Galactica Eternal

By Chris J Berry

Suddenly, by the piano stool, she made out a faint shadow beginning to appear. She stared at it curiously as the familiar features of a little dog gradually began to form. The seconds ticked on, until the spirit of her little dog Tiggle materialized and turned to gaze across at her. In that moment, all the grief Tiffany had felt over his loss vanished.

Chris J Berry

Since writing the first of his books, the author’s main objective adheres to his plan to try and help the creatures and people of our planet. Gazing across the world, nothing seems to change, with conflict the continuing trend on earth. Societies descend into violent confrontation, with factions fragmenting into smaller dependencies rather than seek to unite the nations of our world. Global weather extremes continue to fuel humanitarian crises, destroy food harvests, and desecrate their crop areas. The theme of this twelfth project, The View from Infinity, the sixth in the series A Voyage to Infinity, seeks to expand on the author’s suppositions of what the life beyond offers in the previous books. The introductions in this series, the author hopes, will provide clues that ask us to view life logically and consider the transience of life, our inevitable exit from it, and what that means in terms of the material wealth we strive to generate. Considering those factors establishes one fact—that nothing in the material world belongs to anyone—and poses the question, which then is the real world? He persists in his belief that the demise facing humanity can only be addressed by a united world. Remaining dedicated toward our Maker’s doctrines, the author seeks to abide by his ten laws to guide his life.

Introduction

AS I BEGIN THE introduction to the final book of the ‘A Voyage to Infinity’ series, I pause to reflect back on my entire writing experience. Due to the lack of education, resulting from illness in my early years, the prophecy that I would write books seemed an optimistic one. This directive given to me during a séance I attended back in nineteen fifty nine excited my parents, they becoming increasingly enthusiastic on the prospect. In future years, they encouraged me to embark upon evening classes, during which I eventually achieved modest writing skills. My mother was convinced that sources from beyond were guiding me, sensing from them that it was mine to create the books, and theirs to promote them.

When the time approached that the urge to write became obsessive, it competed with the task of earning a living. However, encouraged by my parents and in particular my mother, a practicing spiritual medium, they persistently reminded me of the directive that had been given to me during that strange séance. What has gradually been confirmed in me since, is the presence of those entities my mother had spoken of, and whom I believe now have dictated the themes of all the books to me.

As far back as the third volume of the Cyannian Trilogy ‘Avataria’, my attempt to change the theme of any book resulted in the sudden absence of inspiration. It was not until I conceded to an overpowering notion to return to the original story theme that the inspiration returned. This statement, I concede, comes across as surreal, as once again I can offer no proof to substantiate it, but what convinces me proof does exist, is the persistent feeling, I seemed to be reading the stories rather than writing them.

During the editing phase of each book I saw passages of repetition, and sought to correct them, but further study revealed they focused on essential values in life that seemed important for spiritual progression. An example of this was free-will. Having studied this aspect in real life, I have come to believe that to succeed on the physical plane spirals down to how we manage our free-will here. Taking a look at free-will practically, we could equate it as a method of assessment. This idea is used in all the books, and repeatedly emphasises in the stories how moral management of free-will offered my characters the opportunity to enter a Great Spiritual Adventure.

Now, with an insatiable sense of curiosity and excitement, I venture across the threshold to begin this final book, and I ponder what secrets my sources intend to reveal in it. However surreal those secrets may appear to you as my readers, they will hold a significant meaning for me because of the copious, arcane events that litter my past. I deliberate on the title Galactica Eternal! A title that initially illustrates for me something marginal when compared with the magnitude of the cosmos, and yet I sense from my sources that it symbolises something infinitely more vast.

Since my introduction to spiritualism a question has persisted in me, asking that if we can complete our voyage to infinity successfully and then enter the infinite world, do we then sit upon our laurels and languish in paradise forever? I have ventured to put this question to my sources and their intuitive response has been, that it is not so, but instead, will bring us to the threshold of an ultimate, Divine task. Their reply intrigued me, and prompted me to speculate that perhaps the Great Spiritual Adventure might be the beginning of an even greater adventure. Of all the books I have penned, this last book intrigues me the most, having contemplated that question throughout my writing period. I find myself running wild with all manner of scenarios, but am persistently returned to the idea: that as successful proven spirits we are destined to mentor souls venturing out on their voyage to infinity.

The concept of spiritual mentorship fills me with anticipation. That such a task could open up the whole cosmological edifice to us where infinity, paradoxically, is the only limiting factor. I find that my physical comprehension limits me in fully understanding what all this means, and have needed to resort to faith. However, the Celestial proof of the spiritual life I have received tells me the world beyond really exists, and has helped me to fill in the spiritual gaps that my physical comprehensive ability lacks. After all that is contained in my books and their introductions, I concede we are here to live out the material life. In recognition of that fact, I take it a step further in my belief, as having accepted the dimension beyond as the real world, I confirm again that only then can the proof of it’s existence materialise. So judge for yourselves, as with a vested interest I begin the final book of the ‘A Voyage to Infinity’ series, sensed once again by the persistent, intuitive notion— I shall be reading the stories rather than creating them.

Preface

IN THE CLOSING STAGES of the Purlieusian Encounter, Vicky and Jamie’s young spirit, Jon, has successfully emerged from the Evil One’s satanic crypts. With this first phase of his quest for redemption behind him, Jon embarks upon the incarnate phase on the world called Sereneous. His life there, under the guidance of his mentors Vicky and Jamie, is thwart with the dark influence. The trials and tribulations are intense, but within his spiritual psyche lies the resource gained during his previous life and period spent in the satanic crypts.

As Jon moves towards the conclusion of his second phase for redemption, his success opens the door to Galactica Eternal for Vicky and Jamie. Jon and Katrina now as proven souls, move up to the Celestial Realm, and incarnate on their first world in the higher physical plane. The parting gestures shared with Vicky and Jamie, sense Jon and Katrina it is only a matter of time before they will join them in Galactica Eternal.

The story now centres upon Vicky and Jamie as they venture out into the Infinite One’s Eternal Land, Galactica Eternal. The period they have spent on their voyage to infinity is incomprehensible— a period so vast that it can only be measured in the birth and decline of cosmological events. The answers to questions they have deliberated on, during their voyage across the physical planes are fulfilled, and taking up their place alongside their kindred spiritual companions, begin a new adventure where they will witness again the struggle they suffered, but in virgin spirits setting off on their voyages to infinity.

The physical presence is absent. There is no pain, human irritability or terrestrial upheavals: the spirit constantly bathed in an atmosphere of a brotherhood that is always in sight of the Infinite One. With the Celestial powers bequeathed to them in this benevolent environment, Vicky and Jamie are able to focus on the tasks entrusted to them by the Infinite One— tasks that will allow them to help virgin spirits’ bring in to perspective where the true world exists.

CELESTIAL REFLECTIONS

~1~

AS KATRINA AND JON prepared to embark upon their first incarnate period on the higher planes, they paused to take their leave of Vicky and Jamie. Like Vicky and Jamie’s Celestial Companion Simon had felt, Jon was sensitive of his past, but determined now to benefit from the lessons he had learned from those experiences, and use them to teach others. Vicky and Jamie intuitively felt that both Katrina and Jon, together, were destined to be two Celestial spirits who would work from the Infinite One’s Eternal Kingdom, and sensed feelings of excitement emanate from them on the prospect of stepping up to the Higher Planes.

With Katrina and Jon, setting off on their first Celestial incarnation, Vicky and Jamie embraced their auras and counselled them for the last time. Now as novice proven souls, Katrina and Jon were to join a Celestial Team monitoring life on Sereneous— Jon familiar with humanity’s declining morality on that world, having passed through it on the last part of his quest for reclamation. On the Celestial Horizon of Sereneous Vicky and Jamie saw a dark cloud, and sensed the approach of a second reset for life on that world. As the Evil One’s grip tightened around Sereneous, they knew that the writing was imminent on that Divine wall up in the Sereneousian Temple’s Sacred Chamber. Through their spiritual eyes they visualised the Divine text that would soon track across the pages of the Refulgent Book displayed upon it. Jon was intrigued listening to Vicky relating all that Katrina and he were soon to witness and become part of. Though entering this sinister phase of Sereneous’s evolution, Jon was excited on the prospect of once again voyaging across it, but as a proven incarnate spirit with his companion by his side.

Destined together to carry out the will of the Infinite One, Vicky’s final counsel had confirmed Katrina and Jon’s allegiance towards the Master Being— their loyalty to the Infinite One boundless now. Vicky smiled as she and Jamie watched Katrina and Jon set off, a brief, fleeting reflection tracking through her mind of the grim Purlieusian encounters that had led her and Jamie down into the Evil One’s satanic crypts to reclaim Jon. She pitied the spirits they had encountered in passing whose minds were trapped in that miserable place— their souls tied to the physical plane to satisfy their insatiable desire for its morbid, transient pleasures. But Jon had rallied to Simon’s call, and had risen above all that the black disciple Endarahn had plied upon him. Vicky knew now, that Katrina and Jon could look forward to a future full of promise— the promise she and Jamie were about to realise.

*

With Katrina and Jon safely set upon their voyage to infinity, Vicky and Jamie focused on the final stage of theirs. Gazing out across a dark void they saw a bright glow beyond it. Intuitively they sensed that this was the Infinite One’s Galactica Eternal, an infinitive, Eternal Land free of the folly of human conflict, indulgence and immoral seduction.

Vicky was beyond herself and fleeted an emotional, excited glance at Jamie. I can barely contain my feelings, My Heart, she whispered.

Jamie grinned. Well that makes two of us, Dear One, he conceded. He gazed out across the void again, as a transcript from the Avatarian Celestial Temple’s ledgers intruded into his mind. On our first Higher Plane, Avataria, we read of Tristram’s excursion to the Infinite One’s Eternal Land— a voyage that took him across a dark void. He paused, his gaze intensifying as he looked towards the glowing light in the distance; like what is reaching away before us now.

Vicky stared at him excitedly. I remember, My Heart. She followed his gaze thoughtfully. But he wasn’t alone... he…

No! interrupted Jamie. A Divine Spirit led him, and whose story was told on a world called Earth, and is transcribed in every Celestial Temple on the Higher Planes.

Vicky’s face radiated anticipation. It is said that all spirits who have successfully completed their voyage to infinity are blessed with an audience with Him.

Jamie smiled, endeared to Vicky’s inability to suppress her feelings of excitement— her emotion spilling out of her on the prospect. If you are so affected by the thought of that audience, Dear One, how will you cope with it’s reality?

Oh, Jamie… I can’t help it! He stands in the presence of the Infinite One, My Heart. A Divine Spirit who speaks for the Master Being, and has laid the template of life upon the physical plane Vicky grinned at Jamie’s attempt to contain his feelings, sensing them equal to hers.

Paused in silence, they revelled in a sublime moment of euphoria: a moment that had no comparison on the lower physical planes. An intuitive notion suddenly drifted into their minds that a reflection of their voyage to infinity would begin their entry into Galactica Eternal. At the conclusion of the summary of their voyage, the audience with the Infinite One’s Divine Spirit would begin. As they gazed about them, they confirmed that they were alone. It sensed them with a feeling, that even with all the hosts of souls populating the universes, all were in sight of the Infinite One. No matter at what level, class or creed, it filled Vicky and Jamie with the notion everyone was important to Him.

Standing alone, it mattered little to them how long they had to wait for that Divine audience— diverted by the beauty of the cosmos reaching away behind them. They continued reflecting on the time they had left the Hallowed Sanctum. It had been a sublime moment, but their spiritual knowledge that usually satisfied their curiosity was strangely absent on the subject of the Hallowed Sanctum.

They gazed concedingly at each other. It isn’t for mere souls like us to deliberate on what takes place within the Hallowed Sanctum, My Heart— only what happens after, sensing Jamie’s curiosity while suppressing her own.

Jamie nodded. "It seems that we must discipline ourselves even now in the Celestial Realm, Dear One."

Their conclusion led them on to their first incarnation on Orburn, and how Vicky had suffered a terminal illness that had shortened her life there. Viewing that incarnation now in the closing stages of their voyage to infinity, it confirmed it as a directive that had been placed upon them in that life. It was as if they had been given a script to follow— the theme of their lives there already planned out. It focused on the management of a soul’s free-will, and high-lighted again how that aspect was a vital tool the Evil One’s legions could use on the lower planes. The picture it generated in their minds, demonstrated that the resources had been there to lead them— Jamie reflecting on how his Grandmother Emily had been the saving of him.

The loss of Vicky had plunged him into a quagmire of bitterness; his future life there seeming to reach away towards an eternity in isolation. Emily’s moment had come in the closing stages of her life, her dormant early years spent helping others resist the challenges from the Evil One’s black disciples and their minions.

Jamie gazed at Vicky’s smiling face. It could so easily have gone the other way, like what happened to Jon, Dear One.

Vicky shook her head. But it didn’t did it, My Heart? The Infinite One had placed the resources there and you listened, but sadly our Jon didn’t— his decision in life taking us on a journey down through that dark valley.

~2~

Continuing on with their reflection, they contemplated their ‘Rendezvous with Evil’ on the world Called Sanctus. The bond between them, having been struck on Orburn, it was only a matter of time before they were reunited on Sanctus. It was upon this world Vicky was to realise the desire to be ordained as a Guardian Angel of the Infinite One’s animal kingdom. To achieve this she could have wished for no mentor better than her beloved Molly. This Divine Spirit, dressed in her crinoline of light teeming with the spirits of the Infinite One’s animal kingdom, had revealed the true wealth of the physical planes to Vicky and Jamie. It was a future resource that had constantly served Vicky, drawing upon that reserve when faced against the Evil One’s legions— none more so than when down in his satanic crypts. But the Sanctus encounter had revealed far more. It had demonstrated human injustice among that world’s population, and how Vicky and Jamie subsequently found that it was repeated on the other physical planes, as they journeyed across them.

Vicky paused and gazed at Jamie curiously. I believe our Divine Audience has begun, she murmured softly.

Jamie nodded thoughtfully, contemplating the intensity of the reflections on their voyage to infinity so far. I believe you are right, Dear One. Then let us go with the flow, as when our story is concluded, the summary of our voyage across the physical planes will complete it.

Vicky stared at Jamie, her expression of curiosity mutating to speculation. I wonder, are we being judged, My Heart? she whispered.

Jamie smiled. "It is said only the Infinite One shall judge His subjects, but I sense that the word ‘assess’, for souls successfully completing their voyage to infinity, is more appropriate. That doesn’t suppose we got it all right during our incarnate lives, but that this period of reflection is assessing and preparing us for our entry into Galactica Eternal. It is said that souls’ lives flash before them as they make their transition from the physical plane, so why not after their voyage to infinity? He paused to gaze around about them… I sense that Divine Eyes are upon us, Dear One."

Their lives on Sanctus continued to drift through their minds, and how on that world they had rubbed shoulders with the Evil One’s minions. With one successful incarnation behind them a plan had come into perspective there, accompanied with an intuitive feeling that an incarnate, Celestial Team was already present in support. Journeying through life on Sanctus had confirmed this notion when two companions, Samantha and Kenny appeared— a spiritual bond set between them. That bond, brought about between these two souls and Vicky and Jamie, was destined to demonstrate to the world, the Infinite One’s plan for all.

Two souls, Sasha and Sophie, were conceived onto Sanctus through Vicky and Samantha, and they, being of Divine conception, possessed the means to communicate with the world beyond. As part of a team they were destined to set an example, creating a sanctuary resource for the old and infirm from wealth simply won on a national lottery. Their team, investing that wealth in such a blatant, transparent manner, was initially considered by the majority looking on as completely void of logic, but later they found that others were gradually beginning to follow their example. Strong in spirit it was to lead Sasha and Sophie to canvass their faith more intensely, standing fast in the face of a nuclear holocaust that descended on Sanctus they had learned of through the Celestial Window.

Vicky and Jamie, now well into their assessment, had reached the stage of their entry into the Celestial Realm. Their subsequent incarnation on to the Higher Plane of Avataria, had introduced them to a newly seeded world called Crellow. As proven souls under the guardianship of two Divine Spirits called Tristram and his partner Mary, they found themselves more directly exposed to the Dark legions. It came as a bitter revelation for two novice proven souls entering the imperceptible conflict, but rallied to the call from the Infinite One’s legions. Undertaking reconnaissance missions, seconded to two mentors, Vicky and Jamie experienced the Celestial Technology, having read of it’s conception and use in the Avatarian Temple’s ledgers. Carrying the Infinite One’s legions in great motherships, proven souls monitored human suffering, injustice and immorality on the lower planes— their ultimate task— to serve in the resetting of disobedient worlds.

Vicky and Jamie’s continuing reflection took them back on one of their reconnaissance missions, a moment where they witnessed a confrontation between one of their mentors and a minion on Crellow. Their mentor won the day, and impressed by his resourcefulness Vicky and Jamie thought no more of it, unaware then that somewhere in their future that soul was destined to seek redemption and serve the Infinite One with them. But by far the greatest highlight that epitomised their introduction to the higher plane was a Divine insight given to them. Taken on an excursion to the Infinite One’s Galactica Eternal, it was to conclude their induction period and confirm their allegiance to the Infinite One.

Their attachment to the Avatarian Higher Plane established, Vicky’s and Jamie’s investiture as proven spirits continued with Vicky, a Guardian Angel of the Infinite One’s animal kingdom, and Jamie set to become the guardian of a world called Nemisia.

On Nemisia, Simon, the minion who had challenged Vicky and Jamie’s mentor while on Crellow, completed his quest for redemption. Monitored by Vicky and Jamie, now Guardians of Nemisia, they followed Simon through the incarnate phase of his redemption. The Celestial resources in place there, Simon heeded their message this time, success coming in the face of fierce adversity from the Evil One. Following Simon’s success, the Evil One was not receptive of his legions during this event— smarting from the loss of another soul enticed away from his satanic crypts. The Evil One’s defeat set the boundaries between Vicky and Jamie and him more intensely. Dark eyes now were focused on the last phase of Vicky and Jamie’s voyage to infinity, waiting on the emergence of the virgin spirit from the Hallowed Sanctum Vicky and Jamie were destined to mentor.

As proven souls, granted the freedom of the Infinite One’s Cosmos, Vicky and Jamie paused for a moment to gaze out across the Cosmos. It brought into perspective breathless scenes of beauty: an intimate, spiritual ‘view from infinity’ they could never have imagined while on the physical planes. Even with all the technology available to the most advanced civilisations on the material planes: to appreciate the true beauty of what they were witnessing it now needed to be viewed through spiritual eyes. They had gazed on in wonder at the panoramic scene reaching away to infinity— their spiritual ability hiding nothing. That moment had portrayed human irritability, dominating the lower planes, as transient
