Turning Tide

The Old Man And I - Two Encounters With Eternity.

Several month after my remarkable encounter with the "old man" I was outside in front of our rented home in Penedo RJ, a marvelous place on earth in front of one of the highest mountains in Brazil (Agulhas Negras). As customary for the region the property was fenced with a 2m high wire-mesh with solid concrete poles in between. Just below our veranda some 20-25 meters away a local earth road passed by and a wooden gate with a nicely made drive ramp connected our house to the road.

Sometimes the local omnibus would stop in front of our house and it wasn't too unusual to find people waiting on the other side of the road waiting for the bus to come.

That night I was outside admiring the full moon while looking to the firmament. Since very little daylight was left the clouds appeared darker as they really are when I saw a strange constellation in the sky. The clouds spared some space between them and that "empty" space took on the shape of a snake. Since some background light was left from the sun the snake appeared white with a golden glare, really beautiful to watch. I looked to the snake for some time with mixed thoughts. Then I moved my eyes away and looked down to the road. And there, just on the other side of the road there was this old man. In that very moment I did not make the thought connection to the old man I met in São Paulo. He was standing there and looked at me. And now I did look at him too. A strange feeling overcame my mind. I decided to walk toward the gate but I could not move my legs.

This was so funny and so serious at the same time that I could not think at all for some time. I just stood there trying to walk, realizing that I could not and somehow I was linking this person I saw down there to this phenomenon.

Then I tried to move backwards and realized that I was able to do so. So I decided to go back into the house and then come back out again. But when I opened the veranda door again the person outside was gone. No omnibus came in the meantime.

One hour later I stepped out of the house again (just to make sure that no further mystery is waiting for me there-lol) on the opposite side of the sky where I had seen the snake the full moon was hidden in those dark clouds. But when I looked up the moon began to shine and light came through the clouds more and more as if the moon would try to free himself from darkness.

During that time of my life I was able to contact a "more advanced" friend of mine living in Switzerland. I told him about the meaning of all this and he gave me his input. If nothing more, his answers supported my belief that I wasn't alone in this world and that there was another plane above us filled with beings who guide us though our life and who are there when we need them.

This initiated my journey into the multidimensionality of our very existence, which I found much better described in later years in Seth's books and in the Elias readings.
