The sheath of life is a membrane that does not separate one world from another, but rather enables a particular exchange to pass through it, backwards and forth - it joins the realms - and affords a certain passage of continuity to occur.
And so you can understand from this that a membrane is not as a wall or fence or obstacle per se - it is an enabler - and meant for both to coexist, and allow for this and that, back and forth, and so on.
In spiritual terms last century it was referred to as ‘the veil’ when a medium could perceive something of the souls who had dissolved their physical bodies and relaxed into their more familiar forms.
To be able to see beyond the veil was to be able to sense through this membrane; however, and nonetheless, this partition to both remained, and the visions were never truly as clear and concise as the reality was on the other side.
And even within our dreams, our consciousness and recollections, membranes are there of many kinds: personal and worldly, for which images and meanings distort, going from one to the other.
And so it is not impossible - in fact it would not be practical - for ourselves to remain solely within the physical realm without such constant transport … the soul at all times belongs in the realms that lie further - in their own natural space. However, in waking life, and on the other side, our conscious recollections are mixed and muddled, confused and unclear.
In near-death experiences an individual will have a physical connection (a body etc.) remaining and often you may hear their account in the spiritual worlds of being. And then they are told of their life, reminded of their purpose, and guided back so that they can continue on.
Now had a physical death occurred, the consciousness is both expanded and compacted to a much larger degree. When some time has passed and a good many
processes besides, the individual will be mindfully far clearer and distinct, organised, awakened, and intelligent in the spiritual worlds thereafter. They do not behave as in the dream state, or as remembered, but are incarnating well, and where they are.
Similarly and by contrast an individual can be fully present within this world; or may daydream permanently, living their best part into the spirit realms, losing their definitive consciousness within the physical world.
With this the spirit takes in fleeting impressions of the physical world which then becomes similar to our recollections of dreams: often nonsensical, incomplete,
crumpled, associative, emotional, and somewhat lacking continuity to reality overall.
Crimes are most often committed in this condition. Delusional behaviour and self aggrandising proves the opine between the inner dialogue and reality ‘living the
dream’ as it were. In the extreme there develops senility and then death.
Day-dreaming, meditation and imagining are all relatively safe practices so long as the individual self-consciously embarks on entering into the borders of their being knowingly, with the distinction and understanding that their impressions gleaned are
at best substandard to the underpinning realities experienced.
The comfort to be had is that we are far far more present in our consciousness, and are in control of ourselves after we have passed over into death than realised whilst alive; and although dreaming and the memories of such afford us small insights, they
are not representative of the completeness we will experience, or of our heavenly abilities and endeavours once there.
