“We know not what we shall be”; but we may be sure we shall be more, not less, than we were on earth. Our natural experiences (sensory, emotional, imaginative) are only like the drawing, like penciled lines on flat paper. If they vanish in the risen life, they will vanish only as pencil lines vanish from the real landscape, not as a candle flame that is put out but as a candle flame which becomes invisible because someone has pulled up the blind, thrown open the shutters, and let in the blaze of the risen sun.

We are now but a mere reflection of our heavenly existence, a three dimensional finite image of an infinite reality; like viewing a three dimensional hologram of something instead of experiencing the actual thing itself.
So, when we find heaven, we will not be something else, we will be the ultimate manifestation of us, our best and true self. Then we will be experiencing instead of looking at a reflection of experience.
No, our candle will not be dimmer, nor will it be something else. It will become the light so bright that the reality around it is fully illuminated. We will become the light yet will remain the candle.
Becoming the light,

Good Morning Garden 
A gracious comment from the original gardener, Z.
You’re doing great work (as always) on the meditations. This is important stuff for us to read, process into a working understanding of, and circulate.
