Foreword
Most spiritual orders speak of a version of Heaven, or nirvana—a place where there is peace, unconditional love, light, and no pain. Perhaps nirvana is a place. Even more, perhaps it is a condition—the condition of knowing oneself in totality as a soul, as a being of light, a part of the all-inone consciousness and at the same time unique. Perhaps our overarching mission is to love into being the creation of Heaven on Earth. How? By bringing this awareness through to our incarnated state—bringing the beauty, the contentment of full awareness into physical form through our thoughts, emotions, words, dreams, and actions. It is my sincere hope that this book will assist you in seeing the vastness of reality, in experiencing the magnificence of self, in building your own kingdom of awareness during your earthly life so that the next plane of existence you inhabit will be as Marilou describes: a place of joyful reunions, peace, health, light, and unconditional love.
