“Therefore, lack of training in dealing in subtle energies and the need for more personal development in some areas of our character can cause us to misinterpret the true source of such experiences and to incorrectly assume that they were our own personal experience.”

“When someone becomes obsessed with making money, or is obsessed with sex or has a jealous obsession, it has a very bad effect on their inner development. Rather than cultivating any of the finer feelings, they are leading a narrow and restricted life and have stunted their spiritual development. There is nothing inherently wrong with making money, with sex, or whatever; it is what people sometimes turn themselves into to fulfill their obsession that’s the real problem. It is the callous way they treat others that is the core of the issue. If they mislead, lie, cheat and steal in some way to get money, sex or power this is what stunts their development and puts them in harmony with low Astral levels and even Hell states. It is not so much what a person wants which is the problem; it is doing harm to others in order to get what they want which is the problem.”

“The cynic creates a mental barrier, or shield around themselves, that is hard to penetrate. Why should an Afterlifer bother with that? Afterlifers don’t owe it to us to prove anything, but usually they are only happy to do so if approached in an atmosphere of mutual respect. An atmosphere of love is even more suitable, when possible, as it is closer to what they are used to and makes it much easier for them to approach us. They experience our thoughts and feelings as a tangible atmosphere around us. What type of atmosphere do your thoughts and feelings create? What type of Afterlifer would feel comfortable getting close to it? Hold these facts in mind and your connection with those who have passed on can improve considerably.”

“The world regards you as ‘dead’, but you are more alive than ever. Go into that greater aliveness. Leave your physical body behind, you are done with it, and go into the light. There are those around you now to welcome you and help you move forward. Look for them and ask to see them if you can’t already. Go with them, go into the light. Let go of the things of the Earth. Go and claim the powers of your new life and you will be far better able to comfort those who mourn. There is nothing here on Earth for you now and you can visit later if you so choose. There is nothing for you to do here that you cannot do better later. Go now, go into the light. Go towards the help and the love of those who await you.” - William Fergus Martin”
