“WE ARE ALL IMMORTAL BEINGS”

We are all immortal beings, every man, woman and animal. We are not our bodies, we are not our flesh and blood. We are etheric beings housed
in bodies of physical matter.
The body is mortal. When our body dies, we discard it just as if we were taking off an overcoat when we no longer need it. The body then, without us, will start to decay. The body dies, we cannot.
Once we have left our body we are no longer trapped and restricted. While we are earthbound we are quite helpless to our bodily functions. We all feel pain, some of us have special needs, and we are all susceptible to dis-ease. But once we’re free from our body these are all left behind.
Our etheric body can reach any destination in a matter of seconds, just by
thought. The body can only slow us down, and has to rely on material transportation, such as aircraft, boats and trains.
We are connected to our body by an invisible cord, rather like the umbilical cord. We often leave our body during sleep, still connected by the cord. On re-entry there is sometimes a jolting sensation, something like the sensation of falling.
Once the body has ripened through experience, it will fall, as does the ripened apple. It is then that the connecting cord is severed, so that we may transcend on to a higher level of existence.
This higher level is sometimes referred to as the unseen world. This is not
a planet or star that can be pin-pointed on an inter-stellar space map. We are no nearer to the unseen world when we are flying on a jet plane, than if we were many fathoms below the sea, in a submarine.
The unseen world is all around us, though it is in a completely different dimension.
The earth is a training ground. We are here to develop our characters, to learn to love and seek knowledge. We are born into this world from the unseen, and return when we are ripe.
Within the unseen world there are many different levels of existence. Each of these inter-penetrates another. When we are ready we will transcend into the level of existence which has been made necessary in accordance with our earthly lives.
We are all striving toward the summit of perfection, reaching higher planes on our spiritual journey. We will be with beings of the same nature as our own. Like attracts like. We cannot dwell on the same plane as
someone we did not get on with while on earth.

Those on a higher level of existence can visit those on lower ones, but those on lower levels cannot visit the higher planes of existence.
Our pets we once had on earth, are often waiting for us in the unseen world, and will spend a great amount of time with us. However, they must eventually join a group of other animals to form a ‘soul group’. This soul group will evolve together to reach spiritual attainment. The length of time our pets will spend with us, before joining their soul group, is hard to say. The concept of time in the unseen world is commensurable to our physical senses - rather like trying to pour a gallon of water into a pint jug.
All of us must go through a life review when we transcend on to the unseen world. The life review can be summed up in that well known expression, “My whole life just flashed before me”. Our entire life while on earth, will be shown to us. We will see this appear all around us in a three dimensional glimpse. In the unseen world we are not limited to our five physical senses. Among many others there is our ability to communicate without vocal expression, and the ability to see all that surrounds us, without moving.
The life review can be seen in this way in a three dimensional scan. We not only feel all the emotions of our own deeds during the life review, but at the same time we feel all the emotions of those we have affected by our own actions. This can be very rewarding if we were showing love, but most unpleasant if we were causing sorrow to those around us. Once we have seen all, we are then able to judge ourselves.
No-one can judge us. We each judge ourselves. There is no-one waiting to punish us for wrong doings, only guides to help us amend our unloving acts.
Evil is the result of humanities’ imperfect development on earth. It is another example of cause and effect - As we sow, so shall we reap. We cannot cheat natural laws once we break them. We have to face the consequences of our own actions. There is no escape, neither confession nor repentance will stop natural law.
There are many illnesses we inflict upon ourselves by our own actions. Most of these are borne out of greed, selfishness, hatred, jealousy, anger, etc.
There is a perfect plan within the universe, but within this plan we are all given a percentage of free will. With this free will we can make our lives as we wish. Life has been given to us, it is up to us to use it well.

Yes, we return to the Oneness of the Collective Consciousness of souls. Heaven. We return to All That Is, unless a soul chooses to stay around a little while and then that soul has the freedom to instantly manifest anything it thinks about.

Thankyou Shining Star,

I like to be reminded that this life is not all there is to me , from time to time, It's so easy to get bogged down in the physical

We aren’t limited by our physical body w/ reaching a higher level of consciousness. This isn’t automatically bestowed by our physical body dying. We move into a higher dimensional level by doing our own personal work on our own energies such as moving past fear & limitations & mastering our energies.

We CAN visit higher levels of existence while existing in physicality as well as expand our own awareness into a MUCH higher level.

Of course we are all immortals with mortal bodies. There are also immortals who are gnashing their teeth in hell. & immortals surrounded with beautiful denizens in heaven.

Thank you dear rajakrsna, mattie, Neville and moke64916 for your kind replies... It must be realized that I wrote "We are all immortal beings" when I was 12 years old... Blessing you all.

Shining Star is 21 years old.

Nice post. It is good to be reminded now and then that our worldly problems are only temporary and not as serious as we really think they are. We are more than that, more than anything here on Earth. We are immortal.
