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. Check the boxes at the top of the page for the Contents, Contact, Forum and other links.
Spiritual growth is the task of each individual. No one can do it for you. As you learn, consciousness expands, and life becomes more desirable. It is not for moral reasons that you grow, it is for self transformation.
Spiritual growth has little to do with insight. It has everything to do with attitude.
The three main attitudes of spiritual growth are:
1. Forgiveness.
2. Non-judgment.
3. Unconditional love.
Forgiveness releases negative emotions of anger, guilt, envy, etc., and provides closure on past events where mistakes may have been made. It clears the path of emotional rubbish, freeing the mind and heart to continue the journey of life. Forgive yourself as well as others.
Non-judgment keeps the negative emotions away. If you don’t condemn, it is not necessary to forgive. The world is large enough for all the things. It is not necessary to have an opinion on everything.
Unconditional love overcomes fear of life, and fear of death. It replaces negative emotions. It brings understanding. You learn to love by practicing it. The page on Love, the healing force will further explain.
The dichotomy of our physical world makes it an ideal environment to grow spiritually. Each day brings its challenges, and achievements. There are no circumstances, or conditions that inhibit growth. It matters not how, rich or poor, young or old, ill or healthy, spiritual growth can be practiced. The rewards are great, why are people waiting?
In writing the song “Imagine” John remembered the light of unconditional love. We are created in this love, every one, and connected by its magnificent beauty. There is nothing to divide or separate us in the spirit world. No heaven, no hell, no countries, no religions, and no need for possessions. Our spirit world is as one. But in the dichotomy of the physical world many forget they are loved. Choices are made that hurt others and themselves. We lose our way and forget we are the light of love. But, the light is there within us all waiting to be remembered.
Imagine
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one
