In 1974
the Father's Messenger suggested that I followed a certain
destiny. I accepted it dispassionately then.
Forty-three yeats later I keep on achieving (Rev of
Arès 35/6) it fierily (xLi/3-10).
I am aging, but the Father is blowing on my Fire
harder.
My twilight has begun, but every day I am more ablaze with
the faith and hope I have gained.
Will my twilight be short or long? It is no great matter!
Some day my heart will stop beating and my soul
will take over it and stretch out towards the infinite the
Golden thread of the Word that God has given me,
which my brothers and sisters will make fast on Earth more
and more securely, while I a prophet will be
stretching it out up to the far reaches of the galaxies, in
the midst of which the Father once made me run (Rev of
Arès vi/1-4).
I will go to Abraham's bosom. His
universal paternity lies in the space between his arms. His bosom
holds the limitless Universe where the souls are forever
flying. Whenever Doctor House, who is an absolute heathen
in a TV series, says that "there is nothing in the beyond", he is
unaware that he is perfectly right. The beyond is so much
unthinkable that nothing can depict it in any language.
The nothing is the Whole.
There is no such thing as death. Why would I be afraid to die?
I am just a link of the endless chain of Life (Rev of Arès
24/5). Before I was born there had been my long ancestry;
after I am dead, there will be my long issue. I have no need to be
reincarnated, because there is no end to Life all. What
is to stop is just my short life, my blood life, which is not
bound to last long and which is but a tiny stitch of the infinite
Outspread one: Yahweh, God, Father, Allah, Brahma, Mazda, the
Great Spirit, the One who has been given lots of names, because He
has no Name. He is the Life.
"Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is
transformed," said Lavoisier, who was unaware that he so
quoted the Creator Himself.
Religion has got wrong ideas of God and death, so millions of
human beings have ended losing faith in God as well as
afterlife. They are right. After I had witnessed the Theophanies
in 1977 on the one hand, and after I had during the Theophanies
been flying throughout the Universe (Rev of Arès vi/1-4)
experiencing my death before time on the other hand, I have
forever stated that I do not know much about God and death
anymore. God is not the absolute sovereign king and judge, as they
say, and afterlife is not a transposition of earthly
happiness (paradise) or sufferings (hell). God is Life
and Good, so believing in God is regaining Life
(Rev of Arès 24/5) and Good (12/3, xxxiii/11,
xxxviii/3), of which each man is a particle likely to stay
alive or freeze (Rev of Arès2/11, 4/7, 13/4, 16/5,
17/7, 24/1, 28/3, 30/9, 31/12, 33/33), because frozen
is whatever or whoever cannot Live. This starts
something indescribable, that no human language can tell about.
The depiction of the death process in The Revelation of Arès
(xL/12-17) is just about the days after the
heart has stopped beating. The Word is silent on what happens
later. Vladimir Jankelevitch said, "Death is the problem above all
else and even, in a way, it is the only problem," and he added,
"I'll bring my secret along, if there is a secret ever, to the
grave with me." I reply to him that there is nothing secret, there
is no problem then; there is just the unknown and the
inexpressible. Death is just something else, when the nothing
becomes the Whole.
So I will pass some day from the nothing to the
Whole. Death is irrevocable as far as most humans are concerned
with a few extremely rare exceptions: Elijah that escapes the
grave (Rev of Arès 2/10), Jesus risen
(Matthew 28/1/10), who paid me visits in 1974.
Buddha, who would not elude death, said, "I have not told you
about existence or non-existence, or what is neither the former
nor the latter. Why haven't I told you about that? Because that is
not related to virtue, nor to any element of the law (that is
to be 28/8), and that does not tend towards conversion to
the will, the end of desire, the rest, acquisition of upper
abilities, extreme wisdom, Nirvana." In other words, that is
beyond all explanatoty descriptive capabilities of an earthly
language, whatever. The Nirvana is the purpose of the Buddhist
practice, the Awakening (bodhi), but as for me I say, It is the
purpose of penitence, it is Good in the form
of transcendency, Good beyond man's cerebral conception,
Good in its universal conception, that which is tangled up
in the Father of the Univers(al) (Rev of Arès 12/4).
Abraham as the first patriach and founder of faith in a sole God;
he is the believers' father. Abraham's bosom is a very
fine picture for a society that sees itself being a network of
kinships and considers that picture as the ideal of Salvation
(Rev of Arès 28/25), the final fulfilment of spiritual
relationship, Abraham himself is the best example of this primacy.
The spiritual kinship also is the meeting of the believers of
three religions that claim to have their roots in Abraham's
bosom : Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
Look at the illustration at the top : It shows Abraham's global
fatherhood with radical effectiveness; he stretches out his arms,
so making his own bosom a warmly open place, and he wears a
good-hearted smile. There is an equivalence between Salvation
and the reuniting to the Whole, of which the Father is the
universal center. A similar idea is represented in the picture of
the apostles James and Andrew.
To me conscienceness is the essential matter about the afterlife.
Some people happen to ask me, "You know what death is, because God
made you experience it (Rev of Arès vi/1-5)." I reply,
"Just the same there is a great difference between the afterlife I
experienced in 1977, of which I was conscient in my living brain,
and the afterlife when I breathe my last, of which I have no idea
I will be conscient once my brain is dead." When there's is just
the soul left, I think that one cannot at all identify
the fundamental nucleus of one's being with one's situation in the
same manner. One is necessarily facing a quite different reality.
The self is likely to disappear and be replaced by a state of
universality. One bursts onto an altogether different world and
the way one feels the new life is utterly imperceptible to blood
eyes.
What will I be busy with in the Universe ? As I am a
particle of the Creative Might, I will contribute to the endless
Creation.
