The best thing to do while on earth to make it better for ourselves after death is to develop along the lines of unselfish love. The way to heaven is to love so unselfishly that our soul vibrations will rise high enough to fit into heaven. By doing good to others, by improving our minds, by learning to cope with physical life, we earn our right of safe passage back to God. In doing this, we magnify and honor God. Our earth lives are gifts from God, a rare privilege, given for us to learn to give and receive love.
Life is a road full of lessons teaching love.
When love is learned, you will have an eternal paradise within you. We are here to learn. The purpose of our life is to learn love. Heaven is our true home. Here on earth, we are in school.
