Insights and Heresies Pertaining to the Evolution of the Soul
Ammyeetis
Spiritual life -- Miscellanea
A thorough understanding of the laws of reembodiment, so far as we can
know them, entirely refutes the belief and the feeling of the injustice
of the Creator towards any human being. The law of evolution carries
the soul along from one expression of life to another giving to each
individual the opportunity to accumulate such knowledge, and to grow
such character as shall finally bring it to a state of perfection. The
discrepancies in human life are largely external. The millionaire,
envied by less fortunate beings, may be far below the poor, struggling
laborer in point of real unfoldment of soul. And again, people so
favored in this material experience of life may be forced by the very
nature of existence to return into humble conditions to learn the real
lessons of life here.
We are not the arbiters of our own destiny, and the sooner we conceive
the idea of non-resistence to fate, realize that our lives are guided
by unerring law, and simply set ourselves to trying to understand the
meanings of our experiences, and to trying to wring from each one all
that it is intended to teach us, seeking to learn from it all that we
possibly can in order that we may not be forced to be taught the
lessons over again, the better for our growth and happiness.
This earth, our birth place, our kindergarten school, and the
university from which we must each graduate, having once received us,
can never let go its hold upon one of its children until this final
result is attained. Over and over again, the lives of all who belong
to this planet pass into the invisible realms of Nature to rest from
the sordid and wearisome experiences of material life, and again return
to seek out further growth and understanding, until the final
culmination is reached. The soul is hurried on through its experiences
of departing and returning, until earth has no further lesson, no
further service to perform. Then, indeed, it may graduate and ascend
to its place among the gods.

Newly-embodied souls might be considered as raw material flung out upon
the sea of life to be ground and polished by experience, and grown into
a semblance of perfection befitting the "children of God."
