Wickland in his introduction wrote: “Deprived of their physical sense organs, they are shut out from the physical light, and lacking a mental perception of the high purpose of existence, these individuals are spiritually blind and find themselves in a twilight – the ‘outer darkness’ mentioned in the Bible and linger in the realm known as the Earth Sphere. … Assuming spirit forms which are a result of their thought life on Earth, millions remain for a time in the Earth Sphere, and often in the environment of their Earth lives, still held by their habits or interests.” William James wrote through psychic Suzy Smith via automatic writing in The Book of James, “Your thoughts always modify your conditions. If you are unworthy because of having lived wickedly, your surroundings after death are abominably dismal. You move around very little, thinking yourself always to be in a dark fog or gray gloom. When you become aware of the inevitability of progress, conditions for you clear up at once.” What is Creator’s perspective?

This is, indeed, the fate of the lost soul spirits. They are truly lost in a fog from the deprivation inherent with their in-between status. On the one hand, they are impaired, having lost their senses with death of the body but not yet having regained light being intuitive reach and the empowerment of their divinity being more greatly on display. This is a tremendous handicap because that impairment will keep them powerless to do much of anything, and that includes any sort of purposeful mobility. If you are lost in the dark and cannot see or envision where you need to go, you will most likely do little or nothing and, even if you try and get nowhere, that will likely constrain further attempts after a while because failure breeds more failure, not greater heroic efforts to overcome such a major liability. It is all too easy for one to have their hopes crushed by seeming limitation and the disorientation of being in a purposeless environment with no pointers, no cues, no resources to draw upon even visible. So this is truly a dead-end for many, and that may last for a good long while. So the comments you quote, describe it is possible to gain ground nonetheless, if there is something that happens to raise the vibration within such a lost one. The difficulty is that, having fallen so low, the gap between what needs to happen and their capability to be raised up becomes so large it is unlikely to take place at all.
