ONCE AGAIN ROB GREAT TOPIC MY FRIEND .
We have free will. We make choices on a daily basis. So do Earthbound Spirits. The Earthbound Spirit has to make a choice to leave and go to the other side. When there is trust between the ghost and those who are trying to help, efforts to help the ghost move on will be more effective. Our team will call on the other side to send over someone that the Earthbound Spirit knew and trusted in life to come over and get him and take him back to the other side. If we know who the ghost is and anything about their history, we may be able to suggest someone. I often request that a beloved grandparent come over and get the Earthbound Spirit. The grandparent/grandchild relationship is often less conflicted than the parent/child or husband/wife relationship. The last thing we want is to call on someone the spirit had a hostile relationship with to come and get him! We have had considerable success in getting grandparents to come and fetch their family member gone astray. Of course, the key to whether or not the spirit release has worked is whether or not paranormal activity stops. If there is no activity after a few months, we generally feel that the ghost has crossed over and close out the case.
Over the years, we have encountered a few ghosts who knew darn well they were dead, but were so attached to the earthly plain, they would not leave. The attitude is: "This is my place. I'm not leaving. In fact, you don't belong here and I'd like you to leave." The principle of free will continues to apply. This kind of ghost is much more resistant to our efforts. He will not leave until he is darn good and ready. We may not be able to help, as much as we would like to. The ghost might have to come to an insight on his own before he will leave, because he has no intention of listening to us
