This section is from the book "The Sacred Book Of Death", by Lauron William De Laurence. Also available from Amazon: The Sacred Book of Death - Hindu Spiritism Soul Transition and Soul Reincarnation.
When the human soul passes fully into its great astral existence, the Clairvoyant and Spiritual graces of the soul will henceforth rule. The whole soul of man becomes transformed and for the first time his soul will be brought into complete unison with Astral Guides and Spirits, and his eternal life. Man is then, and only then, able to yield in full obedience to high spiritual laws and then to perceive clairvoy-antly. He then becomes master of himself throughout and the perfect obedience, duration and extent of his powers will be co-extensive with his desires. With this change will come that development called New, or Spiritual Birth. It is then the spiritual sense will become refined and powerful, so much so that all will see the innermost thoughts and desires of their friends and associates still in the body and they can enter into intimate spirit communication with them.
Man during his earthly existence with his physical senses to only partly inform him as to the true and actual facts of his existence may doubt some of these things. But did you ever stop to think that when you walk into a room that, although you do not see that in order to do this, you are compelled to force an amount of air, equal to the size of your body, out of the enclosure. You may not realize that to swing your body or arm through the air you must push the air first before your body or arm. And let me say right here that you have many things to learn. Many and numerous are the revelations that you will receive and the time will slowly but surely come when you will realize how little you know or ever knew. For does a tree grow and expand all at once? Can a grain of wheat feel, know and literally realize what it means to be developed and expanded into a growing sprout.
If the Air, Auror and Ether were visible to the physical eye how many would grow more weary walking or running. Then again the Great Western Scientist and Philosopher (so-called) would never have dared to have thought of shaping his absurd, nonsensical and incomprehensible story and theory of vacant space as that which has so long disgraced their teachings. They have built their philosophy upon a vast and vague basis of nothingness, for they have sought to build before the student a great temple of mysteries and theology. A nonsensical and impenetrable wall and barrier of infinitude to keep mankind from any true or definite knowledge of his Divine existence.
Man's life during his present and future existence would be far better termed immortal than so onesided.
Certain theories have served very well as a scarecrow for many learned pseudo-philosophers and scientists to frighten and intimidate their fellow beings and followers. Many a sprout has taught his followers that as the Almighty is Infinite, and that all Astral and Spiritual powers are such, and that therefore the mortal mind of man cannot comprehend them, but that they should trustingly and most blindly accept such as sublime mysteries. Such teachings are directly opposed to the true law of the Soul. Many have said that in immortal life man shall have knowledge of himself. But it is the Divine Right and duty of every Soul to learn, for when a true and Sacred Knowledge of Spiritism fills the soul Blind faith and mystery cannot exist there.
