Abstract:
"This thesis focuses on the supposition that we are all living in a state of purgatory right now. We have the option to elevate or to fall. This work addresses the problem of what we can do to help the living now. The historical teachings of purgatory tell us that we can save the dead and help them to reach salvation through our prayers. This project focuses on the belief that we can save the living through our effort and love. With a little help we can all transform and rise."
