The journey of the Self · Teaching 7 of 7

Life After Life

Why we choose this Earth plane, the cycles of seven, and returning to the source.

We come to this Earth plane as a speck of Cosmic Consciousness.

While coming from the source, we come with the Etheric Body as a structure for the Self. We come to this Earth plane to have unique experiences. For our experiences, we select the womb, the parents, the environment and the situations. The whole design of life is known to the Self.

Birth

After selecting the mother, the speck of consciousness enters the mother’s womb, and the fetus gets life. The physical body takes shape according to the Cosmic Energy in the Etheric Body, and according to the cause. Consciousness travels frequently to the source until it takes its first breath. After coming out of the mother’s womb, it takes its first external breath. This is known as birth.

The cycles of seven

  • From birth to the age of seven, we have awareness of the source.
  • The mind starts taking its shape at seven, and is completely formed by fourteen.
  • The intellect begins to activate at fourteen, and is fully developed by twenty-one.
  • From twenty-one to twenty-eight, one experiences the combination of body, mind and intellect.
  • From the age of twenty-eight, life depends on Self-knowledge.

Without awareness of the Self, one’s consciousness lies between body and mind, and misery starts. Situations cannot be understood, and things become more critical. One moulds oneself into a concealed rigidness, and rigidness blocks the cosmic flow, bringing stress and tension. One passes the days without awareness, unable to understand the very purpose of life, moving from childhood to youth to old age, and finally passing from this Earth plane without completing the purpose of coming here.

It is what we call death.

Even after death, the layer of rigid mind with wrong understanding does not allow the consciousness to reach the source. Because of the wrong understanding, one creates one’s own hell and heaven, and stays as a lower astral being.

If one starts life being with the Self, one will always be blissful in all given situations. Even after death, one won’t remain in the lower frequencies. One will go back to the source.
