THE SPIRITUAL LAWS

(avery) #1

they know which subjects they faced in that incarnation, which
subjects they overcame and which they still have to overcome, as the
tests in the next incarnations depend a great deal on their conduct in
previous incarnations.


It seems to be a bit like a final judgment, doesn’t it?
More or less, but without any intention of humiliating or punishing the

been held in the lowest levels of the inferior astral, return to life without
having gone through the previous process of re-education. Even
though the spirits may well have started their process of reform, one
must bear in mind that, at the beginning the will to be steadfast in
