I would like listeners to know, that while Emmet Fox may be on the right track here, he also may not be describing the transition process from "Life After Death."  Never the less I was entertained by some of this thoughts on the nature of living in different layers of life experiences after death.  I can not say his view is purely speculative because I did not see a lot of footnotes in the reading which would support his ideas with facts.  That being said, I do not dispute his observations knowing that I can not have an intelligent discussion, since my discussions would be speculative.  I leave i to you, the listener to create your own notions with an open mind concerning the nature of life after death.

This segment talks in detail about the type of life that might be lived after "death" on this earth.

I would like you to know this humor.  Emmet Fox's copy right of this book was in 1931.  During the great depression a need of a book like this is apparent.  Positive thinking was needed to get us to summon our courage and innovate and solve problems.  Oh, yes.  The humor part is this.  There are many uses of the ideas in this book found in Hollywood's movies.  To name two: Poltergeist and Ghost give visual substance of the ideas making them better understood by me.  The scenes follow some of the book's most unusual concepts.  I laughed out loud when I had this realization.

Emmet Fox discusses some thoughts about the nature of life after death.  The ideas are unique.  Living after dying has intrigued many people because it is so mysterious.  There are some ideas about this cycle of life which are interesting.  If you are a traditional Christian you may have ideas  which are fixed in your mind about the subject.  This traditional view is at odds with many of those of Emmet Fox though there are hints in his writing which indicate some common ideas between his view and the views of traditional Christianity.

A side note: There are some expressions in Mr. Foxes writing which are poorly written and cause me confusion when reading.  I make mistakes when I read though I think I have improved greatly in that area.  To remove the confusion from some of Mr. Foxes "statements" would require me to rewrite the sentence.  This I am unwilling to do.

The subject of death is one I don't want to think much about.  My fear based consciousness kicks in and that is the result.  But God is good; he is love.  The presence of fear belongs someplace else.  Changing consciousness to true and positive thoughts is the state of mind I desire.  I do not accept fear.  I reject it.  God has not given us a spirit of fear.  His ideas about death are new to me.  They are different than the traditional Christian idea of the nature of death.  At any rate, my objective is to read his thoughts with an open mind.  A closed mind allows no thoughts in other than those that agree with what I already "know."  An open mind is necessary for change.  Keeping my mind open to good thoughts renews my mind and makes my life better.

If you are like me, you need to clean up your consciousness.  Negativity manifests in my mind almost without notice.  It sets up housekeeping in my diseased brain.  So what is the answer?  I don't know.  But Emmet Fox suggests a Seven Day Mental Diet.  This diet forbids negativity a dwelling.  My job is to forbid any and all negative thoughts.  I do  not accept them.  These thoughts do not come from a loving God.  "God does not give us the spirit of fear."  That comes from some place else.   Fear seems the root of all other negativity.  At least, fear does seem to be an evil and corrosive thread throughout my consciousness.  Emmet Fox suggests his plan for a cleansing of the consciousness of all negativity.  Sound impossible?  It does to me too, but that is a negative thought as well.

As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, evidence of things not seen.  For by it, the elders obtained a good report.

There is only one required method to Spiritual Progress.  That method is experiencing the presence of God - Prayer.  There is no substitute for prayer.

"The name of the Lord is a strong tower.  The righteous, right thinker, runs into it and is safe."
