Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
AE said he never achieved moksha or nirvana, but his 'visions' were somewhat extraordinary and he definitely managed to meet some extremely powerful spirit beings
"I have never had the high vision of those who have gone into the deeps of being and who have returned capture blinded by the glory, and cried out in a divine intoxication to the light of lights 'spread thy rays and gather them. The Light which is the fairest form – I am what He is'. I am a far exile from that great glory, and can but peer through a dusky transparency to a greater light than the light of day"
A description of the experience
George Russell [AE]
I came at last to a vision of beings in flame in some place of wonder in Anima Mundi
