The Three Stages of Life

You are born on earth in order to experience love. You need to breathe in the air we call love. You need to breathe the air of love from your mother and father. You should go through everything in life while being supplied with the air of love. Once you are born as a baby in a family, you need to follow a path similar to a sine curve, going up along the curve and coming down. You are born as a baby, and you go back to being a baby again. When this takes place, what is about to happen? You will detach yourself from the world of the second womb, and connect yourself to the respiratory organs of the third world of love. You leave behind your loving parents and siblings, and enter the world of love that is in total harmony with the original being of the great cosmos, God.

When we come to know that God’s love is eternal and unchanging, from our experience with human love, we can deduce the logic of eternal life. We conclude that by centering on true love, we live for eternity.

First, we pass through our mother’s womb; then through the world of air. At last, we enter the spirit world and are liberated there. This is our final destination. This is the kingdom of heaven, centered on God.

A baby in its mother’s womb breathes, but through what? It is through the umbilical cord which is connected to the mother’s body. However, we know that the baby is also connected to the second world, the world of air. After its time in the womb, the baby pushes out and everything behind it is destroyed. At the moment the baby cries for the first time, its windpipe and nostrils, designed for breathing air, embrace that world of air. The nostrils are the wonderful supply route. The baby appears in this universe and meets its Mother Earth. Then, it begins to live on elements supplied through its mouth.

In the next world, the earthly world, you live in an air pocket, not a water pocket. When you are living in the air pocket, you need to prepare your five spiritual sense organs, corresponding to the ears, eyes, nose and so on, through which you can absorb love when you are in the heavenly world.

The very moment we think of as the hour of death is actually our birth into our third life.             - SMM

About the painting: As you follow the line of the sine wave, from the umbilical cord to the silver cord, you will witness the special moments in the life of this baby girl until the moment of her death as a grandmother. As the silver cord is severed, she flies into the bright and beautiful spirit world. She becomes young again, but this time for eternity. Some people describe entering the spirit world as flying over a canyon into a new and beautiful place. The physical and spirit worlds are interconnected.
