In my book Origin of the Soul and the Purpose of Reincarnation, it is explained that there are many levels of the spirit world and that after death, one gravitates to the spiritual sphere that corresponds to our level of spiritual advancement. Lower levels are negative places populated by violent criminals, who continue to try to cheat and kill one another. Higher levels become increasing pleasant and beautiful.
Two psychics, Echo Bodine and Judy Goodman, contributed to Origin of the Soul, by sharing their experiences in traveling into the levels of the spirit world. The spirit guide Ahtun Re, who is channeled through trance medium Kevin Ryerson, relates that he exists on the plane closest to God and he describes his state of being as “Lucid Ecstasy.” Origin of the Soul is largely based on my dialogues with Ahtun Re. I have worked with Kevin and Ahtun Re since 2001.
A book that I recently read that makes these spiritual realms come vividly alive is entitled Vistas of Infinity. The author, Jurgen Ziewe, is gifted in being able to use Out of Body Experiences to explore the spiritual realms. Jurgen is an excellent writer and his portrayals of the multiple spheres of the spirit realm are riveting.
A point of concurrence between Jurgen and Ahtun Re is that we have to experience what we have done to others from the other person’s point of view. In this way, we reap what we sow.
We all must face death someday and it is wise to prepare for it. Vistas of Eternity is a wonderful guidebook for what to expect. Related pages are provided below:
