AC 4657 - the whisperers

AC 4657
There are spirits who have . . . wished to speak in the ear so no one would hear. But it was given me to tell them that this is not proper in the other life, because it shows them to be whisperers . . . and very many of them are of such a character as to observe the vices and faults of others, and tell them privately to their associates, or whisper them in the ear when others are present; and they see and interpret everything wrongly, and set themselves before others; and for this reason they can by no means be admitted into the company of good spirits, who are not such as to hide their thoughts. It was said that in the other life such speaking is heard louder than open speech.
