The Truth About Reincarnation

There is no such thing as reincarnation, and all the theories and speculations of men upon that question, which conclude that a soul once incarnated can again become incarnated, are wrong, for the incarnation of a soul is only one step in its destined progress, from an invisible formless existence to a glorious angel or to a perfected spirit.

The soul, in its existence prior to becoming an indweller in the mortal body, has a consciousness of its existence and of its relationship to God and to other parts of the Great Soul, and more especially of the duplex character of its being; and by this I mean the sexual differences in the two parts of the soul, which, in the way that they are united, constitutes the one complete soul.

When the time comes for this soul to become an indweller in the mortal frame, the two parts that I speak of separate, and only one of the parts enters at the same time into a mortal and never into the same mortal; and while this separation is necessary for the individualization of each part of this one complete soul, yet the two parts never lose that interrelationship, or the binding qualities that existed before their separation, and which continue to exist thereafter, and in the great future, after the work of individualization shall be completed, will come together again and reunite in a complete one.

This separation may exist a longer or shorter time, depending upon the similar development of those similar qualities that is absolutely necessary in order that this coming together in the original one, as it were, may take place.

While this soul - before its separation has a consciousness of its existence, and when its duplex character leaves it, or rather leaves the two separated parts, and thereafter, until its re-entrance into the spirit world - does not again return to these parts. But in order to regain this consciousness, it is not necessary that both of these parts at the same time shall come again into the spirit life, for if one part becomes a spirit, free from the physical body, and the other part remains in the mortal body, that part that comes into the spirit world may receive the awakening to this consciousness, depending upon certain conditions and developments.

It often happens that both these parts will return to the spirit world and, yet, for a long time live as spirits without having a restoration of this consciousness, because of various reasons that may exist. The conditions of the development of the two parts may be so vastly different, that the realization of this consciousness may be wholly impossible; and very often it is the case that when these two individualized parts are informed that they are the soulmates of each other, they will not believe that information, and live on in utter indifference to the fact.

But, ultimately, the consciousness of their relationship will come to them, because their development, no matter whether intellectual or spiritual, will tend towards the awakening of this consciousness, which is always present with them, although dormant.

Now, as to what this soul is in its constituent parts or shape or form, prior to its separation for the purpose of becoming an inhabitant of the mortal body, we spirits are not informed and do not know. We are often present at the conception, and also the birth of a child, and realize that a soul has become enveloped in the flesh, but we cannot see that soul as it enters into that home of mortal environment, because as to us it is invisible and has no form; but after its lodgment in the human body we can perceive it and realize its existence, for then it assumes a form, and that form varies in different incarnations, or in the incarnations in different humans.

We have never seen the Soul of God, although we know that there is this Great Oversoul and, hence, we cannot see the soul of any image of the Great Soul until it becomes individualized.

I know that men have often wondered and asked the question as to the preexistence of the soul that has been incarnated, and what qualities and attributes it had during its preexistence, and as to these particulars I wish to say, that we spirits, although we are inhabitants of God's Celestial Heavens, have little information, though we know that the soul, and I mean the complete soul in oneness, has an existence prior to its becoming individualized.

You may ask, how we know this? Well, it will be hard to explain this to you, so that you may comprehend, but this I can say, that we spirits of the higher soul development can, by our soul perceptions, understand the existence of these souls as images of the Great Soul, and the qualities of these images are such, that while we cannot sensibly see these souls or their dualities, yet we are conscious of their existence. To use an illustration, that is not altogether appropriate, you understand that the wind blows, yet you cannot see it.

And we further understand, and such is the result of our observations, that when the soul, and keep in mind that I mean the two parts when I say soul, once becomes incarnated and assumes an individualized form, it never thereafter loses that individuality and, hence, never again returns to its condition of preexistence, and can never again become reincarnated in the existence of any human being.

A soul in this progress never retraces its steps - it is always progress, though sometimes stagnation takes place - but continues as an individualized spirit until it reaches its goal in fulfillment of the Father's plan for the perfecting of His universe.

This is a subject that is difficult of treatment for several reasons, among which is the fact that we spirits, no matter how high our attainments, do not have the information in order to give a full and complete description of the soul and its qualities prior to its incarnation, and you mortals are not capable of comprehending the full truth as we may try to convey it to you.

I have made this effort to give you some faint idea of the soul, as you are in good condition tonight to receive my ideas, but I realize how inadequate my attempt has proved to be. But from it, you can understand that the soul has an existence prior to its finding its home in the physical body, that it is duplex and has a consciousness of the relationship of its two parts, that after it has received the experience of the mortal life and received an individuality, it returns to the spirit world, and that at some time that consciousness will come to it again, and the two parts will become one, unless in the development of these separate parts have arisen barriers, that may prevent their reuniting. And further, that this soul will never again retrace the steps of its progression, and become reincarnated.

Soulmate Love Never Dies

I am here, William T. Stephenson.

I was an Englishman and lived in Liverpool and died in 1876. What I want to say:

Can a man live and love and then die and go into nothingness?

And I can answer: No, for love never dies.

It is the one eternal and never-ending quality of the soul. The love of a man for a woman is so great that only the love of God for man excels it. I mean the real soulmate love.

I am a spirit who lived on earth and loved a woman of earth, and when I died my love did not die, but continued and is with me now growing and increasing all the time.

She loved me, too, but in her lonesomeness, she married another and is now on earth the wife of another, but her soul love is mine and, strange as it may seem to you, I am not jealous or dissatisfied with her condition, because I, as a spirit loving her only with a soul love and knowing that I have her soul love in return, do not want her body or the affections which are so firm, the merely natural love or rather the attractions which one physical or even mental existence may have for another.

I am only waiting and loving and hoping that the time will not be long when she will be with me. So you see love cannot die and happiness which comes with that love can never die.

I am in the Second Sphere and am enjoying my existence. You must pardon me for intruding, but I only wanted to let you know that love can never die.

So goodnight. William T. Stephenson

William Stephenson, a Former Englishmen, Reveals the Story About His Soulmate

The Truth About Adam and Eve

Adam and Eve, our first parents, were the very first soulmates.

Their real names are Aman and Amon.

God created their souls in the Heavens before He created their physical bodies, and they were born on earth at the exact same time, and were perfect, wonderful and beautiful.

They were the highest creation in all of God’s universe, and no other human beings ever existed before them.

They were spiritual beings and possessed many great spiritual gifts, and lived in a Paradise called the Garden of Eden, which God had created for them.

They were very happy in their conjugal love and had no troubles or worries of any kind, and never had anything that made them afraid, or drew them apart from each other, or from God.

They believed themselves to be all powerful and all wise and decided they did not need to be obedient to God. And they did not seek and pray for God’s Divine Love in order to become immortal and Divine, as God required of them.

They disobeyed God because they made themselves believe they could be as Great as God, and if they only exerted their powers, they would obtain the same immortality, and power, and wisdom that God has.

In their vanity, they tried to appear as Gods and tried to make it a reality.

But this exercise of their free will became their eventual undoing and they fell from grace. And with this fall came the condition of evil and sin on earth.

God’s laws of creation and the workings of His will exerted themselves and Adam and Eve then sadly discovered they were no longer spiritual beings but were now mere mortal creatures, subject to the limitations of human beings.

Their spiritual powers disappeared, and they suffered greatly for their first sin of disobedience.

After their fall, no longer could they partake of spiritual food. They had to work in the fields tilling the soil so they could satisfy their natural appetites.

Many thousands of years passed until God restored the great gift of immortality and divinity with the birth of Jesus, and he made it known to humanity.

Our first parents then followed his teachings and sought the New Birth and received God’s Divine Love in their souls.

Finally, they became God’s true children.

Adam and Eve, our Heavenly Father’s first Soulmates, now live in another Paradise called the Celestial Heavens, where Divine Love, harmony and happiness reign supreme.

A Divine Angel Helps Her Soulmate Get Out of Darkness

I am here, Caligula,

I was the Roman Emperor and the murderer of the Christians, and have since that time, and for my sins, suffered all the horrors of a Hell which I can't describe.

Suffice it to say that the Hell of the Bible, or of those who interpret the Bible, is not equal in its torments and horrors to the Hell that I passed through. I tell you this that you may know that every man will have to pay the penalties for the evil deeds he does when on earth, and as my deeds were so extremely evil my penalties were correspondingly great.

But, thank God, I have paid my penalties and am now enjoying the happiness of the Christian Heaven, for I am now a follower of that Jesus, whose followers I persecuted.

Strange as it may seem to you, the cause of my conversion to Christianity was one of the very Christians whom I murdered. She was a beautiful spirit when I first saw her in the spirit world, and when she came to me and told me of the great love of the Father, and the kindness and humility of the Master, I was then in much darkness, though I had suffered for many long years and my thoughts were commencing to turn to things that ultimately helped me to get out of my darkness and find relief from my sufferings.

But this Christian spirit came to me with such love and forgiveness in her speech, that I was greatly affected by what she said and by her appearance, and I listened to her as she told me of the wonderful love of the Father and the great desire of the Master that I should seek for that love and the happiness which it brings to spirits who obtain it.

She had many interviews with me, and at last, she told me that her happiness depended, to some extent, on my getting this Divine Love in my soul, and progressing with her to the sphere of light and love. She said that I was her soulmate and that my love was necessary for her happiness, and that I could not give her that Love until I had become the possessor of the Divine Love to some extent. So you can imagine what an effect this declaration had on me.

I saw that she was beautiful and pure and loving, and that I was not a fit soulmate for her, and that I must try to make myself a suited soulmate in order that I could be with her. And, in addition, when she told me of her love for me, and that we were necessary to each other's happiness, I had a most wonderful longing to be with her and enjoy her love, and the desire soon took possession of me, that I commenced to inquire the way by which I might get this great love, or start to get it, and she told me then of the love of the Master, and how he could teach me the way and what power he had to help spirits like myself to get out of the darkness and torture into light and happiness.

And so I continued in my longings and desires, until at last, my spirit seemed to have a power to rise out of the darkness and to meet other spirits who were not dark and forbidding as I was.

She often came to me and taught me to pray, and I did pray and ask forgiveness and for just a little of that Divine Love of which she had told me.

At last as I was praying and hoping for this Love and for deliverance, the Master came to me, and such a wonderful loving spirit he was, the most beautiful and loving and yet the most humble that I had ever seen or ever have seen, and he commenced to tell me of this wonderful love of the Father, and how it was working for me to fill my soul and make a child of God, and at-one with Him, and he told me that the only things necessary were for me to pray to the Father and have faith and in all earnestness repent of my great sins. That if I did so, the Love would come to me, and as it came into my soul all the sins and recollections of my sins would leave me so that I would be able to progress to a higher sphere where light and love were.

I could not resist his influence, and I did not want to for my soulmate was with me in her love, with pleading eyes and anxious looks, and I commenced to have this faith, and to pray with all the earnestness of my soul and, at last, light came to me and love came flowing into my soul and what a happy spirit I became, and thanked God for his mercy. My soulmate rejoiced with me and we were so happy in our loves and in the great love of the Father.

From thence, I have been progressing ever since, until now I am in the Celestial Spheres, where love is the ruling principle and only those who possess this Divine Love can live, and where Jesus is our Prince and elder brother.

Caligula, the Emperor, is now a humble follower of the despised Nazarene and happy in his humility and in his following of such a loving saviour.

My soulmate is with me, and whenever I look upon her and think that I was the cause of her sufferings and death upon earth, my whole soul goes out to her in great streams of love and she knows it, and that is a part of my great repentance.

So you see, that even though a man may be the vilest of sinners on earth, yet the Father's Mercy is so great that His love is never turned away, or is His mercy ever withheld.

I tell you that Love - the Father's Love - is the greatest thing in all the universe, and like unto it is the pure, holy love of the soulmate who has in her soul the great Love of the Father.

I must not write more tonight, but as I was passing I saw the brilliant light that is with you and I embraced the opportunity to write.

My friend, you must also thank God for his goodness to you, for I have seen your soulmate and she is a most beautiful spirit.

So with the love of a brother in Christ, I am your friend, Caligula the Roman Emperor that was, and the Christian that is.

A Description of the Beautiful Features of a Spirit

I am here, Mother,

I am the mother of your friend, and want to tell him how glad I am that I can be with him and make known to him my presence and the fact that though his mother is a spirit, yet she can be with him and feel for him all the love which she had for her boy while on earth. He must not doubt that his mother is here, for she is, and has been with him many times when you were writing and has sent him some tokens of her love through his soulmate, Mary.

Why, Leslie, she, I mean your Mary, was a little English girl, and when on earth did not live many miles from your home and, if it had been intended, you two could easily have met when you were very young. But, of course, you might not have known of the fact that you were soulmates.

I want to tell you now that Mary is a real, existing spirit, who was once a little English girl, and is all beauty and goodness, and is waiting here for you to come to her and when you do you will not find some shadowy unsubstantial thing of air, but a real live, beautiful spirit with form and features perfect and well-defined and full of animation and pink roses on her cheeks, and hair all dark and glossy, and blue eyes, and a mouth like cupids, and teeth, as you would say, like ivory.

She is not a very demure little girl either but is full of life and love and happiness.

I tell you all this that you may form some idea of her, and be able to see her, to some extent, in your mind's eyes as you mortals say. And more than all, she is so pure and good and is loved by every spirit with whom she comes in contact.

I will add that my prayers for you go out to the Father, and my faith that He will look after and preserve you for the better things not only of the spirit life, but of the earth life, is without a bit of doubting.

I must not write more tonight, but in concluding, I must say that you have with you all the love and blessings of a mother who loved you so much on earth. So think of me sometimes.

Your own dear and loving mother, Priscilla Stone

First formal message from the mother of Dr. Leslie R. Stone

A Spark of Soulmate Love Will Never Cease to Exist

I am here, Mary Kennedy,

I wish to write a few lines as I am so anxious to once more come into conscious communion with my soulmate.

I heard you read the letters from Helen in reference to your dream, and I want to tell my dear one that what she said as to the soulmate love between you and her applies equally to that love which is existing between Leslie and myself. I am so happy that he understands this, for such knowledge is one that must create a happiness on his part that so very few of the human race understand or have the privilege of enjoying.

Yes, our love is one that can never be taken from us and, in all the great eternity, it can never change, except to increase in intensity and beauty.

Oh, I am so happy when I think that I have a soulmate on earth who knows that he has a soulmate in the spirit world, and that he is trying to develop his soul so that when he comes to me our separation will not continue very long.

I am praying all the time that the great love of the Father may fill his soul so that it may become more and more in unison with mine and he realize, even while on earth, that it is possible to approach closer and closer to my condition of development. When he believes this, as I know he does, he is not dreaming but is believing an actual truth that nothing in all God's universe can change, and only he, himself, can postpone its fulfillment.

Isn't it all wonderful that our Father should have made such provisions for poor, little, insignificant mortals, when all around are the wonderful manifestations of His power and greatness. But while we are small and many, yet to the Father, our happiness is the greatest care that there is in all His creation.

The earth and the stars and suns may pass away and cease to exist, but that one little spark of soulmate love will never cease to exist, no not through all eternity and we, who have this love, when joined in unity will live and know that as to it the decree of the Father is that it shall never die, but in all the long ages grow brighter and deeper and more like the love of the Father.

I am happier tonight than I can tell you of, and my love for Leslie is greater than ever before, and growing all the time, and with this knowledge there comes to me the consciousness that his love is becoming mine to a greater degree than ever.

Then why shouldn't we, as a mere personal matter, thank and praise the Father for His goodness and loving provisions, which we have been so specially privileged in receiving, and not only receiving, but knowingly.

I feel tonight that I could write him many pages on this subject, but I must not consume too much of your time. So let me say just one word more. Whether he is sleeping or awake, I am with him in my love and enjoying every thought that he sends to me and only crave that his thoughts of me become more frequent and his desire to have me with him increase and never cease.

This may seem selfish, but when you consider that there is none other who can give me this love, and none other who has the love which is a part of me, and which only, outside the Father's love, can make me so supremely happy, you will not think me selfish.

Well, I must stop for tonight. But I will be with him and go home with him and remain with him until he goes to sleep and, sometime in the near future, I hope that I may have him come to me again in his spirit as he did before, when we enjoyed an hour of such great happiness and joy.

Thanking you and with my love to him, I will say goodnight,

Mary

Mary Kennedy writes that earth, stars and suns may pass away, but a spark of soulmate love will never cease to exist.

A Spirit's Message About the Love-Making Scene of Soulmates

I am here, your Helen

Well sweetheart, we had quite a love-making scene between Mary and the Doctor, and she was so happy that she could write to him that her whole soul was filled with emotion and many tears fell on her letter, though you could not see them.

What a beautiful loving spirit she is, and how she loves the Doctor. I enjoyed the scene more than I can tell you, and when she finished her writings, she came and threw her arms around my neck and cried until I thought that she could have no tears left, but they were tears of joy.

Oh, how dear she is to me, for she seems to have a love that appeals to my love for you, and when she tells me of her great love for the Doctor, I join with her in her tears, and we both thank God that he has given us such soulmates and the great love that we have for them.

I have been with you all day trying to comfort you and help you forget the troubles of your earthly affairs and to some extent I succeeded.

You must love me more and think of me more often, for if you do you will draw me so close to you, that you will feel my love in all its power, and my presence will appear so real to you.

I heard what you said to the Doctor about giving Mary a real lip kiss, and you were right, for while he may not be able to feel her kisses, she can his, and it will make her so happy.

Notwithstanding our spirit love, we have that about us that causes us to enjoy what was a part of our earth nature.

A kiss is just as sweet. Yes, more so than when we were mortals. And you must not think that we are such ethereal, nebulous beings that we cannot enjoy a kiss, or an embrace, for we enjoy both. And as you know, many times have I hugged you until you hollered. So tell the Doctor that he can kiss his Mary just as often as he might were she in the flesh.

I must stop now. So, sweetheart, say good night.

Your own true and loving, Helen

A Spirit Expresses Great Love For Her Dear Soulmate

I am here, Mary Kennedy,

I am so glad for the opportunity to write to my dear soulmate as it has been a long time since I wrote to him and told him of my love and happiness.

He is more dear to me than ever and, while he cannot hear me tell him so, yet every day I am with him and try to breathe into his ear the expressions of the great love which I have for him. I wish that he had the power to write as you have for if he had I believe that I would monopolize all his time in telling him how much I love him and how I long for the time to come when I can have him all to myself.

He, I know, cannot realize what a love like mine is but, thank God, in the not to distant future, I will be able to enfold him in my arms and tell him all the feelings and warmth of my soul how much I love him and how dear he is to me.

I am with him nearly all the time trying to cheer him and make him feel that he is not alone in his struggles in life and that my love for him is so great and with and in him all the time.

When he prays, I pray with him. And when he is happy, I am happy, too.

But when he is unhappy, I am not unhappy but sympathize with him and exert myself to make him realize the great love that I have for him and that I am near him.

His sorrows are only temporary and my love is eternal and my love means his happiness as well as mine. So tell him to believe with all his heart that his Mary is with him and will be with him in all his times of sorrow and joy and will try to interpenetrate his soul with her own burning and pure love which is all his and which can never be given to another.

I read his letters, which he writes at night, and for every expression of love which they contain, I have a responsive answer only more intense and more longing. Tell him not to stop writing to me for I can see what he writes and tell him, also, that he must believe that my answers are all that he would have them to be and more, too.

I must not trespass longer on your indulgence but only wish to say that I love my dear Leslie with all my heart and soul and will so love him until time and eternity shall be no more.

Oh, how I wish that I could have him see me face to face and hear my voice telling him of my great love and that he is mine and I am his.

Mary Kennedy

Mary Kennedy writes a message of love to her dear soulmate, Dr. Leslie Stone

Divinity is of God Alone - Only He Can Bestow It on Us

I am now going to tell you of my progress in this love and happiness. When I last wrote you, I told you that I had commenced to have faith in the Father and had received some portion of His Love. Well, since then I have been praying and asking God to give me more faith and love and, as I prayed, my faith increased and, as my faith increased, more of this love came into my soul and with it an increased happiness.

So I would not stop striving until I realized that my soul was commencing to get such an inflow of this Love that it seemed that all things which tended to retard this influx were leaving me and only love and goodness were taking possession of me.

I am now very far advanced over what I was when you first commenced to talk to me of this love and I shall, through all eternity, remember and thank you for what you did for me. I was also so fortunate to have your mother and wife with me very much trying to show me the way to this truth of the New Birth and, then when your grandmother came to me, it seemed as if I could not resist the influences to seek and try to pursue.

So really when I had received enough of the spiritual awakening to realize who Jesus was, I gave him my close attention and as he continued to show me the way to the Father, I commenced to grasp the truth and believe that my salvation depended on my receiving this great love and becoming a finer and better man.

I tell you that Jesus is the most wonderful of spirits that I have seen or heard about. He is so filled with love and goodness that there seems no doubt in my mind that he is the son of the Father in the spiritual sense of the term. I mean that he is so much nearer the Father and in so much and many of his attributes that he is the only son in the sense of being at-one with the Father.

We are all sons of the Father, but there is such a difference in our spiritual conditions that the contrast between Jesus and us is so great that we can readily believe that he is the one true son and that his great love and knowledge of the qualities of the Father makes him the only begotten in a different way physically from other men, no immaculate conception or birth from the womb of a virgin. I do not believe this dogma and the Master says that it is not true for he was truly, so far as his physical being is concerned, the son of a man and woman as you or I am.

Now I am also convinced that mankind cannot be saved from their sins unless they follow the way showed them by the Master. No man can save himself and I wish strongly to emphasize the fact that man is dependent upon God for his salvation from the sins and errors of the material man. I do not mean that men have not a work to do themselves for they have.

God is willing to save them if they ask it and acknowledge that with His help, they can be saved, but unless they do ask and believe He will not interfere with these conditions. So you see, I am not only a believer in God and Jesus but also in the doctrine that men cannot save themselves.

I thought that man was sufficient unto himself when I was on earth, but now I know that he is not. Man may be comparatively happy and free from what is called sin, that is a visitation of God's laws, but that happiness is not the same nor is man's condition the same as when he gets this Divine Love from the Father.

I will not speak longer on this subject tonight but simply say that when on earth I thought that by my own exertions I might possibly become divine, yet even as a spirit I know that man is not divine and cannot become so in all eternity unless he receives this Divine Essence which comes to him in the New Birth.

Divinity is of God alone and only He can bestow it on man. Man not having this divinity cannot create it by his own efforts. So believe what I say and strive to get it, and you then succeed and become as the redeemed in the Celestial Heavens.

I must stop now for you are tired and so am I. Well, I will tell you of those things the next time I write.

So with all my love and blessing,

I am your old partner, A. G. Riddle

Riddle has progressed to a new sphere and is now seeking more help to further his spiritual progress.

A Spirit is Helped in His Spiritual Progress by the Love of His Soulmate - Shares His Knowledge of Laws of the Spirit World

I am now so very happy in my new sphere that I cannot explain to you what that happiness means. I cannot express myself in language sufficiently strong and descriptive that you may comprehend.

But this I will say, that my happiness now transcends all conception of what happiness might be when, as a mortal, I sometimes thought of the afterlife and the happiness which might be in store for me when I passed over.

I am in the Third Sphere, but I am not contented to remain there for your mother has told me on many occasions of the far greater happiness existing in the higher spheres. I am now striving and praying for this greater happiness, and I will never be contented until I get it.

I am also happy because I have my soulmate with me so very often and her love is so great and pure that it leads me on to higher things and enables me to seek with so much earnestness the great love of the Father, which I now believe is working for me if I only will strive to obtain it and have the faith which all who have obtained to a very large degree of this love tell me of.

Your wife is in a much higher sphere and is so very beautiful and so exceedingly happy that I know that where she lives such happiness must exist.

Your grandmother is so wonderfully beautiful and filled with the love, that her very presence inspires me to believe and seek for the happiness of these higher spheres.

Well, as you want me to tell you of some of the laws of the spirit world, I will say that the one great law is that God is Love and that He is willing to bestow that love on anyone - spirit or mortal - who asks Him for it.

I am not only very happy, but I find that my mind is expanding to a great extent by reason of the love that I possess. No man or spirit can possibly be filled with this love and not have the wisdom that necessarily comes with the love.

I am not so much interested in purely mental phenomena as I was before I received this love and believed in a Father of Love and Truth, but I am nevertheless able to understand many things to a far greater degree than I could when I had merely the mental pursuits in mind.

I am not yet fully conversant with the laws of communication as I told you I would learn and instruct you in, but I know enough to be able to say that every spirit is trying to communicate with their friends on earth and why they are not able to is because the mortals are not in that condition of psychical rapport that will enable them to receive the communications of the spirits.

I do not yet know why one mortal is susceptible to these influences in such a way as to be readily understood and another mortal is not. Some spirits say that this law controlling this matter is not even understood by spirits who have been here for a great many years and who have given considerable study to the subject. But this I do know, that when the rapport exists, the communications become stronger with the exercise of the powers.

You have this power to a very large degree and, if you will continue to try to exercise it, you will find that manifestations of several kinds will be disclosed.

Your writing powers are very great and will grow as you continue to write but beside this phase you have the potential ability to have other manifestations such as independent voices and slate writing.

This latter I think will soon come to you and when it does you will get messages that will have their great value to you in convincing you that what you write in this method is written by the control of the thoughts of your friends who profess to write.

You will also get the voices very soon as I think, and when you do you will be able to converse with us in your room at night when you are alone. But I don't know of any manifestation as satisfactory to both spirit and mortal as the writing such as you are now doing, for we have the opportunity for such a greater extent of communicating and interchanging of thought.

I am perfectly delighted at the possibility given me of writing you in this way. So you must believe that I am writing to you and that all the others of your band are doing the same thing.

Your wife has more power in this regard than any of us and she does not hesitate to write you whenever you call her. She is a wonderful spirit in her grasp of spirit things and in her love for the Father. So you must not let any doubt come into your mind when she writes to you and tells you of so many wonderful things and of her love for you. She seems to love you with a love that has no limit or possibility of growing less.

Dancing With God

When I meditated on the word Guidance, I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like dancing.

When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky. When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back or by pressing Lightly in one direction or another.

It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and skill from the other.

My eyes drew back to the word Guidance. When I saw "G": I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i." "God", "u" and "i" dance."

God, you, and I dance.

As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about my life. Once again, I became willing to let God lead.

I Hope You Dance!

Soul Transformation with Divine Love

Our soul, in the condition in which we possess it before the entrance of the Divine Love, is not in accord with the Love of God, nor is it a part of the great Oversoul.

It is only a special creation made in the image of the Heavenly Father having in it the natural love which was conferred upon us at the time of our creation and not having in it any part of the essence of the Father, or any quality that makes it of the Divine nature of the Father, or necessarily immortal.

But when the Divine Love enters into it, and it becomes permeated as it were with the Divine Essence, then it takes on the Divine nature of the Father and to the extent that it receives and possesses this Love, it becomes at-one with God and ceases to be a mere image and becomes transformed into the substance.

Our soul in this condition where Divine Love is present is altogether a different entity from our soul in the condition in which it was created and is no longer subject to the dominion of either the mind or of the animal appetites and desires and, hence, the spirit possessing such a soul is, in essence, a part of the Father, or as Jesus said, is in the Father and the Father in it.

Now, do not understand that such a soul is the soul that man originally possessed with increased development of purity and goodness or freedom from sin, because such is not the case. Your soul, by such transformation, becomes a new thing and never again can it relapse into the soul of our origin.

Because of the qualities that it then possesses, it becomes immortal, and such immortal nature can never be taken from it. It is now a thing of love and purity, and consciousness of its true condition is always with the spirit that has such a soul.

This transformation is gradual, and we must not think that by the mere act of conversion from our state of death we at once become possessed of the nature of the Divine, for such is not the fact.

The transformation comes according to the susceptibility of our soul to receive God’s Divine Love. But when once the inflowing of the Love commences, it continues eternally.

Although there may be times of stagnation and apparent loss of this Divine Essence, yet always is the transformation taking place and, at certain stages in its progress, the possession of this Divine Love will be so great that our original soul, or its original qualities, will entirely disappear and leave only the new qualities which the Divine Love has implanted in it. The leaven when once deposited never ceases to work until the whole shall become leavened.

This condition of transformation may be obtained by all of us if we will only seek for it in the proper way - earnest prayer to our Heavenly Father - and with faith.

The Condition of the soul after the Divine Love flows in to it.

A Spirit Consoles Her Lonely Soulmate

I am here, Helen:

You feel so lonely today, but remember that I am with you and love you with all my heart and soul and will help you to be happier.

The pictures are not as good as I thought they would be when taken, but now it makes no difference for they are merely images of the physical appearance and now I am a spirit with all the beauty that God's Love in my soul gives me. So think of me as your spirit wife, rather than as your mortal wife who has left you. Be only true to me in your thoughts and love and you will not be unhappy because of the past.

I am now a spirit that has so much of God's Love in my soul that I have almost forgotten the unhappiness of my later life on earth, and you are the one thing that binds me to earth.

Of course, my children also keep me with them and will as long as they live, but they are not to me as you are. You are my soulmate as I have told you, so that they will not need me as you will in the great future of eternity.

When you are so very lonely, think that I am with you and am loving you and trying to make you happy and will not leave you alone for a moment. My love is so great that I can scarcely keep from trying to take you in my arms and bring you over now, but as you know that would not be in accordance with the plans of the Master, and so you and I must both wait until you have accomplished your work.

But after all, it will not seem very long, for you will have me with you all the time and I will realize that I am with you, dear, that our love is burning and only needs our trust and to try to enable us to enjoy it both further.

So do not feel downhearted or lonely, my own dear soulmate, for you are mine and I am yours and nothing can separate us either in earth or in Heaven.

Yes I know, we were all there and saw how you prayed to the Father and how your soul was filled with His Love. He was very near you and we were so happy in the knowledge that He was. He is your God as well as ours and when you pray as you did, you will always receive the Love and Blessings of the Father.

You are a very much favored man in having the Love of the Father so much in your soul and when I think that you will some day be with me, and that we will both have this Great Love to such an intense degree, I feel that our happiness will be beyond compare.

So you need not worry about the future, for I know that when you come over you will find that your soul possesses so much of this Love that no question of doubt or unbelief in the efficacy of this love will arise in your soul.

You will be with me, and we will progress together to the higher spheres where they tell me happiness is supreme. So be content to do your work and love God and me until the great day of rejoicing comes when you will meet me at the portals of the spirit world and feel my arms about you and my love and kisses on your lips and face. You are my own dear Ned.

Yes he [Jesus] was, and you felt his influence for he loved you very much and said that you are his own true disciple and brother and that your soul shall become filled with this great love before many days. He seems to love you so very much that we all wonder at it, not that we don't want him to love you, but this we do not understand why he should love you so much more than he seems to love the rest of us.

I do not mean that he does not love us, for he does, but your case seems so unusual and we ask him why it is, and he says because he has selected you for his work and that you must have his love to its greatest in order that you may do as he desires. So you see few mortals have ever received that love in such intensity as you have. And you should nourish it and return to him all the love that you are capable of giving to him.

Yes, I saw what was in your mind and you received much happiness from the trances. But we will not be able to have such an experience. The more that you thought might come will not come, because the voice of the angels cannot be heard as you would like to hear them. And Jesus will not manifest himself in that way. He will never appear to mortals in the flesh form again, but you will see him some time in your soul’s eyes, when you get more of this love in your heart and I will try to show myself in the way that filled your dreams, I mean your wake dreams.

So will Rose and Mary and we will succeed. But you are not going to receive all these manifestations at one time. I want you to first have the independent voices and later we will try materialization and later the slate writings, this I think is the plan that will more likely succeed.

So sweetheart we’ll stop for the time being. Good bye with all my love.

I am your own true, Helen

Helen writes that as his soulmate, her love for him is greater than for her children, who will not need her in the great future of eternity.

Law of Compensation is Removed by Divine Love

I am here, your own true Helen

You didn’t think I could change the announcement of my coming, but you must know that I can do anything to please you, my dear Ned.

Yes, you have, and I have been so very happy. Well, sweetheart, I must tell you that I am very happy and am progressing very rapidly. I don’t expect to remain in this sphere very much longer, for my love and faith are so great that I feel that I must get closer to God’s Fountainhead in the Celestial Spheres. Doesn’t it seem like some fairy dream? But it is all true, and I am so happy.

I will soon be with you in a long letter, telling you of this Great Love, and how much I love God and you.

You are progressing, too. You may not realize it, but it is true. And if you should come over now, you would be surprised to find yourself in a high sphere. I know how you feel, but you must believe that I can see your spiritual condition better than you can.

When you get this Great Love in your heart in sufficient abundance - and you have much of It now - your sins will be blotted out. This is the Law of Regeneration.

Otherwise, the man who continues without this Love and the man who receives It would be in the same condition, and the New Birth would mean nothing. So do not think that this Great Love is not sufficient to cleanse the soul from the results of the sins of earth life. Best of all, it cleanses while you are a mortal.

I know that the Spiritualists quote and proclaim the Law of Recompense, or Compensation, but there is a higher law that nullifies that law. And when Love - this Divine Love - comes into the soul of a mortal, the Law of Compensation is removed from the scope of its working for Love is the fulfilling of the law.

So do not let that stumbling block make you believe that this Great Love is not sufficient to remove all sin and error and to purify your soul so that you may become fitted to live in the Kingdom of the Father and become one with Him.

No, the Love is for the vilest sinner and no man, by a mere act of restoration, can fit himself for the inflowing of this Divine Love. It is waiting for the sinner as well as for the saint. And even though your sins be as scarlet, they will be made white as wool. I mean that you will not have to wait to make recompense to mortals before this Great Love can do the cleansing work. Else, what is the use of having this Great Love provided for man? If he shall first make himself pure, what is the necessity for the work of the Holy Spirit?

Only pray for this Love and have faith, and you will get It. God is the Judge of what a man shall do to render justice and restitution. And when He says that this Divine Love, with all Its cleansing power, is for the sinner who seeks for It by true faith, who has the right to say that the sinner must first do what man may think is justice between himself and his fellowman?

I know whereof I speak for the experiences of many spirits who have been redeemed by this Love show that they were sinners, and had not “paid the last farthing” when they received this Love. God is the Judge, not mortals or spirits.

So, my dear Ned, do not let the idea that you must render to every man that which you think he may be entitled to keep you from believing in the Mercy and Love of the Father.

Oh, how I wish I could be with you a little while in my bodily form and tell you face to face what this Great Love means to you and to me, and to all of us.

So sweetheart, believe me when I say that, even though you may be a great sinner, yet the Father’s Love is sufficient to remove all those sins just as soon as you can receive It. Such is the law of this Great Love.

Faith and prayer can open the very heart of the Celestial Spheres, and

Love will flow down into your soul
As the avalanche of snow,
That feels the warmth of the sun’s bright rays
Rushes from its mountain heights,
When winter leaves with its chilling gloom
And blasting breath for other climes.

Love is not only warmth, but It is the very burnings of the soul’s great storehouse of God’s Divine Essence.

I am not only the possessor of this Love to a large degree, but I also realize that, as I advance to higher spheres, there is a greater abundance awaiting to fill my soul with Its great, undying fires of never ending burnings - but burnings so great and free from everything that makes for unhappiness and discontent.

So, my own dear and precious Ned, love me as I love you, and we both will be so very happy that Heaven will be with us, and in us, even while we are writing in the earth surroundings.

Your own Helen

Conditions of Spirits – Why Some Spirits Are in the Lowest Sphere

The conditions of all spirits is determined by their goodness and love. No distinction on account of what a spirit might have been on earth is known here. The poorest working man is as of great importance as the most famous man according to his earthly standing. In fact, more of the poor and humble of earth are in the higher spheres than are those who were wealthy and held high positions.

This is so, not because there were more of the poor, but because their spiritual conditions were better, and they are more susceptible to the influences of the good spirits, who are doing the Father's work. So you see high standing on earth is not a thing which determines the condition of the spirit here.

I know a number of spirits who, when on earth, were prominent in society and wealthy, but who are now in the lowest sphere, simply because they did not know anything of God's Love and wholly failed to observe His laws and truths while on earth.

You will be surprised at the number of friends of yours, who were prominent on earth, and who are not as happy as they were while on earth. Their desires are very much the same as on earth and, yet, they have no means of gratifying them and, consequently, they are very unhappy.

I think that the sin of suicide is the worst, and then the murderer, the drunkard and the prostitute. The last is a person who seems very difficult to understand things spiritual because he or she does not realize the enormity of this sin so much as the suicide or murderer. A prostitute has ruined many and, when she at last realizes that fact, her sufferings are very great.

They are in very low planes - lower than the earth planes, and they are generally trying to pursue the occupation that they had on earth and imagine that they do. I say imagine, because I have no better word to express it. But they really believe that there is some kind of happiness that comes to them from the belief that they have - that they can still engage in such things.

You would be surprised to see the great number of men and women who occupy this plane - some of them who on earth were not considered such. But prostitution is not a thing of act altogether but of desire or lust. A man may look on a women and lust after her and, as Jesus said, he already commits adultery in heart and, so many mortals committed adultery in that way and the sin arising therefrom follows them here and can only be gotten rid of by prayer and the consequent forgiveness and love of God in their hearts.

A man or women may get rid of this sin while on earth if he repents and prays to God to let His Love come into his soul. When this Love takes possession of a man's soul all sin is cast out and is no more remembered against him. This is what is meant by washing away sin. Neither the blood of Jesus nor his vicarious atonement, as it is called, ever washes away sin. The only effective thing is the Love of God in the heart.

So you see, men may believe all that they possibly can that the blood and sufferings of Jesus, and his death on the cross saves them from sin and its consequence and, yet, if they are not possessed of this Love, these sins will remain and they are not saved.

I have written more than I intended on this subject, but as you are so much interested, I thought it best to tell you what I have learned from the Master himself.

Jesus has this knowledge to a greater extent than any other spirit and, consequently, is the greatest power in all the Heavens or earth, and those who listen to his teachings and follow them will be, when they come over and even while on earth, the strongest and happiest of all beings. So do not neglect to learn this great knowledge. You are very far in the possession of it and, when you shall have had his teachings and followed them, you will be a powerful and happy spirit when you come over.

I am told by him (Jesus) that he is forming his own kingdom in the spirit world of those who listen to and follow his teachings and get this great Love in their hearts, and their home or sphere will be entirely separate from the other spirits, and will be in the highest Heavens, where happiness the most supreme will be.

So I am trying to become one of his followers and a subject of his kingdom. He will not let sin of any kind or inharmony find a resting place in that kingdom and, hence, no man or spirit who has not been fully purified can possibly enter into it. He is now forming that kingdom and when his work is done and he leaves the earth plane and mankind to themselves, he will go into that kingdom and remain there and rule for all eternity. So strive to become worthy of becoming a subject of that kingdom.

You must stop writing now as you are tired. Well, as you are my soulmate and the only one that I will ever have or want, I must tell you that I love you with a love that can never grow old or less and that, when you come over, you will realize that your Helen is a spirit who knows how to love. But she loves you now with all her heart and soul and you must believe it.

So goodnight my own darling, Ned.

Your loving, Helen

Helen writes about her progress from the Third Sphere to the Fifth Sphere.

A Soulmate in the Fifth Sphere Explains Spiritual Powers

I am here, Helen:

I am very happy and you are a little better, and there is no need to worry about Nita as she is now very happy in her school. I will try tonight to tell you of what I am now doing in my new home and in the earth sphere, where I am most of the time helping spirits.

Well, in my home I am so very much engaged in studying the laws of communicating with you that I have hardly time for anything else. I am now quite certain that I understand how to talk to you in an independent voice and also to materialize. So you must not be astonished any time to hear my voice or see me in the form of a materialized spirit. I am also trying to help the spirits who are in a condition of blindness and doubt.

I am living with your mother in her home, but I am not as spiritual as she. We are both very happy though and have everything that a heart could wish for.

My home here is much more beautiful than that which I had in the Third Sphere, and everything is beyond what I conceived when I lived there. The house and trees and flowers and fruits are very much more beautiful and delightful. No one could be anything but happy in such a home.

We have nothing to interfere with our happiness and everyone is a delightful companion and full of love and beauty. I have met many spirits that I did not know either on earth or in the spirit world before I came to this place, both men and women.

Yes, we have rivers and lakes and fields and mountains and all the beautiful landscapes that you can imagine. I not only enjoy these things, but they are more real than those of earth.

I am sometimes engaged in painting these flowers and landscapes, and have many pictures which others painted. I find that I can paint with a more artistic touch than when on earth. I have no trouble in drawing as you know I had some in my earth pictures.

I am also studying music, and especially my vocal lessons. You will be much surprised when you hear me sing as you cannot conceive what a different voice I have. Sometimes I try to sing some of the songs that I used to sing to you, but they are not pretty in comparison to the songs we have here, either in the music or the sentiments.

The music is so beautiful that I cannot describe it to you and even the love, which helps to make the music, is of such an intensity that you could not possibly understand if I should attempt to tell it to you.

Spiritually, I am now in a sphere that enables me to know what the love of God really is and that in His love I have almost complete happiness. I have gotten rid of those things. I now love everybody and am trying my best to help every soul that I possibly can. Feelings of dislike or envy or hatred have no place in my heart, for which I thank God.

Well, as you are not so much interested in my description, I will not attempt further portrayal of the things here. Yes, I can see it in your brain - you are thinking about other things, so you see, I know. Yes, but you must think of what I write for that is necessary in order for you to write. While I can guide your hand, yet I have also to use your brain to express my thoughts. You could if you will try. That is one of the things that I want you to do, for then you can hear what I say at any time and it will not be necessary for you to write.

Yes, it is better to presume what I write for sometimes it does you good to read over what I have said and feel over again the emotions which you felt at the time of your receiving my messages.

I love you all the time and you know it, but sometimes it is beneficial to reread my expressions of love, even though you doubt that they are mine. Let me tell you that you are not to remain in this state of doubt much longer, for I will so indubitably show my presence to you that you will never again doubt that I am with you.

Then when you write you will feel that I am, indeed, writing as convincingly as if I sat beside you and you could see me. It may happen any night as you sit and write or when you are lying in bed thinking of me and wondering if I am really with you. So you must be prepared to have anything happen which will show you that I am with you. Yes, I believe that I will be able to do that when you are all alone, and so you will hear my voice when you are alone.

No, this is the most satisfactory means of communicating that I know of. You can exchange your thoughts for mine, and can write so much more than I could possibly speak. Yes, I will be able to speak for a little while at a time, but not as I write.

No spirit can gather such power as would be required to continue to talk for any length of time. Even Bright Star, who is an adept, could not carry on an extended conversation, as she says.

The power that I now have enables me to manifest myself in several ways, such as the independent voice, materialization and writing. I do not know about the slate writing, but I believe that I can do that, too. At any rate, I will try to accomplish it sometime. I don't think that I will be able to manifest on the same night in an independent voice and also materialize for each manifestation requires great power.

Yes, I can knock on the table, but that does not give any special satisfaction -- all earthbound spirits can do that. It is the lowest order of manifestation. We, of the higher spheres, do not care to do that if we can manifest in any other way, and I would rather not try it.

I mean that I am stronger physically, spiritually and mentally than White Eagle. I do not know the exact extent of my power, but the spirits with a better knowledge of these things say that my power is so very unusual that I can do most anything that I may try. Of course, they mean within reasonable limitations. I could not take a mountain and move it, or even a very heavy substance, but I could lift you and will some time just to show you how strong I am.

I mean by having more powerful mentality that I have progressed so very much in knowledge and in my will power. I am not yet a wise woman, but in a certain line I have acquired a great deal of knowledge as regards, for instance, the way in which spirits and mortals while in the flesh.

I am not any more versed in the science of what controls the heavenly bodies, or why one star differeth from another in glory, or what are God's mysteries as you may consider them. These matters are being investigated by other and older spirits. But as regards love, both of God and spirits and mortals, I have learned a great deal.

Let me tell you that of all subjects that should interest men, love is the greatest. For love is the fulfilling of all law and the man, who knows what love is, I mean the real, genuine love both for God and his fellow mortals and spirits, has that which is not equaled by knowledge of anything else in all the Universe.

Helen progresses from the Third Sphere to the Fifth Sphere.

A Spirit Progresses to Third Sphere and Has Located His Soulmate

I am here, Prof. Salyards,

Your wife told you today that I would write tonight and I will try to do the best that I can.

I am now in the Third Sphere with your wife and father, who are my very constant companions, although I am not so highly developed in spirit love as is your wife, who is one of the most beautiful spirits of my acquaintance.

I am trying to learn what is possible about the laws that govern the spirit life but, as yet, I know comparatively little of them. I am also trying to write poems of love of God and of man. So you must not be surprised if some day I shall write to you some of my productions.

I am also trying to get more of God's Love in my heart, so that I may progress to the higher spheres and find the greatest happiness possible to obtain.

My present condition is one of great happiness, but I know that there is greater, higher up, and that as your grandmother and mother have found it, I will be able to find it also, if I follow the way that they have pursued.

Yes, I have found my soulmate, thanks to your wife, and I cannot tell you how happy I am. Your wife was certainly good to me and I will never cease to thank and love her for her interest in me.

My soulmate is a very beautiful and spiritual woman, who I never knew on earth even though she lived in a part of the valley not very far from my home. Her name was Sarah Conway, as she tells me and her father was a farmer near Mt. Crawford. She is now here and says that you are a very dear man to suggest that your wife find her.

She says that she had never been instructed that she had a soulmate and that, until your wife told her, she did not know that I was the one that God intended for her. I do not understand why this is, but it seems to be so.

I have heard that there is a law of attraction as you say, but just how that law operates I am not able to say. Your wife seems to have a knowledge of this law, which I do not have and have never yet tried to learn. She is a wonderful spirit in her investigations of certain laws pertaining to the laws of spirits for one another.

How she obtained this knowledge, I am not yet informed and cannot explain just how she discovered who my soulmate is. I know though that I have found her and that she is mine forever. How, I don't know, but she did locate her and I have her now with me.

She says that your wife told your mother who my soulmate is and your mother, who is in the same sphere, told her and she came down to my home and found me and then knew that I was intended for her. She is in the Fifth Sphere where your mother lives.

Yes, I see that it is and I will include it in my catalogue of studies. You are right when you say that I must study this matter, for the happiness of so many spirits depends upon knowing their soulmates, that it is well worth studying so that I may help them in finding who is the one that God has selected for any inquiring spirit.

She has not yet, but she will as I will ask her and she is so good that I know that she will tell me. She is a very diligent student of many of the things pertaining to the love of the spirits for the humans and she had made wonderful progress in her studies of the various means of communication between them.

But she is so beautiful and so filled with God's Love that I scarcely know what to tell you of her current condition on any of these subjects. She is a wonderful spirit in her accomplishments in almost any line of investigation.

Yes, I know that it may seem impossible to you, but she is a spirit of such energy and determination that nothing seems to prevent her progressing in these things. She is also a wonderful lover of her soulmate and he should consider himself highly blessed by having the great love which she has for him.

You need not think that all soulmates have this wonderful love for they do not. Love here seems to be something like love on earth. In some, it is developed to a greater degree than in others. I am one who is very deep in my feeling of love and so my soulmate seems to be.

You are very tired and I must stop.

Your old professor and friend,
Joseph Salyards

Prof. Salyards has progressed to the Third Sphere and has located his soulmate with the help of Mrs. Padgett and knows that she is his forever.
