Mars (Planet) -- Miscellanea; Spirit writings
Of course, our duty, as well as our sympathy, has impelled us to
assist them, and we have been engaged in the work of restoring to full
consciousness the many bewildered ones, who scarcely can be made to
realize the marvel, the joy of continued existence. So touching has the
experience been that many times my eyes have filled with tears. Other
Ento spirits are engaged in the incomplete work, for as you are aware,
some newly freed spirits, especially those who suddenly pass to the
spirit side, remain unconscious, not only for days, but for prolonged
periods. No, the spirit spheres of different planets are not alike, for
all correspond with the conditions of such planets as they surround.
Yet in a sense the conditions of all spirit spheres are so in harmony
with each other that spirits sufficiently progressed, and who have
learned the laws involved in these conditions, can visit any Spirit
Sphere of any planet. Yes, I recall that once during my childhood a
considerable seismic disturbance occurred under, and adjacent to the
plateau on which was our home, and that the alarmed people hastened to
offer sacrifices, and Andûman[a:] spared his offending children. The
Band approving, you may be shown the scene of the late catastrophe.
At present the conditions are so harrowing that it would not be wise
to subject you to them. The local and neighboring crematories, not
being equal to the incineration of the dead, many of the mutilated
bodies have been taken elsewhere. The cries and lamentations of the
living that no more shall they behold the forms of their dear ones is
pitiable in the extreme. Oh, that the time may quickly arrive when
Ento's despairing people may learn that their sorrowful belief in utter
annihilation is false. That continuity of existence is a glorious
reality.
Gentola--With all my heart I pray that it may be so, and if I, in
the slightest degree, may be made to further the fulfillment of your
desire, I shall rejoice that I have not lived in vain.
Genessano--Eman[a:] (friend), no one lives in vain. From the least
developed to the highest evolvement of the human of any planet, all are
fulfilling the Infinite, Intelligent, Divine Will. All are portions of
the waves of human progress, and no one can go forward without directly
or indirectly aiding his weaker, consequently less highly evolved
brother. In the spirit worlds, so well understood is this law that
sooner or later all spirits desire re-embodiment, that thus they may
not only aid mortals less evolved than themselves, but that in so doing
they also may advance their own spiritual evolvement. Yes, it would
appear that in this desire there is an element of selfishness. Not so.
It simply is the fulfilling of a law of the All Wise, Infinite One,
whom you name God.
