Buddhists/Faces ghostly around a person that i met

Question
All my life , i have seen unknown faces , from Clouds, to Hell pictures. These
were given to me by my frends , not humans, but at temples beings.

I met a man during my vipassan meditation observing 8 precepts. as days
went by, i began to see this person as not a ...( like you met your twin-
someone like you). i guess we both realised this.

We never did the things that humans want to do. but i recently got a photo,
from our meditation website, of all our group eating, i printed the photo and
found this ghostly faces around him.

I recongnise similar faces because i saw the marble on temple wall, had these
like hell? Faces trapped.

In temple , i wondered to myself, what causes the faces to be so ghostly.
beyong people ghosts.

I also realised why these faces were near a person like me, my twin. i
wondered if my life is like this?

Until these ghostly also want to be shown in my picture of someone i couldnt
meet for a very long time. Why me?

I am very happy when i see clouds angel trees faces. Buddha too. Their faces
are different, like very clean.

But the faces in twin photo, was beyond the what of Hell realms.

were these faces how long in hell realms? were these faces people before?

Answer
Hi Marilyn,

I honestly don't know what you are trying to convey.  If there is one advice I can give, that would be you distant yourself away from this place that you are experiencing these encounters.

The Buddha taught the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path.  We are supposed to practise his teachings to experience contentment and peace within ourselves, by reducing greed, hatred and delusion.
