In the second part of the article on this topic, we discussed why punishments do not exist. Everything that happens to you is a choice of the soul.
It remains to understand why the soul chooses negative experience, if it could have taken an easier and more favorable path.
We will discuss this today.
Who makes the choice — the soul or ourselves
Such a question may imply that you believe someone (in this case, the soul) makes decisions for you. For many people, this is exactly the case – their soul makes decisions for the person.
The simplest example confirming this statement is the moment of a person’s death.
How many people do you know who choose the moment of death from the perspective of the personality, the ego?
The soul makes the decision, and very often this is not connected to the human “I”. From spiritual/channeling sources, it is known that at the moment of (clinical) death, the human soul (the small part of the soul incarnated in the body) is asked whether it is ready to leave. This question is asked three times.
One can answer “no” three times and return back. There are many such testimonies from people who have experienced clinical death. You can find confirmation of this in the abundance of literature on the relevant topic.
From the spirit’s point of view, exiting life through suicide is no different (not condemned) from any other exit.
The soul knows everything – including all options for its exit from life in the body, including through suicide.
There is a lot of literature on this topic, for example, books by Kryon, Sal Rachele.

“Evaluating choice” and the separateness of the ego
Any action is honorable. In higher dimensions, choice is respected and no one can judge what is “right” or “wrong.”
Evaluation and judgment are properties of your ego. The ego is that part of your human self that believes it is separate from God.
At the moment of incarnation (“disconnection from the divine”), the soul receives a trauma.
Imagine a divine soup in which everything vibrates at the level of a higher dimension, where everything is one, with no separation. This Source/Absolute/God-Mother-Father (your word) decided to know itself.
To do this, it separated twelve parts from itself, which began to explore. Each of these parts continued to branch off (separate itself into new parts).
The moment when you were one with everything and were first separated is the primal trauma or root cause. The lower these branched-off parts descend, the stronger the feeling that you are isolated, disconnected (from the whole/oneness) – the stronger the “sense of the root cause.”
There were real reasons why souls could not return (ascend).
The physical body dies. First, the astral body dissolves, and within nine days, the other subtle bodies.
“Ideally,” the causal body should return to the Parent fragment of the soul and then ascend higher from the soul. But for certain reasons, this did not happen.
The trace of the primal trauma (root cause) remains, so the ego always feels separate.
To cope with the ego, it is necessary to establish a connection with your soul and build your vertical. The more you are in the vertical, the weaker the “uncontrollability” of the ego.

Soul and Morality. How Conscience Differs from the Whisper of the Soul
Conscience is based on moral and ethical principles. It is unclear who instills these moral and ethical principles in you.
Conscience is not always the whisper of the soul, although it too speaks quietly.
The soul does not operate with concepts of morality and ethics, of right and wrong.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to incarnate as a rapist, and the next time as the one who is raped. Or to incarnate as someone who was brutally killed, and then as someone who brutally killed.
This is possible because the soul needs both experiences. Each time you gain some experience for yourself, you become wiser and more mature.
For the same reason (from the perspective of the value of experience), the soul cannot condemn suicide. Religion provides the judgment. For the same reason, abortion cannot be condemned.
You can always come to an agreement with the soul. The soul of an unborn child is in the subtle world.
Specialized literature notes that simply being nearby (an unincarnated soul) is already a bringing of energy to Earth.
Many souls make exactly this contract: they cannot incarnate, or they incarnate and die immediately.
For people, this is a tragedy, but not for the souls that are “there.” For them, each such occasion is a celebration (a celebration of the opportunity to “touch” in any way).
The soul is what animates the body. People without a soul cannot exist by definition.

Parallel Realities. The Moment When One of Them Becomes Dominant
In dreams, you see alternative and parallel realities. At one moment, the soul undergoes experiences not only on Earth.
An example from Jason Estes:
You are in a state of choice: one part of you wants to go left, the other – right. This is how the phenomenon of parallel realities can be described.
At such moments, there are two parallel selves – two parallel realities. The choice you make fixes the reality that is dominant at that moment.
Think about how many choices you make in a day.
Around people who are stuck in doubt, a huge number of parallel realities form, among which they rush about (being unable to choose, not feeling their own power).
According to Jason Estes, in November 2020, all such parallel (alternative) lines merged into one, creating a feeling of purity of space.
This is the so-called “unmapped territory,” where much depends on the choice of humanity as a whole.
What was tearing many people apart from side to side dissolved, merged into one.
Essentially, you get the opportunity to cancel the past with a single click and start with a clean slate.
One of the many parallel realities may be the strongest for you. This happens because you have been feeding this version of reality with your attention (energy) for a long time.
At the level of higher dimensions, everything happens simultaneously; time does not exist there. All different variants of choices are in the Now, they are all accessible from the soul level.
When you focus your attention on the chosen (desired) line, you transmit (invest) your energy there. You continue to feed the chosen reality with your attention, and at some point, it happens to you.
In other words, one of the parallel realities becomes the main (dominant) one for you as a result of the energy invested in it.
For the same reason, people who have invested in negativity for years cannot instantly change their habitual way of thinking. They fall back into it again and again because they have put a lot of energy into it.
They also have to, among other things, rewrite the biochemistry of their body. This is hard work, but it is possible.

So, let’s summarize. The soul knows absolutely everything and agrees to any choices, which is fixed in the postulate of free will and choice. You, as a personality, are endowed with the freedom to choose.
However, the soul resolves many issues without your participation (for example, the moment of death).
What you evaluate from the perspective of the personality as punishment, the soul does not view in that way because experience is important to it.
The soul, rather, asks the question: was the experience useful or lived in vain (when the pearl of wisdom was not extracted from it).
Any situation (including a negative one) contains a pearl of wisdom within itself.
A person either takes (unpacks) this pearl of wisdom and continues on their path, or remains in the same place (for example, continues to dwell in negativity and resentment).
Have you already understood what pearl of experience lies hidden in your negative experiences? We would be glad if you share in the comments what you have come to!
