My dear Angelic companions, let us face it - after 12 billion years or so of marinating in Supreme Divine Bliss one gets rather complacent. Like a fish in water. "Yeah, ho hum, this is nice". What is missing - gratitude for just how good we've got it.
Well friends, I've got a solution for that - the best ever first person video game - Earth School™!
Bored with Divine Love? Learn about the emotions of fear, loathing, dread, anger, hatred, depression and sorrow, not to mention pain and suffering.
Take your healthy Spirit body for granted? Learn what it is to have a body that constantly suffers illness and impairment which only gets worse when we reach "old age".
Take for granted that every day is good and nothing to fear? Learn what it is like to live in a world with ongoing disasters - wars, floods, fires, epidemics!
I bet you never think about day-to-day sustenance. No reason to - it is automatic here. Learn what it is like to have to worry about obtaining "money" to "feed" yourself and your family, and provide "shelter" from the "elements".
Do you not appreciate the ability to be anywhere in the entire universe at the speed of thought? Learn what it is like to be confined to a body that cannot even get very far across the planet without assistance.
How about having a vast mind that can easily comprehend mathematical beauties of physics - like the Noether theorem that shows us how time and space symmetries give rise to the laws of conservation of energy and momentum. Instead, know what it is like to be confined to a brain that has to work to learn simple arithmetic and requires years of training to comprehend advanced mathematics.
Do you not appreciate instant comprehensive access to all knowledge? On Earth School we do have something like that called the "Internet". Only problem is, not all the information that one can find there is correct.
I see we have a question - yes, you there - go ahead:
Q: How is this game going to be effective? We all know full well what Heaven is like. All it would take is one taste of this Earth School business and I would be out of there.
Excellent question! To gain entry to the Earth School game one has to submit to the Veil Of Forgetting™. Your mind will be a complete blank slate, and you will not even know that there was such a thing as Heaven. Not only that, the denizens of Earth have made up all kinds of crazy theories about hell realms and angry gods. Most of those who see through that nonsense are so in reaction that they dismiss any possibility of there being a world beyond Earth School. So much noise only a very few understand the truth of the matter during their stay there.
Q: So a spirit would have to be either completely insane or a complete masochist to participate in such a thing. Why would anyone ever do it?
Here I quote from someone who made that choice:
I remember a very long time ago before I had ever been physical, coming across a being who had been physical and I felt the nature of who he was. I felt the quality of his essence and as I felt it I felt this incredible power and joy and expansiveness and freedom that was a part of this being. And I said to him … “my goodness look at what you are. What could you possibly have done to be this?”
And he shared with me .. chiefly that he had been physical. And he had had one physical experience in particular that he shared where he had suffered he had some kind of physical health ailment or pain or sickness felt like a damaged limb perhaps. Pain that lasted for many years. And it was extremely difficult for him but the way that he met that experience, the way that he processed that experience and met it and integrated it allowed a certain refinement of his being. This powerful powerful refinement of what he was, who he was. And I was so deeply inspired I said I'm going to do that. ... And I remember him communicating just kind of like gently “Yeah that's what they all say. It's difficult in a way that you don't understand.”
And so here we are. Quotation source:
May 2024 be a good year here on Earth!
