THE HIGHER PLANES OF SPIRIT
The Higher Planes of Spirit (part 3)
It is said that there are twelve spirit planes which surrounds the earth, each progressively brighter, yet even the higher planes are places of continued learning and of greater service. This is spoken of in the following excerpt from "Life Beyond The Veil":
...I noticed near the border of the ninth sphere, a large lake bordered with forests, with buildings spread out among the trees. I asked my guide what colony or settlement it was, and he told me that a long time ago a difficulty arose in those arriving here in this sphere from other regions. While there are some who progress evenly in all their faculties, others do not develop all of their faculties equally in their progress. These are highly developed spirits whose development brings them here to the tenth sphere, yet before they can proceed they must develop their negligent aspects in the same proportion as their advanced aspects. This is because of the much more complexity of perfection prevailing here than you understand on Earth. These are still of the ninth sphere in some portion of their character, while perhaps of the tenth sphere in others. They are in some ways to progressed in power and personality for the ninth, yet unable to proceed to the next sphere where their inferior aspects are not sufficient. Thus they abide here on the borderland, where they work at their own progress, while continuing to help others within the spheres below.
-end excerpt-
Of the highest and brightest of these spirit planes, we know very little, for life upon those higher planes is too far removed from our own for us to understand while in flesh. While those within the very highest planes have long since gone beyond the need to take upon themselves the cumbersome expression of flesh, yet they continue to serve the plan of the Father, by using their greater light and understanding to guide those throughout all the planes below them. Since greater learning always entails greater service, ones with the intermediate planes are often sent into the lower regions to help ones who are asking for light, yet they are always guided and protected by those within the highest spirit planes. The general rule is that ones can see and go into all the planes which exist below them, yet each has only fleeting knowledge of that which lie yet above them, until they begin to experience it directly.
In most cases, those who we might call our "guardian angels", who appear to us on Earth, are ones from these spirit planes who are sent to Earth on a specific mission. They are usually ones from the brighter planes who understand how to lower their vibrations so that their form might be seen by the human eye. Yet they are not concerned only with the Earth, for their efforts are also directed to all of the lesser planes.
