Confronting Your Immortality - living the ascension is the first volume is a series, Essays In Honour Of Our Evolutionary Potential, which explore the experience and significance of ascending into the light body whilst physically incarnate as a human being. As such it falls in line with that ancient tradition of esoteric knowledge and practice which has come down to us through many underground streams from the ancient cultures of Egypt, Greece and further into the mists of unrecorded history where the legends of Atlantis and Lemuria dwell. Briefly surfacing in various mystery schools throughout history before being suppressed or driven underground, it can be recognized in the various societies and brotherhoods such as Rosicrucian, Masonry, Magick and Theosophy. Today, with the modicum of religious and intellectual freedom pertaining throughout the democratic West, its esoteric and occult teachings can be freely exposed, taught and discussed without the charge of heresy hanging over the heads of its adherents. These essays and explorations take place in an atmosphere free of intellectual and spiritual repression, moving the reader beyond fear, doubt and anxiety and into the joy of new discovery. How does it feel to be a free being in an unlimited existence, with eternity to explore the many worlds of manifestation? How does it look from the summit of spiritual expression, with no ideology or dogma to blinker one's vision? These essays, solidly based in the personal experience of mystical and out-of-body states, explore that category-free consciousness in an irreverent and free-wheeling style from a level playing field rather than the heights of assumed accomplishment and pride. What in previous centuries was presumed occult and dangerous is now free and easy for all committed explorers. Confronting Your Immortality is a first step in lighting up that path.
