Discovered your post while searching thru old ones...

It is my belief that the highest astral plane is Heaven...interestingly enough, it is the only one (or maybe one out of two) planes that Robert Bruce has never been to.

I believe that we are reincarnated several times until we are "pruned" enough (like branches on a tree) to make it into Heaven.

I've done some things that I'm almost sure anything in my body couldnt do. Similar to the card test, and telekinesis. So I think the part of me that did those things will remain after death.

I have always maintained that "hell" was a political invention.  For what is heaven if there is no hell?  Where's the motivation to toe the dogmatic line of the "church"?  And since historically only the Aristocracy and the Church were litterate, who could deny what was written?

I think of my current life as the middle-school of my "life".  I won't go into what kindergarten was, much less "potty training" []
Now using this analogy, there are always a few gifted students that go to college early.  Perhaps by working hard in this "grade" I can skip a few on my up, metaphysically speaking []

I would agree to a point- but I believe that Robert spoke of some glorious realm in which he was greeted by Reniassance-style angles in a nebula of clouds and dead loved ones; he spoke of it as a place of ambient joy of the highest magnitude- although this may or may not be what one might consider Heaven. You may be right entirely.

I believe the article is still found in the site index.

Thank you,

If the afterlife exists, I really hope that it takes place in the so-called "astral realm". An "eternal" LD/AP - now that'd be fun!
