I had the opportunity in the exercise of "Meeting Aesclepius" to unite with my grandfather. I always looked up to him as a leader of the family but also as a kind and compassionate human being. He had a very deep and firm voice and a singing voice that was like the bass of the choir in heaven. This exercise called for me to visualize a wise and compassionate person and I chose him. I had trouble with the visualization at first. I was able to finally get his silhouette. When the time came for me to pull the white ray from his head/mind, I was able to do it and I was connecting with his character. The things that were drawing me was his kindness and love for people, his incredible work ethic and his love for being with and doing for family. This was a man with many values. When I drew to the light of our mouths, I was connecting with his eloquent speach and grammer; the clearness of his voice and speaking with a volume that was never left to question what was said. The white light of the heart sort of made me feel deeper and calmer. This loving spirit is one that would made everyone feel included. I also started to feel the loving spirit in my body. I did not experience this in the body as deeply as I would like, but I did experience it. I will look forward to getting to a place where I am the river connecting to the deep ocean.
My grandfather is in heaven now and I wonder if he was here with me. I felt a closeness that I haven't felt with him in a long time. For the first few years after he died, I communed with him on occasion. I'm thankful for this experience.
