The Holy Spirit dwells within you if you are a Believer. He is your guide while here on earth. It is the Holy Spirit who dwells in your heart and soul that God recognizes you as one of His when you die.
It is NOT enough to be a good person and do good works. You must also have the Holy Spirit within you to be a True Believer and Child of Christ. Not all will be True Believers.
So you must repent of your sins and accept Christ as your personal Savior.
When you die and go to Heaven everyone will be judged by God. God will recognize you as one of His Children by seeing the Holy Spirit within you. If He doesn't see the Holy Spirit with you He will claim He does not know you.
After the resurrection when Jesus told the disciples that he had to be away from them, and Earth, he said he was leaving here in his stead something to comfort and guide humanity because he could not be here himself personally. He left us The Comforter/The Holy Spirit/The Holy Ghost. I don't know if the Holy Spirit is anything different than the loving spirit of Christ itself. Maybe others have an interpretation or idea about this. I think The Holy Spirit energizes our own intuition. By the way my family got a very clear message, incredibly specific, through intuition not to take a certain road and go to what we thought was supposed to be our destination. We were in dire straights, and we did not listen, and we went there against the warning. We had the results of that, affecting our lives for years afterwards. Nothing and I do mean nothing....will ever make us make a mistake like that again.
I was born in a catholic family and was in the choir but got kicked out because I was a joker, I praise God for that, knowing what I know now. I was fortunate enough to not have been abused by a priest. The Trinity, The Godhead, The Father, The Son(Jesus) and the Holy Spirit/Ghost(our Helper/Comforter)
Went to a convent school, absorbed all this doctrine, dumped much of it and today the Holy Ghost is Mary for me, 3 in one, 3 vectors of the Holy Spirit. Although a human birth comes with many gifts and faculties, we still only perceive about 10% of sensory information out there. Truly understanding the trinity may be beyond us.
The holy Ghost is seperate from God and Jesus. They are one though. Like the 3 musketeers. The biggest sin is blasphemy against the Holy Gost that will not be forgiven. Use the Holy Ghost because that is what He is there fore. I am not talking misuse (forgive the tences because I am not at all saying that I am a scholar on the Holy Gost). I am simply transveing my experience with you and I have came to the conclusion that "how can you live without Him." Yes It is a HIM. Love and friendliness, taking care of humanity. In my oppinion the Holy Ghost works while you sleep. Comforting. The HG has saved my life and that of my family twice over. You can feel the power, I am not kidding. Make of it as you will.
He is the third person of the Holy Trinity : Father,Son,Holy Spirit.
I was raised as a Catholic, and actually was an alter boy for a few months. Until I got kicked out of Catholic School in the 7th grade.
Please inform on exactly what the Holy Ghost is.
The Holy Trinity = God, Christ and the Holy Spirit (Ghost)
Three persons in one.
A good definition and understanding: https://www.cru.org/us/en/train-and-grow/spiritual-growth/core-christian-beliefs/understanding-the-trinity.html

The Holy Spirit is God who dwells in us
Dwells. Like armour. Such a fine name.

I always thought the easiest way to explain the Holy Spirit was likening him to the Jiminy Cricket within you after accepting Christ. 😁
