Beware of False Light

Ae-Jah El-Rah (narrative #3)

The students began to stir, gathering their cushions, and Kronis walked behind the stone table at the end of the hall to collect the day’s items. Ae-Jah waited for a moment and then approached.

  “Ah, hello young El-Rah, you look like you have a question," inquired Master Kronis looking up, as the last students filtered away down the stone halls to leave for the optional afternoon field lessons and foraging duties.

"Master Kronis?" asked Ae-Jah in a slightly hesitant voice,  “... I was hoping to speak with you... one-on-one ...if that is alright..”

“There is no need to call me Master, all students here are my equals,” answered Kronis in a deep, warm, yet direct voice.  “Of course! I am here to serve your higher education.  Tell me, did you enjoy today's discussion on the attunements for cultivating the light-body?”

Ae-Jah adjusted his robes feeling the cool air circulate against his body and feeling the cool stone floors under his bare feet.  “Yes,” he said, not knowing how to proceed to the questions on his mind. “..I have been doing the visualizations on my own as you instructed, but... well... I can only hold the awareness of the blue flame in my aura for ten breaths at a time. I find my concentration is easy to wander during meditation.”

“Ah! Well ten breaths is an achievement!” said Kronis with deep nod, but then rose his finger to make a sudden point “-but let me remind you, it should take very little effort. The best way to invoke the blue flame and open your body vessel to the healing ray is to meditate on complete awareness of your natural state of being. In that way the blue flame is always available, then if you do the mudras.. Like so, [he made the diamond mudra over his heart and then spread his arms wide] your aura becomes large and clear, and the blue flame radiates effortlessly.”

Ae-Jah knew what Kronis meant. He had heard the words before, and yet.. he wished he could learn it faster. “I can feel it when the light-body is activated. It is like a field of blue magnetic energy around my body.”

“Ah yes. Well blue is only one of color-rays of the divine light of which a soul can emanate through. In Old Pleiadian the word is ‘El-rah’ or ‘blue ray.’ It tends to be the predominant ray of the healer. And so now I ask you a question to help you go deeper for you-who-wears-the-blue-robes: what does blue feel like to you?

“It feels, well... cooling.. refreshing.. like mental clarity.. like being within a bubble of soft liquid energy. The color of water and the color of the blue sky. … and.... well. I feel it most often in my most private of moments -like music in my dreams! But, I wish to know how to maintain it always! to have that field of awareness and carry it around with me! 

“You are most astute to notice that it comes in the most private of moments, for that is when you are most vulnerable and willing to let the universe flow through you.  There is a change in you perspective of thinking that is required to more fully attune to your light-body frequencies in your day to day life – but I tell you, it is quite possible. And in my experience, very probable! Once the process is started, it cannot be stopped, for there is no denying the universe’s desires to flow through your vessel, -not now, not after you have and felt the blue fame in your dreams.”

“A change in thinking? I think I understand that you are pointing to.. I must be more flexible, and more patient with my meditation .... Soon I must come to feel it in my waking states as well. The problem is, I have been feeling restless.  And well... During meditation ... I well...” He didn’t know how to proceed, and there were other questions he had on his mind.

“I sense something personal is on your mind.. ?” Kronis opened his pose to indicate receptive listening.  

“I was hoping to hear your wisdom on some specific personal matters...” Admitted Ae-Jah.

“Yes!” Said Kronis with a smile and a flourish of his hand beckoning Ae-Jah to come closer. “Would you care to accompany me on a short errand while we discuss what is on your mind? Perhaps a stretch of your legs will limber you and introduce a state of flow to your mind?”

Ae-Jah realized his body was a bit stiff from standing, and took a easy pose of agreement.

Kronis gathered a few scrolls from the stone table, then turned and beckoned Ae-Jah to follow. Ae-Jah fell in next to him, and their robes swished softly as they walked through the arches and pillars and down the long hall towards the green fields outside. Kronis kindly prompted Ae-Jah: “Ah well ...what it is that is on your mind then? ...is it something you experienced during your meditations?” 

“I have been doing the exercises in private as you have been teaching... yet, lately during meditation I have been seeing a blue fleck of light out of the corner of my eyes. ...I am wondering what that means.. Is it safe?”  Ae-Jah didn't mention the book he taken from the libraries, and the strange lettering on its pages.

“Ah yes.. Symptoms of light body activation... It is good to speak of such matters, so that we can gain clarity.  Well let me have a look at your eyes.”  Kronis stopped to looked at Ae-Jah’s face, putting his thumb gently against Ae-Jah's eyelid and peering underneath the membrane. “Ah.. Yes! Your eyes seem healthy, just as I expected. What you have is a ‘loomus!’”

“A Loomus? What is a loomus?”

“When one’s light body expands -as you have been cultivating- quite naturally the visual centers of the brain begin to perceive of the activities in the auric field.  You realize your aura is a very important environment of activity don’t you? -All matter of going-ons happen within one’s aura -activities that often would otherwise remain unconscious.” Kronis stepped back and blessing Ae-Jah’s temple reassuringly, before they continued walking. “It could be any number of things.  It could be a spirit helper, a past life memory, or the spirit of a yet-to-be-born.  It is what the adepts of old have often referred to a ‘loomus.’  Why do you ask? Is it causing you any trouble?

“Well sometimes I get a bit of a dizzy feeling and yet nothing painful.” Ae-Jah remembered some of he reasons he hand come to the temple in the first place. “I remember having it as a child some, but now it is quite frequent.”

“Well perhaps it is trying to tell you something.”

Ae-Jah nodded. “You are very wise.. I hope to learn what you have learned... I have much to learn from you still.”

“Ha...” Laughed Kronis again, then he said suddenly, “I have spied you frequenting the libraries. Is there something you have been especially searching for?

Ae-Jah was caught off guard by the question.  He remembered the book with the strange symbols. He momentarily looked away from the monk’s eyes, not wanting the monk to know he had surreptitiously borrowed the book from the old sections of library. He thought of strange archaic symbols printed upon the thin withered pages... He said cautiously, “-kundalini?  I wonder ... How does operates in the body?”

Kronis gave him a soft knowing look, and Ae-Jah could see that the monk had noticed his apprehension. “Kundalini is one of the pillars of the teachings of the Old Pleiadians,” Kronis answered slowly,  “How is your snake handling going?  Do you enjoy your assigned duties as snake guardian? They will help you understand the movements of kundalini in a very natural way.  How do they make you feel?”

“I love the way they move. The feeling of their scales on my hand is... well... the way they move in the water pools.. it is just like how they enter my dreams at night. ..that is when I can hear their thoughts. They fill my mind with wonder...” Ae-jah couldn’t help but betray his keen curiosity on the subject.

Master Kronis smiled, “Yes they will do that.” Then he looked at Ae-Jah with piercing eyes and said, “Your will is strong, young Ae-Jah, I can feel it. I can see into your aura. I see your heart-flame like a candle flame burning inside.” His gaze was unwavering, and the young Pleiadian knew there could be no keeping secrets from this man. He felt heat rising in his body.  It was hard not to look away.  Kronis continued, “I must warn you: In your quest for self-knowledge, be aware of false light.  The light of your own aura coming to rest upon it’s own still point within is your own portal of consciousness, -that is the only light you should follow completely. Come to me if you need any assistance, or if there is something special you are seeking.”

Ae-Jah didn't know if he should be afraid of what Kronis was saying. He simply nodded, yet on the inside he balked.   But is not all light of the one god-source? he wondered to himself.  His mind was full of ideas.  Beware of false light?!  -Surely such a statement is simply a euphamism...  He looked at his feet.    

-Master Kronis raised a sharp eyebrow.  "Do you understand that what I am saying truth of great importance?  Premature exposure to false light creates a special kind of cancer of the mind.  -Yes, the true nature of your soul is eternal, but the seeking physical immortality is a dangerous pursuit!"

Ae-Jah thought of his studies, his ambitions, and of the mysteries he wished to one day experience.  he suddenly felt like he was treading on thin ice.  He looked at his feet trying to hide his secret thoughts.  He simply nodded.                        

They walked on silent through hallways of gigantic stone blocks, until they came directly into the sunlight. Pillars of the temple rose high on two sides and the various adjoining buildings of stone made a half circle around the green field. The temple was build upon the top of a green gentle hill. Far off in the distance beyond the trees the sun shone off glimpses of an ocean.  They walked slowly passing groups of students with foraging baskets. Off on the side two children clacked wooden sticks together in play, with shouts of “-kai -kai -kia!” They made their way along the path behind the temple to the green field of grass atop the hill where the free-use scout craft were stationed. Simple smooth domed saucers were nestled amongst the green grass in quadrants of stone ley-lines.

 “Do you wish to accompany me to the galactic exchange center to pick up my brother Jedora? It will just be a quick jaunt.. I don't plan on staying long.. just a few errands."

Ae-Jah was temped.. But he had been to the galactic exchange center before and didn't like the strange smells.  Something made him feel like staying. Kronis had given him a lot to think about.

“Maybe I would accompany you another time, master Kronis.  I will stay here, I think, and meditate upon what you have said. I will go tend the snakes to night. ...And tonight I will look at the statues in the garden, read the cohens that are inscribed in the stones.” Ae-Jah bowed.

“Alright,” said Kronis, bowing and clasping Ae-Jah's hand briefly before ascending into the small craft. The warm sensation of his hand lingered long after the craft had dissipated floating over the hillside. 

For a moment Ae-Jah simply looked up at the blue cloudless sky and the green landscape, and the far off light of the sparkling ocean. This land was like Atlantis, he thought remembering the historic earth-images of the temples library’s holographs.  

Hmmmm, thought Ae-Jah. I am a strange Pleiadian man, leading a strange Pleiadian life ... A loomus in my eye.. snakes to tend... ..and unknown experiences ahead.. Ah the life of a Pleiadian.. Yet he wondered how long his restless feet would allow him to stay in one spot.  He looked at the sky and said silently:  Dear universe I allow for you to move me as you move through me.
