Life After ........





I
n a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the 
other: 

“Do you believe in life after delivery?” 

The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be 
something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare 
ourselves for what we will be later.”


“Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. 
What kind of life would that be?”

The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light 
than here.
​ ​
Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from 
our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t 

understand now.”


The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And 
eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord 
supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical 
cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically 
excluded.”

The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and 
maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need 
this physical cord anymore.”


The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, 
then why has no one has ever come back from there? 
Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery there is 
nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us 
nowhere.”

“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will 
meet Mother and she will take care of us.”

The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? 
That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”

The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded 
by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her 
this world would not and could not exist.”

Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that 
She​ doesn’t exist.”


To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in 
silence and you focus and you really listen, you can 

perceive Her presence,and you can hear Her loving voice, 
calling down from above.”
