I participated in an exercise where we were to imagine going through a door of death.  We were to visualize what was on the other side.  I visualized a long black and red spiraling tunnel tilting to the left.  Ananda (my spirit guide) and Thai (my favorite, now deceased dog) were there to greet and welcome me.  Then we turned into balls of light and zoomed through the tunnel into space.  There were stars everywhere.  It was beautiful and quite overwhelming.  Then there appeared four or five other lights.  They were the masters who had advised me before I entered into my present embodiment.  They all congratulated me.  I felt as though I was at a graduation.  I looked back on my life.  I could see pain, but I now saw it as insignificant because I had made it through.  Here I was – a success!  I was very happy.

Then I remember going even beyond the stars where there were clouds and a blue sky.  I believe that I had another purpose as a ball of light, but I don’t remember what it was.
