==Ghost==
 
What do you mean by a ghost? The word “ghost” as used in popular parlance covers an enormous number of distinct phenomena which have no necessary connection with each other. To name a few only—
 
(1) An actual contact with the soul of a departed human being housed in its subtle body and transcribed to our mind by the appearance of an image or the hearing of a voice.
 
(2) A mental formation stamped by the thoughts and feelings of a departed human being on the atmosphere of a place or locality, wandering about there or repeating itself—till that formation either exhausts itself or is dissolved by one means or another. This is the explanation of such phenomena as the haunted house in which the scenes attending or surrounding or preceding a murder are repeated over and over again and many similar phenomena.
==Ghost==(3) A being of the lower vital planes who has assumed the discarded vital sheath of a departed human being or a fragment of his vital personality and appears and acts in the form and perhaps with the surface thoughts and memories of that person. (4) A being of the lower vital plane who by the medium of a living human being or by some other means or agency is able to materialise itself sufficiently so as to appear and act in a visible form or speak with an audible voice or, without so appearing, to move about material things, e.g. furniture or to materialise objects or to shift them from place to place. This accounts for what are called poltergeists, phenomena of stone-throwing, tree-inhabiting bhūtas and other well-known phenomena. (5) Apparitions which are the formations of one’s own mind but take to the senses an objective appearance. (6) Temporary possession of people by vital beings who sometimes pretend to be departed relatives etc. (7) Thought-Image of themselves projected, often by people at the moment of death, which appear at that time or a few hours afterwards to their friends or relatives. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/28/occult-knowledge#p35,p36,p37,p38,p39,p40,p41,p42</ref>
==Gods==
==Gossip==
 
The habit of talk about others. It is therefore this tendency that must cease in the vital itself. Not to be under the control of the impulse to speech, to be able to do without it as a necessity and to speak only when one sees that it is right to do so and only what one sees to be right to say, is a very necessary part of Yogic self-control. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/35/avoiding-gossip#p9</ref>
==Grace==
Loving recognition of the Grace received from the Divine, a humble recognition of all that the Divine has done and is doing for you, the spontaneous feeling of obligation to the Divine, which makes you do your best to become less unworthy of what the Divine is doing for you.

Gratitude: it is you who open all the closed doors and let the Grace which saves penetrate deeply.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/14/gratitude#p1</ref>
==Guna==
The gunas are modes or processes of Nature. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/28/the-sankhya-yoga-system#p33</ref>
[T]he three names, sattva, rajas and tamas. Tamas is the principle and power of inertia; Rajas is the principle of kinesis, passion, endeavour, struggle, initiation (ārambha); sattwa the principle of assimilation, equilibrium and harmony. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/sabcl/21/the-liberation-of-the-nature#p2</ref>
