May 17, 2017 at 19:03 comment added Adamant @Ellesedil - The Father definitely knows about Force ghosts. It’s simply that the vision of Shmi was a deception, but the vision of Qui Gon wasn’t.
May 17, 2017 at 18:33 comment added Ellesedil Qui-Gon also appears in the later episode "The Ghosts of Mortis". There, he seems much less of a trick as he speaks to Anakin and dispatches the typical Jedi/Forcey "look within yourself" advice. Other than the Father's comment, there's no other evidence that it's not Qui-Gon Jinn and I find it more likely that the Father simply does not know about Force Ghosts. If it were a trick, I would expect the plot to reveal that to the viewer. Otherwise, what's the point?

May 31, 2016 at 0:23 comment added Hypnosifl It was a little unclear in "Overlords" if that was genuinely Qui-Gon, since in the same episode Anakin encountered a vision of his mother, but when he told the member of the powerful Force-user trio called "The Father" about it, The Father said it was probably a trick by another member of the trio, "The Son". So it's possible Qui-Gon was a trick as well--note that that image of Qui-Gon doesn't seem to have the transparency usually associated with Force ghosts (though the image Valorum posted from 'Voices' doesn't seem transparent either, so maybe that's not a clue).
