Memory, Personality and Life in Spirit
Our universe and other universes are full of life. The memory does not reside within the brain, but within the mind. The brain is the organ of usage.
The memory, after leaving behind the physical shell, is considerably heightened, as man becomes more aware of his spiritual origin. Remember, the spiritual world is a mind world; in spirit, your memory is rapidly overlaid by the experiences in spirit.
The hidden personality contains two elements which affect the physical body. The first and most important is a central element of God spirit, which was given to the body when it was conceived. It came from a region of pure heavenly spirit, totally pure and unsullied by concept of original sin or anything earthly. Everyone has this gift, which stays with them until death of the physical body, when it goes on with a different, but just as real, spirit body to a region of spirit life governed by thought.
The second element which goes with the spirit body to this new region is the character and personality which has developed in the mind and body during its earth life. This is the more obvious factor of importance at the stage of one newly dead, because a good-thinking person will go, by operation of a natural law, to a spirit region where harmony and happiness prevail.
Alternatively, if the character developed during earth life is unkind, greedy and generally uncaring of others, then, on death, the spirit body will again automatically go to a place which might be a kind of hell: dark and populated by those of a similar unpleasant character. That like attracts like is still true in spirit conditions.
It cannot be stated more emphatically that the key factor in what happens to a person on death is subject to natural laws, which are immutable. The system is, however, entirely just, but certain in its action. No one is therefore condemned to misery in a self-induced ‘hell’ for ever.
Time is of no consequence whatever, and those in unhappy circumstances can recover and rise to better places, given that they are able to start thinking as to why they find themselves in such a miserable place. Eventually, some grain of compassion or remorse will enter their minds (it is all a thought process).
Each time this happens, there will be a slight improvement in their conditions, and this can be an accelerating process up to the spirit levels to where they can be actively helped by ‘Angels’ to reach a level of real happiness and, at last, be able to meet those who loved them during earth life.

Spirit and Intelligence
The scientist will find himself compelled to announce the existence of what you and I know as spirit—all-permeating spirit.
The scientist may give it another name; he may call it an ether. The scientist may find that there is what he calls an ether, and that this ether, as will be discovered scientifically, appears to be imbued with what you know as intelligence.
That is the great step that science has to make: to find that the world, the very material world upon which you dwell, is not a dead thing, but very matter is permeated with intelligence, with spirit intelligence, with an ‘ether’.
And when your scientist shall, bluntly and heedless of the results, announce to the world that this is so, the man in the street, after a suitable lapse of time whilst he is being very doubtful upon the point, the man in the street will accept the ‘intelligent ether’, the God, the spirit, just as he accepted your various machines.

God and the Universality of Love
In the universe of which you have knowledge; indeed, and indeed, I have said many times—I have said, and it must always be the burden of my speaking—that God is greater than you or I or any individual can comprehend. And man, even man incarnate, can, to a large degree, comprehend his present universe; therefore, God must transcend that universe—as indeed He does, but I give it to you in terms of logic.
And so it were parochial to say or to suggest that there is the little ball which you name Earth—there are a few thousand, a few million (I do not know) souls who are dwelling upon the earth—and that is Creation. That is God. There is nothing more!
These spirits, the spirits of those persons dwelling upon earth, will pass to a spirit plane, and that is still all that there is; and that they will proceed and progress until eventually they shall merge with the Godhead, and that is all there is of the Godhead!
I ask you, my friends, my children, I ask you to contemplate the picture! It will not do, for God is vaster than any comprehension and His love embraces the whole of His creation, not alone that upon earth.
And so, GOD is LOVE and LOVE is GOD and LOVE is all—all that you know and all that you do not know and all that we—including myself—cannot know, but one day will, when we shall comprehend that LOVE.
With all blessings, I leave you.

A Message from The Abu Trust
The Abu Trust is not a religion, sect or cult and has no attachments to such. The teachings and philosophy are universal. There is no membership, set of rules or tenets governing the Trust.
Literally hundreds of communicators from many walks of life came through Rick to speak to and converse with The Norman Hunt Home Circle. The philosophy and teaching about the other side (Etheric World) and wonderful evidence are stored in The Abu Trust archives.
We feel at The Abu Trust privileged to have been given access to such remarkable and wonderful teaching and philosophy, which anyone with an interest can use to expand their way of thinking. We also feel that we have a responsibility to reach as many people as possible so that they can share this knowledge.
Abu’s spiritual philosophy is communicated from an advanced spiritual level. He is so humble, yet so wise. No stone was left unturned: seek and you shall find. Put aside prejudice and be guided by the evidence, and always strive for the truth.
Branches of science and physics are now proving evidence for the continuance of life in other realms following the death and dissolution of the physical body or vehicle. As doors are opened by science, it is all-important that the love and light of spiritual knowledge and philosophy shine through.
This is bridging the gulf between science and religion to equal spiritual science and help rid the world of its fearful uncertainties, superstitions and dogmatic beliefs. The root itself, being FEAR, has to be replaced with the certain knowledge that life is an uninterrupted continuum.
The creative force (GOD) has to be LOVE, through which all progression depends. It is the LIFE FORCE ITSELF.
