Question: How do you tell a child about the spiritual world?
Answer: Very simply, tell the child that there is something superior to us that governs us. From that superior something, forces come down to us and affect us.
Why are these forces affecting us? In order to evoke within us a desire to rise back to that sublime, eternal, beautiful level.
This is how we will come to love each other,
Bond with each other,
And live as one man in one heart.
That state is called “the upper world” or “the spiritual world.” This is the right way to explain it to a child. We must never lie to children; we should explain just a little, but only the truth.
