I felt very powerful energies being uploaded into me. It was like supersonic flight; my ears even popped painfully, like on an airplane. I had to equalize the pressure myself. Then everything stopped suddenly and I felt weightless—my body was floating. I asked what it was.

"This is the energy of the Absolute, the energy of the universe of all forms of being."
"Where am I? What is this transparent sphere? A transparent sphere in which I'm sitting, floating in space above a planet. What is this capsule?"
"This is the capsule of your Avatar manifested on the planet Earth. It’s your suit so you can live on this planet. Your protective field."
"I thought a suit was needed to travel in space."
"Yes. The soul likewise inhabits a body that is only an outer shell visible to the eye. It’s a suit for better adaptation to the external world. You should stop interpreting everything that happens to you from the mind’s point of view. Everything is much more ethereal than it seems. You are energy manifested in matter."
"What does that mean?"
"It means that your body serves you only one purpose—to know yourself here and now in this manifestation of you on the planet Earth."
"Why can’t you ascend immediately without reincarnating on Earth?"
"It is necessary for your spiritual growth. For understanding earthly processes. For learning, for the manifestation of love."
"Why can’t we know this off Earth?"
"You are hindered by various hostile forms. On the planet Earth you form yourselves, ripen until the moment of your soul’s flourishing. You gain the strength to resist. It is like an incubation period—a period of your soul’s maturation, preparing it for the great. For this you must accumulate the experience of incarnation. Knowledge comes only through experience."
