Imagine: an infinite number of versions of you are traveling across countless Ladders of the Universe.

And the Hierarchy of Light Forces are entities that have either reached certain levels of closeness to God or have not created their separation and are not descending the Ladder.

And the Hierarchy of Darkness are those who have distanced themselves from God the most in their wandering along the Ladders of the Universe.

And Angels?

Angels are the qualities of God.

You possess certain qualities that define you as a being and as a person. For example, kindness. Or stubbornness. Or the pursuit of knowledge. Or disbelief. There are many qualities. But your qualities change very often. In the universe, in general, nothing is permanent, but there are some qualities of God that are consistently and steadily inherent in Him. These are Angels, as the embodiment of His qualities.

But you are also an Angel. So, what quality of God do you embody? What you call curiosity. And what place do you occupy on this Ladder of the Universe?

I am the beginning of the steps. The first step—both upward and downward.

But since there is no up or down, but rather a degree of separation from God, I am the beginning of separation from God, I am the first glimmer of God.

But does that mean that if a person returns to God, overcoming the boundaries of themselves, they will sooner or later come to you, as the first step of the Ladder of Separation?

Yes, you’ve understood correctly. That is exactly what happened to Jesus in the desert. He overcame the last—or rather, the first—step and reunited with God. He managed to overcome the illusion of separation and step into the infinity of himself.

So, it turns out you are not to blame for anything? What is guilt? The feeling that you have done something wrong, taken an incorrect action, so much so that you want to fix everything.

So—a feeling that I have taken an inexpedient action, since there is no right or wrong?

No, I didn’t take an inexpedient action, as it led to a new turn in the development of the universe.

But when everything started, I didn’t foresee to what extent the separation from God would reach and what it would lead to.

Isn’t the future known to you?

The future is multi-variant, and it is always in development.

When you plant a seed, you have a general idea of what kind of tree it will grow into. And the tree grows, putting down new roots and branches. But you cannot foresee the fate of every leaf. Some branches may wither or fail to develop, while others may grow excessively, reaching towards the Sun, and so on.

Tell me, is there love among the Dark ones, those who chose separation from God and descent down the Ladder of the Universe?

Love exists everywhere because it is the fundamental creative quality of God, the essence of His creative energy. But, descending down the Ladder of the Universe, this quality seems to weaken. It’s like a bright red color becoming dimmer, murkier, and paler. The further the degree of reflection and distortion, the less love there is as a creative energy.

But then how does the process of creation occur in the dark structures?

It is reversed, mirrored.

Creation above is expansion. Creation below is compression. Two mirror processes because compression is also expansion, but inward.

But more on that later, if you wish. There is still much for you to understand.

Part 4. Light and Darkness. The Illusions of God

Tell me, how did the division between light and dark occur? If each of us is merely a reflection of God, then why is there polarization and opposition?
