Heaven's Criminal Code: Prepare your Defense

One of the most disturbing ideas known to
our human imaginations is that of the Final Judgment, the
accounting we are called to give at the end of our lives.
Born in the depths of our consciousness, this notion of a
final judgment is a consequence of our perception that we
have priorities and goals in our lives. It is a measurement
of just how successful or unsuccessful we have been in the
venture of life. This book suggests a possible set of
ethics for the individual vis-à-vis his or her own
self-ethics that reflect the obligations life imposes on the
living. Written in the form of a Criminal Code, this book
both in structure and terminology mimic legal documents.
The prime goal is to call attention to the deep psychic
fusion between what we believe to be divine
expectations-that is, those of the Creator-and the
expectations of our consciousness. The key postulate of the
Biblical text is really this: that Creator and creature
communicate with each other through consciousness. More than
that perhaps: that Creator and creature blend and merge
within consciousness. This Constitution and Criminal Code
will thus have to account for projections of both God's
desires and the desires of our consciousness. They are
structured in the principles laid out in the Ten
Commandments and in the punishments of the Ten Plagues, both
found in the book of Exodus. The Creator's expectations
and punishments correspond to similar expectations and
punishments within our consciousness. Employing collective
and personal symbolism and the reading of Carl Jung of the
Commandments, the book steer away from the morality usually
applied when judging, instead allowing the soul's yearnings
and aspirations to guide this evaluation of the quality and
propriety of life.
