http://forums.hardwarezone.com/showthread.php?t=933807, illustrates how commonly most people allow fear into their hearts, minds and soul. Little do most pple realize, it is the fear itself that is the most damaging, rather than the object that is supposedly feared.
In the 'scary' photo and story described in that thread, the statement, "
dont' look at the eyes of the girl too long, for if she looks back at you, then...", is only out to create and spread fear, and has nothing to do with the truth, or to be precise, the highest possible pathway or manifestation of this energy. Afterall, truth is subject to the free will of the individual consciousness.
In terms of the story of the photo, even if, hypothetically speaking, it is actually true that the girl in the photo is already dead, why the heck would her consciousness necessarily be an earthbound spirit, or in scientific terminology, a psychotic post mortem (ie. psychologically imbalanced after death)?
Sure, her dead physical body might appear mournful or scary to some people, but that has no bearing whatsoever to the state of her consciousness or soul, which has since departed. In all likelihood, as the people around the body, eg. family and relatives, are all sad and mournful, and set up this ridiculous ritual of after-death marriage, her soul might very well already have been adjusted, balanced and observing the scene in peace, understanding and love, perhaps even gently amused by the silly supersititions of her family and relatives doing the silly ritual.
The more likely case, of course, would be that she, or the majority of consciousnesses recently discarnated from the physical body, would be more busy elsewhere in other, higher consciousness focus levels or extraphysical realms, reuniting with her soul family and other loved ones, discussing the achievements and karmic issues of her lifetime just completed with her guides, helpers and evolutionary orientor, preparing for her next incarnation or lifetime, and so on.
The last thing she would want to do, is to remain stuck near her empty physical body, as a silly, disfigured, vengeful, mournful ghost haunting and scaring others. Why the heck would that achieve?
But yes, there are unfortunately, some souls who, usually due to a traumatic death, or deeply troubled emotional and psychological state of mind just before death, trap themselves in various difficult psychological states that continue after death, what religions would call the 'hells'. These are the psychotic post mortems. But it is always a matter of time before these souls are retrieved, helped, healed and rebalanced back to health.
The point of this post being, it is always the fear (false evidence appearing as real) itself that is the real problem, not the supposed object of the fear. As soon as you can transmute this, you begin to see things clearly for what they are, and higher opportunities open up for you.
For the photo in question, imagine for a moment, that the girl is yourself, or your past life. Or even a loved one (from a past life, or in the present life, no difference, your present life loved ones were also your past life loved ones; love is forever). Instead of that silly statement trying to induce fear. Notice how the feeling of the entire photo changes dramatically into something positive instead. If your heart is willing to love, and your soul willing to be light, then you will begin to wield the power to transmute fear into love, darkness into light.
