This morning I received some spirit messages that I seemed to understand while they were communicated to me, but forgot them as soon as they stopped being sent. They included thoughts and visual imagery. I believe I can trust these messages, because I was connected to a being that radiated love and peace when I received them. Plus, I just about always make contact with divine guidance during the hours that proceed my getting out of bed.

I tried to recollect the messages that were sent to me, and some things occurred to me. I'm not one hundred percent certain that what I came up with is accurate.  When considering what I came up with, I had the mind set of not limiting myself to finding out only what I want to find out. I allowed myself to find out what's true.

I believe that sometimes the most loving thing to do is to allow ourselves to become aware of certain kinds of information, even if this means becoming aware of information that the compassionate part of our self's don't want to become aware of. If we don't allow ourselves to become aware of unpleasant information not only do we prevent ourselves from obtaining knowledge that will enable us to help, we also allow our heart chakra to be blocked.

We incarnate into this World because it is one of the ways in which we learn to manifest in a tangible manner. Before we take part in a means of learning, we are souls who lack the knowledge of how to manifest in a way that provides our souls with something to be aware of.  One of the key lessons we try to learn is how to love. People who have near death experiences often state that one of the key reasons we incarnate into this World is so we can learn to live according to love.

If a person spent most of his life learning to be an angry, hateful, malicious, irreverent and self-centered person, this person probably won't have the attributes he needs when he moves on to the spirit World. If you attempted to cleanse away the negative attributes of such a spirit you might find that nothing is left over after the cleansing process is completed, because while occupying a human body, this spirit didn't do anything to develop positive attributes.  

Some people speak of the transformative effect of a life review. But if a spirit doesn't have any positive qualities to begin with, you won't have anything to work with. You can't make a chocolate cake if the ingredients you have don't have anything to do with chocolate cake. I understand that people who go through life reviews state that they become aware of the suffering they cause other people to experience. However, unless a spirit understands at least a little about compassion, becoming aware of how it caused others to suffer might not matter. Consider the way of people in this World that derive pleasure by causing others to suffer. If it wasn't for the fact that they are aware that they are causing others to suffer, they wouldn't derive pleasure by doing so. I figure the same is true of a malicious spirit. Such a spirit engages in malicious activity because it enjoys seeing others suffer.

There is also the matter of how we are connected to all that we influence. If a person did nothing but harm and influence other people while alive, this person's spirit would have a history that is full of regrets. Perhaps in such instances reincarnation is called for. However, a spirit would probably have to be able to advance enough so it could be prepared for another incarnation.

Some people might state that there is more than negative attributes a negative minded spirit could rely on. Each of us has love as our base. I wonder if this is an accurate viewpoint. Perhaps love is an energy level that doesn't belong to anyone in particular, but can be experienced by any soul that learns to live according to a way of understanding that allows it to open up to such an energy level.

Bruce Moen wrote that some souls can't be retrieved because they become too separated from PUL. Some people might wonder why don't the divine powers that be just cleanse away the negative thought patterns that such a spirit has accumulated? Perhaps they don't do so because they understand that if you did so nothing would be left over but a spirit with no attributes.
   

Juditha:

I believe you took a good approach with your coworkers.

Blink:

What I wrote is quite different than what I usually write.

People develop all kinds of personalities.  It is possible that somebody like Adolph Hitler didn't develop any positive attributes. If you were to negate all of the attributes he developed, what would he be left with?

Perhaps a way exists where he could develop new attributes of mind. He'd have to stop clinging to the attributes he developed.

Juditha said: I do that because you have to give a bit extra love as theres not enough to go around

First, thank you the responses.

Second, as I wrote in my first post, I'm not one hundred percent certain, and I'm trying to figure this out.

I basically believe that all of our souls start out in a place with a lot of love.  We lose track of this love to varying degrees when we incarnate in this World.  Sometimes this happens because a child, perhaps with unloving parents, doesn't receive the love that all souls want to receive.  Such a child will find another way to cope, and this can lead to a negative way of being.

Perhaps a key question is, what does it take to learn about compassion? Once we get to the point where we care about others, we're on our way to the light. Perhaps once a spirit learns to have compassion for itself, rather than making use of some means of coping, it will learn to have compassion for others. It'll take a clear look at the first events during its bodily life that caused it to close itself off from love. Once it opens up to love, it'll be able to receive love from the spirit beings that try to help it, and as Spooky suggests, it'll start to remember what it knew before it incarnated.

Even if this soul was completely negative while occupying a body, it might've noticed how some people tried to share love with it (sorry about the "it"), and might've noticed how people shared love with each other.  Such exposure could influence a soul on a level it doesn't become conscious of until it start to open up to love.

Recoverer and others,

If we really look truthfully into our most inner being, into exactly how our minds, thoughts and souls, then we should realise how imperfect we are when compared to the sublime perfection of God.

Nothing we do in life can ever match even his minimum standards. At present we are finite and mortal and God is infinite and immortal.

This gap is the void where the grace of God reaches down in love to pull us up to his sublime love and perfection. We can accept this offer of grace or embrace it with the love he extends it to us.

Or reject it like Hitler id and face the consequences
