This blog is more than an account of Near Death Experiences. It ponders in detail the tough questions of life. Who are you, and why are you here in this physical world? What happens when you die, and is there a judgment? However, most anything could appear here. This is not a news blog, archived posts are just as relevant as new posts.

Fear can take many forms. Racism is only one aspect of fear. No one is born with fear, it is either taught, caught, or embedded. Fear is always irrational behavior. Don’t confuse fear with caution when appropriate.
Taught: people can teach us to fear most anything, but if we allow others to teach us to fear we are dumb as a stone. Never let anyone teach you to fear anything. You are fully capable of learning on your own about life.
Caught: people we respect who have fear can infect us with that fear only because we respect them. Never fear just because someone else does.
Embedded: this is fear by association. Because you have a bad experience with someone doesn’t mean all “those” people are bad. Never fall into that trap, experience will show you “guilt by association” is a non-starter.
Think, meditate, pray, and act honorably without Fear.
The world of spirit is a “just” world where individuals learn to grow in spiritual love by experiencing love, and not love, (fear) in a physical world environment.
Once we enter the physical world we must graduate, we’re not permitted to just quit. Graduation implies finding and following the path of love. This generally takes more than one lifetime. So reincarnation is a possibility for everyone. The kind of physical life we experience is determined by our past choices. We can choose the path of love or we can choose a myriad of other paths.
The law of spirit and the physical world is: “Like Attracts Like.” No one can circumvent, nor outwit this immutable law. It’s not punishment, it’s gaining knowledge of how our actions effect others. It guarantees everyone will eventually find and follow the way of love.
Two examples:
A rich man used his wealth to cheat others out of their money. When he reincarnated he became a homeless man on the streets of a large city. He lived on breadcrumbs and what was given. This lifetime gave him primary knowledge of what it’s like to be without money.
A man hated a certain race of mankind. He hated them so much he formed a group of individuals, and they bullied, beat, and even caused the death of a member of the hated race. When he reincarnated he was a member of the race he had hated. He gained valuable knowledge of what it meant to be a member of a hated race.
The above examples were told by the people who experienced them. Not all homeless people are like the example. On the flip side are examples of people following the path of love and compassion. They attract love and compassion to themselves.
“You reap what you sow.” “What goes around comes around.” “Treat others as you want to be treated.” It is embedded into our society and culture.
“Like Attracts Like” will happen to us all, great or small.
Think with care and compassion about the choices you make in life. They will assuredly incur future knowledge for you.
Could you forgive a person who murdered your spouse? There is a program being used in some prisons called a Restorative Justice Program that attempts to bring murderer, and family of the murdered together in forgiveness. The family forgives the murderer and the murderer acknowledges the wrongness of their action. It is a most holy place where forgiveness is given and wrong doings are acknowledged. Great love is shown and experienced with both participants gaining from the experience. An earlier post lists some details.
