Some people consult and ask guidance
from the spirits of those who passed away, mostly their loved ones who now lie deep underground ​in the World Of The Dead.
The reason for doing so depends
on their emotions and beliefs. Even though they are dead, those who are alive are still emotionally attached and couldn't let go. A lot of people think of the dead as living in Paradise or some better place that's why they readily think they have the influence in the lives of the living. And thinking that the dead are already living in Paradise after death is definitely wrong unless they lived the righteous life to make them go straight to Heaven. But living a life of sin imprisons them in the World Of The Dead maybe for a while. No dead can go to Heaven unless he is purged - cleansed and made pure in the place called Purgatory. Asking the dead for guidance or help is like asking from a statue. They can never do anything for they no longer have life. They can never move a muscle, and there's no more intelligence left in them to give advice or counsel. They are now souls, incapable of speaking words as clearly as a living person can. And if ever they speak, they speak with muffled voice that surely gives the creeps. People never realized that the dead can no longer take part in the world of the living and can never answer people who calls them for help. It's very wrong to do this and it's disturbing and horrible. The dead deserves utmost respect and never to be disturbed. They are already at rest and never to live again unless they are reincarnated by God to continue their development. And now they lie in wait for the Judgment Day, the day when time comes to a close and the living and the dead are judged according to their deeds. Asking the dead to guide and help you in any endeavor or undertaking is a great insult to our Maker whom we should call on always. It's like stripping Him of His power to help and to guide, to save and to rescue, to give Wisdom And Enlightenment, etc. It's like saying that there's no God in this world that's why they call on the dead believing they have the power. These people are clearly out of their minds for they never thought of the living and instead call on the dead. The living, even though are only humans and not gods, can advice, guide, help, save, etc. The dead can never do anything ever again, not even tiny movements. How can the dead offer any help when they can't even help themselves get out from their dark and lifeless world right down below the earth? And for them to help the living, they should come back alive first of all.
