I was in a luminous place filled with bright white light. There was a feeling of peace and serenity, a permanent state of total bliss. I was sitting and next to me was a tall man with long hair. His presence was powerful, majestic, that of a Being of High Vibration, an Enlightened, Ascended Master.

We were both watching, from a distance, observing my earthly self. I saw my body sleeping on the hospital bed surrounded by the same bright luminous light. It was a silent, calm scene as in watching a baby in deep slumber. 

After a while, the Ascended Master said to me, “It’s almost time”.  Calmly I responded, “Yes, I am waiting for her to wake up”. And we waited silently and peacefully for the moment to arrive.

Upon awakening, I felt transported from the void back into this earthly plane. The sense of peace and serenity still with me as a deep feeling of gratitude engulfed my heart.  

This was one of those moments, a Heavenly experience I will never forget and that I carry with me since that day.

At times, while meditating, I find myself going back to this place. The difference is that the hospital bed is not necessarily where I see myself sleeping. It may be a situation in my life, a person, work, a story I continue to tell myself, a limiting belief or a perceived problem that has me in deep slumber. The illusion of the outer world becomes the anesthesia itself. And sometimes it’s tight grip keeps me profoundly unconscious.
