(“I took a nap, and awakened remembering this dream experience: First I was in a room asking a group of people about ‘the council’ — I wanted to know if there was such a thing. Instantly a white light came from the floor up through the ceiling, door width, with some symbols in or on it. I immediately whooshed up through the air into it, ascending out of the room at great speed.

Such a source does exist for each individual, regardless of how it is interpreted. The white light is characteristically a symbol in such cases. He could not assimilate the information, and became frightened, to some extent at least, at the vastness of the experience involved, as if the ancient yet new knowledge that he sought for his individual reasons was so encompassing that his own individuality would have trouble handling it while retaining its own necessary frame of reference. A natural-enough reaction, simply because of the usual unfamiliarity of such experiences.
