In LDS theology, what makes us forget our premortal existence is called the "veil of forgetfulness". Is there any indication in LDS doctrine when, if ever, this veil is lifted again?
- It doesn't seem to be at death, since the purpose it has still continues on for as long as people need to decide whether they want to follow Jesus.
- Is it at the resurrection then? I see no indication that "simply" being resurrected lifts the veil, I am not aware of any messenger referencing their own premortal existence. Apart from Jesus and God himself revealing it.
- There also doesn't seem to be a point in NEVER lifting it. Its purpose is fulfilled after the Judgement. Also, the celestial world is described as having knowledge of all things, past, present and future. So, I would expect the veil to be lifted at SOME point.
So, has there been so far any indication as to when the veil is lifted? Is it at/after the judgement?
