient and wait till you get the necessary signs and till your pencil or pen automatically starts writing. It is usually a string of thoughts that start playing inside your head that you automatically start putting on paper which may be of future events or about the life of the spirit you are communicating with itself. There are people who believe that automatic writing doesn’t exist and whatever is written is all made up. There are a lot of people who have challenged this method of establishing contact with ghosts.

5.Downswing Pendulum

The downswing pendulum is a pendulum made of crystal attached to a string. You hold it with the string, the crystal pendulum dangling. Set your mind state. Concentrate. Imagine the white light surrounding you for protection, pray to God. Invite the spirits, make sure you communicate that you don’t mean any harm. Encourage the spirit to make its presence felt by indicating movement of the pendulum. Make sure the pendulum is still at first. If you see movement, note the movement. It could be in circles(clockwise or anticlockwise) or a straight line(left to right). You could ask it to indicate the movement for a Yes or a No and not the movements. You can go ahead and ask yes-no questions you wish to. At any point you feel negative or threatened, put the pendulum down, walk out of the room, catch your breath, share a laugh over something, drink some coffee and push it out of your head. Don’t let it stay on your mind. The downswing pendulum has been one of the most effective ways to communicate with spirits.

4.Scrying

Scrying refers to making contact with the spirit world by the means of a crystal ball or a mirror or any shiny surface. You take a crystal ball and if that isn’t available you could simply take a mirror. Sit in darkness. Light a candle. In the process of scrying you cannot contact any spirit but you can contact the spirits of specific people you have on your mind-maybe the spirit of your loved ones. After you light the candle, you sit in a meditative state of mind inviting the spirit you want to. Implied it is by now, that you need to protect yourself by imagining the white light and praying before you begin. You concentrate calmly and patiently for signs. The spirits you’ve wanted to establish contact with will show on the surface you’ve chosen, it might show you a series of events maybe of the past or future on the crystal ball or mirror. This process is successfully executed after many attempts. You need to keep trying and be patient for experiencing this.

3.Seance

Seance again is a method that needs a group of people to come together to execute it. People who want to establish contact, sit together in a circle, holding each others hands. All the members need to imagine the white light and concentrate on the task of inviting the spirits. It is necessary to be calm and not get spooked out. Getting distracted will disrupt the process. The spirit can be asked to indicate its presence by a particular movement. It can be asked to answer yes-no questions by giving it ways to indicate the signals for yes and no accordingly.

2.Psychics

Psychics have a better sense of the supernatural. They have the correct knowledge and ways to tackle spirits and how to do it without things backfiring. Doing it all by oneself is tough and also dangerous at times but doing it with the help of a psychic is one of the safest and sanest ways to connect with the parallel supernatural world that runs along with the world we live in. So, in case you are in dire need of making contact with the spirit world, contacting a psychic would be a better and again one of the most foolproof options available.

1.Ouija Board

The Ouija board is easily available in toy shops. It has alphabets from A to Z written on it along with Yes and No written on it too. This is till date the most common method that has worked successfully in establishing contact with ghosts. You sit down with the Ouija board and follow the same initial procedure-Imagining the white light, praying to god, inviting the spirits and encouraging them to make their presence felt. Once you feel their presence you either ask them yes/no questions or questions that would need them to spell out few words with the help of the letters printed on the Ouija board.
