You’ll be inspired by this heart-felt spiritual poetry received from my family’s quirky 96-year old neighbor, RTG–

after his death.

He was a real character–

a cranky Theosophist metaphysician surviving “out in the sticks” who’d met the great Indian philosopher Krishnamurti–

and was far from a saint.

Please enjoy his poetic wisdom:

“Survival of the Soul

Though the Sun may shine upon the Earth with the familiarity of a lover,
Though the Earth may cradle the four winds, rocking them gently like children,
Though the rocks of the Earth may cling together for dear survival,

I now have flown free of this Earth.

Vaulted over the stones that clutter my grave.

I have transcended Time and Space and all unreasoning doubts.
My soul now springs with feverish desire and burning inner peace
back towards my divine celestial home,
the home of all freed mankind:

The arms of the Holy Mother and the Holy Father await my arrival.
With patience and good cheer, they await the flap of my rusty wings.
I have taken flight, homeward-bound.

I glimpse so easily the Divine Home I once doubted I’d see, back when alive.

My flight home is the quiet sigh of a child in love.

O Bless the Earth’s children,
Divine Mother and Father.
O bind up their wounds,
O Celestial Mother.
O show them the way home,
O Celestial Father,
So that all mankind, living
Will cease to perish.

You have drawn in your breath with expectant wonder, O Divine Parents.

We are flying back home on this soft breeze of yours.
Back into your Bliss we surge,
by the billions.

I am amidst a great and humble family:
the Divine Children, all returning.

Just ahead, your warm light
Welcomes us home.”

–RTG

When RTG unexpectedly contacted me from his transition on The Other Side, he was caught up in a vast Christ Consciousness expansion.

Soon, his past life judgment would follow.

Thanks to the few clear-eyed souls who’ve “reported back to us” on their past life judgment, we know this climactic event pierces everyone’s heart to the quick.

Its purpose is NOT to punish us. Instead, it serves the Divine Will by awakening us to the deepest, toughest spiritual lessons of our newly ended life.

It serves as the culmination of our just-completed struggles. But why?

Because we have to INTEGRATE into our willful consciousness what we’ve done & experienced–with ALL of our delusions, ignorance and excuses REMOVED.

During this painful judgment we rediscover that, yes, God still LOVES US UNCONDITIONALLY.

If we think about that fact–honestly, considering our poor behavior–it’s incredible.

After gasping through our judgment–no matter how bad it was–we’re rewarded by experiencing massive relief at the fact we are still LOVED.

What happens next?

The Universe is an Ever-Practical Training School. So, we’re prepared for what we’ve earned as a new starting level of education and growth to experience while in the Spirit World or Heavens.

How do we learn and grow without our dense physical body?

We are given personal opportunities to serve the Divine Will that radiates through the Heavens around us like a Central Sun. Our “Work-Study Program” might take into account what we studied in our past life or might apply our special aptitudes to the situations at hand in the Heavens. It might be as simple as: over there’s a lost & confused soul newly arrived from Earth life, will you go try to help her?

There always exists an infinite number and variety of ever-changing ways to serve the Divine Will. To help others in their needs. Always, the degree we try to fill those needs in the moment with whatever love, competence and sincerity we can muster–that’s being re-taught to our reawakening minds as we go along–determines how much of that delightful Spiritual Sun from God we can refresh ourselves in.

This training and soul purging & cleansing lasts even through the evaluation where we prep for our next physical incarnation, no matter how near or far away that is in the physical world future.

We can see, there’s much to fear but far more to rejoice in about our judgment, eventually…

Have you ever wondered about the famous physicist Stephen Hawking’s claim that “Life after death is just a fairy tale”?

RTG’s words stand as stark poetic testament to the survival of your soul.
