I noted this down, and it raised many questions that I needed to confirm and explore further. After all these notes, I understood that the flow of information was overwhelming – there were no words to describe it, and everything felt chaotic because there was disorder everywhere. My task was to bring order to it. I started calling the Mystic-Old-Man to guide myself, to ensure that I was on the right path before continuing to dig deeper.
And the first question I asked the Mystic-Old-Man was about the difference between the underworld and the realm of the dead: is there a difference or not? Because I could clearly see that they were already something separate. He spoke about a “point of interaction,” saying that they are different but there is a connection – a kind of overlap. It’s as if they are the same, yet also different. This is exactly what I focused on when I began reading about the ancient Egyptian gods. It was written there that under “Anubis, they understand the horizontal circle that separates the invisible part of the world, called Nephthys, from the visible part, which they named Isis.” I saw it exactly this way. What’s even more interesting is that when I later spoke with the Mystic-Old-Man, he confirmed this too. I asked him the same question, and he said it’s like some kind of foam. As if there’s something that floats here but exists both there and here, as if part of it is transmitted from here to there and part of it from there to here, manifesting simultaneously in both realms. I found this incredibly curious – though perhaps it’s better to go step by step. The essence of what the Mystic- Old-Man said was: sort of yes, sort of no. And I began to understand that yes, the fifth volume is indeed a separate topic – life after death. What I wrote in the fourth volume about the underworld, that is one of three moods in which people live, this social-material world in which we live is divided into three parts – sky, earth, and underworld. But there is something otherworldly, like the other side of the coin – it’s something entirely different and separate. It’s something else entirely, distinct and apart. I noted this down.
Then I asked a question about friends, providing examples: when one person dies, they see one thing, while another sees something entirely different. The Mystic-Old-Man then began talking about time – why it stretches for children but speeds up for adults. He explained that this faster time somehow merges with light. When a child is born, their perception of time is slow because they are still connected to the other side, to their past life. If this speed doesn’t
