1113. What is then the purpose of this being experiencing the events or existence for a second time? In order to understand the purpose of this "reliving" of the events one must first and foremost understand the difference between experiencing the events on the physical plane and "reliving" them on the "plane of bliss". The two forms of experience are very different. The physical form is a realistic form of experience bound by fate, where the being feels at one with matter, time and space. During this form of experience it is bound to "age", bound to "volume" and naturally first and foremost bound to "creation". In the "outer physical world" it will feel at one with its laborious ascent of the mountains and with its difficulties in crossing rivers and oceans. It feels at one with its descent into the abyss, its mutilations, illnesses and accidents. It feels at one with its struggle for its daily bread, indeed, in the worst case it feels that its entire life and existence stand and fall with the organism itself and the matter connected to it. It follows from this of course that the being also feels at one with everything that gives this organism pleasure and wellbeing. But however divine this can be, all the experiences here cost a "creative" effort. Not one single experience here can be sensed by the individual without it having to be "created" or released more or less laboriously in advance through concentration and exertion of will, energy and force or the release of tension between "fire" and "coldness", the interplay of feeling, intelligence and intuition, in short, a perpetual juggling with all the "outer" energies. The material form of experience can thereby be nothing but the opposite of "rest". "Day-conscious" material existence is thus entirely a "plane of work". Since this plane consists of nothing but "creation", which in turn really means "construction" and "destruction", only a plane of existence that, so to speak, exists without being "creation" can be its opposite. Since such an opposite is necessary in order that the "plane of work" can be sensed or experienced at all, and this opposite in turn cannot possibly exist on the material plane, we see here something of the purpose whose fulfilment is the mission of the "kingdom of bliss". Since no specific "day-consciously experienced" or consciously sensed "creation" takes place in the "kingdom of bliss", we see here a plane that represents the highest form of "stillness" and corresponding "rest" that can be manifested within the structure for the maintenance of eternal "existence".
