@aragorn I would also add "Spirit Teachings" by Stainton Moses. There is also a dedicated thread.
And books by Elsa Barker.

Yeah...Thank you Starshine for sharing that. I can relate and resonate with your words a lot.Thank you for sharing these challenging views of the afterworld. I definitely was more envisioning a kind of 'fantastic vision of infinity' with a vague outlook of the possible interactions one may have at that level. The latter description in point 1 is surprising and uplifting in that sense. Imagining exquisite natural beauty is way more appealing than an infinite interstellar void, I have to say.
That, in light of the recent DBB thread, is really interesting. That would explain a lot regarding the necessity to overcome a profound materialistic and nihilistic worldview. Also, it brings an even deeper meaning to 'challenges are fun'. Really ambitious, to say the least.
The challenge is to find/realize/understand the divine while in a denser plane, where all is set to keep up a pervasive illusion. As one develops his discernment for the Divine more cleanly, one is certainly going to be at a higher vibration rate, as his Knowledgebase is expanded.
I've been quite thoughtful about it all lately. I feel more serene thinking that physically dying does not mean death. I'm reminded of Ark's words regarding five lives. Conceptually, it is a justification to the idea of dying for an ideal instead of surviving and selling your Soul to the devil in the process. With such a conviction, one is potentially really dangerous, strong and extremely disobedient to the forces of Entropy.
Cowardice comes from an inherent fear of physical/mental/emotional harm or even death. I am a coward in many ways, as I have many fears. Your judgment, I fear. My own judgment is worse though. Even though I know I am on the right track by being here, I can't help but be full of doubts, full of internal consideration and fears of being unmasked in my weaknesses. I know I still have a lot of improvements to make in my use of the forum and in the way I share content.
I'd like to know, what I am supposed to do to be of help in this world. Even more so as I am feeling a progression if I compare myself to who I was before. I am impatient. Through here, I learned persistence. Laura's words are even more important now that I've taken a few steps on the ladder:
At every step back, this sentence reinforces the need for constant self-actualization. It is a never-ending process and it is all that counts. Without being too cautious, the thought loops come back, bad habits jump back, there will never be any rest.
I'm quite slow to write my posts when it comes to expressing, formulating my thoughts. I know I have to overcome obstacles to be of any help here. Developing character is the most important thing to do and that is simply hard, although, way better than being a victim. I understood the need to be responsible, and to focus on oneself first and foremost. For now, it's the best I can do to consider it as a duty. Altruism would be a natural byproduct of such improvements. Or so I think. What I mean is, of course, I can't help anyone if I can't help myself.
Point 6 and 25 are also greatly inspiring in the way to use such a Forum. Hope to use it the best way possible, dare to ask, dare to unmask yourself.
Tribal unit! Heartwarming.
That also would explain why you can sense almost the same flavor, density, mindset, codes, in every bar. I know that for certain as my father spent his free time there his entire life. I've always felt those places to be nocive, the lights, the smell, the old decoration, trash on the floor, gambling machines, drunk in the afternoon big mouths, the poor, uninformed arguments, it is all really morose.
Just a note that Whitton and Fischer's book is already on the 'list'. Btw, that book seems to be difficult (or at least very pricey) to get, did you find it somewhere for a cheaper price?Should also add Laura's recommendation in the latest C's session: Life Between Life by Whitton and Fischer. Just finished reading it and it's excellent.
By the way, what is Laura's / Forum's recommendation about doing self-hypnosis type exercises to access the last between-lives or any past life information as described in Chapter 13 - A Guide To Self-Exploration of the Interlife by Whitton and Fischer. Is it a good idea or better to avoid it?

You just did contribute something worthy emmanuel - you shared honestly from your heart and also 'owned' and acknowledged something that has clearly weighed on you for a long time. I see that as beautiful, courageous and inspiring.Yeah...Thank you Starshine for sharing that. I can relate and resonate with your words a lot.
I am lurking and hiding on this forum for 15 years now. I just can't find enough courage to expose myself to beautiful souls on this forum let alone find in me anything worthy or inspiring to contribute without being just noise.
But anyway I am immensely grateful for all finding Laura, Ark and the crew.
Much love and respect to all.
I was wondering something similar, but via an external source. Not sure if I'd trust myself to do it. I've learned so much about myself recently that I'd want to see if I could find a pattern or insight through past lives on this life. Of course respecting my own free will, as maybe some things are best to be left unknown according to one's life lesson plan.Should also add Laura's recommendation in the latest C's session: Life Between Life by Whitton and Fischer.

That's how we ended up in the STS mess in 3D, making the choice without the knowledge of the consequences of imprisonment.The way I understand it free will individual agency is the decision to “try it or not” to walk through the proverbial door?
A: Close. But investigate before buying and practicing in future okay?
Q: (L) Investigate what? Ideas?
A: Yes. And concepts and especially practices

Hmmm the way I understand it after contemplation based on previous 3D STS experiences we chose to return (and according to the book we met with “board members/others ” to decide) I think the choice or I surmise the unconscious choice to return here was decided based on incorporating feedback and mentation from higher self and elders and ourselves in the between life state. This is just a summation based on all experiences and info gathered over roughly 17 yrs we knew what this was and decided to go back IMO… Sort of like a soldier going through the WWI experience seeing death, being injured, realizing it’s for governments…. and then being called on or feeling a duty to a higher purpose or some other reason to enlist in WWII why would anyone consciously do that? The answer because we weren’t conscious at the time of decision. But again that’s a “educated guess” This objective answer I have never come across the whole pie and this question is many steps away from the non essential at this point (imo) who the creator is question.That's how we ended up in the STS mess in 3D, making the choice without the knowledge of the consequences of imprisonment.
