Do not go toward the light. That seems wrong to most people, I am guessing. You often hear near death experiences of the light at the end of the tunnel, or meeting beings of light, whom they believed to be angels and even Jesus Christ. You will find God in the darkness.
Look at the brilliant minds, who have died, like Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla, Stephen Hawking, and others, who do not believe in God like all the people belonging to religions of faith. They were smart enough to know something most of us do not. What if God is in the darkness? What if truth is in nonexistence or in the void? I am continuing to experience a blessing or awakening where I have had the most blissful and heavenly experiences alone in the darkness. Here is backlink to another post about finding light in the darkness.
The valley of death we all must walk through like in Psalm 23. If heaven is all these saved people, who are similar, that would be so dull to me. I want to sit at the table on the other side with interesting people like Steve Jobs, Friedrich Nietzsche, Charles Bukowski, Joseph Conrad, Mark Twain, and others. I also believe Jesus Christ and Buddha will be at that table, too. People must know that everyone comes into the light, eventually.
Do Not Go Toward the Light Is Esoteric
Monotheistic beliefs have limits, conditions, and rules, but the majority gravitate toward them. Even if in the light, find God in the darkness. The message is better when there is something to look forward to after this life. The message of hope feels better than one of fire and brimstone. Those kinds of sermons or speeches are direct in what is contradictory to religious dogma and teaching. Here is another post I wrote about the last love in my life must be from God.
Sins of the flesh are truly a threat to us going to heaven, and most shared by the male hierarchy of priests, bishops, cardinals, and laity of the Catholic Church. Catholicism does not have divine feminine except in people like Mother Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, Saints like St. Teresa of Avila, and even Mary Magdelene. Still the masculinity of God as the Father is still the belief in many religious practices of today. Protestantism has adopted and ordained women as ministers and preachers of their church affiliations. Find God in the darkness not necessarily the light.
There is some belief that when go toward the light and enter it at or after physical death, you go into a karmic loop of reincarnation. Of course, no one believes that and always believe God is in the light.
