Why would my ancestors want to trouble me?

2. Inability to move on in the afterlife Intention behind the trouble

An ancestor wanting to fulfill his desires will trouble a descendant with similar desires, whereas An ancestor desirous of moving on to a higher subtle region would target a descendant doing spiritual practice.

2. Inability to move on in the afterlife - Requirement of help

Dont my ancestors help me?

Help if at all is mainly at a worldly level The extent and quality of help depends on their attitude in their life on Earth and their spiritual level. Below 30% spiritual level it is very difficult. Ancestors by helping their descendants are in effect enhancing the attachment of their descendants to worldly pleasures and simultaneously get further attached themselves. Real help departed ancestors can give their descendants is to make them aware of the necessity of spiritual practice.
