The secret for living in loving communion with good spirits is love. Love is what binds us with our ancestors and with heavenly spirits who wish to help us in fulfilling our mission.
There's much to be said about this topic. Here I share some tips based on the practice of my own life.
- Many people in spirit world are hungry for spiritual food. The main way to share with them what you receive is to speak it out loudly to them. You can read spiritual texts. You can speak or ask others to speak and give testimony of their latest inspirations. When you do this daily on a fixed time, it is easier for spirits to prepare themselves for this. Over time you can build up a deeper relationship with them and the people in spirit world will grow as they learn from what you read and speak.
- Reserve a place for them in your house or room. This may sound a little strange for many people but imagine that you visit another's person house and no chair is offered to you, no place where you are invited to rest. In such a case, would you not feel awkward and wish to run out of the house? When you prepare a place, even a designated area in a room suffices. For special guests you can put down a chair but it is not always necessary. Other people visiting your house don't necessarily see anything of this. It is your own awareness and hospitality to the heavenly spirits you want to invite that counts.
- Share your meal with them. It is possible to prepare a plate with some food, but you can also give them food in a symbolical way, by handing over your own plate to the spirits who are there. All this may seem strange in the beginning, but once you become aware of the presence of your ancestors and friends in spirit world, it is the most normal thing to do. And how would you become more aware of them other than by investing in them and giving them love and hospitality?
As I said, there are many other ways of coming closer to our friends in the spiritual world. These are only some ways out of many more that I practice myself. To develop our spiritual senses we need to use them, we need practice. To develop our spiritual awareness, we need to give love to attract good spirits to us.
