Now imagine anything that you choose but have a line or a platform that represents Alpha I. Have it in your mind as a symbol of adjacent consciousness at the same level, perhaps, as your eyes. Do whatever you choose. Imagine yourself as a small figure on the line, for example. Imagine a road and yourself upon it. Now I will want you shortly to imagine other such lines or roads, so pick an image for yourself, that you can use. See yourself clearly on this line or road or path. You may use a floor if you prefer, but see yourself upon it, for this will represent A-I.
Now imagine another adjacent road or line parallel and still further away from your normal consciousness. Now pause to feel the difference in your consciousness as you move from one line or road to another. And this one represents A-II.
Now imagine again a third line or path, still parallel and adjacent. Examine the feel of your consciousness as you do so. Move now, further on this time, to another path or road that you will call A-IV, and that is still further in distance from your normal consciousness. Now imagine still another line which we will call A-V.
Now here, pause for a moment. If you can, imaginatively look behind you to see these other four roads or paths that run adjacently and parallel. Now turn, step back to the previous road or path to A-IV. Step again back to A-III. Step again back to A-II. Now carefully step back to A-I and pause. Feel your own consciousness at this point.
And now imagine a step above A-I. Not adjacent or parallel, but above, and feel yourself step up upon it. And we will call it A-I-a, though the names make little difference. Pause there and imaginatively look down to A-I, but hold your position.

Imaginatively look down. Look at the other levels of consciousness from which you have come. Now very slowly, come back to the previous level, and keep coming down each step slowly until you reach again the original A-I from which you began.
