In my Squidoo lens How to Manifest Anything there is an article titled On Spirituality, Religion and Creation of Our World. In that article I was discussing the teachings of Jesus and how they relate to the manifestation. Now I will continue the discussion and talk about the concepts of heaven and hell and how they relate to the law of attraction energy.

Let’s consider that Jesus’ point was not that we become Christians and then get the prize, which is the Kingdom of Heaven. After all, there was no Christianity at the time, so how could he be arguing that? So instead, suppose the point Jesus was making is that we become LIKE CHRIST. The point was that we follow the light of God within us, as Jesus taught. (And coincidentally, as Gandhi, Buddha, Martin Luther King Jr., and many other great spiritual leaders also taught.) Suppose that when we become CHRIST, regardless of our religion, we have found eternal life. Because being CHRIST, in its highest sense, encompasses our light, our love and all that is good and beautiful. And GOD is the life / light / love force in the universe. So he and we are eternal.

So to continue with this thought, consider that you cannot walk away from God, because God is within. You can’t turn off your light. It is impossible, because God cannot die. But you can hide your light under a bush. And you could do this for quite a while. But no matter what you do, the wick is still there, ready to be lit. Now we are all made in the image and likeness of God, so we all, like Jesus, have the ability to return from the dead and take other forms. (See my other article mentioned above). And although it may take many lifetimes to light a particular candle, eventually they will all light.

Or put another way: Yes, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. But in GOD’s world, it is easy for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. For God, this is as easy as walking on water and feeding thousands of people with 7 loaves. So it is easy for a rich man, and for anyone else, to get to heaven because they are in God’s world and, in fact, they have God within them. Therefore, everyone will get to heaven. It’s easy, but Jesus made it clear that the craving for money and various other vices get in the way.

So, let’s talk about ‘do not judge so that you will not be judged’. Is there a GOD in the highest who sends half of his children to a burning hell for some offense, or because they did not pay him enough homage? If so, he doesn’t look like any loving father I know. And in fact, this is like a pretty archaic idea of ​​GOD, a fear-based version dating back to the days of sacrificing humans on an altar. No, this is not a divine interpretation of God, but a fear-based human one. GOD is divine and compassionate, so HE doesn’t do that. HE is above such pettiness. So who judges all the nasty actions and words that humans are prone to?

I propose that we ourselves, or the God in use, judge us. The God within us, who at some point in the resurrection feels and knows our mistakes and atrocities, is our supreme judge. This self-inflicted judgment then becomes a living hell from which our loving, peace-seeking spirit must somehow struggle to get out. Otherwise, our spirit will not find peace, or in other words, it will not find heaven, it will be in hell.

Can you imagine, for example, someone like the mass murderer Ted Bundy when he died? Imagine him suddenly coming face to face with the spirit of God within him, against which he had so completely operated. Consider that your spirit of God, hidden and asleep in life, came to the fore when you died. And consider that this inner God had full capacity to judge his actions, or rather to finally see what he did in opposition to the God who is within him. Can you imagine the torture, torment and tearing of his soul? Can you imagine the agony that no outside force needs to manage? There would be no hell, there would be no hell to equal this. For where can a mass murderer find peace?

But I believe that peace finally comes to everyone, someday when we have atoned for our past and done the right thing. Someday peace comes and heaven comes. And it is not a heaven of ignorance, like the Garden of Eden. But a heaven of knowledge and power. It is a heaven where we can say that we have traveled many sordid roads to finally find our light from God. And it is good and we are good. We, like Jesus and GOD, Buddha and Martin Luther King, are good.

Now, many philosophers today say that everything else, evil, meanness, pain and suffering, is all an illusion. It is a bad dream that we will all wake up from one day. Or like Shakespeare, an enlightened soul far beyond his age and time, once said. “It is a story told by an idiot, full of noise and fury, which means nothing.” And I tend to believe that this is true. Everything but love will pass and one day we will be left with only the light and our existence.

So, to relate all of this to the law of attraction energy, in previous writings I have said a lot about what makes us attract the good. I have given you many tools on how to get to that space. So here is one more tool. The concept that we are all tied to peace and working towards heaven, and that we will make it one day, is a positive concept. It includes all people, it gives grace to all people for imperfection, it does not put anyone above another, and it honors a good that is sometimes not seen in all people. It also scares us a lot. We all want to believe that we are above another human being, and we use the fact that we do not do this or that wrong to make the point. But that very concept of being bigger than someone else is a force to oppose. It is simply not true according to any great philosopher or religious teacher that we claim to follow. It will also attract the negative, because it is negative. But living from the point of view that we are all the same, only in various stages of enlightenment, it will bring a kind of compassion, love, and hope to all of humanity. If we can live there, we will have to attract the good. If we can live there, by definition, we will live by the “law of attraction energy.”
