The cemetery, often perceived as a mere resting place for the deceased, actually harbors a much more complex and profound dimension, an esoteric dimension that eludes our usual understanding. Behind the physical appearances lies an invisible world, both enchanting and diabolical, where spiritual reality and dark forces intertwine.

Death Outside of Christ.

When a person dies without having received Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, the transition to the afterlife takes a dark turn. After the funeral ceremonies, the body is placed in the coffin, but the soul does not simply dissipate into oblivion. During the rituals, this soul is present, sitting on the coffin, aware of what is happening around it.

Occultists, sorcerers, and practitioners of esotericism can perceive this soul, thereby witnessing a vibrant spiritual world, even though most of the living are ignorant of this reality.

The Reception of Souls in the Cemetery World.

Once the ceremonies are over, the living return home, leaving the dead in what appears to be eternal silence. Yet, on a spiritual level, the soul is welcomed by census agents who identify it as a newcomer to the realm of the dead. This world, which appears as modern cities even more attractive than our tangible reality, is a deceptive mirror meant to allure newly deceased souls.

During a seven-day period, the soul resides in this dimension, observing and acclimating to this new environment. At the end of this period, it receives a “robe of departure,” a symbolic garment that triggers a propulsion process into the astral world, a passage into the abode of the dead.

The Division of the Abode of the Dead.

Beyond this passage, the soul finds itself in the abode of the dead, a place divided into several sections, depending on the life it led. This place is not homogeneous; it is organized into three distinct districts:

1. The District of Slaves: Reserved for those who, during their life, served dark powers without fully realizing it. Their torment comes from the late realization of their servitude.
2. The Furnace of Lucifer-Satan: This section is reserved for those who knowingly embraced darkness and engaged in evil. Their punishment is of unbearable intensity because they deliberately chose to turn away from the light.
3. The Prisons of the Abode of the Dead: Here, one finds cells where individuals who pledged allegiance to demonic forces, such as Satanists, sorcerers, and occultists, are imprisoned. They are chained, unable to escape their fate, with a lock on their mouth, symbolizing their inability to seek forgiveness or redemption.

A Reality, Not a Metaphor.

It is essential to understand that what is described here is not a mere metaphor or allegory, but a spiritual reality with profound repercussions. The Scriptures and spiritual testimonies convey these truths to warn and guide those who are still alive. Death is not an end but a passage to a new existence where the choices made on earth determine the eternal condition of each soul.

The cemetery, far from being a mere resting place, thus becomes a border between two worlds: that of the living and that of the dead. This chapter highlights the necessity of living in the light of Christ, seeking redemption, and avoiding the traps of darkness.

In this context, it is crucial to raise awareness about the importance of an authentic commitment to God, to prevent our souls from being trapped in the esoteric dimension of the cemetery…
