Otherwise, I would have had to make reparation in purgatory. He made me see the suffering of my soul in purgatory as it would expiated the sins of the flesh that I had committed. As well, I heard: <em>\u201cExpiation of the sin of the flesh.&#8221;<\/em> In my soul I felt the torture inflicted by the demons; they were furious that I had abandoned them. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>I accepted these sufferings in a spirit of humility and of reparation. I asked God\u2019s Grace for support for what I was to expiate. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">What shame<\/span> it was for me to see in my interior that it was Satan who inflicted impurities on my own body. As a lover of sexual pleasure, my soul began to cry and regret it profusely. But I had to make reparation. I who loved mini-skirts to show my bosom, here is my body now in gehenna. In order to maintain a beautiful body I would go on diets, do body building, enjoy sauna and the jacuzzi. I even went for plastic surgery&#8230;<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">My soul found itself with both hands hanging on a wall.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>I saw that my soul had the same shape as that of my earthly body. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>I was in what seemed to be a huge grotto. Everything was dark. Suddenly great waves of brilliant light descended into the place where I was.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Above me was purgatory,<\/span> with very high flames.
