Experience Description:

When I was eight years old my parents decided to have some blood tests done on me to see if I was ill. We went to a clinic near our home and after they took my blood, I passed out due to low blood pressure, according to the doctors who attended me. After a certain time went by, I lost consciousness, but the magnificent thing was that during that period of unconsciousness I entered into an arc of light. It was like traveling through thousands of luminous arcs, extremely beautiful; their radiance seemed to increase during the time I traveled through them.

The landscape was illusory; it was a true delight to see that world. Everybody there was young. There were all races present, including some that had an orange skin, the color of bronze. But seeing those people wasn't the most surprising thing. Rather it was that their bodies seemed to be made of porcelain, not because of the color but because their skin was so soft and smooth. I remember this because my grandma had some small statues made of a material that was similar. But the people there even seemed to have a subtle shining light around them.

One person who looked like a woman of medium height asked me what I was doing there. I answered that I didn't know, that I had suddenly appeared from among some immense bushes as the pathway opened to me while trying to get to where I heard voices. At that point, with great delicacy and tenderness, she told me: 'You don't belong to this world. At the time, you have chosen you will come here like everyone else. We'll take care of this with the gentlemen you see standing over there.' She pointed with her finger towards some men whose faces I could see. There were three of them. The three had an 'M' carved on their belts and there were symbols on their ivory colored clothing I could not understand. From among them emerged a woman with impressive beauty. She shone with a unique resplendence. She was different from the others. She seemed to understand with a glance what had happened and what was going on there. She was indescribable, truly indescribable. Even today, I can remember the quantity of lights that were given off by her clothing. Recollecting it well, the difference between the clothing of the others was that they were very light with pastel colors while her clothing gave off sparks. It was as if the sparks were suspended in the air with lights made up of thousands of colors around her. Little by little, she approached us.

She was about seven meters from where I was with the other person. She wore a jet-black gown that contrasted with the garments of everyone else. It was a long gown, like the ones worn by royalty during the fourteenth or fifteenth century. When she got closer, I could see that her gown shone with a special light. It was like black light. Her gown, seen closer, wasn't made of cloth. It seemed to be made of energy, something very special. When she got right to where we were I could see that her garment or gown was made of thousands of tiny universes or galaxies that got lost in the darkness of the black space of her garment. I think this is going to sound very crazy but that's how it was made. It was as if thousands of universes or galaxies were revolving and revolving around themselves. They revolved around themselves and at the same time, a brilliant light emanated from the breast of that person. Her hair was the color of silver, and she had extremely large blue-gray eyes and an extremely tender countenance. She didn't give the least sign of being angry.

She moved as if floating and when she got to where we were, she raised her hand in greeting. She didn't speak. She seemed to express herself mentally, everything arrived in my mind clearly and I only remember her saying: 'Little mortal, what are you doing in this place. You have commitments to keep in the worlds of time and space.' I didn't know what to say. She was extremely beautiful. She seemed to know everything and this was infused into me. Everyone knew her and seemed to adore her, or rather love her. I was paralyzed, completely paralyzed. I didn't know what to say. She looked at me with much tenderness and taking one of her arms from out of the folds of her clothing, which were more like strands of energy, she touched my shoulder and said, 'Come. It is the will of the Highest that, for some reason, you have come temporarily to this place. Let's find out why.' I asked her, 'Who are you and what will happen to me?' To which she replied, 'Don't be afraid my son. Some day you will return to this place and you, as millions of other creatures of this and other dominions, will begin a journey to know the person who has given you the gift of having your own personality.' 'Who is it,' I asked? She answered, 'You won't understand yet but I can tell you it is he who sustains us with a thought, he who gives light to the suns that they may sustain all created by and in himself.' For my part, I didn't say anything. It is only now, as an adult, that I believe I understand that situation a bit more.

I didn't notice that time transpired. We were in what seemed like an enormous meadow with immense green fields. The colors, above all else, seemed infused with light that gave them an even stronger hue. There was no sun. I looked everywhere but the light seemed to emanate from somewhere or more accurately from everywhere. By taking the being's hand, we arrived at a type of crystal structure. It was made totally of crystal. When I saw it, I thought touching it would break it because it was a very thin crystal. When we entered, I could see that the rooms didn't have brick walls. They seemed constructed of energy or a type of gelatin that shone. They were translucent and I could see through the walls. Inside these walls were other people. They all looked to be adolescents gathered at a round table with one of the beings with the letter M teaching them something. Everybody we ran into in the passages or corridors were very young people.

They seemed to know the person who was leading me by the hand. They all greeted her and I remember that they said to her, 'Glory to the Highest who gave and gives your morning stars.' She responded with a bow. As we were about to arrive at an enormous door we stopped and she said, 'By the will of the Lord we desire to know,' and the doors automatically opened. These doors were also made of energy that looked like gelatin, but they shone brightly. They were the color of blue sky. I touched one of the doors with my hand and a slight shiver went through my body. When I looked at my hand, I wasn't prepared to see through it. I remember that this surprised me so much that I released the hand of the person who was taking me. She immediately touched my head as if caressing me and I felt an enormous peace and comfort. I felt a gentle warmth and peace, much peace.

We went through the door and there appeared an enormous mirror. Very large. Just as we went through the entry, I could see thousands of lights, millions of stars. It was as if they were suspended in space. When the door closed after us, the enclosure remained sealed and the lights began to shine more. Everything seemed to move. I could see that the person who had my hand began to shine more with an enormous intensity. That black light I described she had at the beginning began transforming itself into white light, an enormous white light and emanated from her breast and seemed to communicate with all the other lights. I could only hear whispers until a strong, clear voice said with seriousness, 'The small mortal belongs to a mixture of the blue race and the bronze race and belongs to the universe of things created by Michael de Salgton. He should return.' At that moment, the person who held my hand said to me: 'At some point in your future you will see us here again. Nothing is revealed about your strange appearance in this place. We anxiously await the time when you will be embraced with love by your interior light. Return to your birth world.'

At the moment, these words were uttered I was absorbed by one of the lights and felt that I fell into a kind of void. All the lights shone with such an intensity that everything was white, brilliantly white, until I arrived at the place where I awoke. When I came to, I saw my mother at my side. I didn't know what had happened, I only felt my mouth was dry and was very thirsty. When I recuperated, about thirty minutes later, we left the hospital and I didn't tell anyone what had happened for fear they would think me crazy or that they would make me undergo some painful examination. Now, after years and reflection, I know that what happened was real and I anxiously await the day when my internal light will embrace me and carry me back there once again, but this time, I think, on a journey of no return.

Please compare your vision during the experience to your everyday vision that you had immediately prior to the time of the experience. Colors emitted from everything and people gave off light.

Their faces really shone and I couldn't tell if they were men or women because their faces were very delicate. I remember that they were very tall, about two and a half meters, and were truly Titans. They carried the letter M on their belt buckle, totally stylized. The script shone and constantly changed colors. On one side of their belt, they carried what looked like some kind of very small harp. It seemed they used them for some sort of communication because when someone would approach them to speak they needed those instruments to understand them. There were lights everywhere, of all sizes and brilliant colors of all shades of the rainbow. They seemed to appear and disappear at will. They would draw near to the people and then suddenly disappear.

No había sol pero la luz caia como en forma de oleadas. Habían animales extraños, muy dóciles y cariñosos, no tenían aspecto de ser agresivos, solo metope con algunos, aunque muchos de ellos eran pequeños, recuerdo una especie de pelusa o eriso de mar que llego flotando hasta mis pies. Luego se habrio dejando ver un'specia de animalito con una trompita como de elefante que al momento de tocarla cambiaba de color, cuando quería irse solo se cerrabacomo una concha y empezaba a flotar, parecía que vivían enla copa de los arboles, pues habia muchas de estas "pelusas" caminando en los árboles, lo quele daba a estos una apariencia navideña. Fue chistoso puescuando despegabana o emprendian el "vuelo", muchas hojas en los árboles se acomodaban como queriendo que aterrizasen sobre ellas. Despúes, recorrí unos cuantos metros y llegue hasta donde se hayaba la mujer y los tres seres de aspecto extraño que ya describí a principios de mi relato.

What emotions did you feel during the experience? Joy, peace, love - much love - and I believe it is more than this. Understanding and much peace. A feeling of wellbeing, satiated with wellbeing, as though I lacked for nothing and I truly lacked nothing in that place. Everyone was tremendously nice. When someone saw me, their smiles came simply, truly from the love they felt for others. It seemed that when someone loved another a chain or attachment was formed that multiplied this sensation.
