side, the foolish version of you, the dark version of you, the sinful or sinless version — this can be thought of in another way. All these versions are essentially time, physically. There’s the you in the future, the you in the past, and the you in the present. And you can activate any version of yourself right now within you, summon it. And it’s probably amazing to awaken the version of yourself from the future, where you are super evolved. You know, here’s the thing: the version of you from the future appears in you now, and you come back to that same question people often have. You want to cling to everything, you want to grab it and define it, thinking that if you’ve grabbed something, it’s yours — you’ve placed it in your pocket, and it’s that simple. But it’s not that simple. You want to think that if a version of you from the future appears in you, you start worrying, “Where’s the old me, the beloved selfish one?” Well, that’s the ego talking. Ego raises such questions, ownership starts forming in people. And you worry about, “Where is my ‘me’?” You want all the freedom, you want to be you, I, I, I. But then, you start accepting it more easily, realizing that you, you, are here and now. Yes? Yes, you might have one mood, another, a third, different versions of yourself, but it’s all still you, not someone else. You see, you want to think that if there’s a rotten apple on the table, and you replace it with a fresh one, the rotten apple must go somewhere, that it’s separate. You ask me where the rotten apple will go if a new one appears. And I’m telling you that the apple itself, the rotten one, doesn’t disappear; it simply transforms into something new. It’s still you — it doesn’t go anywhere, don’t worry about yourself. So, you will have the same consciousness, but just at a different level, at the level of the Spirit. It’s like you from the future, the best version of you. You can activate it within yourself, awaken it through certain actions, virtues, and hard work. Hard work, above all, helps the most.

Question: You write about how you spoke with the Mystic-Old-Man and mentioned that the planet has a twin. Is that really true? How did you understand it at that time?

That’s exactly how I understood it — though not physically, again, not literally. It meant something more like a parallel reality, a multiverse. It’s like I described a bubble within a bubble, where there are transitions. So, for example, a person of instinct is one bubble, but another bubble, say a person of mind, enters it by
