human then showed their human side by reaching the end of
               their  physical  life  their  followers  sought  the  deify  them,  to
               immortalise  them  so  their  philosophy  would  not  die.  Even
               though the philosophy of many of these founders of religion
               included much reference and reverence to God the followers
               failed to see beyond the founder. Those who sought to keep
               the philosophy alive virtually cast it in stone and ensured it
               wasn't questioned or allowed to develop naturally, by drawing
               up  rules  and  regulations  to  hold  the  teachings  as  being
               infallible. No teachings from a spiritual source should do this.
               These writings, though from a Spirit, should not be taken as
               infallible  or  definitive  truth.  These  writings  are  to  help  you
               question  all  that  was  ingrained  in  you  as  a  child  regarding
               religion as a way of life, rather than living through spiritual
               awareness  and  enjoying  how  you  are  by  realising  who  you
               are.



               When we begin to question our physical origins for some clue
               to explain ourselves of to excuse ourselves we begin a wild
               goose  chase,  spiritually  speaking.  The  past  of  our  physical
               being is what has developed the current physical being, and as
               it is now is the reason for our choice. Let us use the analogy
               of going to purchase a motor car. We don't examine the past
               development  of  the  motor  car  before  we  begin  to  make  a
               choice. We first assess our needs, do we need a big, medium
               or small car? Do we need a saloon or an estate wagon? Do we
               need  a  domestic  or  commercial  vehicle?  In  other  words  we
               develop  a  specification  in  accordance  with  our  needs.  As  a
               Spirit  seeking  reincarnation  we  will  approach  the  choice  of
