The spiritual world is often seen as one big and unknown realm that we only access when we pass away into the afterlife. Here i shall write about an important differentiation that can be made between the two main sections of the spiritual world.

The one main department of spirit world is that which is connected to the physical world on earth. The other main region is the one that encompasses all the spiritual realms that are away from the earth.

Before i shall attempt to give a principled explanation of the relation between these two main spirit-world regions, i shall tell a little about these.

The spiritual world on earth is mostly occupied by spirits who either have a mission to fulfill on earth or who are bound to the earth and cannot leave it. Many angels and spirits come to the earth, part of them in a good way to engage in a process of returning resurrection. They got tasks to help people on earth who are having a mission. Each person who did not complete his or her mission or course to perfection on earth must come back to either descendants or to people living on earth who inherited the same mission. Such spirits are trying to cooperate with people on earth. They are trying to inspire them with their knowledge and good feelings. Of course, often such returning spirits also bring their problems to people on earth or may pass on knowledge that is not correct or principled.

There also are angels and spirits working on earth who are part of those that attempt to build a world for themselves, without God or against God. Also such spirits can visit people on earth and influence them.

The other category of spirits working on earth is slightly different. These are spirits who are bound to the earth, are bound to certain people or bound to certain places. Some of these spirits are so undeveloped that they cannot move in spirit world or they hardly even know that they exist. Other spirits lived a life of being attached to a certain house, region or profession. For example, a farmer who loved his house and land but who had little love for his children may end up being stuck to the house in which he lived on earth, even though other people than his children and grandchildren are now living in that house.

Of course, also such earthbound spirits do have a task in the sense of returning resurrection, but if they had little or no awareness of God and of their mission on earth, also in spirit world they will have the same undeveloped level and they need to be raised and educated before they can advance.

The second department in spirit world is all the space that is not directly connected to earth. These spirits and angels usually are the elder ones, who advanced in their missions in a heavenly way, or who developed in a more evil way. Although there are many realms and places in this part of the spiritual world with different tasks or mission, in general one can say that the spiritual world not connected to the earth is the part from which life in the cosmos and on earth is organized and administrated. It is also the section of spirit world where many creations are made and many of these also are brought to the earth. Most training of human spirits and angels is organized in this part of spirit world.

Such angels and spirits live on other planets, on stars, on moons and in other galaxies than our Milky Way.

How to understand the relationship between the region of spirit world not connected to the earth and that which is on earth? I often use the word 'the Living' to denote spirit world not on earth, in juxtaposition to the word 'the Earth.'

The Living relates to the Earth like Mind relates to Body.

The Living relatively speaking (and it is not true for all individual spirits) harbors more spirits in parental or leader's position while the Earth is the home of spirits in children's or servant's position.

For the Kingdom of Heaven to be built on earth, it is necessary that a Kingdom of Heaven is built in the Living. This Kingdom of Heaven in the Living has the function of administering and governing the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.

Unfortunately, in the past the Living has very much come under control of evil spirit beings and in the latest years many conflicts have occurred in order to start reclaiming the Living for God.
