Life And Existence by Hier(m): 12:00pm On Aug 13, 2023
While being asleep, we still sees ourselves probably doing one thing or the other, usually in the form of dream.

Basically man has a soul, the soul is responsible for feelings. There are time when I have dreams and I just while dreaming wish it was a dream. Lot of instances, that's the best description I can give, there are those who dream and they see things chasing them and while still dreaming, they wish they were dreaming.

Firstly, their mind wishes they are dreaming and at the same time, they see themselves, so we have personality (the person they see in their dreams) and they feel fear and all that, which is the mind.

The person they see in their dream is themselves, but it is not their body, evidently the body is asleep and still at rest, but here is someone else, which I can best call the human spirit. The breath we breathe is because our body is still in union with our spirit. So when that spirit leaves, the body seize to have what keeps it working, so it stops living because the human spirit can not dwell there anymore, but can spirits die.

Firstly, if the body while still asleep, and at rest can see itself (the spirit) doing other things, evidently, when the body is disconnected, the spirit continues it own life with a mind of its own.

That would take us back to creation and judgement

Were we created
Secondly, is there going to be judgement

On creation, we have to answer the question of did we just happen based on chances or there was a mind behind us

On chances, chances deals with probability, likelihood, possibility, trail and error

Before there can be perfection, there must be knowledge and without a mind, there was no knowledge

For instance, we go to school, and there we learn how to read and write, but without learning, how can we read and write

So let's assume you were given a sowing machine, we all know how to pedder the machine, but to sow, it is learnt, you can't sow a clothe by accident and it looks good from the first trial. It is learnt, so knowledge first, then creation. So there must be a knowledge (mind) before there is creation.

For instance, the phone we hold might be launched a few years back, before the day of launching, there was a mind, knowledge was there.

Just take for instance, a block, used in building, it has holes, it can collectively form a shape. And be used in building, but it was all the product of a mind and the holes are for heat regulations.

Now to us, I can't even start there because do we talk about the eyes, it has a function to the body, the nose, the mouth, ear, skin, genitals, legs, all this things, they are even more complex than the block, phone, eyes see, nose smell, ear hears, mouth, heart, liver, testicles, hair, brain, stomach, on and on.

Then we talk about things that are disconnected from the body yet the body needs them, food, water, trees, they all support the body yet, they are not physically attached to the body, do we call this accident. We see what we call association, you bring this and this and it forms this.

So evidently, there must have been a knowledge, hence there was a mind. And that mind created all things.

Now to the creator, who is the creator, the creator has a mind that's all I can say here.

Now I believe I answered the creation or chance question

Now, on the side, I once sat down and asked myself, assuming there was no food on earth 🌍, would people do business. Just imagine we don't get hungry, evidently we would do things to get fun and away from boredom, but somehow, because of the desire for food and all that, we leave our homes and go out, and there we have activities and creativities.

People create things and give their best to make life more meaningful hence the reason for running around

Somehow, I must state that for every creation, there was a reason, phones were created for a purpose, everything has it's purpose, everything, the crude oil, even though it hasn't been discovered, it was there for a reason. But the mind would keep working until those things are discovered and used for what was intended. We would have genius, temperament, gifted minds, gifted hands, inquisitive adventurist who would dare the impossible and would discover something, law of phsyics, etc

So I think I addressed the question of purpose, now, the question of judgement, judgement has to do with destroy and recreate, for instance, we had seen the era of landlines, they used their existence and then the manufacturer decides, let's stop using wired communication, it's too expensive, let's go for wireless communication, we see a sort of reviewing process. Everything gets destroyed, but some get rewarded, some are held as antiques and kept it museum, history books are written for their remembrance, monument are erected to recognize their labour and effort, but everything revolves around obedience. What is obedience to A, might be disobedience to B. A captain at the war front might ask his soldiers not to shoot at a given time, probably because the gunshot might expose their hideout and put their lives at joapardy, if a soldier fails to obey order, and he survives the war, reports would be sent and judgement passed.

Everyone would be rewarded for their obedience to the one who made them. We have everything here on earth that would point us to the creator, but that reminds me, the destroyer won't stop his deception, peace
