INSPIRATIONAL | THE HEREAFTER BEAUTIFULLY EXPLAINED
In a
mother's womb, were two babies, engaged in conversation.
The one
asked the other: "Do you
believe in life after delivery?"
The
other replied: "Of
course! There has to be something after delivery. It may be that we are here to
prepare ourselves for what will follow later."
"Nonsense!" says the other. "There is no life after
delivery! What would that life be?"
"Well,
I can’t say exactly, but there will probably be more light there, than here.
And we will probably walk with our legs, use our hands, eat with our
mouths…."
The
first baby says: "That is
absurd! Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? How ridiculous you
are! …The umbilical cord supplies nutrition. Life after delivery is to be
excluded."
The
other baby responded: "I
think there is something beyond this world of the womb, and maybe it is
different than what is here."
The
first replies: "No one
has ever come back from there! Delivery is the end of life, and in the
after-delivery, there is nothing but darkness and anxiety and it takes us
nowhere. Nowhere at all!"
"Well,
whatever is to be, will be," says
the other, "but certainly
we will see our mother and she will take care of us."
"Mother???"
…Do you believe in mother? Where is she now?"
The
baby responds: "She is
all around us. It is in her that we live. Without her, there would not be this
world of ours."
"I
don't see her, so it's only logical that she doesn't exist!"
To
which the other replied, "Sometimes
when you are silent, you can hear her, you can perceive her. I believe there is
mother – loving and caring. And I believe there is a reality after delivery and
we are here to prepare ourselves for that reality."
