Whatever path to God you follow ought to make you able to stand on your own feet here as well as in the inner worlds; here and now, in this lifetime, before you drop the body in death.

If the path isn’t able to do that, then you ought to keep looking until you find one that gives you this ability.

The purpose of the spiritual path of ECK is to give you an idea of how to become a more spiritual being and master your spiritual destiny.

Do what you can for yourself. Do what you can for others. In doing so, you are moving forward spiritually as a divine light of God.

What we are aiming for is not to avoid the roller-coaster effect of life, but to gain the middle path. This means the path of moderation, the balanced outlook, the spiritual viewpoint that no matter what happens, the sorrows of life will not bury us forever. When loved ones leave in death, we cry—but not forever. We are able to face life knowing that they will still live on in full consciousness.

We know that the divine cause, the Divine Being, has put us here to learn something. It is up to us to go out into life and find out what it is.

Due to the impact of religions that know virtually nothing about the after life running rampant in this country, many Souls are becoming earth bound after death of the physical body, without any idea that they are dead and without knowing where to go or what to do. They end up continuing what they have been doing while their physical body was alive

To see the Light and hear the Sound is to experience spiritual upliftment that pulls you into the worlds of knowing.

The higher you go in awareness, the more you expect of yourself, because Divine Spirit is saying to you, “There is always a better way to do it.” It gently nudges you to bring out the best.

The inner experiences occur more often and with more vividness in ECK than in possibly any other spiritual path on earth, because this teaching has the Light and Sound as living elements.

As a spiritual exercise, take yourself into a larger room. For example, if you have a desire for self-discipline, leave the room of self-discipline that you’re in. Go down the corridor, and go into another room. This room will be larger. It will be much larger. Just live within the awareness that you want to be in this room of more self-discipline. Then let the Holy Spirit, the ECK, bring about the changes in your life that will accompany such a resolution.

That Light and Sound—which means anything that you can see, anything that you can hear in your world—is the expression of God’s love for you.

There are also five virtues—ways to offset the passions: discrimination, forgiveness or tolerance, contentment, detachment, and humility.

what extra ordinary thing does soul accomplish after all the unpleasant journey? Isn't it going back to the same state it was before?
Soul in its original state is all loving, omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent just like God but it didn't have a realization of these qualities within it. The qualities were latent and undeveloped. That was the reason God had to create the lower universes, to help Soul unfold it's latent qualities.

i thought all souls started the journey at the same time, or what do you mean by younger souls?
Soul does not grow old or mature with time. What matures Soul are experiences in the lower worlds. More in the physical plane expecially earth.

When God created the lower universes and sent souls down some tarried at the mental plane, some at the causal plane deciding to take their time before making it down to the physical plane. The more rugged ones made it to the physical plane and started the climb back to the God realm with more experience and maturity.

The lesser experiences soul has, the more immature and younger it will be.
That is the beauty of being on earth. The opportunity to have rugged experiences that can propel you back to the heart of God abounds here. It is really a privilege to reincarnate on earth.

@ benodic,
is the above the same thing as God realization?
Stopping thoughts and dropping the mind is just the beginning of self realization. God realization is much more sublime

The answers can always be found at the inner temple. You have the source, the divine ECK, within your heart.

Approach the altar of God with love and humility, and your answers will come when all preparations have been made.

if one sees light and images when he closes his eyes instead of the the normal darkness that everyone else sees,what does that signifies?
That is the beginning of your spiritual eye opening to start seeing into the inner planes

also, does images exist in the higher spiritual worlds,or are they only light?
Images exist only in the lower planes where the mind is active

Please which of the spiritual plane does one hear the sound of something like laughter or cackling?
No particular plane has that as it's unique feature. You can hear that sound from physical plane to etheric plane

If you are into physical fitness, you run, walk, ride a bicycle, or find some kind of exercise that will keep you fit.

There are also exercises that keep us fit spiritually.

The spiritual exercises open your heart to the Light and Sound of God, which is simply divine love, the love of God. When your heart opens to love, with it come wisdom and understanding.

In a sense, this life is a dream. If the so-called dreams we have are figments of the imagination, then so is this life.

But on the other hand if this life is real, then perhaps there is more reality to the dream life than we have been able to recognize or accept in the past.

If you want to bring yourself closer to the Holy Spirit, say, “I am a vehicle for God and Divine Spirit.” Then begin your day with joy. Know that everything is being accomplished as it should be.
