Why do some souls remain on earth as ghosts instead of crossing over?

Smt. Priyanka Seethepalli asked: Why do some souls haunt places on Earth instead of crossing over? We hear stories where some people can even see these ghosts. Some spirits even try to enter living human beings and cause them harm. I heard that some harmless spirits just wander around for years. How come those souls did not face any judgment after 10 days of their death? Also, how does a soul transform into an evil spirit and why do evil spirits harm people? Is having complete faith in God to protect us, the answer to preventing these spirits from approaching us?

Swami replied: There is no difference between ghosts and persons who have extreme attachment or fascination to worldly things. It is only due to their extreme worldly fascination that souls enter invisible energetic bodies called ghosts, after death. They continue to wander in this world untill their fascination gets pacified. Such a judgment is given by God to the soul having extreme worldly fascination, on the 10th day after the death of the soul. Such ghosts or spirits occasionally enter us and cause harm to us only by the will of God. It is a form of punishment given by God to us for our sins. In the absence of the divine will to punish us in this manner, ghosts usually go their own way and we go our way. How can you worship God to avoid ghosts, when it is only by the will of God that the ghost is troubling you to punish you for your sins? If you worship God, God will come to you in human form and preach the spiritual knowledge required for your reformation. Once your soul is reformed, the sins are cancelled and the ghost will automatically leave you. After understanding this entire procedure, we can say that our worship to God removes the ghost. But usually, the intermediate step of the reformation of the soul through spiritual knowledge goes unmentioned and unnoticed.
