    Hi :) I have a problem, or maybe more of a situation solution of which is problematic for me. I live in a house with many more inhabitants than people and cat. The problem is that I cannot communicate with these beings I don't know what they want and what their role is, two of these beings are my ancestors driving away the ancestors by exorcism etc is probably the stupidest solution but there are other beings,(3 or 5) neither ex-humans nor ancestors. Do you know how to check it ? Confirm that someone is actually here and then determine what their role is and what they want :(

    I worship Vishnu as devotee of Vishnu (Vaishnava/Hindu). But I was thinking about my grandfather. And my family’s way of ancestor worship which is a combination of Buddhism, Confucianism, Ancestor Worship. And hearing you discuss your ancestors and then the symbolism of the ankh reminds me of my religion and spiritual practice. Especially the concept of cyclical time which is understood through samsara, the four yugas, reincarnation, maya and moksha. I can see the differences but also the connections and its really fascinating noticing those nuances. So thanks for sharing.
