It is not after we die that we return to God consciousness...the return is available at any and all times.
It takes due diligence on our part in preparing our self to be lifted into a higher consciousness, as in the discipline of daily meditation. The important point about meditation is there is no one absolute way to meditate. I spent way too many years trying to get that right rather than getting right with God. When I quit trying for the perfect meditation posture, God smiled within me.
The fruits of my meditation rarely come during my meditation...I am seldom lifted into a higher consciousness in plain words. Afterward, however, I often get my "blinding flash of the obvious." It took a way long time for me to accept that, and it probably came when I realized that God does not stand on ceremony. The God of my understanding does not care how I get to him, he just expects me to aim in his direction, he'll do (has done) the rest.
I recall feeling gobsmacked when I realized Heaven is God consciousness. We learn early on that we do not go to Heaven when we die (and then only if we've been good...it is hell if we've been bad) but that Heaven is God consciousness within us/without us right now, the Eternal Now.
Since we live in the reasoning mind world, a period of quiet time daily is essential for us. It is in that quiet time that our Father can (but may not) make contact with us. It is that Source within that maintains our peace of mind, and It is not available on demand.
There...that is the core, the reason why there is only one acceptable...reasonable even...desire, and that is to know God aright. To know God aright is to live in perfect harmony with our own self, with those about us, with our world.
We must ever be prepared for we never know the day or hour the [Father] will appear.
Thank you.
