我想把你们引介给你们自己

?此段摘自《灵魂永生》第二十二章 

辞别和引介：从我的角度看多维人格的各种面貌

你并非注定要溶入一切万有。你人格的种种面貌将按你目前了解的样子得以保留。一切万有是个体性的创造者，而非毁灭个体性的手段。

我“先前”的各个转世人格并没有在我之内消融，同样，你“过去”的各个转世人格也没有在你之内消融。他们全都活着，生机勃勃。他们全都走着自己的发展道路。你“将来”的转世人格就与你过去的转世人格一样真实。过一阵子，你就不会再操心这事了。在转世的架构之外，并不存在你们所认为的“死亡”。

不过，我的参考架构已不再专注于我的转世人生了。我已将注意力转向别的地方。

既然生生世世都是同步进行的，一切都同时发生，那么任何分离都是心理上的分离。我以现在的方式存在，而我的转世生命——用你们的话说——也仍然存在。但我现在并不关心他们，而是把注意力集中在其他的活动区域了。

不管人格在身体内还是身体外，它都会改变，因此死后你会变，正如你生前会变一样。照这样说，坚持在死后维持你现在的样子是很可笑的。就像一个孩子说“我会长大，但我永远不会改变现在的想法”一样。心灵的多维特质使它能够体验无穷无尽的维度。在一个维度里的经验绝不会否定在另一个维度的存在。

你们一直试图把灵魂挤进对存在本质的严格概念里，使其符合你们限制性的信念。岂知，通往灵魂之门永远开放，并导向所有经验的维度。

但是，如果你认为目前所知的自己就是全部的你、最终的你，那么你也会把灵魂想象成一个有限的存有，完全被目前这一生的探险所困，死后则根据这微不足道的数年里的表现而盖棺定论。

从许多方面讲，这倒是个轻松惬意的概念，虽然对有些人来说，其中“永堕地狱”的内涵可能是非常可怕的。不过，若要揣摩“神圣创造力”核心的丰富华美，这概念是太过干净了。灵魂处于你所知的肉体生命的构造之内，同时也在其外。你并不会因为拥有永恒的内在意识而与动物及其他存在分离。这样一个意识存在于所有生物之内，所有不同的形象里。

我将这一章的标题定为“辞别和引介”。辞别是我向你们告别，因为我将要结束这本书了。引介是对每位读者说的，因为我希望你们现在能带着对“自己是谁、是什么”的更深了解来直面自己。

因此，我想把你们引介给你们自己。

你无法通过遍访名师或博览群书来找到自己。你无法通过遵循任何特殊的冥想方法来遇见自己。只有安静地内观你所知的自己，你才能体验到自己的实相，体验到当下的自己和多维“内在本体”之间的关联。

一定要有一种意愿、一种默许、一种渴望。如果你不花时间去检视自己的主观状态，那么就不能抱怨有那么多答案仿佛都在躲着你。你不能把举证的责任丢给别人，不能期待什么人或老师来证明你自己存在的正当性。这样一个过程必然会让你落入一个接一个的主观陷井。 

当你坐着读这本书的时候，你内在的门户就是开放的。你只要尽可能充分地体验你所知的这一刻——如它具体存在于这房中的样子，或是存在于外面你所在城市街道的样子。想象这一刻的体验扩展至整个地球，然后试着去欣赏你自己的主观经验——它既存在于当下这一刹那，又可跳出这一刹那之外——这种经验通过每一个生灵而得以倍增。

光是这个练习就能开启你的感知力，增强你的觉知并自动扩展你对自己天性的欣赏。

拥有这种扩展能力的“你”，必然远比你原先所想象的自己更有创造力，更具多维性。本书建议的许多小练习，也会帮助你逐渐认识自己的实相，让你直接体验自己灵魂或存有的本质，让你接触到你生命的活力之源。你也许会遇到前世的自己或可能的自己，也许遇不到。你也许会发觉自己正在转换意识层面，也许发觉不了。

但是，大多数读者一定会成功做到我所建议的一些练习。它们并不难，而且在所有人的能力范围之内。

可是，每个读者应该或多或少以一种全新的方式感受自己的活力，并发现扩展之路在他之内打开，那些路是他早先未曾觉察的。这本书的性质、创作与传述方法，本身就应该已经清楚指出了一个事实，即人类拥有的能力比一般所认为的多得多。现在，你们应该明白并不是所有人格都肉体化了。就像这本书，正是由一个不具肉身的人格构思并写作，然后再具体化的，因此你们每个人都能获得更多的能力和交流方法，比通常接受的更多。

我希望这本书多少能为你们每个人引介本属于你自己的“内在多维本体”。

You are not fated to dissolve into All That Is. The aspects of your personality as you presently understand them will be retained. All That Is is the creator of individuality, not the means of its destruction.

My own “previous” personalities are not dissolved into me any more than your “past” personalities. All are living and vital. All go their own way. Your “future” personalities are as real as your past ones. After a while, this will no longer concern you. Out of the reincarnational framework, there is no death as you think of it.

My own frame of reference, however, is no longer focused on my reincarnational existences. I have turned my attention in other directions.

Since all lives are simultaneous, all happening at once, then any separation is a psychological one. I exist as I am while my reincarnational lives—in your terms—still exist. Yet now I am not concerned with them, but turn my concentration into other areas of activity.

Personality changes whether it is within a body or outside of it, so you will change after death as you change before it. In those terms, it is ridiculous to insist upon remaining as you are now, after death. It is the same as a child saying: “I am going to grow up, but I am never going to change the ideas that I have now.” The multidimensional qualities of the psyche allow it to experience an endless realm of dimensions. Experience in one dimension in no way negates existence in another.

You have been trying to squeeze the soul into tight concepts of the nature of existence, making it follow your limited beliefs. The door to the soul is open, and it leads to all the dimensions of experience.

If you think, however, that the self as you know it is the end or summation of yourself, then you also imagine your soul to be a limited entity bounded by its present ventures in one life alone, to be judged accordingly after death on the performance of a few paltry years.

In many ways this is a cozy concept, though to some it can be quite frightening with its connotations of eternal damnation. It is far too tidy an idea, however, to hint at the rich embellishments that are at the heart of divine creativity. The soul stands both within and without the fabric of physical life as you know it. You are not separated from the animals and the rest of existence by virtue of possessing an eternal inner consciousness. Such a consciousness is present within all living beings, and in all forms.

I titled this chapter “A Goodbye and an Introduction.” The good-bye is my own, since I am now finishing this book. The introduction applies to each reader, for I hope that you will now be able to meet yourself face to face with a greater understanding of who and what you are.

I would like, therefore, to introduce you to yourself.

You will not find yourself by running from teacher to teacher, from book to book. You will not meet yourself through following any particular specialized method of meditation. Only by looking quietly within the self that you know can your own reality be experienced, with those connections that exist between the present or immediate self and the inner identity that is multidimensional.

There must be a willingness, an acquiescence, a desire. If you do not take the time to examine your own subjective states, then you cannot complain if so many answers seem to elude you. You cannot throw the burden of proof upon another, or expect a man or teacher to prove to you the validity of your own existence. Such a procedure is bound to lead you into one subjective trap after another.

As you sit reading this book, the doorways within are open. You have only to experience the moment as you know it as fully as possible — as it exists physically within the room, or outside in the streets of the city in which you live. Imagine the experience present in one moment of time over the globe, then try to appreciate the subjective experience of your own that exists in the moment and yet escapes it —and this multiplied by each living individual.

This exercise alone will open your perceptions, increase your awareness and automatically expand your appreciation of your own nature.

The “you” who is capable of such expansion must be a far more creative and multidimensional personality than you earlier imagined. Many of the suggested small exercises given earlier in the book will also help you become acquainted with your own reality, will give you direct experience with the nature of your own soul or entity, and will put you in contact with those portions of your being from which your own vitality springs. You may or may not have your own encounters with past reincarnational selves or probable selves. You may or may not catch yourselves in the act of changing levels of consciousness.

Certainly most of my readers, however, will have success with some of the suggested exercises. They are not difficult, and they are within the capabilities of all.

Each reader, however, should in one way or another sense his own vitality in a way quite new to him, and find avenues of expansion opening within himself of which he was earlier unaware. The very nature of this book, the method of its creation and delivery, in themselves should clearly point out the fact that human personality has far more abilities than those usually ascribed to it. By now you should understand that all personalities are not physically materialized. As this book was conceived and written by a nonphysical personality, and then made physical, so do each of you have access to greater abilities and methods of communication than those usually accepted.

I hope that in one way or another this book of mine has served to give each of you an introduction to the inner multidimensional identity that is your own.
