The Big Picture of Life
I recently showed my new book The Big Picture of Life – coauthored with Gary Schwartz PhD and Katta Mapes MA, MEd – to my twin eleven-year old granddaughters.
We discussed that there is much to life than meets the eye. Then we looked at pictures of the Empire State building and a coat of paint.
Why?
Because if all that exists were the height of the Empire State Building, the portion the average human can sense would be the height of a coat of paint.
If you do the math, that means most people detect less than 1/1000 of one percent of reality. I explained to the girls that many of life’s toughest questions and challenges are due to habitually looking at life as though through a tiny pinhole.
I shared that ‘the big picture of life’ was our term to describe the fullness of life. And I told them that sensing more of Life – even a little bit more – is a HUGE key to having a more happy, peaceful, and successful earthly experience.
And then they posed one of the most important questions that can be asked:
‘How can we see more of the big picture of life?’
Can you imagine how much more wonderful our world is becoming and will be as more children – of all ages – learn sensible and evidence-based answers to this ultra-meaningful question?
There are other ways to term this. Some of the most common are. . .
- How can I become enlightened?
- How can I awaken to All That Is?
- How can I see the Light?
- How can I get happy feet? (this was a phrase from comedian Steve Martin that didn’t really catch on in theological circles)
Dr. Schwartz and I wrote the book Greater Reality Living. The term ‘greater reality’ is our preferred way of describing of the totality of reality. The phrase ‘greater reality living’ invites people to consider how they might live differently when they really know that bodily death is not the end of life.
As such, another way to frame the question ‘How can we see more of the big picture of life?’ would be ‘How might we best live now that life after death has been definitively demonstrated scientifically?’
Before I share ways you can perceive more of the fullness of life, here are some of the wonderful benefits that accompany an expanded worldview. (Benefit #1 has now been clearly shown in replicated, multicenter, controlled, and peer-review published scientific studies at the University of Arizona. Benefits #2 – 9 can be inferred with a very high degree of confidence given the collective scientific, clinical, and experiential evidence.)
Benefits of seeing more of the big picture of life include more deeply knowing that. . .
1. You and everyone else continue living after your human form dies.
2. You do not really ‘lose’ loved ones after their earthly bodies perish. You can reunite with them when you change worlds, and continue a different relationship with them now.
3. You are an integral part of Source Energy / the Light right now.
4. You receive assistance and guidance from sources variously described as angels, guides, master teachers, and higher energies.
5. There may be an exquisite timing to, and meaning behind, your life’s events.
6. You can have many and, perhaps, simultaneous life experiences.
7. You create how heavenly or hellish your life feels by your predominant thoughts, words and deeds.
8. You are interconnected in sacred ways with other people, animals, nature, and all of life.
9. You have special purposes for experiencing being on this planet at this time.
Does that motivate you to learn more?
In Greater Reality Living, Dr. Schwartz and I created the L.I.V.E.S. formula to describe our recommendations for seeing more of the greater reality and living accordingly. (A similar set of suggestions for ages 10 – 16 is shared in The Big Picture of Life.) You’ll want to read one or both if you are serious about improving your earthly experience.
Five keys to greater reality living – Learn, Internalize, Vitalize, Enjoy, Serve – can be remembered by the acronym L.I.V.E.S.:
- Learn the evidence that life continues after your human form dies.
- Internalize the great news that you are a forever being.
- Vitalize and balance yourself holistically.
- Enjoy the many benefits of greater reality living.
- Serve others to help them – and yourself – and make the world a better place.
Learning and applying this new information for awakened living requires some time. But experiencing heaven on earth in new and profoundly deep ways is easily worth it. If life is like a game, then knowing and showing your highest self is the master game.
In addition to the books listed above, the resources below – free articles and inexpensive transformational audio products – to assist your path toward more enlightened living. (I’ve listed the articles instead of including all the information in the article so it’s more clear and concise.)
1. Learn the evidence: see articles #1 and 60 at SoulProof.com
2. Internalize the great news: depending on your history and current life status, different articles may be more important. The goal is to help you heal old wounds, release needless fears, and upgrade erroneous teachings that can block internalizing the great news of life after death and all the benefits. For example . . .
a. If you are a bereaved parent, article #2 will help you begin transmuting your pain and suffering into higher energy emotions and honoring your child.
b. If a loved one’s body (your loved one him or herself can’t really die) perished by suicide or murder, see article #4 or 27.
c. If you were mentally, physically, and/or sexually abused see article #49.
d. If a beloved pet’s earthly shell died and your optimal unfoldment is hampered by sadness and loneliness, see article #22. (Some people are closer to their pets than most humans.)
e. If you aren’t currently facing difficulties such as those above, see articles # 9, 13, 17, 20, 25, 29, 42, 46, 49, 59, and 67.
f. Audio-products to help you more deeply internalize all this great news include: Holistic Breathing Technique, Pre-Birth Planning and/or Past Life Regression.
3. Vitalize yourself holistically:
a. Depending on what imbalances you are addressing, see articles # 12, 26, 32, 33, 37, 38, 40, 41, 43, 51, 54, 64, and 66.
b. To gain greater clarity about how you can fine-tune yourself in body, mind, and spirit, access your inner wisdom with the Ask Your Soul technique.
c. The Love, Acceptance, and Forgiveness technique can help you release accumulated negative emotions.
4. Enjoy the many benefits: steps #1 – 3 and 4 can help you enjoy the nine benefits listed above more fully.
5. Serve others and yourself:
a. article #21 to learn how to identify and fulfill your soul’s missions
b. #45 to consider how your life review would be if you passed on today and how you can improve it now
c. #50 encourages you to consciously choose action over discouragement
d. #58 helps you not take life’s challenges too seriously
e. #67 helps remind you that all people are interconnected and part of one big family.
I hope this article helps you more deeply know and show that this brief earthly experience is a totally safe, meaningful, and magnificent adventure amidst forever.
