The astral dream, in itself, is a product of everything that connects us to the cosmos in a mystical communication, during which the divine gradually descends into the human and progressively erases the ego. It touches the supernatural and that which will never end. Its vibrations extend into space.
Astral dreaming relates to the desires for sublimation, to the divine growth within us. We all, each and every one of us, share the same and unique profession: that of becoming complete and divine. Sooner or later, we must live THE ENCOUNTER.
This dreamlike quality prepares us for a long time in advance, well before we are subjected to the great and definitive test of the passage into the light. This kind of dream enables THE ENCOUNTER with the middle ground and the ascent. It has nothing to do with any arbitrary association; no, it is an evolutionary degree, a step toward a more luminous level of consciousness.
It is through him that we receive the gifts, that is to say, of our weaknesses and of developing serenity. He leads to a series of multiple initiations into gnosis, to illumination.
To attain gnosis, to total perfection, we must face the dual aspect of the lower astral and the higher astral. This is what we call living THE ENCOUNTER.
We still live it for a very long time without being aware of it, but there comes a moment when we can no longer doubt that we are reaching a very delicate zone, on the verge of a definitive breakthrough toward the light.
The sun appears in all its splendor; we see and perceive nothing but it. Struggles matter little. At this very moment down here, we understand and enjoy Beauty and Infinite Love, aware that the trial is called struggle and that struggle prepares for future power, for it is an integral part of life.
Everything becomes easier because we are more blinded, but the struggles are still arduous outside of us, for inside everything has become so clear and reassuring.
Doubt no longer exists. The Self is gradually replacing the Ego, humility is making pride surrender, and detachment from the terrestrial is asserting itself. We are becoming increasingly aware that we are a part of a WHOLE.
Sooner or later, this encounter is destined for each of us, regardless of age. For some, it comes as early as adolescence, but that is rather rare. Those who experience it without having deep convictions in childhood search for it and do not always find it, and that is the plunge to the bottom of the Abyss.
To navigate this transition well, one must seek understanding elsewhere than in the average development of mass.
