I'm inspired whenever I see an aeroplane in the sky and I wish that I could be up there with it.
          Human beings can swim in the water, walk about on the earth and, using aeroplanes, fly in the air. Our life began in the watery environment of our mother’s womb where we were preparing for our life on the earth. After our birth we found ourselves living in an air environment on the earth where we are preparing for a life in the spiritual world. After our physical body dies we will exist in the spiritual world where we’ll be able to fly freely, like a butterfly.
So, for me, the butterfly (which came from a caterpillar) symbolises our eternal-life stage in the spiritual world.
           If we know the truth of our existence there we can prepare very well by living our life on the earth directed toward this purpose. The purpose of our life is to be able to give and receive love and the family is the ‘school of love’. So our life on earth is a ‘university life’ and our destiny when we graduate is to live life with love forever.
