Suma
Ching Hai has spoken to us many times about the book "Embraced By The Light"
by Betty J. Eadie, commenting that this book was written for spiritual practitioners,
to prove that everything She says is true. In this book, a mother of eight
talks to us about her near-death experience and what she learned and saw on
the other side of life. As I was devouring the book, I exclaimed joyfully:
"My God, this book is so good! This book is so true! This book is so great!
All that Supreme Master Ching Hai says is really true!" This book had the
power to fill me with joy, love, understanding and acceptance of my life.
We
should not judge ourselves as long as we do not have the knowledge to understand
the true meaning of things. Nor should we make comparisons between ourselves
and others, because we have chosen our own talents and weaknesses as tools
for spiritual growth. We are unique and just perfect the way we are. We came
here to learn how to love one another and to go back to the unconditional
love of God. Here are some excerpts from the book when Betty, the author and
main character, was shown the spirits/souls in heaven selecting bodies to
achieve spiritual growth on Earth.
"After
watching the spirits trying to corral these two young people together, my
attention turned to other spirits making preparations to go to Earth. One
exceptionally brilliant and dynamic spirit was just entering his mother's
womb. He had chosen to enter this world mentally handicapped. He was very
excited about this opportunity and was aware of the growth he and his parents
would achieve. The three of them had bonded with each other and planned for
this arrangement long before. He chose to begin his mortal life at his body's
conception, and I watched his spirit move into the womb and enter the newly
formed life. He was anxious to feel the great love of his mortal parents."
"Abortion,
I was told, is contrary to that which is natural. The spirit coming into the
body feels a sense of rejection and sorrow. It knows that the body was to
be his, whether it was conceived out of wedlock or was handicapped or was
only strong enough to live a few hours. But the spirit also feels compassion
for its mother, knowing that she made a decision based on the knowledge she
had."
"I
saw the unconditional love of God, beyond any earthly love, radiating from
Him to all His children. I saw the angels standing near us, waiting to assist
us, rejoicing in our accomplishments and joys. But above all, I saw Christ,
the Creator and Savior of the Earth, my friend, and the closest friend any
of us can have. I seemed to melt with joy as I was held in His arms and comforted
- Home at last. I would give all in my power, all that I ever was, to be filled
with that love again, to be embraced in the arms of His eternal light."
If
only Betty Eadie practiced the Quan Yin Method, she could experience this
unconditional love again, even before dying!
