Experience, fixidity, higher worlds, Learning, liberation, lower worlds, Negative, Neutral, Physical body, Positive, Soul
In my religious path, we believe in two realms of worlds–the lower worlds and the higher worlds. The lower worlds are bound by matter, energy, space and time and are fixed, while the higher worlds are not bound by these same characteristics, and are unlimited.
The lower worlds are designed for Soul to learn. The design gives them the appearance of completeness, spaciousness, and accommodation, yet are beset with numberless restrictions. Subsequently, everything here comes with advantages and disadvantages. Everything has a “catch”.
A person is rich, but dies from a disease money can’t cure. A person commits evil acts and gets away with it (or so he or she thinks). Bad things happen to good people, without any rhyme or reason. Change is permanent here.
When we realize we are not this body, the fixidity of this reality makes sense. We live, we die, we return to do it all over again. Only when we realize the temporal nature of this place, we will begin to search for something beyond this. When we do, we find that Soul is the real us, and these many bodies and lifetimes we experience are just that–experience, so Soul can learn and become liberated from this ever-turning wheel.
Have a great Saturday!!
Until next time…

Very interesting a take on life and in a sense an element of spirituality. If you don’t mind me asking Dave, what religious path do you practice?

I’m a member of ECKANKAR. We call ourselves ECKists. We are a global religious path. Here’s our website if you’d like to take a look around: http://www.eckankar.org. We just updated our website and it is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for reading my post. It’s always nice to get a comment here and there. ~Dave

That sounds very interesting, never heard of it. I’m guessing it’s a fairly new religious path that hasn’t been around for a long time? I’ll look at the site later, i was just curious because of your spiritual belief that demonstrated in your post. Though I’m Christian I’m very intrigued by other ways of life and how others see the world. Of course no problem 😌, you’ll probably see more of me. Followed your blog all the best.

We’ve been around since the 60s. I’ve been an ECKist for 50 years. It is global, but we are small compared to other mainstream religions. No pressure, if you’re curious, visit the website. If not, that’s cool too.
