To Trevor Madison, 

Minister of Scientific Exploration of the Spiritual Realm,

Minister, I hope that you have found my exploration notes at least entertaining if not informative. It has always been a dream to converse with others of my same passion. I have alluded to one item in particular, that is the subject of God. 

You know as well as I do, God exists. It is beyond any doubt that God is real. He is the whole reason that man started exploring the spiritual realm after all. But when it came to men shedding away their physical aspect and seeking God with their spirit, they found that God was not difficult to find. He is usually in plain sight for all to see. It is impossible to deny that the search for God via the spirit does not yield results immediately. Most of the time he does not leave one’s side once He is sought after. In all the expeditions that I have heard of, God has always been there. Within the galaxies and nebulas, beyond the realms and dimensions, it may sound odd mixing a science fiction with the spiritual but believe me when I say that reality has never seemed so beautiful. 

Emotions and facts blended together to make what most would consider niravia. The ballet of stars seems small by the very nature of God. Horizons beyond space and time are nothing when compared to the vastness of his wonder. It is as though space was created as a prelude to the greater story. There have been many times that I have drifted into the folds of his robes and spent days and weeks on end. I have lived many lives of men and seen nothing that can compare to the wonders that I have yet to behold. Like the edge of the universe has no more secrets to reveal and the words of God make new wonders yet to be even imagined. There are few ways to describe how majestic God truly is. 

I am sorry that I have taken up your time with a thought process that you have no doubt been witness to. God is the reason that I sought meditation after all. My exploration of the spiritual realm was not in vain, indeed it was a blessing beyond all hope. To see the ending as I lay on my deathbed. I am sure that you may be grieved to hear that, but take it from me I seek only to know God more fully as I will return to Him as a spirit as I did as a child. Angels worship him, demons flee, animals dance and men wonder. What an awesome God with wonders that never cease.

For the last time in life

    I will be with you in Spirit
