I am here, your own true and loving Helen.
Well my dear, I see that you have been very much interested in
the book (“The life beyond death” by Yogi Ramasharaka) that you
have been reading, and also in many of the truths that it contains,
as well as in many untruths that are set forth. The writer of the
book knows not as a fact the things that he has therein written,
but has compiled the statements from other works that were written,
long ago by men who were of the oriental religions, and who wrote
as they conceived the truth of existence to be, both in the earth
world and in the spirit world.
They were possessed of a combination of concepts that came to them
in their moments of meditation and in their moments of being wide
awake to the conditions of the present life, I mean the earth life.
They are not authority, and while they have many of the truths of
the other side of life, yet they must not be relied on for definite
and authoritative information. I will come soon and write to you
on the subject of the rebirth or reincarnation, and show you that
it has no foundation in fact or in the economy of God's creation
of the human soul. Man, when he once gives up his earth life, never
returns to it again in the way described in the book, but only in
his spirit form, as I am now doing.
Well, dear, you are in better condition tonight, and the higher
spirits will soon come and write you. The Master is not here tonight,1
as he has gone to the Celestial Heavens, where he may not hear the
praise and worship ascend to him as God, and the redeemer of the
world by his death and resurrection, subjects which are wholly untrue
and very distasteful to him.
If men would only understand the true resurrection, how much they
would be benefited and progress in their soul development. He arose
from the dead while yet living, and when his physical death took
place the resurrection had already occurred, and the truth of the
resurrection from the dead had already been demonstrated. He will
soon come and write you.
I will not write more now, and with my love will say, good night.
Your own true and loving,
Helen
1 This was obviously the Easter period, and as is the
case also at Christmas, Jesus dislikes the worship directed at him,
and removes himself from its influence.
