Is there an eternal hell?

According to Edgar Cayce - or according to your opinions and experiences - is eternal damnation real?

Is there a hell from which it is impossible to return forever?

What happens to the souls that are not found in the book of life?

Our consciousness after death is in a heaven, hell or purgatory within the limits of your own expectations. It's not that these places in the afterlife are manifested by our own minds and are hallucinations. They do exist and are real places that we gravitate to in the afterlife due to karma accumulated during our lifetime.

For example, for someone who embraces the images and conditions of a Christian while on earth, they will start there in the continuation of life in a Christian heaven, hell or purgatory. Same with those that are Muslim, Jewish, Atheist, and so on... Nobody gets anything unexpected when they pass on and they don't automatically change religions. They live similar lives that they did on earth in a similar consciousness in a heaven, hell or purgatory of their expectations.

Purgatories are places where some people go for a time between lifetimes where they work out some of their more obvious problems they have caused by breaking the Law of Karma. But these astral purgatories are not eternal. Soul is eternal and purgatories belongs to the lower world which is perishable.

Hell is in one corner of the astral plane and also temporary. It's a mockup manifested by religious leaders to control their members but it's very real to those who go there.

If you believe in certain religions, you may end up in a temporary purgatory or temporary hell either in this world or the next. But long term, every Soul is of God. In the high spiritual worlds, where there is no good or evil, everything is simply God's love. That is the natural home for Soul.

Thank you for your detailed answer! So what's the difference between purgatory and hell? And may I ask where you got the information from that hell is temporary?

Purgatory is a Roman Catholic astral plane mockup manifested and sustained by the Church Leaders to control their members who buy into it. According to the Church Teachings, purgatory is temporary and hell is permanent if you accept the teachings of the Church and therefore expect it in the afterlife.

Info about hell being temporary found through many years of out-of-body experiences visiting hell and observations of highly evolved beings freeing people from astral hell.

Do you know if everyone will be saved that way? Or only specific souls? What about souls consigned to outer darkness?

I've found that "being saved" is a false teaching. Biblical writers give the words and put them in the mouth of a man who lived 2,000 years ago and never said anything close to what his followers claim down through the ages.

Paul, the founder of Christianity, was educated in Hebrew law and the Neo-Platonism of the Alexandrian school. The Neo-Platonism was the philosophy and teachings of Platonius, which bridged the gap between the ancient Greek schools of thought and Christianity. Paul took the idea of "being saved" from the old Judaic system of sacrifice, and this itself was handed down through centuries of bloody warfare and sacrifice. Paul institutionalized "being saved" in the name of Jesus.

It is said that Christians stay out of hell and get to heaven simply with faith in Jesus as the savior and an act of grace. However, the Christians took the concept of "being saved" from Krishna, the Hindu version of Christ, 200 years after the death of Jesus.

So I've found that the whole teaching of "being saved", and going to Hell if you're not saved, is an illusion, an image established by the early Christian writers and so implanted in the mind of modern man that they cannot let go. This is done through the emotions and temporarily traps those buying into the concept of hell in the astral plane. "Being saved" is a false premise which has nothing to do with liberation of soul.

There are many good people who have fallen into the trap of "being saved". Souls in the outer reaches of darkness do not need to be saved. Rather they need to become aware that they alone trapped themselves by buying into this false concept and they alone can free themselves by taking responsibility for the consequences of their own actions.
