Soon they had reached again the silvery gate with the golden trident in the silvery moon; they went through and entered the colourfully scintillating golden bridge, which led further aloft. “The outer, silvery prong of the trident, which shone again towards us at the door, probably points at the snow-white forces of the joy of life which had embraced me so powerfully only a moment ago,” thought Mani. “The opposite, golden prong of the trident then hints at the golden forces of the radiant happiness of life which still reverberate within me so delight-giving; and the middle, golden-silvery prong apparently symbolizes the powers of the middle between these two fullnesses of bliss of the cosmic moon- and sun-forces which are superior to the two wealthes, and which enable all the other youths to go through this castle without the slightest obstacle.” “In
the sixth tower here those almighty cosmic forces dominate, which govern
god-consciousness so powerfully,” explained Sol. “But from time to time the refined waking or dreaming state of consciousness arise from this pure consciousness, shining like snow in the sun; and to the observer, who continuously remains in the experience of the day-bright snow-white transcendental consciousness like in unbounded bliss, his very subtle thoughts, lighting up in golden sunlike splendour, appear like bright images of infinite beauty. These heavenly images then gild the snow-white, twinkling and glistening moon-brightness of pure consciousness - like the golden sunlight outshines the silvery-white shining moon. “When the thoughts arise from the pure lightfield of transcendental consciousness and forcefully drag the senses of perception - which so far nourished blissfully and refreshed themselves infinitely from the white-shining nectar of the transcendence - with them into the more golden regions of thinking where the sun of self-consciousness shines, then in the light of this inner sun of life, in the process of the free formation of conscience, the senses are additionally nourished by the golden light. Thus they keep their gates of perception open - like before at the threshold to transcendence. |
