We are all incarnated Spirits and will, one given day, return to the spiritual world after the death of the physicial body. For that reason we should not be afraid of Spirits. While incarnated, we attract the Spirits in synch with our attitudes, thoughts and moral evolution. Therefore, the stronger our effort to evolve morally, closer to evolved Spirits we will be.

96. Are all spirits equal or does exist a hierarchy of ranks among them ?

"They are of different degrees according to the degree of purification to which they have attained."

(Source : The Spirits’ Book , Book 2,  Chapter I)

116. Do any spirits remain for ever in the lower ranks?

"No; all become perfect. They change in course of time, however long may be the process of amendment, for, as we have already said, a just and merciful parent cannot condemn his children to eternal banishment. Can you suppose that God, so great, so good, so just, is less kind than you are?"

467. Can we free ourselves from the influence of the spirits who incite us to evil?

"Yes; for they only attach themselves to those who attract them by the evil nature of their thoughts and desires."

491. What is the mission of a protector Spirit?

"That of a father towards his children-to lead the object of his protection into the right road, to aid him with his counsels, to console him in his afflictions, and to sustain his courage under the trials of his earthly life."
