Cremation....
Accelerated disintegration process....
Eer!thing proceeds to"ards delierance #ecause it has to
$ollo" the path o$ higher deelopment. When the spiritual
essence separates itsel$ $rom matter it has oercome the latter%
#ut the spiritual essence has not al"a!s matured enough that it
no longer needs an earthl! &trans$ormation' $orm and in that
case it "ill re(enter a ne" $orm) "hich also consists o$ matter.
*o"eer) "hen the soul) the spiritual essence "ithin the
human #eing) leaes the #od!) the earthl! trans$ormation has
come to an end% that is) the soul escapes its last $orm on earth
and enters) li#erated $rom all matter) a ne" and entirel! di$$erent
realm than earth.
+he #od!) the $inal earthl! $orm) is no" destined $or
disintegration again% i.e. the spiritual su#stances "hich constitute
the earthl! #od!) also hae to ta,e the path o$ higher
deelopment) since these su#stances are still at the initial stage
o$ deelopment) and $or this purpose the! "ill -oin diine "or,s
o$ creation again "hose purpose is) a$ter all) the higher
deelopment o$ the spirit.
+his can happen in arious "a!s #ut it al"a!s has to include
the possi#ilit! $or actie serice. Conse.uentl!) the su#stance has
to -oin a "or, o$ creation "here it has to per$orm some ,ind o$
tas, and sere #! $ul$illing this tas,) since the substance can
only develop through service.
/$ the opportunit! to sere is ta,en a"a!) the path o$ higher
deelopment is interrupted) "hich is an e0tremel! agonising
condition $or the spiritual su#stance. +he time o$ spiritual
su$$ering can seemingl! #e shortened #ut the spirit su#stance "ill
not than, the human #eing "ho interenes in its progress o$
deelopment and preents its serice.
As soon as the natural decomposition o$ a human #od! is
preented #! accelerating its process o$ disintegration #!
cremation or #! chemical means) the path o$ the spirit is $ar
more pain$ul and has to #e so) #ecause this process opposes
diine order) it opposes the purpose "hich God has gien eer!
"or, o$ creation.
/t is an unauthorised action #! people "hich does not concur
"ith God1s "ill. The human body should be returned to the
earth as is its purpose.... From dust !ou hae #een ta,en) to
dust !ou shall return.... providing God's intervention does
not determine otherwise #! ending a human li$e in other "a!s
than the human #eing1s natural ph!sical death.
When the soul has $reed itsel$ $rom the #od!.... i.e. $rom the
spiritual su#stance "hich $orms the #od!.... the #od!1s -o# to
sere the soul is $ul$illed. But until it has completel! disintegrated
it still has other opportunities to #e o$ serice) een i$ the human
#eing $inds this di$$icult to understand) "hile an accelerated
disintegration procedure "ill not allo" the remains to carr! out
een the slightest act o$ serice.
Hence it is completely wrong to assume that the
human body will join the soul as a result of this kind of
purification process.
+he e0ternal $orm1s spiritual su#stance has indeed the same
$unction and eentuall! unites "ith countless other su#stances o$
soul and li,e"ise "al,s the path o$ deelopment on earth as a
human soul .... #ut this cannot happen the "a! people
erroneousl! #eliee.
All su#stances are gien an appointed time $or their
deelopment "hich the human #eing cannot shorten at his o"n
discretion #! means o$ an e0ternal process.... i$ he does not
completel! use the only option of spiritual higher
development on earth) i.e. that he) #! his conduct) his right
attitude to"ards God) his $aith and his "holehearted actions of
love) ac.uires a degree o$ maturit! "hich can also shorten the
ph!sical $orm1s earthl! li$espan%
ho"eer) it must al"a!s #e le$t up to God1s "ill "hich help$ul
tas, *e "ill still assign to it....
Amen
