Poltergeist

How many of you out there have seen the famous movie? If you have heard the phrase “They’re Heeeeerrreee,” you have just heard a quote from the movie Poltergeist. Contrary to popular belief, a poltergeist is not actually spiritual in nature.  What you hear about them in many cases is correct. The moving objects around the room with bangs and crashes. This is why they are called poltergeist. The name is actually German and it translates to noisy ghost.

However, this is actually a misleading statement. A poltergeist is not a ghost at all. The phenomenon of a poltergeist is actually the manifestation of human telekinetic ability. This origin is primarily from adolescent girls going through a strong or traumatic emotional state. It can also be young boys, but the research has shown that the majority of the time it is caused by young women. The activity that occurs is completely subconscious. The person that causes the activity is generally not even aware that they are causing it.

This display of telekinesis is most definitely a testament to the human minds power. Poltergeist activity can be extreme. Not just moving objects and sounds, but the disruption of an entire household. The activity would include such things as doors slamming and books flying off of shelves etc. People have been known to be thrown down or even across a room. The activity has the ability to be extremely powerful and extremely dangerous.

It is amazing to hear some tales of poltergeist activity from witnesses who have experienced it. What is more amazing is the fact that this immense mental display of power is occurring through the subconscious mind of a child.

If the untrained innocent mind of a child is capable of such power and ability, imagine what it would mean for the mature adult who understands the ability they possess. As human beings, as much as we train and strengthen our bodies ultimately we are still quite frail. The telekinetic ability that our subconscious minds are capable shows that we can be much more.

The fact that we are capable of such ability is both an inspiring and terrifying thought. With such ability at our finger tips every one of us is capable of wonderful things, but the other side of the coin is that we are also capable of terrible things. We haven’t begun to tap into the essence of what we are capable of. Saying that our young and inexperienced are capable of such a destructive power with no awareness of it just goes to show that we are not ready to understand what we can really do.

Though the poltergeist phenomenon is not spirit activity it is very much of a paranormal nature as it breaks the confines of what we know to be “normal.”
