Book excerpt: Norwegian healer and clairvoyant Are Thoresen invites us to accompany him on his further travels on the Northern path of initiation. Having previously traversed the realms of the elemental world, he now takes us to the astral regions and Devachan, where we meet a series of extraordinary entities, culminating in a dialogue with the Antichrist and an exploration of the sublime spheres of the Time Spirit, Michael. Thoresen contrasts Vidar's path – 'through the mysteries of the spirit' – with 'the mysteries of the earth', and discusses the differences between the Vidar and Michael paths. Guided by Scythianus, he is introduced to Ymir, the Spirit of the Earth – a being who has been in existence before earthly time began. Ymir reveals the earth's twelve layers, where the cosmic entity Anna is to be found. Known in history as the grandmother of Jesus, Anna represents the feminine aspect of the path into devachanic realms. Through her portal, Thoresen enters the higher spiritual worlds, where he receives teaching on the true mission of the human being. Meeting Michael brings to culmination the trilogy that began with Travels on the Northern Path of Initiation (2021) and Encounters with Vidar (2022).
