Dear Angels,
"What do you do with yourself once you're dead?" Kate, San Diego
Dear Kate,
I love that you asked this pithy question for a couple of PP's answer. This is my book, still in the works. Let's see what the Angels have to say on this one.
The Angels, while laughing at our 3rd dimensional innocence, are saying, "Dear ones, What do you do now? That's it, but in some ways intensified and some ways easier. Take away the physical and you have your 'dead' life." Hmm. What they're showing me is we come up against ourselves. We get to see who we really are, without the fluff. The abs are gone if you were lucky enough to have them. The boob and nose job are no longer necessary. There are no worries that our the kids might be so drugged out they'll flunk school and you'll never get rid of them, or that they will grow up with enlarged thumbs because they've been texting all day when they were supposed to be listening to the teacher. Basic stuff. You won't care. These little physical life challenges will no longer matter.
What will matter is your spiritual transformation. Your willingness to forgive. To forgive yourself. To forgive others. If you choose to grow spiritually, you will have an opportunity to observe all the things you did in this past physical lifetime and play out a new path, like watching a different movie with the same stars in a new scenario. Perhaps you will notice that it's your choice in our "alive" life now, to release your resistance to what is; to change your attitude about the injustices of life; and to choose to be an inspiration to others.
You will have the opportunity to feel true Love once again. This is the Love that we all search for in the living. It is pure Love of the Divinity, without judgment and with complete acceptance.
Clearly you will see how the people who brutalized you in this life, gave you an opportunity to grow spiritually. They gave you the opportunity to forgive the unforgivable, to see the Divine within them in spite of their abominable behavior. This is the salvation of the New Testament.
When you're dead, you aren't. You take along everything you've learned in this life and everything you did not. There is always one more chance, one more lifetime, to perfect the imperfections by seeing the Divine within all life. This is easier without a body. It is also why we reincarnate in the physical to bring our knowledge of the Oneness into a body equipped with an active ego.
