before him clearly outlined, the past, the present and the
future. He now realizes the shadowy nature of the lower
world from which he has just escaped. He beholds its
pitiful limitations, its passing deceptive show, its pano-

"The soul has now seen the three regions above Sach
Khand, and the ruling Purush in each one. He has seen
