Vaishnavism Paranormal Belief

Vaishnavism Paranormal Belief is based on Hindu paranormal belief which accepts the existence of ghosts and spirits as these are considered to be poor souls who because of some previous curse or terrible sin such as suicide are suspended in the between what is considered the higher worlds and earth.

It is considered that “good spirits” are simply awaiting the completion of their punishment and will be released from this dimension while “evil spirits” will continue to be punished.

If one is good they are reincarnated to a higher orerd and if one is bad they are reincarnated to a lower order.These evil spirits are believed to inhabit desolate places, empty buildings, ancient ruins, branches of tress and especially in grave yards.

Vaishnavism paranormal belief is that evil spirits seek and bother people of impure minds and unclean habits.

The good spirits are to be found near places where religious ceremonies are performed or religious discourses given. They do not cause harm and may help as required.

There are tantric practices that speak to the possibility of the transfer of a Jiva’s vital energy into a dead body in order to temporarily revive it for certain rituals. It is also believed that a suspended soul may be taken control of to perform magic to cause harm to others. It is also possible to drive away those possessed with these evil spirits by using magic and rituals.

Vaishnavism is a sect of the Hindu religion which differs in that it worships Vishnu or his associated avatars, principally as Rama and Krishna, as the original and supreme God. God is recognized as Vishnu and often as Narayana, Krishna and Vasudeva.

Although it is monotheistic in its belief system it still makes reference to other Hindu deities such as Shiva. Shiva being the God principally worshipped by many Hindus.

The followers are referred to as Vaishnava(s) or Vaishnavites. A large percentage of Hindus are Vaishnavas, with the vast majority living in India.

Awareness, recognition, and growth of the belief has significantly increased outside of India in recent years. The principal belief of Vishnu-centered sects is the identification of Vishnu or Narayana as the one supreme god.

This belief contrasts with the Krishna-centered traditions, in which Krishna is considered to be the supreme god and the source of all avataras.
