I have previously read and reviewed the author's book "Remarkable Healings". This is another masterful book well worth reading.
Dr. Modi gains her information by interviewing her subjects in a regressed state (under hypnosis). The subconscious mind (which is our soul) contains all the memories from the beginning of time - if time has a beginning (my remark).
Modi's subjects state that God always was and is (this supports my previous remark), and that the universe started with God. He/It is a "big, golden orb of energy". But at first there was only a "vast black void". Two particles in space rub together and create a sound and spark of light. The spark begins to grow and divide into many parts.
God was made up of individual consciousnesses, which initially felt peaceful, harmonious and content, but as the ball of God was growing and expanding, Its vibrations became faster, and parts of God thrown out randomly got lost in the void. Thus God and Its parts began to feel lonely, empty and sad. Some consciousnesses began to feel anxious and fearful, as they did not want to get lost in the void too. Eventually, the parts of God collectively decided to create by releasing the ever-growing energy in an orderly fashion. God decided to let some of the energy out with protection.
The various consciousnesses grew to different sizes and colours, and their powers differed in degree. God desired to create so every part could grow to be equal in size and power and could evolve to perfection.
However, a black energy from the void hit the ball of Lucifer, and it gradually became black. His ball and other balls influenced by him did not support creation. They passed through the outer edge of the ball of God and became the "demons". They were not created as angels, as we previously have been led to believe, and did not take any part in the creation. Lucifer did not want other parts of God to grow and become as large as he was (he was one of the larger balls). He wanted to become the "big shot" and become God.
After Lucifer and his followers had left, God began to create, the order of creation being masters, angels, universes, plants, animals and "rational-thinking beings" i.e. humans and other beings to inhabit Earth and other planets. Everything is explained in great detail, including the reasons for the order in which the various beings and so on were created.
Diagrams show the structure of Heaven/God, the subjects describing two models - the circular and the pyramidal model. There are further diagrams showing the creation of the original spark of God, vibrational sound from the original spark, expanding wavelengths in God, etc, etc.
Humans and other rational beings would be responsible for the growth of God. Through our innumerable incarnations, we would learn and grow, and as we grew, God would grow. (This confirms the statements of Abraham, as channelled by Esther Hicks, who constantly assures/assure - Abraham is a collective consciousness- us that everything we do is extremely important as we contribute to the growth of God/All-That-Is). The soul's connection with God is eternal and we will never be separated from God. The souls are told "in your solitude you will know I am with you so you will never forget who you are". He told them "Let love always be your guide".
Souls were created in groups. There were differences between them according to how they felt about their creation. This resulted in a stratification of souls. Some, who felt afraid and confused, sank to the bottom of the godhead (see explanation of "godhead" later). Those who were happy yet not joyful ended in the middle layer. Those who were joyful (even though some were smaller souls) floated to the top. We can learn an important lesson from this.
There is a chapter about planning in Heaven for a life on Earth and one about memories of prenatal life and birth. We are told "From conception on, the fetus experiences and records all the feelings and thoughts of the mother as its own, including depression, anxiety, anger, guilt, rejection and physical pain".
There are many further inspiring chapters including one on "First incarnation on a planet", these incarnations mostly being on Venus, which like Neptune and Uranus, was closer to the Light (God) and had faster vibrations.
Again, as advised by Abraham, among others, we are told that it is important for us to experience joy and buoyancy as much as possible very day. We need to focus on bringing everybody into oneness on Earth. "If you ever get lost, look inside yourself and you will reconnect with your purpose. All the information is hidden inside your soul. Pray and meditate and you will be on the right path."
We are told about a special chair found in Heaven that will connect us to the higher reality almost instantly. This chair will be on Earth in the future.
We should pray in an affirmative way and at the end request that whatever we have asked for be given to anybody who needs it. Breathing is the most direct connection with the Light and God.
Godheads, which I have had some difficulty in wholly understanding, are pathways to and from God. They are similar to created souls, and are discrete and separate entities, distinct from one another. "A godhead associated with a pyramid may populate dozens of universes. Souls from one godhead may have lives in ten to fourteen different dimensions at the same time."
A final important chapter describes methods to transform ourselves and our planet. Here Dr. Modi gives us her advice on how best to live our lives and develop. This chapter comprises a prayer and meditation for the Violet Flame, which is an extremely valuable tool for us to heal and transform ourselves and our planet and "even the whole universe". The Violet Flame can transmute and transmute the dark entities and all that comes with them. In time it can dissipate all our negative thoughts and feelings.
In all, I feel this to be an absolutely valuable book, equal or perhaps superior to her first book. It is simply and clearly written, so it can be understood by all. There a few typos, grammatical mistakes, etc, but very few as compared to the amount of such errors in the many other books I read and review!
My only reservation is that in the first chapters there are many repetitious accounts of the process of creation, worded in practically the same manner. And as a whole, as I think I stated in my review of the author's previous book, all Modi's subjects seem to express themselves in exactly the same way as Modi herself! This seems a little strange, but does not detract from the clarity of the book's message.
Some of the explanations regarding creation may seem somewhat simplistic, so we might wonder if they are true, but on the other hand all the other of Modi's statements and items of information ring true as a bell. This is a wise book, if a book can be wise, and I recommend it strongly.
