[ENCOUNTER SERIES] [OUTWARD STONE] STAGE V | STATION 3 (DIVINE DARKNESS): Ephemeral beings shimmer at the far horizon of consciousness, silhouetted against the vibrant colours of a cosmic sunrise. This represents the Encounter of the Second Kind—the first contact with Universal Nature. The distance of the beings and the ‘twilight’ light of the Godhead signify that the seeker has reached the edge of the personal world and is now witnessing the vast, shimmering inhabitants of the Divine Darkness.
