- 42 - Mr. Y. : It is at times very difficult to do the right thing in regards to religious indoctrination when bringing up children. Spirit : I wish that everyone would have been as free as I was, there would be a lot less misery and doubt. Papa, I am so happy that I may come to you once again. Uncle F., Uncle C. and myself went down to the Earth’s sphere the day after – not to our old home, but to where the conditions of the lower planes reigned. It is much closer to hell there than one can express in words. It is worse than in a mental asylum where everyone is insane in their own way! – You cannot possibly imagine the kind of hell it is. One believes this and the other believes that and all of them are in darkness. All of them are slaves of their own forms of beliefs and confessions and one cannot get them to see reason. One must put some concrete assignment in front of their eyes in order to catch their attention. Music does sometimes awaken their consciousness in regards to their situation. – When one succeeds with catching their attention, it becomes possible at times to really get to them, but dogmas and fanatical religious beliefs are usually so strongly rooted in them that they are not open for anything else. If you want to glean a faint concept of the conditions within the Earth’s sphere, you have to visit the section of a mental asylum where they keep the worst cases. You can then gain a rough idea of the conditions some people experience over here when they arrive without an inkling of the reality of life in the hereafter.” These types of reports give us insights into the sphere of existence of unfortunate deceased and the efforts made by other spirit entities to help them. Those that have a more detailed interest in this should by necessity read the whole book by Dr. Wickland (23), it is still available these days. The statements spirits make in the circle that I participate in, are quite similar. First I give you the account of a spirit entity that calls herself “Magdalena” and indicates that she died an old peasant woman at around 1900 in Southern Germany aged about 80 years. She had undergone some training after a period of transition and recuperation, that is supposed to enable her to retrieve the deceased from the lower, darker regions. As she had only just started her activity, her successes where only modest to begin with. This often made her feel very disconsolate and she had to recuperate after her disappointments before continuing. Meeting on the 11th of September 1986 Magdalena reports through the mouth of the medium Mrs. A. Participants: Seven other people. Magdalena : I am pleased that I am allowed to be here again. I even believe that I am not really amiss here, that I might even fit in with your circle. I must tell you that I had an indescribable, wonderful time of late and that I am once again filled with energy. I do believe that nothing can upset me for the time being. I did tell you that I was once again pretty downhearted because I remained so unsuccessful and couldn’t see a prospect of helping others. This is probably the norm when we believe that we do not advance. But when our energy is depleted, we have the ability to renew it. This is what happened with me. Even you have to introduce rest periods and how you arrange them and how nice you make these for you is up to you. You can do things that refresh you or do what a lot of other people do, tire yourself out during your rest period and waste even more energy than during your working hours. I must honestly say that it is indeed somewhat easier for us here, because we are taken to a wonderful, beautiful region. This is why the prerequisites were extremely good. But we must indeed also make our contribution in regards to using the things that are around us. I can for instance make some valuable friendships and have some good conversations with these friends. They have told me a lot. It was for me, I do believe so, the most important thing to hear about the others’ experiences and how they fared.
