Chapter 9: Earth Bound

“What is needed is a greater awareness of the unseen world, not in a superstitious way, but as a scientific fact and that its influence for good is even greater than the influence of evil. Also, that it is necessary for people to be so aware that they are prepared to guard themselves from the evil by keeping their whole interest centered in the spiritual way of life.” — Travellers Return

Mostly, this book is about what happens to the average person and how they experience the Afterlife as being far better than their life on Earth. However, this is not true for everyone and some people are so attached to earthly things that for a time they can become ‘Earth Bound’, literally tied or ‘bound’ to something, an idea about something, or a person, on the Earth. A healthy, well-balanced person is not going to become Earth Bound so what we are looking at here is how to help those unfortunates who do get stuck in this way.

Earth Bound people are those who for one reason or another are choosing not to leave the Earth regions. They have physically left their Earthly body, but they are clinging to the zone of the Astral Plane that is very close to it and inter-penetrates it. Their reasons for not wanting to leave the Earth regions can be many and varied. It can even be a relatively well-intentioned one of wanting to try and comfort those grieving their departure. In their willfulness, they may refuse to listen, or block out their awareness of those who have come to greet them and who are encouraging them to move on.

Some of those who become Earth Bound were so materialistic that they had no concept of any life other than an Earthly existence and so are refusing to accept that the physical life they had has ended. Rather than look to the new, they are using their free will to cling to what they already know. Free will is not always an obviously good thing as it leads those ignorant of a wider reality to make really bad choices. However, they nevertheless learn and grow and eventually everything comes right.

Some take a while to even realize that they are ‘dead’ as far as the world is concerned and wonder for a while why nobody pays any attention to them. As their focus is so intent on the Earth they do not even see, and are not open to the assistance standing by to help them move on. They might not even realize, for a time, that they can pass through walls and go where they want at will. Some of them go into some kind of half-awake daze and convince themselves that they having some kind of dream.

“Many, as you know, do not realize for some time the fact that they are what they would call dead, because they find themselves alive and with a body, and their previous vague notions of the after-death state are not, by any means, lightly thrown away.
