I haven't read everything posted here, but I get the gist of what you people are creating, and I like the idea.

A few comments on the issue of heirachy. I think that there are definite 'levels' to spiritual growth and that that to me is a truth. I also like the idea of yoda's of a circle because the levels can be thought of in terms of 'expansion' 'extention' into the next level.

For many years I have tested myself in a spiritual way and have experienced expanding or going into another level. Everything changes, and the new level is different and extends into and includes the other levels (not necessarily 'lower')

I have a few key books that I read and re-read. When I move (or expand) in consciousness I understand at a new level and there is info I'd never noticed before!

Another good example I use to explain moving to a new level is of 'climbing the hill, climbing out of the valley, and looking down on the activities below. Watching the street fighting! But not being part of it. Observing. Images convey so much more than words and are multi-dimensional.

I love all the ideas here, and I myself would enjoy a sort of 'testing' of spirit to see where I was at. As someone else has stated, ones 'inner self' reveals where we are at, but it would be fun to try this sort of thing on the forum

When a person is at a certain level they cannot 'see' the next level at all. They cannot even form the questions that relate to a higher level. Those beings at more expanded levels can 'see' all of the lower levels and none of the ones that they are yet to expand into. Spiritual growth is ongoing and ones "inner Self" knows when the person is ready to move. Nobody gets to go to where they have not passed the 'tests' to go. Forget equality, we only get what we deserve. We have equal "potential" to be or do anything, and advanced beings have always tried to help us in our evolution on this planet.

Keep up the good work guys. I am very interested in what you are proposing.

Love and Light
