Children and the Subtle World

More and more children are conscious about the Subtle World. Some of them are able to see subtle forms. When they find mockery and indifference from adults, they slowly suppress their visions.

From a young age children must be told about the Subtle World, the human soul, and the immortality of the soul. Death must be presented as it is in reality: leaving the body and becoming aware of another dimension which is more free and beautiful, providing a good life was lived on earth.

They must learn from a young age about the Laws of Karma and Reincarnation because these are two fundamental laws which will make their life much more beautiful, orderly, and constructive.

We will try always to do our best when we know about the Law of Karma. We will always strive to live a better life in order to have a better incarnation. The Law of Reincarnation will plant in us the hope of the future; it will expand our horizon and make us understand the events occurring on earth.

Children rarely learn from the civil laws. Given any opportunity, or if they think they can escape from the consequences of their misdeeds, they will repeat their mistakes.

The Laws of Karma and Reincarnation will not be taught to them as laws of punishment and retribution, but as laws which execute justice in all aspects of life and open all gates of opportunity for them to strive for a better life. The Law of Karma and Reincarnation will not only change the behavior of a child but will also transform his consciousness and his being. When a law is part of one's consciousness, he does not need reinforcement because he will always act according to what his consciousness suggests, according to the Laws of Karma and Reincarnation.

Children must know that whatever they think, speak, and do are just like seeds planted in the ground: the flowers or fruits of the particular seeds will correspond exactly to those seeds. If they think good things for themselves and for others, good things will come to them. They will know that all that is beautiful is so because someone thought in beauty, spoke in beauty, and acted in beauty. If we want to have a beautiful life in the future, we must plant seeds for it.

All these ideas can be given to children in the form of stories, movies, and fairy tales, instead of filling their minds with the images of crimes and violence.


Children have more impressions from the Subtle Worlds than adults. When people speak to them about the Subtle Worlds, these impressions will awaken and prepare them to accept the information. They will accept the stories of the Subtle Worlds, not because their reasoning and logic is as yet undeveloped but because they unconsciously remember certain events from the Subtle Worlds. They will love to listen to stories about it.

Children love fairy tales because fairy tales are the things which remind them most closely of the Subtle Worlds. Some adults may reject such stories or information, not because they do not have subjective memories but because their logic and reasoning have petrified their consciousness.

Children love dreams. They love visions. They love the future. They love the future because, in reality, they know that they have a future. Those who remember or feel or are impressed by the memory of the Subtle World know that that was their future; that they once again will have a future when they pass away -- a future in the Subtle Worlds and a future on earth.

Children must be encouraged to speak about their experiences or their memories of the Subtle World. The dreams, visions, and psychic experiences of children will open a new road of research into psychic realms, and much guidance can be given to children if they are free to talk about their experiences. From childhood the ties with the Subtle World must be strengthened.

It is imperative, especially at this time, to teach children about the journey of the soul toward the Subtle World and the Fiery World, and as much as possible to give them the general ideas given by the Sages in all ages.

Also, a child's life and consciousness will be balanced by the reality of physical life. Such things as sports activities, domestic work, gardening, the study of natural history and world events, the construction of various items, and work on mechanical devices keep the minds of children balanced. We must remember that children must meet life realistically and keep contacts with the Subtle World in the same realistic spirit.
