2-61. The Children of God were never meant to die. They were Created to fly. Free Will allows you to believe you are in hell. Truth will set you Free.
In this world, it appears undeniable that death will literally stalk you at every turn, slyly following behind you where you might wander, always a steadfastly silent companion, for how is anyone to leave this world other than through the gateway of physical death? Indeed there appears to be no possibility of avoiding death’s morbidly frigid embrace, so certain that it is and so hopelessly unrelenting in its pursuit of your life, seeking you constantly, lurking behind every darkened shadow of this world and happily awaiting your final return to its lair of disappearance, to be forever removed from this world, never to return again. But this is not the Truth. Certainly your body will fail, for it must - all that is physical was Created to change, to alter and to dissipate, returning to the components that compose your body, pieces of long dead stars that were forged in cataclysmic disintegrations that were essential for creating the heavier elements that are so fundamental to the biological processes of physical life. But does this necessarily entail the cessation of your existence as well? Do you truly believe that all that you are could possibly be contained within and appropriately represented by a mere aggregation of constituent parts, assembled from nutrition given so gently by your mother’s body as she carried you in her womb? Are you truly so bold as to assert that this wonderful body of yours, so functional and so expertly designed to provide you with a vessel that is most certainly worthy of a Child of God, should somehow be the summary whole of all that you are, in Truth? This is a fallacy of the highest order, a misrepresentation of your existence so vast and so overwhelmingly false that it truly has no meaning, for you are so much more than just the highly useful body that your Soul now utilizes that to assert that this body of yours must be all that there could ever be to the Infinity of Creation is preposterously incorrect. You were not Created to die, precious Child of God. You were Created to live - to truly Live, free of all that previously appeared able to render you mute, incapable of expressing the Glory and Light of your Soul while you remain a temporary resident of this world. What form of mad cruelty do you truly wish to ascribe to God, that God might grant you life, only to have that life cease after such a short period of time as the average human lifespan encompasses? Only a form of darkness so profound that it cannot even begin to understand its own nature could possibly propose such a untenable arrangement. Such a darkness can only be found in the ego, for the ego is truly the summary representative of your body, now rendered into an apparently logical form within the vastness of your mind, demanding representation for its presumed existence, even though the ego is far too blind to see that it has never actually existed. It is an apparition, a ghostly construct generated purely for its own sake, relying utterly on your beliefs in the necessity of its existence for its continued presence in your mind. It offers you nothing, yet it requests that you give up all that is True in exchange for that which is - quite literally - nothing at all. Do you truly wish to effect this trade? Do you truly wish to believe that you are destined to vanish from all of Creation at the moment of your physical death, a whisper of a life now forgotten and a voice now rendered inaudible because it no longer has a mouth through which it can utter words? Do not accept this mad bargain, Child of God. It is truly the definition of meaninglessness and madness to believe that you will fade away into nothingness when your body ceases to function. You were not Created to die - you were Created to Live. To Live is to be Present in each moment, functioning and perceiving from a perspective of Truth and Light rather than from the pointless darkness and despair that is the core of the ego. This world will always be a simple reflection of all of the thoughts and beliefs that you wish to project upon it. It cannot be any other way, for this world is utterly neutral - it has no existence outside of that which you give to it from your willingness to allow its presence to be accepted into the realm of your mind. Create hell on Earth if you wish, believing this to be a place of horrors and death, a macabre carnival of isolation or perhaps a dungeon of punishment and pain. You are welcome to do so if you wish, and certainly you can see in the actions and words of others who have elected this path of insanity just how much they became bizarrely twisted in their approach to all that they perceived when they attempted to braid the strands of their individual perceptive framework into a web of lies and deceit, believing that this world and all of its occupants wished them only the greatest harm and injury. Yet it was only they that wounded themselves, choosing to live in a world populated by the grey skies of death, drinking the poisoned waters of their own errors, slowly rotting away from a malignant tumor of denial that they created for themselves when they accepted their ego’s treachery instead of the Truth that remained forever hidden from them, ensconced in hearts that refused to See their own Light. But this need not be the way of this world for you, beautiful Child of God. You can rise above all of this presumed misery and death, literally creating a new form of perception within your own mind simply through accepting that your ability to recognize the dormant - or perhaps now Awakening - Truth within your heart as the only perceptual framework that you wish to ever employ again when you regard this world and its vast number of inhabitants. The Truth of God’s infinite Love for you, and by inexorable extension for all of the other Children of God who find themselves now resident in bodies, will liberate you from the previously unbreakable shackles of your ego, Freeing you to See with healed perception, now regarding a world that was specifically Created to maximize all of the possible opportunities that will forever arise, each a Gift from God for all are sufficient to allow you to escape the ego in a single bound, reemerging from the blackest cocoon of the ego’s madness into the Light that has forever surrounded you, both within and without in equal measure. You are already Free, Child of God. This world will be just as you perceive it for just as long as you wish to perceive it as such. The choice remains forever firmly rooted within your own mind - a choice to see a world of night, or a healed world of Light from which nothing will ever again be the same, for what you once regarded as temporary will be recreated as eternal. What was once a place of temporary existence will be Seen as it actually is - a playground of materiality, a wonderful Garden of Awareness and a location within the firmament of Creation from which you can truly soar, flying ever upwards through the heavens to rejoin the Mind of God, now Freed from error in all forms and liberated to be just as you have always been - a Perfect Child of God.
