Then it was given you to look out from within that Consciousness, and to see what seemed to be a stairway that reached down into a world of consciousness below, and you were permitted to see those who were slowly and painfully climbing that stairway out of the darkness of self into the Light of the true Consciousness of Christ.

You were truly blessed to be in that Consciousness, while your soul was sitting in your garden, and your human self in a chair in your living room. It must have been a very illuminating experience for you. Surely now you can see how all three selves are but One Consciousness, that of the Christ, also called the Kingdom Consciousness; and that in It you see and know all things on all planes—nothing being hidden from you. For in that Consciousness you are One with all Those Who are in that Consciousness with you, and you feel the Fellowship, the Spirit of the Great Brotherhood of Christ.

“HE WHO fasts and he who eats too much; he who does not sleep and he who sleeps too much; he who works too much and he who does not work,—none of these can be adepts.”
