Re: The Light is like our favorite grandperson
Denying the existence of "God," meaning a supreme being would be impossible for me, after having had a NDE. Still, that name "God," when I used it to address the light...while not denied by the light was really not a good fit for what I met in heaven. I have since used other words that I call that being the being of light... God=Love or Father of Light(although it is not really a masculine light), or The sum of All Love but I still call the Light God sometimes when I am lazy or Yah or Y-h because I am sentimental about some passages from the Torah that refer to a loving aspect of Yahweh who is approachable like a daddy who is there when you need him and looking out for you even when one is treading in dangerous water.
I will say another thing about my NDE and fear was never a part of it. Even when met the lesser aspect of God I was not afraid... I was aware though that a lesser aspect of God, who most religious people call God in a religious sense, but that super intelligent being is bound to the dimension of time while the Light is limited to being in timelessness and using all of our souls and spirits to relay the love that is the light to, from, and through the souls and spirits that exist in the dimension of time.
I know that some people say God is evil and good but my journey has led me to understand that while the light may have created the door for less than love... that once that door is closed at the end of time and every single bit of love is retrieved from it that it will be closed and everything left will be love... so when I say God... I usually mean the God post time unless I want to refer to the God pre-time when I want to beg for things that die.
I believe there is enough room for a religious God of time and a God who is love in timelessness that encompasses bith a religious God and one that is beyond that definition. I pray to the lesser God of religion sometimes because he is the one who answers our karmic types of requests but I when I am hurting and in need of relief from my sometimes crappy lot, I pray straight to the light because the light doesn't see my less than loving aspects and loves me unconditionally...
When I die, I want to bypass being delivered into the hands of the religious God and go straight into the light where I know I will be received with open arms... I miss that loving embrace most every day of my life on this side of time....
