Sea Within


To hear

To feel

Effortlessly

Within


The awesome

Great rhythm of

The Crystalline

Sea


Inhale the breeze

Absorb the spray

Become the waves

So pounding, so cool


So rhythmic

So free

So deep

Within me


The ancient

The infinite

Primordial sea…


After my exposure to the third page of the Book of Light, LABEEZARINE gently takes my face in his hands and gazes into my eyes. It is the same greeting he shared with Siriah earlier. The feeling of this greeting is hard to describe. The love transferred is so very powerful that it is almost heartbreaking in its intensity.


“Welcome DEVA RAMIEL, you have now entered our angelic order,” LABEEZARINE intones in a deep and resounding voice that penetrates to the depths of my soul. “You have encountered the third page of The Book of Light, and are now a novitiate of the B’nai Elohim. You now have one foot on the human pathway, and another on the angelic pathway of transformation.”


After LABEEZARINE says these words, the garden increases threefold in illumination, and the singing of the birds intensifies. Within the bird song I hear the same melody as Greeneve’s blessing song during the crossing of the waters of Izen.


IAHOTE reaches out and grasps my left hand, while taking Siriah’s right hand. She leads us back through the garden along the same pathway of our approach.


As we depart I turn to look back once again at LABEEZARINE. I watch as the great angel dives into the sacred pool at the shore of the stone temple; transforming once again into a golden Koi.


Soon we re-enter the great library room of the fifth dimensional manor house. IAHOTE gestures toward the two large cushioned couches situated in front of the massive fireplace. “Please sit here.”


Siriah and I both sink into the comfortable couches. We are facing one another, and between us is the large low wooden table.


IAHOTE climbs up the library ladder, and retrieves a huge book from a higher shelf. She then places it unopened in front of us on the table.


“Each of these books is a passageway to another world.” IAHOTE says while looking toward me. “The great angel LABEEZARINE has recommended a journey through this particular book for the continuation of your spiritual journey and knowledge.”


Siriah picks up the massive book and turns it so it is facing me. As I gaze at the book’s cover I see a blue planet moving through a solar system. It is not a fixed image; instead the book is like a window outward into the cosmos.


Upon closer inspection I see that the orbiting planet is earth. The image is dynamic, and grows larger before my eyes. Soon I am able to identify the Himalaya Mountains, the sub-continent of India, and the surrounding oceans.



“Are we passing through this book portal to return home to earth?” I ask.


“We will be travelling back to earth,” Siriah responds, “but it will be the earth of over two thousand years ago. We will be travelling to ancient India to a time during the Classical Period of Indian history.”


With this statement, Siriah reaches out and opens the book. It immediately expands in size to about six feet across.
