The Connection Between Humans and the Spiritual World

Thus, the way in which the dead want to influence us and how they themselves experience this influence depends very much on the mood of our soul. The influence always occurs, but the nature of the influence depends very much on the mood of our soul. These immediate influences from the dead, which I have described, play into our ordinary ideas borrowed from the environment, into our sensations, into our emotional tendencies, into our temperament, into our habits. But there is a constant interrelationship between what is happening in the realm of those who have passed through the gate of death and our own souls.
