Divinity Now: Dealing with the loss of loved ones; and the immortality of the soul

How do we come to grips with crisis, with the loss of loved ones, and questions of the immortality of the soul?
This is the topic of today's video.
This is Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
I'm the editor of this website, naturalnews.com, and then the creator of this website, divinitynow.com, which is about connection with spirit, conscious cosmology, and other similar topics.
A couple of days ago I wrote this article about the Colorado Batman shooting and A lot of people read it.
It got a lot of shares all over the internet.
But it didn't address the bigger questions.
That was more of a journalistic article about asking questions.
Factual questions.
You know, this seems suspicious.
How can a med school student acquire bomb-making skills and things like that?
But I think it's more appropriate right now to really focus on the questions of Those who lost loved ones, what does it mean when we lose loved ones?
What happens to them?
What is their experience after they die from this world?
How do we find some kind of closure?
Because each of us has lost someone important in our lives.
Often it's our relatives, our parents, our grandparents, sometimes it's children, sometimes it's siblings.
In any case, in every case I should say, it is emotionally devastating.
So of course my heart goes out to those who lost people in this shooting event in Aurora, Colorado.
It's even more important, I think, to understand the bigger picture of what happens when someone leaves this world.
Because it is the ultimate pessimism to think that when we die in these physical bodies, we cease to exist.
That is simply not true.
And one of the messages I want to get across to you here in this video is that the soul is immortal.
And here's an image that sort of...
A nice colorful image that sort of looks at that depicted.
Here's a connection between the body and the cosmos is essentially what this is portraying.
And there are many other images, similar types of things.
This is an image of an aura showing the non-physical body that exists.
And we all have a non-physical presence.
We all have a connection with God.
And it's depicted in angels, by the way.
All angel pictures, virtually all of them, show halos.
For example, here's a halo around the angel's head.
That is the spirit body.
Here's another halo.
Around the angel's head, you always see an energetic body, even in Christian art, even in art of other religions.
There's always the energetic light, the spirit, the soul, if you will, and the connection with the divine.
And it's reflected throughout.
I mean, here it is, very, very obvious right there.
The halo is an energetic element of light.
And I'll talk in a minute about what that really means, what that signifies.
But the point is that we are more than just physical beings.
We are, in fact, spiritual beings inhabiting physical bodies.
We have free will, we have free spirit, free choice, we have consciousness, we have self-awareness, and that is actually self-evident in and of itself.
So we can simply be aware that we are aware by observing ourselves thinking about what we're thinking about.
I know it sounds like a tongue twister, but that is, of course, the very essence of meditation.
Prayer is much the same thing, just in the Christian tradition.
Prayer is a calming of the mind, a focusing on what outcomes you wish to see in the world, asking for guidance, all of these issues.
Meditation is similar, except it's more about calming the mind, stopping the chatter, and then observing yourself, becoming the observer of what you are experiencing.
So all of these things indicate that we have a non-physical problem.
Presence, you can say, a soul, an immortal soul.
Now, getting back to what happened in the shooting, this individual, James Holmes here, went into the theater, allegedly, and shot a bunch of people.
Now, did he shoot their souls?
No.
Souls are bulletproof.
In other words, bullets cannot even interact with souls, which means that you can take away someone's physical body, and that's tragic enough by itself, but Have some faith in the idea that those individuals who were killed in that shooting were not destroyed.
Their souls, in other words, were not annihilated.
They continued to exist.
And obviously there's a lot of different conjecture about what happens life after death.
Do they go to heaven?
Here's some gates of heaven right here.
This is a typical kind of picture.
Heaven is something above, in the clouds.
With lots of penetrating light, where you meet your creator, a greater consciousness, a greater intelligence, a greater being, and so on.
What is present in all of these stories throughout the Bible and other religions is that your soul continues to exist.
So you do not cease to exist simply by being killed or dying from other things.
So my first message...
As the creator of Divinity Now here, to those families who have lost individuals, have lost family members in the shooting, or any of us who lose family members in any circumstances, is number one, To recognize that that person's essence lives on.
That the soul is immortal and that they are not destroyed even if their physical bodies have been destroyed or rendered non-functioning.
Now this is true for any of us.
Life is very short and life is very fragile.
And any of us could be killed at any moment.
By almost anything.
Even something like an exploding supernova star in another galaxy that may have exploded two billion years ago could have sent out a jet of searing hot light and energy pointed precisely in our direction and that light could arrive in the next ten minutes and just obliterate the entire planet.
That is a real possibility.
It's not likely, but it could happen at any moment and we would all be, our physical bodies would be destroyed instantly.
We could be hit by a meteor and all of us die instantly.
There could be individual things, car wrecks, swimming pool accidents, struck by lightning.
Stung by a bee and have an allergic reaction that kills us.
Any number of things.
An accident.
I work on a farm in Texas.
I could have a farming accident, let's say.
And could die at any moment physically.
All of us are fragile.
And if you think about How fragile we really are, it's quite astonishing.
You know, we have to have oxygen supplied to our cells in every second, especially to our brain.
And if our brain goes without oxygen for two to three, maybe up to six minutes on the very far side, we begin, well, we die, I mean physically.
So the heart is obviously the organ that helps to circulate the blood and push that oxygen into our cells, and so Virtually all causes of death, no matter what's written on the death certificate, virtually all actual causes of death are lack of oxygen to the brain.
And the brain is a fragile thing.
Our atmosphere is a fragile thing.
If you go outside the Earth's atmosphere, you're into a realm where we could not survive.
You can't survive on the Moon, you can't survive on Mars, and so on without extremes of protection.
So...
We are a fragile physical body into which or through which our consciousness is experiencing this life.
So for those who die in a crisis, a shooting, an accident, whatever the case may be, their soul goes on.
And this again is a depiction of the energetic body that each of us has.
And by the way, you might say, well how can all this energy penetrate us?
How can this be real?
Your body is penetrated right now in every second by literally trillions of neutrinos.
Neutrinos that are put out by the sun.
And these neutrinos penetrate your body and penetrate the earth.
At huge numbers, literally trillions go through your body alone in every second of your life.
And you don't even feel them.
They are real.
Scientists have detected them and documented them.
They're called neutrinos.
You can search on that term if you're curious.
But they penetrate us and we don't feel them and they don't even interact with our physical body in any way whatsoever.
There are things beyond neutrinos that scientists haven't yet been able to fully document that will, I believe, someday be revealed as the energetic body that we are in addition to the physical body, the connection to spirit that also exists.
So, let me show you some other pictures of that.
Here's another picture of the human aura.
This is sort of an egg-shaped field with a tendency to concentrate the energy right here.
And this is typically depicted as what in New Age circles are called chakra centers, the different colors.
Red being typically chakra number one, and then orange, yellow, green, blue.
It should be here, actually.
The fifth chakra.
For those who don't subscribe to the New Age sort of visuals or terminology, again, angels show exactly the same thing, so isn't that interesting?
You know, sometimes Christians say, well, you know...
You're satanic because you're talking about a New Age concept.
Sometimes the New Agers say, well, you're crazy because you're talking about the Bible.
And here it is.
It's all the same thing.
If you actually look at the image, which here, let me actually just expand this.
So here we go.
Typical Christian art, an obvious concentration of energy right here.
This is the halo.
This is exactly the same thing.
And here's the human aura from the New Age world, which also shows exactly the same thing.
Now, personally, I don't mind talking about either realm.
I've got friends in the Christian world, and I've got friends in the New Age world, and I've got friends who don't believe in any of it because they're, quote, scientists.
It's all fine.
Everybody's got a different sort of story they tell themselves.
But the truth is, I mean, the greater truth, the higher truth is that, or at least this is what I believe, and you'll find this on Divinity Now, there is a creator, okay?
Our universe was created by a creator.
And that creator, I mean, even if you go back into physics and you look at, well, the Big Bang and what happened before the Big Bang and what created the space-time fabric into which the Big Bang expanded and so on...
As you get back into those questions, there is, sooner or later, there's got to be a creator.
There has to be a cause to have an action.
And the cause is the creator.
And the creator could be lots of things.
It could be a godlike, super-intelligent being.
It could be, in fact, a godlike advanced civilization, billions of years more advanced than us.
And some physicists have even said that...
Our world is actually a giant physics experiment that has been set up by another advanced race of intelligent beings.
There's an interesting perspective for you.
In any case, I'm not going to go too deeply into that.
But the point is that...
So our soul is immortal, right?
Here's the energetic element of who we are.
And even if we are killed, even if a loved one is killed, even if there's an accident, whatever happens...
The essence of who we are, the consciousness, the soul, goes on.
So that cannot be destroyed by anything physical.
Not by a bomb, not by a gun, not even by a tidal wave, not by a volcano.
That can't be destroyed.
That goes on.
So we should take some solace in that understanding.
The other thing I want to mention is that we all take our lives way too seriously.
I have no doubt that once we do move on past this physical experience, we are going to look back and just laugh our heads off.
It's going to be like rolling on the floor laughing in heaven.
We're going to laugh at how seriously we took everything and all the drama and all the intensity.
And I'm sure we're going to say, wow, that was a really fascinating experience.
But boy, we were sure wrapped up in the seriousness of our own lives.
This is why I like to joke around with humor, with satire.
Life has got to be fun.
And we do take it all way too seriously.
And even if we die...
And we end up here at the gates of heaven or whatever your particular belief system is.
I have no doubt that we'll look back and we'll laugh about our lives, but more importantly, we will be judged at this point.
And this is something I want to talk about for a moment.
As we live our lives, we are creating a record book, a log, if you will, an archive, a karmic spreadsheet of our pluses and minuses, all the things that we've done.
Things that we've done that are quote good would include expressing compassion for others, helping others, mentoring a child, protecting innocent lives, helping to enlighten and awaken others, acting with humility rather than pride, respecting nature.
Seeking to create things rather than destroy things.
Seeking to tell the truth rather than practice deception.
All of these issues which are really laid out in every major world religion, including Christianity.
Those are all good things, and for all those you get bonus points, let's say.
Plus one, plus five, plus ten.
Obviously, it's not actually a bunch of numbers in heaven.
I'm just sort of using that as an illustration.
But you get bonus points for doing good things.
Now then on the negative side, of course, let's see if we can find some kind of hell, like hellish creature.
Here's some kind of demonic, I don't know, I guess that's not going to show up in these search results.
But, okay, here's like a fallen angel, dark angel.
Here you go.
So for this kind of thing, If you do negative things in your life, you get a bunch of negative points and you end up like this person, fallen, dark, lifeless, whatever.
Those would be destroying things, destroying nature, killing other forms of life, especially people.
that you get some pretty pretty major negative points for that lying all the time deceiving all the time basically just being a wicked deceptive destructive person that's going to earn you a lot of negative points lots and so then when when you face your day of reckoning in at the gates of heaven again depicted by this image or again whatever belief system that you currently follow then you're going to be judged
And this is also true of lots of people who have had near-death experiences, and they've actually died, and they've actually gone to a judgment place where they knew they were going to be judged and either go to heaven or to the pits of hell to be destroyed and annihilated.
And they realized that, but then some of them actually came back, were returned to life, and lived to tell the story.
And this happens throughout every culture, throughout every world religion.
Everywhere around the world, that story is much the same.
So we know that that's an experience that people are actually having.
So when you are judged, then what happens is, at least my estimation of it, and I don't claim to be God, I don't claim to know everything, but this is just my estimation of it, after exploring this issue for quite some time,
is that You are either judged as being a creative positive force in the universe, in which case you are granted to enter the gates of heaven, again, this image, or you are judged to be an evil, destructive, terrible person, in which case you are banished to the depths of the pits of hell.
To suffer for eternity in something like this or this.
And also another possibility may be that your soul is simply annihilated.
So that your soul is in fact killed at that point.
So hell might be complete annihilation.
Not just suffering.
That's just another possibility.
That's not written in scripture anywhere or anything like that.
I'm fascinated by scripture.
By the way, I'm starting to read more and more of it.
When I was a kid, I was really turned off by being sort of forced to go to church.
But now that I'm considerably older, I find the scripture quite fascinating and really seeking to learn more.
There's a lot of wisdom in the scriptures, again, of every major world religion.
So, getting back to the main point here, If you're trying to think about, okay, how do you deal with a shooting?
How do you deal with the loss of a loved one?
How do you move on with your life?
The answer is, I believe, the best answer, let me get to the right picture here, is to live your life in the most constructive, proactive, creative, faith-honoring way possible.
And knowing that your life is short, your life is fragile, and that the greater universe is keeping score.
So that whatever you choose to do in this life, there's a record of it.
And that every day is a precious gift to be able to move forward and to Well, that's interesting.
This is called black angel art.
I didn't even really notice that.
African American angels.
Blackartdepot.com.
That's interesting.
Yeah, obviously angels are of every color.
It's not like heaven is whites only.
That would be ridiculous.
It's obviously open to...
It's based on your soul, not your skin color.
So, well, obviously that's a very basic concept.
But the point is, you've got this time left, And...
You've got to be able to use this blessing of every day in your life to be able to simply do good in the world, to make sure that you are going to be invited into the gates of heaven, or whatever actual depiction that may be, after the death of your physical body, because your soul is immortal.
Now, that means that everything you do, you know, a lot of dark people, I don't mean dark-skinned people, Thank you.
Like deceptive, demonic people.
Let's see if we can find something like that.
Demons of hell.
How about that?
We should be able to get some pictures there.
Yeah, alright.
This is more like it.
So...
Awful stuff.
Alright, so here's pictures of the demons of hell.
And here's a depiction of some of the souls that are suffering in hell.
Isn't that a famous painting?
Yeah, I think so.
The people who live in this life...
With deception and destruction and hatred, hateful actions towards others, and obviously engaging in massacres or mass shootings of innocent people.
Those kind of people are going to end up in something like this.
It won't actually be their physical body.
This is just a depiction.
It will be more like their souls suffering in eternal, hellish type of conditions.
Actually, that's the Balrog from Lord of the Rings, and that's probably not the best picture.
Here's an interesting one.
Some kind of suffering right here.
Satan and the demons of hell.
That kind of suffering is practically guaranteed.
So if you're the kind of person that runs around lying, Deceiving everybody, stealing from people, harming others, causing bad things to happen to other people, exercising selfish greed at every turn, and just thinking about yourself and no one else, then you're going to end up riding a motorcycle in the pits of hell, apparently.
How does a motorcycle guy get here into the pits of hell search result?
Crusty demons?
Okay, whatever.
Anyway, enough of that.
Let's get back to the angel pictures, which are a lot more...
There we go.
Angel tattoos.
Let's get some angel tattoos.
Heavenly angels.
Here we go.
All right, finally, we get back to some heavenly angels.
So, if you do the right things...
Which means abiding by a code of ethics, exercising compassion, and so on.
Then you're going to be joined in heaven by, apparently, a Japanese anime Barbie doll with a halo.
I'm just amused by some of the search results.
There's some weird stuff in here.
You know, that's the internet for you.
But the point is, you're going to be judged by what you do.
So, The other big concept I want to get across in all of this is that we're all going to die physically.
So what really, really matters is the way we live our lives.
In alignment with compassion, with love toward others, with working to educate and awaken others, to protect innocent lives, all of these things.
So we're all going to die physically again, sooner or later.
Some of us are going to die from accidents.
Some of us are going to die from just, you know, quote, old age.
Others will die from chronic disease.
Some people will die from chemotherapy.
You know, some people will die from strokes or heart attacks.
Everybody's going to expire physically.
All of us.
That's something that we don't really realize.
A lot of people just sort of go through life as if they're going to be immortal.
They've got to catch the football game on Monday Night Football.
That's the most important thing in their life.
They have to...
I have to get this video game and play this video game.
That's the most important thing.
They have to make another million dollars.
That's the most important thing in their lives at that moment.
And that's absurd.
Those things don't matter.
Those things are not going to help you in the big, big picture.
And living a purposeful life does not have to be a long life.
Given that we're all going to die, And given that experiences vary, you know, mileage may vary, what matters is not the duration of our life, but the way in which we live it.
So even in that shooting in Aurora, Colorado, there were young men who shielded the bodies of their girlfriends and then were shot and died as a result.
Is that a life of redemption?
Is that a life worth living?
A life of purpose and a life of acting in the kindness of protecting innocence?
You bet it is.
So those young men, they may have only been 18 or 19 years old.
They may have redeemed themselves in that short time more than most people who lived into their 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, who lived an evil life of greed and selfishness and deception.
You see what I mean?
So the duration of your life is not nearly as important as we all think.
We talk about longevity.
We talk about wanting to live to 100.
We talk about eternal youth and all of these things.
And a lot of that's just the cosmetic industry trying to get you to get plastic surgery.
But the deeper truth of it is that you could redeem yourself right now and die tomorrow and still be invited into the gates of heaven.
Now, let's talk about redemption for a minute, because I want to share some clarity on this thought.
Some people believe, and this is promoted by the Church, especially the Catholic Church, they believe that you can commit evil deeds all your entire life, you know, rob people, rape people, murder people, whatever the case may be, steal, deceive, lie, all your life, and then as long as you repent on your deathbed, that you will then be accepted into the gates of heaven.
Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.
How long has it been since you've confessed?
It has been a lifetime, Father, and I'm confessing now, is sort of the way that's supposed to go.
In my belief, that is nonsense.
You cannot live your life in complete deception, destruction, selfishness, sin, and so on, and then just ask for forgiveness at the very last minute, and then be invited into the gates of heaven.
Why would it be that way?
If a God-like being were looking over you, why would he accept that?
He wouldn't.
You must earn your redemption.
You must earn your place in whatever experience happens after this life.
You cannot simply get a get-out-of-jail-free card at the very last minute.
It doesn't work that way.
I'm sure of it.
I mean, I can't be 100% sure, but I'm not going to live my life based on the belief that I can just commit sins all my life and then at the very end say, oh, please forgive me, and then boom, get out of jail free or get out of hell free card is what it should be called, and then all of a sudden you're in heaven.
What you really have to do, this is my belief and this is what I'm sharing.
What you really have to do is you have to earn your way into redemption.
You have to earn your way into heaven, so to speak.
And you do that by having a positive balance sheet on that karmic record-keeping that we talked about earlier.
So you've done some bad things in your life.
We've all done some bad things.
Mostly when we were all younger and we didn't know what we were doing, right?
You know, we lied about stealing the cookies.
Some of us did a lot more serious things than that.
Maybe you hurt someone.
Maybe you killed someone.
Maybe you stole a car.
Who knows?
Maybe you stole a million dollars from the retirement fund of your employees.
Who knows what you did?
Whatever you did, it can be redeemed.
But it's going to take a lot more than just claiming forgiveness at the very end.
It's going to take action.
It's going to take dedication to living a path of divinity now, which is sort of why I named it this way.
This is Conscious Cosmology.
So in whatever days you have remaining, you have an opportunity, a blessing, a gift, to be able to then earn your way into redemption, to out-earn the negative side of the things you've done by having more positive points in place when that final judgment day really comes.
And I believe we have to operate on a rule of three.
If you've done a negative thing, you have to do three positive things just to break even to counter the negative thing.
So if you stole something, let's say you stole $1,000 from somebody, you need to now donate $3,000 to your local churches or charities just to make good on the $1,000.
And by the way, you probably need to give the $1,000 back and apologize and ask for forgiveness on that too.
If you've ever done anything to harm 10 people, you need to do something equally profound to help 30 people.
You see where I'm going with this?
And if you've ever killed someone in an unjustified way...
Well, we can get into more of that later.
There are justified killings, by the way.
And self-defense is a justified taking of a physical life.
That's not a sin.
Not in my book.
It should be a last resort.
It should be something done reluctantly.
But, for example, if you take the crazy guy doing the shooting in Aurora, Colorado, would you have been acting in alignment with the divine to have pulled out a gun and shot him In the middle of his shooting in order to save innocent lives and save children and save women and so on.
And the answer is yes, absolutely.
That is a divinely justified taking of a human life in the protection of other life.
And again, it's a last resort.
It's not something that anyone should ever look forward to.
It's not something that anyone should be...
I'm hoping to do, but if you do it, that's not a sin.
That is actually a very courageous act in the protection of life.
So that would actually work in your favor on the karmic balance sheet.
You know, seriously, you walk into heaven, the angels say, hey, good job, you know, you protected 20 or 30 people that otherwise would have been killed in that massacre because you took out the bad guy.
The destructive person.
The demon.
The satanically taken over destructive person.
And the angels would say, you did a good thing.
I very much believe that self-defense is a divine right.
Now I understand there are some people who say that there are no circumstances under which you should take another life.
To some extent I respect that philosophy.
It's a...
It's a reasonable philosophy in some ways, but you won't see me going out to a movie with that person.
You won't see me hanging around with that person because I want to be with people who are compassionate, who are willing to defend their children, who are willing to defend innocent people, the lives of loved ones, and I refuse to be around Passive, paralyzed individuals.
But that's just my choice.
I suppose that other people may disagree, and that's fine.
I respect their positions.
I just won't hang out with them.
Because it would be dangerous, obviously.
In any case, I'm going to wrap this up now, and I want to give you the big points one more time, just a quick overview.
First of all, when we lose loved ones, We should always remember the soul is immortal.
The soul cannot be destroyed by bombs or bullets or anything like that.
Not even by radiation.
The soul is radiation proof.
That might be handy when you're visiting Fukushima.
Life is fragile.
Life can be taken away from us at any moment, in any instant, for any number of reasons.
So each day of life that we have remaining is an opportunity, a gift, to boost up the numbers on our karmic balance sheet so that when we do face that day of judgment at the gates of heaven, that we are deemed worthy of being granted entry into whatever experience exists beyond that for our souls, for our consciousness.
Another point is that the New Age concept of the human aura, the energetic body, the spirit, the connection with the divine, is in fact identical to the angelic concepts from Christianity.
Here's a dove with an aura.
It's a three-point aura in the image of birds.
In fact, here we go.
So here's a picture of Jesus Christ with...
A complex aura.
This wheel is actually...
Oh, and look at that.
This is almost like a lotus flower on top, which is used in Buddhism.
So here we have some of the same symbology.
This is, of course, the wheel.
A complex wheel of radiant energy coming out with angels nearby and heaven, clouds, light, higher consciousness.
All of these images are embodied in this kind of imagery.
So again, it's the same.
It's the same as the New Age imagery.
It's just a different vocabulary.
We've also got...
The concept that we take life too seriously.
We're all going to die physically.
And what really matters when that happens is the way we live our lives and what kind of choices we made.
What kinds of things we chose to do with our lives.
Wow, look at all these images.
These are pretty cool.
Some of the different energetic bodies.
Here's an angelic...
Almost a fractal art reflecting some of the basic geometry found throughout not only science but also in nature.
You see these kinds of images in certain vegetables and cactus, different kinds of plants, leaf patterns, all kinds of fascinating things.
And then finally, the best way to deal with loss, I believe, is to first recognize that that person has not been destroyed.
That person continues to exist, just not here.
It's obviously very difficult.
It's appropriate to grieve.
We've got to have that emotional feeling.
Closure with the loss of lives, but then it is important to commit to walking the path in our own lives in a way that honors those who are lost.
So if you've lost a loved one, a brother, a sister, a mother, father, the best way to honor them is to live your life in alignment with the principles that you know to be good.
The principles of Helping those in need, principles of compassion, of awakening, education, and so on.
All of these things that you know to be good.
So, that's all that we can really ask for, is to have the blessing of days of our lives to earn whatever happens after this particular existence.
And that is an absolute blessing.
It's the greatest gift of all.
Free will and consciousness is the greatest gift.
And that's a gift that we've been given by our collective creator.
And to use that gift for a positive purpose in alignment with divinity is, in fact, a life worth living.
And that's what I want to encourage you to explore.
If you've made mistakes, make amends.
If you've walked, if you've strayed from the path of alignment with the divine, get back on the path.
Walk that path now toward the divine and earn salvation for your soul.
Earn redemption for your soul.
And if you do so, it matters not whether you die tomorrow or in 50 years.
It makes no difference.
Because this lifetime is over in the blink of an eye.
And it is of no consequence in the bigger picture even.
This whole experience is almost a first-person comedy, you might say, that we experience.
And then it's over.
And then what really matters is, what did we earn in the afterlife?
How did we choose to proceed?
How did we choose to interact with others around us, with other conscious beings, with other plants and animals and nature?
Did we choose to help awaken and uplift people and empower them?
Or did we choose to join with destructive government and enslavement and deception and All of these things.
I could go into a lot of areas of this.
I'm not going to go into much detail, but just briefly, if you eat synthetic food made by man, altered by man, genetically modified foods, that is, in essence...
Anti-God.
That is demonic in a sense.
It is destructive.
It's not in alignment with the divine.
If you eat wholesome foods made by nature, created by nature, that is in alignment with the divine.
And in terms of medicine, if you take artificial synthetic damaging medicine like chemotherapy, that is destroying your own physical body and choosing to do so.
And that is destructive.
That is against That is against the wishes of the Creator.
If you instead attempt to prevent or treat cancer with natural substances, nutrients like vitamin D, which is very powerful in that realm, natural medicines, plant-based medicines, things like that, nutrients, food, sunshine, that is in alignment with the divine.
And regardless of whether you live or die from that point forward, you will be honored For living in alignment with the divine.
So all those people who give their bodies over to pharmaceutical companies and processed food and synthetic, addictive street drugs, you know, heroin, well, not just heroin, but designer drugs like the bath salts and so on, they are clearly following a path of destructive, anti-God, anti-creator self-destruction.
And that's why they lose their minds and they become demonic.
And they actually start eating other people.
That's what happens with the bath salts and the designer drugs.
Whereas someone who has good nutrition, someone who practices healthful living, also tends to have good presence of mind An intact soul, an intact sense of awareness, intact consciousness,
and can then move through the world with a sense of maturity, thoughtfulness, introspection, self-reflection, and understanding the greater implications or ramifications of their own present-day actions.
How do we impact others?
How do we impact the greater world around us?
Just by choosing different foods to eat in the grocery store, we create a chain, a long domino effect, you might say, of ramifications from our actions.
The way in which we choose to interact with people.
And all of these things go in to create our karmic record, which is what we will ultimately be judged on, I believe, when that day comes for each of us.
And that day comes when our heart stops beating, or when our brain stops getting oxygen.
And that physical body that we now inhabit...
Becomes a piece of history and actually returns to the earth ashes to ashes dust to dust But our soul is neither ash nor dust and it goes on and it goes on to be judged So how would how will your soul be judged?
Wherever you are whatever you are doing perhaps our souls We'll meet one day in a different reality and we'll be able to reminisce about what a bizarre and comedic experience our lives were on this planet.
But also how wonderful.
What a blessing it was to have this life experience.
But that in the bigger picture, it was almost like a dream.
Life is but a dream, they say, right?
Well, those are my thoughts for today.
On this subject, my hearts go out to all the victims of the shooting in Colorado right here.
But I hope they also gain a deeper understanding of the immortality of the soul and why the loss of a loved one should only make us even more motivated to live a life in alignment with the principles.
