Re: we shall be judged on Love
"I know something greater awaits me when I die but I don't know what that is"
I know that depending on your cultural background that who you meet on the other side could have variations. If I was going to die soon, I would try to forgive all harm that had been done to me... By holding no grudges... letting go of this world's judgments...the darkness and tortured spirits that clung to you in your life will not have to be removed from you on the way to the light... There is something to forgiveness that looks like vengeance to the naked eyes but looks like the light of love to the soul. Some rare few souls stop to look around and see those spirits that hid their soul from the light as heavy clothing but when we enter into the light...we are renewed...the spirits we collected...are freed from our soul... loving spirits will continue on as witnesses of our love...but those spirits that are witnesses of our unlove...will not follow us into the light...As layers of an onion are peeled away..when the last vestige of physical spent...in the end there is nothing at all physical awaiting us... it looks like whatever love there is anywhere...the sum of all the love there is...love is not a physical thing..."love loves."
Most of us want a certain amount of familiarity on our trip home... While I saw souls
as orbs of light... I did see many trees and plants that had a certain amount of solidness to them... The trees and plants appeared as plants from my world...while I imagine the paths of others from other worlds most likely went down paths that reminded them of their world... In my familiar path the trees and plants on either side of my streets of gold were so vibrant that each blade of grass and every leaf on every tree was so alive that each one of each of them seemed to have a loving spirit in them but collectively they were all a reflection of love
I know some who go to the other side put clothing over their ancestors, former lovers, friends, or their super beings... I did not... The souls and my religious icons were made out of light but if it gives you comfort to have one layer of the onion to comfort you then it is up to you. I just remembered a being I did not make eye contact with but saw its reflection in a gem in the throne room... a being float above the light with eyes going in every direction... but it was a reflection again... it is putting on physical qualities for what has no physical thing.
As for me... I do see in dreams another earth...freed of death and dying... I might return to such a place one last time but I don't want to be tricked again... Over there we can't see the pain going on below...so it seems like returning from there would be okay...but it is like a magician's trick...when we fall again into our mother's womb...the pain of this side comes alive again... I don't want to be lured to the side of heaven by the illusions of this world again...instead I want to stay in the light of love... giving up the burning for things that burn,,, the very act of desire for what is familiar...casts us out of the perfect light...
If I was going to plan my trip again... I would not go back though those gates again...and fall again... Even my flesh is rebelling as I type these words... It is saying here is not so bad,,, but yesterday I met someone else with my own myths who said we should turn the middle east into glass(from the heat of nuclear bombs)...and I know there are those who really have the power to do that... more...they think that God is Okay with that...and I realize my comfort is my comfort while others who say they believe in God oppress billions of human beings and grind them down for my comfort... I am not willing to return to another body where I have to stand on the shoulders of others....pushing them down...to make me feel tall...
You have a choice of what you want your other side to be... I hope you choose an other side that looks like love...
You had much more to say in your post. I hope, love willing, to return to those other sayings you said... I try not to just say something just to say anything. Your letters lift me up and give me strength... I will return to your words when I hope I can give you back some of the loving kindness you have shown me with your words... Thank you again...
Y_h bless your path to love
