The Road to Paradise
Chapter 35
Why paradise is a culminating experience of light, and purgatory is a culminating experience of darkness
True paradise, separated as it is from the physical terrestrial life, can thus be experienced here in its purest form only after the beings have passed through purgatory.
After this passage they can experience nothing but their fundamental ideas of an ideal existence and that of others from the same wavelength range.
Likewise they cannot see the microcosmic and macrocosmic details, things and ideas that are not on the same wavelength as their other ideal notions about paradise.
For this reason the spiritual heaven and Earth, the spiritual climate, indeed, the entire spiritual experience of Nature or of macrocosmic creations, has the same wavelength range, the same luminous effect as the being's imagined paradise or dream existence or an atmosphere that fits one hundred per cent into it.
The experience of paradise can thus be nothing but a culmination of the beings' imagined dream existence.
Because of this state the beings in purgatory can experience only that part of the macrocosmic mental construction or those details or productions of Nature that have the same dark and dismal wavelength range as their ideas of purgatory.
But fortunately the epoch of purgatory is such a concentrated and short-lived state that it can be described as but a kind of entrance or vestibule to the sphere of paradise.
And, as previously mentioned, suffering occurs in this entrance only when the human being is in conflict with or creates a short circuit with its own ideal perception of the experience of life.
Here, however, everyone is guaranteed help from guardian angels as soon as they feel unhappy and want help.
Absolutely no being whatsoever, as also previously mentioned, will thus be deprived of its experience of paradise in the spiritual world between its physical terrestrial lives.
