Excerpt of... (part 6)

[Guest guest]

‘This is the type of progress occurring with the

nine categories of planets. The more spiritually

advanced you are, the more you will benefit, on a superior

planet, by an environment and general way of life which

is superior. The very way in which you procure food

is much easier, which in turn, simplifies the

process of organising your way of life; the consequence

is more effective spiritual development.<br><br>‘On

the higher planets, Nature itself, enters the stage

to assist ‘the pupil’ and, by the time you reach

planets of the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth category,

not only is your Astral body highly evolved, your

physical body has also benefited from your

development.<br><br>‘We know you have already been favourably impressed

by what you have seen on our planet. As you see

more, you will appreciate that it is what you would

call on Earth, ‘a paradise’; and yet, compared with

true happiness, when you become a pure spirit, it is

still nothing.<br><br>‘I must be careful not to make

this explanation too long, for you must report it word

for word, changing nothing in the book that you will

write. It is absolutely essential you allow no personal

opinion to intrude.<br><br>‘No, don’t get anxious - Thao

will help you with the details when the time comes to

start writing...<br><br>‘From this planet, it is

possible either to remain in a physical body or be

reunited with the Great Spirit in the ether.’<br><br>As

these words were uttered, the Aura surrounding the

leader shone more brightly than ever and I was surprised

to see him almost disappear in a golden mist, only

to reappear a second later.<br><br>‘You have

understood that the Astral body is a body which inhabits

your physical body recalling and noting all the

understanding acquired during the course of its various

lives.<br><br>‘It can only be enriched spiritually - not

materially. The physical body is merely a vehicle which, in

most cases we abandon when we die.<br><br>‘I will

elaborate, for I see that ‘in most cases’ has confused you.

By this, I mean that some of us, including all on

our planet, are able to regenerate the cells of our

bodies at will. Yes, you have already noticed that most

of us seem to be of the same age. We are one of

three planets that are the most highly evolved in this

galaxy. Some of us can, and do, directly join what we

call the great ether.<br><br>‘So, on this particular

planet, we have arrived at a stage near perfection, both

materially and spiritually. But we have our roles to

perform, as does every creature existing in the Universe;

in fact, everything, including a single pebble, has

its role.<br><br>‘Our role, as beings of a superior

planet, is to guide - to help with spiritual development

and even, sometimes, materially. We are in a position

to give material assistance because we are

technologically the most advanced people. Indeed, how could a

father give spiritual guidance to his child if he were

not older, more educated and more skilled in

diplomacy than the child?<br><br>‘If the child should

require physical punishment, as unfortunately, is

sometimes the case, isn’t it important that the parent be

physically stronger than the child? Certain adults, who

refuse to listen and who are absolutely stubborn, also

need to be corrected by physical means.<br><br>- end
