Lesson from the Spirit

I am walking downward somewhere, many steps, and above me are arches of a green woven plant; they make shade, protecting from the sun. I descend, and it seems to me that these steps are endless.
—What is this?
—This is about development.
—So I am going down?
—You are present at the origin point of time.
—What does that mean?
—You are launching processes of self-regulation of the variables of programmed events.
—What does that mean in simple words?
—You regulate your path, correct it, study it.
—Do not be afraid to explore, to descend downward, into the depths of your soul, to study it.
—What do these steps mean, this shadow over your head?
—The shadow is protection from external influences, to give you the opportunity to know yourself.
By studying the depths of your consciousness and subconscious you build the road to your growth, to the growth of your spirituality. That is what it means.
Descending these steps, carefully building the protection over your head, you deepen more and more into yourself. Only having studied the full depth of your soul will you find the way up.

They show the steps upward, and I climb them, and above me is an arch of flowers.

—Why flowers?
—Flowers are life, flowers are the resurrection of life, they are a visible manifestation of life.

I walk and new arches of flowers appear, I walk beneath these flowers.

—Why was that arch shady?
—So that nothing would disturb your knowing of yourself, not even you yourself—your mind. You fence yourself off in that way from any influence on the processes of knowing yourself.
It is protection from the material world, from its foundations and rules, protection from judgments, from doubts, insecurity, distrust.

This arch is nothing other than your protection. The steps downward are nothing other than self-knowledge.
The road leading upward is nothing other than spiritual growth.

Having reached there, to the summit of those steps, an astonishing view of all that exists will open to you.
Do not fear to descend, do not fear to return to yourself.
Spiritual growth is impossible without deep self-knowledge.
Know, study, remember, and become acquainted with yourself.

Self-knowledge does not occur on a single plane; it happens multidimensionally and multifacetedly, so you must not fear it, you must trust the Spirit that leads you. So be it.
