Ghosts are often depicted of a human size and shape (although some accounts also mention animal ghosts), but typically described as "silvery", "shadowy", "semitransparent", or "fog-like." Parapsychologists refer to the "substance" of which ghosts and other spirits are made of as "ectoplasm". Ghosts do not have a physical body like human beings, but only a subtle astral body. Sometimes they do not manifest themselves visually but in terms of other phenomena, such as the movements of an object, spontaneous throwing of a light switch, noises, etc., ...

| | |  Ghost - Beliefs about ghosts: Mind is Matter - Nurture It Results of recent studies published in the British Journal of Psychiatry pronounce that diet has a direct bearing on the behaviour of juvenile delinquents. Certain types of food brought about - though very gradually - distinct changes in the behavioural pattern of the delinquents. Foods affect animal behaviour as well. For instance, a dog fed on raw meat for any length of time turns out to be more ferocious than a similar breed fed on vegetarian foods. Sastras explain that mind is also matter, albeit subtle, and, like the body, is nourished by food. The Chandogya Upanishad says: "Mind consists of food, prana (life force) of water and speech of fire."

| | |  Ghost - Beliefs about ghosts: Long Night of the Unsheathed The season changes. In the midday sun, the squirrels multiply. One more troubled night passes in the shadow of unknown ghosts. The Koel and the Bulbul continue to call. You tell yourself, it's nothing. It will be a normal sort of day. It will pass. You watch in wonder at the new white shoots dyed in pink and orange, sprouting out of the dry branch of the Bougainvillea. The Kesuda, erect, tall, thorny, stands shedding leaves in emptiness. It's red flowers, smooth as velvet, blossom in a bed of thorns. Blood flows in our city of sorrow. Clogging our lives with shrouds without forms. Bags of ashes stand alone and unattended like funerary stones. Columns of smoke lick the sky with demonic tongues of fire (See also: Peace of Mind, Faith and Belief, Spiritual Guidance, God and Religion, Peace on Earth, Peace of Mind, Love and Happiness, Life and Beyond, Body Mind and Soul)
