William Judge was the most
important instructor after Blavatsky, who spread
the teaching of the Transhimalayan masters, and therefore it is well worth
studying him.
The main explanations he gave
about what happens after humans died, he put in his book "The Ocean of Theosophy", and what
he wrote about it, I transcribed in these two articles:
And in the rest of his work, he
gave more details, which I have compiled in the following articles:
And I also recommend that you
read these two articles that were published in his magazine The Path, written by two collaborators
close to him:
And I also recommend you to read
the explanations that William Judge gave about reincarnation, since it is a
subject that is highly correlated with the post-mortem journey:
(Later I will put
it)
And to finish, I put below the
explanation that William Judge gave about cremation:
When people asked him:
What effect, if any, does the cremation of the body
have on the remaining material principles?
William Judge replied:
« Cremation has no
direct effect on any of the sheaths or vehicles, but it must have the indirect
effect of freeing the astral form from the influence of the material body and
thus give the astral a chance to more quickly dissipate. It has much less
effect on kama and the others above, and none on praṇa, for the latter is ever
present, and in the case of death is simply at work somewhere else.
Material fire can have no effect
directly on any sort of matter that is not on its own plane, and hence has no
effect at all on manas or those above that. From a sanitary point of view
cremation is of high importance, as it does away with injurious matter or
matter in such a state as to be injurious to the living. »
