Your Soul is Heaven in You. You and Your Soul are One. Love Your Soul.
Your Soul is Heaven in You. You and Your Soul are One. Love Your Soul.
Question: What is Edenic Living?
Answer: Edenic Living™ with the trademark symbol refers to the System of spiritual techniques and prayers presented in my books. Edenic Living, without the trademark symbol, refers to the nature of one’s life while one is filled with and moved by the spiritual energy of one’s Soul.
Edenic Living does not mean that you will live a life free of troubles. It means that you will be able to meet and overcome the challenges in your life with the grace (energy currents and vibrations) of Soul (God).
Nor does the perfect nature of the Soul mean that you will become an unerring machine. Whatever comes out of your soul originates with God. The good of God is the perfect (sinless) nature and activity of pure Soul. Awaken to your Soul at the inner dimension of your being and you will understand the meaning of the words “perfect,” “sinless,” and “good.”
Question: I am Buddhist. Do the Edenic Living prayers and techniques require that I give up Buddhism?
Answer: No. Simply add the Edenic Living™ prayers and techniques to your current practices. Edenic Living™ provides simple prayers that will quickly, if not immediately, open one to God (Soul) within.
Whatever one’s religion, one only need add these prayers to all else that one does in their regular worship of God.
Edenic Living™ is not an organized religion. It is a way of life, that when embraced by enough people, will lead to an energetic atmosphere of spiritual peace and joy on planet Earth.
Question: How does spiritual union work?
Answer: Your mind and your heart are chakras of your soul body. As you fill your heart and mind with your soul's energy, you will become part of the perfect (sinless) body and activity of Heaven.
Spiritual union is the pure connection of your heart and mind with your soul. In the fully ascended state, your heart and mind become holy; that is, they will operate as the perfect heart and mind of your soul body, absent of all physical nature. This is the highest point of self-realization (soul-realization).
Question: At the beginning of your books, you cite the bible verse Matthew 5:48, “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in Heaven is perfect.” What is the meaning of this verse?
Answer: “Father” is the Soul of our Soul Universe (Heaven). When you know (feel and sense) your individual soul body as you, you will realize that the Father (our Macro/Universal Soul) and the son — your individual soul — are one in nature and activity.¹ Your heart, mind, and aura will become the effect of you, Soul, and your physical life will be the manifestation of Heaven on earth, the pure vibrations of Soul made flesh.
Question: Why is it necessary to suffer?
Answer: Your soul allows the outer (lower) part of its body — your heart and mind — to learn about the differences between Soul nature and physical nature.
Your heart and mind form a bridge over which the spiritual harmony of Heaven (Soul) crosses to enter earth (the physical dimension). This is the natural expansion of our Soul Universe (Heaven) into the physical universe. It is the love of your soul body for our Soul Universe (Heaven) that moves your soul to connect the outer part of its body — your heart and mind — to this world so that your entire spiritual body — your soul, heart, and mind — can build that bridge. You, your heart and mind suffer physical nature out of your love for Soul for this purpose.
Physical pleasure lures one into physical energy/matter where one experiences its dark pleasures and pains. As one experiences the contrast between the two natures, physical and Soul, one naturally develops loyalty to one’s soul and ascends [in vibration] to one's heavenly body. Thereat, one’s entire spiritual being — one's
soul, heart, and mind — as one body, becomes a bridge — a pure chakra between Heaven (Soul) and earth (the physical dimension) — for the spiritual energy of our Soul Universe (Heaven) to cross into the physical universe (earth).
Suffering physical nature/sensations is a temporary process you undergo to make your permanent ascension to pure Soul. There is no suffering in your soul body, only eternal bliss of being and life.
Question: Are human emotions and feelings physical nature?
Answer: Yes. Physical pleasure and pain are the thoughts, emotions/feelings, and sensations of physical vibrations/sensations in one’s mind and heart. The thought, feeling, and sensation of vengeance, for example, is a physical pleasure in mind and heart. When enjoyed, that vibration attaches to the life energy of the individual who relishes it. But then that energy circulates through the world and returns a greater intensity of that vengeance-energy upon the individual who enjoyed the vengeance. This is true for every thought, feeling, and sensation. As one demagnetizes from physical vibrations, one’s soul energy, the nature of which is supreme (divine) peace and joy, circulates through the world and returns to oneself with a greater intensity of spiritual love.
Question: Why would I want to give up physical pleasure?
Answer: While we are connected to a physical body, we cannot avoid physical pleasure and pain. The issue isn’t physical pleasure, it is feeling and sensing our soul bodies more than our physical bodies through physical pleasure and pain so that we don’t fall into the dark impulses of physical nature.
While you are of — receiving the energy of — your soul body, physical pleasures and pains will come and go, but you will sense the heavenly presence (vibrations) of your soul as yourself. The presence (vibrations) of your soul will insulate your heart and mind from the dark influences of physical sensations. Your actions will be good, because your soul will be the dominant influence in your heart and mind. When you enter spiritual union, however, your physical body will become fully entrained to Soul vibrations/sensations — spiritualized — and every feeling and sensation of physical pleasure and pain will be gone.
Question: What is the will of God?
Answer: Heaven on earth for all. ² This is the desire of your soul and of our Soul Universe (Heaven).
The manifestation of your soul’s desire in your speech and actions will open the outflow of your spiritual peace in your life.
Why should you desire Heaven on earth for those who deliberately enslave, torture, and kill the physical bodies of living beings? Because it is the only way to bring Heaven to earth for yourself, and for everyone else. Your genuine desire for Heaven on earth for every living being will grant you the karma of Heaven on earth in your life. When it is in your life, your heavenly presence will influence all who will receive it to do the same.
The evil in this world is not the heart and mind of the individual who commits evil acts. Evil is the influence (energy currents and vibrations) of physical nature [of physical energy/matter] possessing one’s heart and mind, speech and actions. Most people simply do not know how to demagnetize their being from physical influence (energy currents and vibrations). To do so, one only needs to turn one’s heart and mind toward their own soul and the spiritual peace from one’s soul will remove evil from one’s being.
Currently, physical nature is the dominant influence on planet Earth. By changing the atmosphere (influence) on this planet to spiritual peace, we change what influences the hearts and minds of every living being. Then everyone will more naturally express Soul nature — peace and joy — rather than physical nature — evil — in speech and action.
When you bring your soul’s nature to the physical level of your life, you will naturally awaken those who are possessed by physical nature to the eternal bliss of their soul at the inner (soul) dimension of their being. We can’t love the evil [of physical nature] that possesses a heart and mind. But we naturally love the soul of every living being, the nature of which is the supreme harmony of Heaven.
You spiritually love others when you feel and sense the soul energy of every living being rather than the physical energy to which living beings are attached. How is this done? First know (feel and sense) your soul by performing the Edenic Living™ prayers. When you feel and sense your soul in yourself, you will know the energy you are looking to feel and sense in others.
Question: You frequently refer to the evil in human nature. But aren’t humans inherently good?
Answer: Physical nature [of physical energy/matter]might seem natural to human beings, but physical nature (darkness) is antithetical to Soul nature (light). Physical nature only seems natural when there is no other nature to which it can be compared. But as one awakens to the existence of the inner (Soul) dimension of their being, one experiences the juxtaposition of these two natures (universes of energy/matter), and thus, the choice of the two bodies, Soul or physical, from which one can live.
Good is of life energy only, not physical energy. The inherent good in humans comes from our Soul Universe through our individual souls into our hearts and minds.
Human nature is part physical (dark/negative) energy/matter and part life (light/positive) energy/matter. The nature of the energy that circulates in one’s heart and mind heavily influences one’s behavior with that nature. Therefore, the ratio of life-to-physical sensations in one’s heart and mind determines the strength of the good-to-evil influences operating in oneself. This is the struggle of good and evil within every human being.
It is more accurate to refer to the evil in humans as physical nature rather than human nature, because, regardless of the physical form, it is physical energy/matter that influences evil behavior. Or more accurately, it is the lack of knowing one’s soul while connected to physical form that gives voice and action to evil (dark/negative) influences.
Question: What is Heaven like?
Answer: Your individual soul is a particle of Heaven. Awaken to your soul at the inner (heavenly) dimension of your being and you will know what Heaven is like firsthand. You can quickly, if not immediately, open to your soul via the Edenic Prayer™ and the Active Peace Technique™ presented in my book Soul Cymatics™: The Principles of Spiritual Freedom . These prayers are also available on the second and third pages, respectively, of this website.
Question: What does the soul feel like?
Answer: Like a pond of velvety water; bliss.
Question: How do you know all this information?
Answer: Everything I publish comes from my soul. Enter your soul and your soul will teach you likewise.
Question: Do you teach?
Answer: The best spiritual teacher is one’s own soul. I help people wake up to the existence of their soul. The moment one awakens to the inner (heavenly) dimension of their being, one’s soul will take their hand and perfectly lead them the rest of the way to spiritual (inner) union and to our Soul Universe.
1 The Soul of our Soul Universe is above gender. “Father” and “Son” are used because of their historical usage and reference. If you prefer, you can use the words “Mother” and “Daughter.” The name we give to God is a personal choice until we ascend [in vibration] to pure Soul, which is above the pairs of opposites, where any reference to gender is naturally dropped.
2 “earth” with a lower case “e” refers to the physical energy and physical matter of the physical universe which naturally includes one’s physical body and the physical level of one’s life. “Earth” with a capital “E” is the planet Earth — which is also physical energy/matter — upon which we live.
