Praying for the souls of the deceased, not to them.

Also, “Caring Connections Can Stretch”: http://www.bswett.com/1990-07ConnectionsStretch.html

“This is why “Love God supremely” is the first commandment, and “Love your neighbor as yourself” is the second commandment. Those whose love for God is stronger than all their other loves combined automatically go to God, but those whose love for their neighbors is stronger than their love for God automatically go to their neighbors.

Thus, in theory, at least, in accordance with the law of attraction, the direction that a soul tends to move in spiritual space could be computed as the vector-sum of all that soul’s attractions.

Since my session with Joan and Robert, many caring discarnates have benefitted from being told:

Look, there’s a thin, thread-like connection between you and the one you love. Do you see it?
(They almost always do.) Now move up a little, toward the light, and notice what happens. See? The connection will stretch. (They are often amazed.) Do you know what that means? It means you don’t have to wait and hang around here in order to help the ones you love. You can rise up to the light without severing your connections. You can let all those connections stretch. When you’re in the light, you will be cleaned up, and receive guidance and strength and support, so you can help them better. And you can still find them by following your connection back to them—wherever they may be—as long as you care enough to do so. And then, as each of them dies, you can go to them and help them rise to the light. See? That’s how your love is supposed to work.:

Memo: In this work, remember why the two great commandments are given in that order, by sequence as well as importance. FIRST love God to establish your connection to God. THEN love your neighbor to establish your connection to your neighbor.
