Virtue and Desire
Virtue is the expression of love and self-sacrifice, while desire is of a selfish nature bounded by materialism. Learn virtue in this world, for it is the language and toolset of the spiritual world.
If we die and had lived a selfish life, we will be left rudderless and without direction in the spirit world. Selfishness and desire of the flesh leave us no spiritual path forward. We then are compelled to return to an earthly existence once again. A virtuous person in life will find grace and peace after passing. In reality, they will be coming home. For the earth and its desires are a prison of the ignorant.
Are you a child of Virtue or Desire?
In this earthly prison, we will find a way to manipulate and become comfortable with our surroundings, as that is our perceived reality. After we serve our time, we will be liberated in death back to the spiritual realm. Those that we knew and left behind in this earthly existence will continue to serve their time. Those that passed, come back to visit only when prayed for or asked through love for that connection. For we no longer have reason to live in prison since we have paid our debt for our past ignorance/sin. Once back in the spiritual world, do we have then the knowledge that prison has taught us to not sin again?
Heaven will give you all the gifts you need to dwell there but if your gnosis is not of pure truth and thought, you will again go back to the exsistence of materialism to continue your quest for truth and knowledge.
The selfish will return to humanity quickly, while the virtuous will stay in heaven and have a hedge of protection in where and how they return to their spiritual clan on earth. It is not so much a punishment, but a sequence of our education to find truth through trial and error on earth.
Virtue is a mental reaction that offers release.
Desire is an emotion that requires action as a remedy.
One is spiritual, the other materialistic.
One emanates outward. The other inward.
One gives, the other takes.
Self-preservation is the greatest passion, as is self-sacrifice.
Life is more dramatic when you’re taunting death, but do not desire it so.
Nature demands procreation.
Desire demands we go to the heavens.
Virtue demands we Love all things.
I would be blind if not for the fig leaf
They brought into being
Gold and silver,
Money and coins,
Iron and other metals and all things of this sort.
And the people who were attracted were led astray into troubles
And were greatly misled.
And grew old
Experiencing no pleasure,
And died
Finding no truth,
Never knowing the true God.
This is the way that they enslaved all of creation
From the foundation of the world until now.
[They took some women and produced children out of darkness
And they closed their hearts
And they hardened themselves
in the hardness of their artificial spirit
Until the present day.] Nag Hammadi – Book of John
