The universe does not make mistakes. All things are as they should be. Nothing is without purpose. Even evil has a reason to be. We are here to experience a life without divinity. Our purpose is to experience life and all it has to offer. Both good and bad. Then to find our way back home.

[@TheBirdsWay]

Beautifully said! The universe, in its infinite wisdom, provides every experience-whether perceived as good or bad-as a means for growth and understanding. Each moment is a part of the greater tapestry, guiding us to rediscover our true essence. Embracing the duality of existence and finding balance helps us transcend, bringing us closer to our divine source. Every step, every challenge, is a step toward homecoming. May your path be filled with insight and inner peace as you journey through life’s mysteries!

This is a school for souls. And this is the closed system. That means it exist by recycling( the tree of life)❤❤❤ End The God's creation is perfect for The Purpos He ment to be.❤❤❤ I LOVE YOU LORD❤❤❤ PAIN IS A TOOL.

[@TheBirdsWay]

Beautifully said! This world truly is a school for souls, each experience shaping us and guiding us closer to understanding. The cycle of life, like the tree of life, nurtures growth, and even pain serves a higher purpose as a tool for transformation. Indeed, every part of creation has its place in the divine plan. Much love and gratitude for this wisdom! ❤️🌳

@TheBirdsway Much love to you too!

God created the universe as an operating system and then seeded it with life. He gave free will to his creation and then sit back and watch what we do with it.

I used to feel bad for people going through hard times. But then i learned about how we plan our lives before we came here. All the events in our lives are things we planned for ourselves. Just experiences.

[@TheBirdsWay]

It’s a powerful shift to see life’s challenges as part of a greater plan. Yogananda taught that each soul chooses certain experiences to grow and evolve, seeing life as a school for the soul’s development. While understanding that we may have chosen our challenges can bring acceptance, Yogananda also reminded us that compassion for others’ struggles remains essential. By offering kindness and support, we honor both our journeys and theirs, as we’re all learning, growing, and helping each other along the way. 🙏🌸

It's a bet. We wanted to be as powerful as Prime Creator and "it' gave us a way to prove our worthiness with a sort of bet/dare. We were bet that if we could start from the beginning of evolution (organisms into fish into... ) and raise our vibrational awareness all the way up each dimension through the millions/ billions of earth years, that we would be rewarded in some grand reward. We knew what was involved (many many many deaths and pain) but we did it anyway because we knew that to be closer to Prime Creator's vibration would mean we also could one day evolve into a star and create our own planets and realities with our own life forms to give life to and guide. That's the reward. Death and spiritual realm of darkness is the risk. So this is why we have spirit guides and die to be judged, only to make a new plan of reincarnation into the 3D worlds if we are not at a high enough vibration to enter Paradise with Prime Creator, which is usually the case.

Thank you for sharing such an intriguing perspective. The idea of evolving through various levels of consciousness to ultimately become co-creators with the Divine is a concept found in many esoteric traditions. It reflects the immense complexity and beauty of our soul's journey. Paramhansa Yogananda often spoke about the soul’s evolution and its return to the Source. He emphasized that while the soul’s journey involves many experiences-both joyful and painful-they are all ultimately part of God’s greater plan for each being to realize their divine potential. The notion of “raising vibrational awareness” resonates with the idea that our consciousness expands through different stages until we align with God’s vibration. However, Yogananda reminds us that despite the struggle and the “bet” we might feel we’ve taken, God’s love is the ultimate destination. All suffering will one day be seen as a necessary means to awaken us to our true divine nature. Thank you again for your comment and for delving into such profound ideas. It’s through these discussions that we all gain deeper insights into the nature of existence and our purpose within it. 🙏

@@TheBirdsWay yea we are experiencing our lives with suffering, so that when we one day grow to the potential of the creator and create our own spirits and planets, - we will know the laws to rule our creations and the consequences that may come in the 3d. Isn't that something? There is no limit to our souls potential and anything is possible.

[@cosmicsea7]

Yes, perhaps earth is the training ground simulation in how to become like God. By our own choosing, we must go through the lessons and graduate here first to get to the heavens.

What about non- human animals which are tortured by cruel humans? Does God enjoy seeing the cows , pigs, fish and many more animals which are slaughtered or boiled alive toxic people who have no compassion?

[@TheBirdsWay]

The suffering of innocent animals is one of the most challenging aspects of life to understand and accept. It’s deeply painful to witness or even think about, and it’s natural to question why such cruelty exists. God, in His true nature, is pure love and compassion. He does not take pleasure in the suffering of any living being, whether human or animal. According to spiritual teachings, the presence of cruelty and suffering is not a reflection of God’s will, but rather a consequence of human actions influenced by ignorance and delusion (maya). The Divine has given humans the gift of free will, which includes the ability to choose between compassion and cruelty. Sadly, many choose the latter, leading to the suffering we see in the world. However, there is also a karmic aspect to this. Those who harm others, including animals, create negative karma that they must face in this life or future lives. No action goes unnoticed in the grand tapestry of the universe. The pain and suffering caused to others ultimately come back to the one who inflicts it, as the soul evolves through experiences and learns from them. It’s through awareness, empathy, and spiritual growth that humanity can progress toward a world where all beings are treated with respect and compassion. Each of us can contribute to this shift by advocating for animal rights, promoting kindness, and spreading the message of compassion in whatever ways we can. Ultimately, the suffering we see reminds us of our duty to be voices for the voiceless and to work towards a world where all beings can live in peace. 🙏

​@@TheBirdsWay Thank you for sharing the spiritual standpoint. It is very painful to see innocent animals suffering from birth to death due to cruel human act. Yet cruel humans rarely suffer while kind hearted humans suffer throughout their life!
