is the seven-headed beast. Astonishing, how unusual!” And it feels as if, these
last six months, I’m becoming the Spirit, but always some different one, one of
these seven. And when it goes out, it’s as if I become the shadow of this Spirit.
And I’m as if now dark, now bright: now lamp number one, now darkness
number one, now lamp number two, now darkness number two. And it’s as if
I freed myself from darkness number two, and lamp number two opened up to
me. Then I freed myself from darkness number three, and lamp number three
opened up to me. And it’s as if I’m thus now light, now darkness — but from this
these worlds unfold. And Big Alexander says: “Yes, you’re unfolding, unfurling.”
Something like that — that such a process is happening, that everything’s fine. I
feel it. And now the way I feel myself, and the fact that now this channel into my
head, as in childhood, the energy comes like a column, and now I feel that my
head is connected to something, and the energy goes through the whole body,
and my body dissolves. Possibly this is precisely, maybe, the main Spirit. You see,
I always spoke this way about every Spirit, but you see, there are many of them.
But this is some new, next level. If, precisely by the plot, by the novel “Alternative
History,” in the eleventh volume, I’m now passing through these steps, I’m on
some next step, it’s some next Spirit. But before, when I’d only just appeared, I
was already like this, but I’m returning to it.
