Atheism, Religion and Bereavement

If Atheism means that not only is there no God but that life as we know it is random, accidental  and temporary, then it is no more sensible than believing in a flat earth. Darwin saw true things, and then misinterpreted them; his modern followers have made it even worse.

The traditional idea of God as the creator of humanity is probably naive, but not entirely ridiculous. God is "All-That-Is", the source of all kinds of life; all life is not humanoid by any means. The main difficulty in discussing these issues is words and what we mean by them.

"Consciousness" is probably the best word we can use to describe the underlying source of energy that creates all things. It creates all things continuously; it has no beginning and no end. It is very much related to Thought when it is manifested in form.

We are all part of that Consciousness and there are many other dimensions in which we all exist simultaneously to the world we know now. Think of yourself as a vast consciousness that straddles universes, taking the form appropriate to each part. Here you are a physical man or woman or child; in many other dimensions you are something else.

When a loved one passes out of this system it is painful in the extreme. Yet that loved one is fully alive beyond a very thin veil. You can contact them in several ways. A genuine medium can connect you in ways that leave no doubt; you can also tune in to their energy by yourself and experience unmistakable contact.

The purpose of pain in bereavement is to develop your soul, your psyche. It deepens your understanding of life and makes you more compassionate and tolerant. There is no judgment or punishment. We are good people. There is no sinful self in spite of what religion and psychology will tell you. What we see as evil is energy gone wrong.

My chief source of knowledge comes from years of studying the Seth Material, several volumes through Jane Roberts. I recommend them. I have written my own book detailing why I believe what I believe. Some have described it as a primer, or a cheat-sheet, and it can be a good introduction to the many sources of intelligence in the mysteries of life. It is called:
"Wings of the Dawn, 
Finding God Beyond Religion and Darwinism, and Making Sense of Bereavement"

It is on Amazon and is available at:

If you prefer to delve into the real source then go for the Seth books right away, although my own book expands on just the Seth material.

Good hunting.
