The realm of the deepest Yogic attainemt is 'earned' by living a moral life, by selfless work (free of charge), by dealing with/healing psycho-emotional traumas & developmental needs and taking up some kind of spiritual practice. . .(and) at some point, the impulse to submit one's will to the Divine Will, and then invoking the Holy Spirit/the Shekinah Glory/the Goddess Kundalini/ Christ/ Kwan Yin, etcetera, *for its 'Support'* arises spontaneously.
Developmental (evolutionary) stages can't be skipped - and what I share is definitely not everyone's cup of tea, because it is written from the: 'Immortal being (fully ascended Soul) became a vehicle of Consciousness/Divine Transcendent Source-Condition of everything that's arising' , perspective.
The life-mind preoccupied with other matters is not ready for this type of spiritual life - and it is perfectly fine with me, from the: 'been there, done that', perspective. I don't wish to convince anyone what I share is true. I don't wish to instruct others what to do/practice, because at this stage the Divine Grace is in 'charge'. I say, 'find out for yourself and lets compare notes'.
My intent in bearing witness to what happens on the Path without a map is to 'show' (unpack decades worth of Yogic science data confirmed by those who are qualified) what needs to happen before one becomes 'ready' for the descent *via the Crown chakra* of (divine) Peace, the descent of Force or Power, the descent of Ananda. . .which one feels in every fiber of one's being as Bliss unchanging, and with spiritualized consciousness sees *via open Third Eye on the subtle and very subtle levels* its Influence in a form of an aura-field of Light around head/body 24/7, and the kind of Peace and Bliss that passes human comprehension (final Samadi).
Many years ago (already premanently established 1994) I named the Golden Light aura and next-to-skin a narrow band of Blue Light (seemless) 'Heavenly Robe'. . .and thought one day I will discover in some esoteric book these Lights' significance. Years passed before I saw Aurobindo's statements on what the various Lights (including 'diamond white', and 'silver ray'), represent. And, if anyone wonders what it 'felt' like to have 'by fluke' discovered these (uncreated) Lights, I say 'as normal or as natural as eating breakfast.' . . . And when I read that Aurobindo said that the, "Blue is Krishna's special and significant colour, the colour of his aura when he manifests - that is why he is called Nila Krishna. + Krishna is not the supramental Light. The descent of Krishna would mean the descent of the overmind Godhead preparing, though not itself actually, the desent of supermind and Ananda. Krishna is Anandamaya; he supports the evolution through the overmind leading towards Ananda", I thought, 'this makes perfect sense'. Again, 'nothing special, just something that makes sense'.
Anyone whose Karma placed on same 'status', would have the same reaction. In other words, anyone who realizes 'I was born with unbroken continuity of awareness', would know we 'earned this' by sumbmitting our lower nature to the Lord of Ananda in previous incarnations.
World's great wisdom traditions have differnt names for this Light Body, and today I am happy to quote from article penned by John White, titled: Enlightenment and the Body of Light, descriptions for 'Light Body' in different wisdom traditions.
"Some of the names given to the body of light are as follows:
* In the Judeo-Christian tradition, it is called "the resurrection body" and "the glorified body." The prophet Isaiah said, "The dead shall live, their bodies shal rise" (isa, 26:19). St, Paul called it "the celestial body" or "spiritual body".
* In Sufism it is called "the most sacred body" (wujud al-aquadas) and "supercelestial body" (jism asli haqiqi).
* In Taoism, it is called "the diamond body," and those who have attained it are called "the immortals" and "the cloudwalkers"."
* In Tibetan Buddhism it is called "the light body." * In Tantrism and some schools of yoga, it is called "the vajra body," "the adamantine body,: and "the divine body."
* In Kriya yoga it is called "the body of bliss."
* In Vedanta it is called "the superconductive body."
* In Gnosticisim and Neoplatism, it is called "the radiant body."
* In the alchemical tradition, the Emerald Tablet calls it "the Glory of the Whole Universe" and "the golden body." The alchemist Paracelsus called it "the astral body."
* In the Hermetic Corpus, it is called "the immortal body" (soma athanaton).
* In some mystery schools, it is called "the solar body."
* In Rosicrucianism, it is called "the diamond body of the temple of God."
* In Old Persia it was called "the indwelling divine potential" (fravashi or fravarti).
* In the Mithraic liturgy it was called "the perfect body" (soma teilion).
* In the philosophy of Sri Aurobindo, it is called "the divine body, : composed of supramental substance.
* In the philosophy of Teilhard de Chardin, it is called "the ultrahuman."
Further, John White writes: "The traditions speak of the process in different ways. Is the immortal body created or released, attained or manifested? Is it preexistent within the individual and the gross matter body simply "burnd" away? Or is the gross matter of the body altered through a process not yet recognized by physical science, which changes atoms of flesh into something unnamed on the Periodic Table Elemnts? Is there more than one route to the final, perfected form of the human body-mind? Is it necessary to actually die biologically, or is there an alternate path to the light body that bypasses physical death?
These are provocative questions which remain to be explored. However this state is achieved, the perfected individual is then capable of operating within ordinary space-time through that altered vehicle of consciousness which is immortal. That vehicle of consciousness is no longer carbon-based as is biological flesh. Rather, it is composed of a finer, more ethereal form of energy substance unknown to conventional physics, but long known to metaphysics and higher mysticism. That condition is, for the individual, the most exalted stage of higher human development; for humanity in general, it is the final stage of evolution."
So there we have it. Good questions. . .which one who attains the 'Immortal Soul' status, can answer in detail.
I tried to find John White on the internet and failed. I made several attempts to contact other (authors) scholars who study world's wisdom traditions and failed. I know already, even if I did find/made contact, they wouldn't be able with the mind's intellect accept my Depth data's 'results'. I know this would happen, because I have engadged scholars who studied 'wisdom traditions' in Facebook Group, who ended up blocking me. . .These guys (several men who blocked me) in their podcast bubbles with like-minds say things like: 'it will be thousands of years before we know the ultimate Truth.'
How dare I, a female, and a big nobody who doesn't shower them with praises, dares to bother the big shots! how dare I waste their time?
I am grateful for Sri Aurobindo, who knew that the Guardians of Light, know our moral duty is to obey the inner call of our vocation, no matter what! We crave not 'recognition' from anyone. . .and, instead, enjoy supporting like-minded 'Light Guardians'.
Will end this riff on something Aurobindo said with regard to, 'Trust the Divine Will and its Support'. . .without which our life would be unbearable:
"It is only divine love which can bear the burden I have to bear, that all have to bear who have sacrificed everything else to the aim of uplifting earth of its darkness towards the Divine. The Galileo-like 'I don't care' would not carry me one step; it would certainly not be divine. It is quite another thing that enables me to walk unweeping and unlamenting towards the goal." + "One cannot be said to be in the full Yogic condition - for the purpose of this Yoga - if one cannot take up with willingness any work given to one as an offering to the Divine."
