We are eternal...all of us...no religion has the key to eternal life, they just point the way
Salvation....a man made word
Grains of sand....ground down mountains
People may pass on, but thats just a body/vehicle and they are still important because they have a soul/entity within that can teach others
Distant memories are carried with the soul/entity as comes round again...thats why some people can do things and others cant...inherent memory...but once we have seen someone do something...we carry that memory forwards with us to the next incarnation
Judge not, lest ye be judged yourself so saith the Master...i dont always hit that myself🤣
