you can conclude that He doesn’t exist. Most people look for God in
wrong places. (The first Soviet astronauts to go into space came back
and said they had the proof that He doesn’t exist because they look
all over the sky and couldn’t find Him!) Even those who reach God
ask for wrong things and they are surprised when they don’t get what
they want.
God is found where there is true love, where people live for the sake
of others, where there is suffering and pain. When you make effort to
love with true love, to sacrifice yourself for others, when you take
care of those in pain, you will find God. If you want to attract God’s
attention, don’t ask for things – if not, for a stronger faith, for a
bigger heart to love others and for wisdom to discern good from bad
or things for others - but work for God’s kingdom and His
righteousness.

It is worth noting that when the evil spirit does evil or descent to torment, it is
not conscious that its action will bring any benefit. The spirit is just doing what it is

Love, as the letter can explain, is the state of mind where you are
acting with all your heart, sincerely and devotedly for others. In
love, there are conjugal love, spiritual love, and religious agape love.
118
CONJUGAL LOVE
The conjugal love is the love where men and women are connected
physically. On earth, we can feel emotion when our bodies can meet
and love. But in heaven, a man and woman without physical bodies
can love. The conjugal love between those high spirits (those who
are close to God) is like a beautiful picture. Since the bodies of the
two become totally one when they love, they can feel a strong
emotion through their bodies and minds that goes beyond the feeling
the state of the total absence of the ego. It is like feeling you are in a
magical world.
Also, you can contemplate the scene of making love with your own
eyes. Couples on earth make love in their bedroom most of the time.
Here, in the spiritual world, that is not absolutely the case. It is not a
hidden love that you can only make in the bedroom. In heaven, you

It is worth noting that this distinction is quite relative, as actually all diseases
come from sin. If our first human ancestors did not fall, we will not suffer from
disease as we would have become lords of creation and no creature (including
viruses) would have had resentment against humankind (Rm 8: 18-20) and tried to
destroy us. Germs and others would be useful in other ways. God’s kingdom is a
world of no incurable disease (no death due to illness) and no doctors but
ourselves.

A formula exists for the restoration of health. The restoration of

divider, under the fraction), the amount of indemnity (I) to pay for
our sins.

KARL MARX

Karl Marx lived on earth as the chief of the bad people. Why was he
so cruel? His rebellion was due to the resentment that he felt against
superior. He was not opened to the dialogue because of his big pride
and his arrogance about his thought. Then, he rebelled against the
social system, and his thought became the basis for the revolution of

Epilogue
Our life on earth is a precious growing opportunity. All of us, in
living, are preparing to die. Some know that it will be soon, others
will have many more years to prepare, and there will be those who
die far sooner than they expect. It is a fact of life that everyone will
pass on and none of us knows exactly when. Many will not be given
life.
The purpose of this booklet is to educate people about the next life in
enlightenment and comfort, and dispel the fear of death and the next
life.

Modern society does not honor death anymore as one of the normal stages of life. This
booklet of fifty-six questions and answers tries to respond to a need and to dissipate
ungrounded fears. It shows how we can prepare ourselves to make that ultimate mysterious
journey in a natural and most significant way.
If we had to go in a foreign country, we will take more time to prepare well this trip. In
comparison, most of us do not take enough time to prepare for that ultimate journey that all
of us - without exception - must make one of these days: the trip beyond the sensual world,
that we call death.
