Spirits Good and Evil
 
 
This was a moment in time I will never forget.  
 
I was walking alone through and old cedar forest on the west coast of Vancouver Island, and I had the overwhelming sensation of being suddenly turned into a marionette. 
Of course I went with this feeling, to see where it led me.  My arms and legs moved not of my own accord but from strings, and I felt wooden.  I looked up and discovered the culprit.  There was the spirits of Good and Evil above me, hovering like a cloud.  Together they pulled my strings; it felt so good I couldn’t imagine living any other way.  Good sat back and said he would let me go my own way.  Evil led me to spiritual places. 
They were friends, these spirits of Good and Evil, they worked together all the time.  I was given the choice by Good to forget the world of spirits.  What I saw above me was like a dream, and I tried my hardest to figure how I would follow Good if Good could not be seen, whereas Evil has given me insight into the spirit world. 
Or is it evil that is tricking me and pretending to be Good, and Good is really Evil.  Oh my head spun with the thoughts.  Either way they work together so what is the difference?  I followed the path of the spirit.  Instantly there was a veil of light filtering through the forest canopy, it was enshrouded by water vapour and obviously created out of mystery. 
I stood before it, and Good/Evil explained the veils of reality.  There are three veils of reality; the first is the misty veil of airy light, the essence of spiritual matter.  They took me through.  I walked along the trail slowly, not wanting to miss anything.  The second is the veils of shadows; most people carry it over their eyes and hearts, blinding them to the world of spirit.  I had to bend down to get through the veil that hung in the shadows of the trees.  It felt like I walked through webbing, and I became aware of the spider webs hanging around this veil. 
The spider catches the Earth Children with sensitivity to the universe, the ones seeking connection.  Spider hung around the veil of blindness, and speaks to those waking up from the dream. 
I walked onward, thanking spider for the time she called me in the past and her reappearance in my life again.  The second veil was much shorter than the first and the third I stood in front of, and placed my hands on my hips.  It was a log, a huge fallen log and the mosses covering it hung like a curtain of beauty. 
The third veil is one of earth, to become one with earth; you must remember your connection to the universe.  I got on my hands and knees, dampness oozed into the fabric of my clothes and water was upon me.  I had to get right down on my stomach and inch my way under.   One must bow low and become one with the true essence of earth, the natural world, as 99.999% (I am totally just guessing) of life does not walk on two legs.
The smell of mosses and rotting wood filled my nose.  When I got underneath, I flipped over and lay on my back.  There were beetles and grubs and centipedes on the underside of the log.  The wood was reddish and spongy, full of water and rot.  I concentrated on the coolness, and felt for the heartbeat of nature.  There was a low vibration running its way into the palm of my hand, and I let it flow into my matter.  I opened up my spirit, and became full of energy and elements. 
I could not see or feel where the log ended and my hand begun.  The earth below me was empty as the cycle of the spirit had begun.  I lay in a cocoon of earth molecules, my own body became connected with the spirit which flows through all things. 
I lay in this cocoon of universal energies and time immortal for I don’t know how long. I may have even fallen asleep, enclosed in pure peace, rocking me into Nirvana.
The only problem I have with these experiences is I cannot prolong the sensations.  I cannot walk in the spirit and the physical.  I am in one or the other.  I am shown all these things yet I cannot sustain it.  I know that this connection with the earth is the heaven that I seek, heaven is on earth. This connection I feel is one that we have, as humanity, all been aware of. Ancient knowledge; and I know that we, as humanity, will remember again.
