Do you think spirit guides are dead people?

[_Darkness_Myth]

I should point out, that while I believe that SG’s are people who have passed over, I don’t believe that the “SG’s” you meet in dreams are the same thing.

When I am talking about my SG I’m never refering to a dream meeting, as far as I know I have never met my SG in a dream.

I believe that the SG’s that manifest in dreams are more often than not, a part of your subconscious and nothing more. Don’t get me wrong I am not saying that they always are just parts of your subconscious either.

in my opinion, it’s a spirit. Sure, you can call it a dead person as well, but it’s a spirit like in kardecism. An angel, by that logic, would be appliable, as a “high level” spirit.

I agree with this. My opinion also lies with what people can prefer that the spirit manifest itself into. Most likely someone they are comfortable with. It’s easier to relate to and accept that way.

btw, what does kardecism mean? I can’t find it in the dictionary.

@Rodrigo

However, I think there’s a slight possiblity that some people have only met things made by their minds, while others really met spirits.

This is a big possibility. I remember having a brief discussion with DM about this same topic.

2- Ooooor the SG IS Wolb. Among other things related to Kardecism, they say that when you dream you leave your body to help people, learn, etc. Maybe Wolb’s spirit goes to Bruno to help him.

I want to say I ALMOST agree with this. I honestly don’t believe that a person could be someone else’s SG when they too are of flesh and blood, not to mention still breathing. As entertaining as the thought might be, it just isn’t feasible. I could see a bond of some type but not a SG.

If they (SG) are people that have passed over than it would be my impression that they have achieved a greater height of light or energy and they have long since been or related to their human form. It couldn’t possibly be just anyone that passed away b/c for the most part they are lost and haven’t found their own way.

I met twice in LD’s a very young girl who gave me some tips and I never had the feeling she was a dead person.

I haven’t met anyone in particular that I can say is a regular DC that have given me some tips. I can say that I’ve heard a man’s voice, the same voice, on a number of occasions. I can never see him but his words make a lot of sense. Some things I’ve listened to and some things I haven’t.

The key to this is that I don’t get the impression he was a dead person either.

I think i will try and ask my SG about this… maybe see if he is someone i knew who died, someone i know who is still alive, or if i never knew him at all but in an earlier or later life… this could be very entertaining…

It’s Allan Kardec’s theory. In 1857, he wrote “the Book of Spirits”, which had a big influence on occultism and his writings led to the movement which was later called spiritism.
