While I was passing the ritual of arcane 13 with my benefactor Flornoy, it allowed me to find no less than 23 previous lives, and some fragments of other lives. At the time, I was sure that I had lived those lives, as they resonated deeply within me. I am less sure now: I lean more towards parallel lives.
Yet the precise moment of incarnation, I have lived it many times. Would I have known if I am still living parallel lives?
The Between-Two-Lives
The abstract phase that separates two incarnations, I named it so, BTL, between-two-lives. When I was not incarnate, I floated in a non-temporal place — where nothing was perceptible in any way. No environment, no duration. Nobody. An empty non-time non-place.
The in-between lives resemble old age. No visit, no meeting, no landscape, no music. One becomes deaf, blind, bitter, without a friend, without love. One drags oneself, one is only suffering and frustration. The memory of the beautiful days is the worst ordeal we have to endure.
But no, the in-between lives do not cause suffering. How could this motionless void? The in-between lives is serene indifference, detached, returned from everything. Of memories, we have hardly any. The lives before are erased. We will have to reincarnate to find them. The surrounding void is also inside.

Old Age, here it is:
Traveling through this world below
There is no sickness, no toil, no danger
In that bright land to which I go
I’m going there to see my father
And all my loved ones who’ve gone on
I’m just going over home
I know my way is hard and steep
But beauteous fields arise before me
Where love is felt, my joy is deep
I’m going there to see my mother
She said she’d meet me when I come

And death, there it is:
— Death is nothing, said Verdoux. It’s the approach of death that is terrifying. From start to finish, she replies: “If before coming into the world, we felt the approach of life, we might be terrified as well.”
Dialogue excerpt from the (very beautiful) film by Charles Chaplin, Monsieur Verdoux.
The Spiral of Incarnation
Is the coming into the world felt by the newborn as a terrifying experience? Not at all. After the in-between lives, inevitably, comes a new incarnation. I relived several when I remembered my previous lives. The motionless and vacant being that stagnates in the inter-life is suddenly called by an irresistible force. He then begins a spiral descent that brings him to a certain couple who makes love. It then enters the uterus of the future mother where it takes place in the egg at the precise moment of its fertilization. Here is the unfolding of the spiral of incarnation as I have lived it several times.
Unbeknownst to us, we’ve all been there. If we forget it, it comes from an accident that usually occurs around the age of three. Psychic, emotional or physical accident, we are all confronted with this ordeal, the basic engram that completely upsets our way of living.

Awake From Birth
The being who incarnates in the egg is awake. Birth does not tarnish his awakening. The first three years of his life, the being is in paradise. Why observe with fascination and love the very young children? They are an image of perfection. Clumsy, sometimes violent, they learn the subject.
How hard and painful this material is! How heavy! We must lift it, resist the gravity that will eventually pull us into the grave.

Life Ahead of You
But the young being is not there, with some exceptions. He has his life ahead of him. He will encounter a host of difficulties that are as many trials. The number of concepts and behaviors that he must acquire and memorize in the first thirty months of his life is beyond imagination. Language learning is not the most difficult. some babies learn several languages at the same time, and contrary to what was still believed in the sixties, it doesn’t harm their language fluency. On the contrary. These children will have a certain gift for languages.
With some exceptions, I was saying. When I wrote that the baby has his life ahead of him, the exception is death at a very young age. What despairs those who love him.
But it’s sad only for them. The little missing is not to be pitied. Before three years, he is still awake. If he incarnated in this egg, it is because he must live a very short life, for a completely internal reason.
For example, thanks to multiple incarnations, the being had already experienced everything in human life. He only had one obscure point left: intrauterine life and birth. He needed to relive that to understand and progress. As soon as it was done, he flew away to the suite …
The Path of Awakening
The path of awakening has been known for much longer than the Greco-Roman Antiquity. It is neither more nor less the path of the initiatory Tarot, which is improperly called the Tarot of Marseille. There are several perfectly recognizable arcana engraved in the stone of Egyptian monuments, particularly in Denderah.
It turns out that the Templars and their emulators, the Teutonic Knights,see below had a great practice of this ‘game’, which before being an opportunity to win in the gambling dens, was for a long time an object of meditation and inner progress.
You will find in the following links something to understand about what this inner path consists of.

It will be noted that there is a Zen tale in Japanese culture that describes this same path, in 10 stages instead of 22. It is called the Ten Bulls. But the resemblance cannot be fortuitous. I have adapted it under the title Ten Blue Tigers.

Death in Droplets
I just had a NDE. near death experience. Another one! Too troubled, I reread these articles:
Initiatory Death – You, Your Double, Your Death – The Hidden Death – Mortal Remorse – Deadly Ark – The Kingdom of the Dead – The Descent Into Hell – Love Song To Death – Your Death For Avisor – Near Death Experience – When Death Comes — Mortal Gods
… It didn’t calm me down. None has given me the peace to which I aspire, but possessed by a powerful vortex of energy I cannot restrain my enthusiasm, en-theos, which literally means raptured in God.
Awakening does not preserve excesses, I know something about it, I who had the unexpected chance not to lose my natal awakening at three years old or at any other age. At 12 years old, I evangelized my uncles and aunts in family gatherings, they listened to me open-mouthed and took me in their arms. At 15 years old I healed my scout brothers by passing their hand on the wounds that disappeared immediately. At 35 years old I was healing deadly diseases by taking the sick in my arms, chakras against chakras.
That’s what an awakened person can do. Awakening is the optimal condition of a human being.
The Arcane 13
Whatever happens, whether you are divine or human, plant or animal, ultimately death is your fate. No one escapes it, plant, animal, evolved being. All this ends up in the trash, unless you know the initiatory death represented by arcana 13, which has no name. Some tarots drawn by ignorant people have called it Death, it is a gross error. Arcane 13 is life on the contrary. Real life rid of the various obstacles and blockages.
What made the Teutonic Knights say this powerful aphorism:
The only one who dies, at this level, is the ego. What the ancients called the little master.
He takes himself for the boss, runs everything, governs and subdues the noblest impulses to turn them into a vile bloody mess.
If the ego is vital at the beginning of life, it becomes a formidable obstacle on the path to enlightenment. To wake up completely, you have to wring his neck.
The tarot of Jean Dodal is certainly the most initiatory. Like many others, it was restored by a contemporary master cartier,
the initiate Jean-Claude Flornoy (1950-2010) who was my friend and benefactor.
Temperance and Power
After the arcane 13, the path accelerates. It is the new life, the one that leads to awakening. The arcane 14 Temperance tries to calm the enthusiasm of awakening, in vain as far as I am concerned. Thanks to my benefactor, the Passing Master Jean-Claude Flornoy, arcanum 13 freed me from painful fragments that prevented me from being fully awake. This heady, indescribable sensation hardly predisposed me to Temperance…
The arcane 15 may be called The Devil, it also has nothing diabolical. It is the rise of powerful energy from the kundalini that circulates from chakra to chakra, now that there are no more engrammic obstacles on its path. She opens them all, except the ultimate, the fontanelle, whose opening in large signifies awakening.
La Maison Dieu / The Tower
Awakening occurs at arcana 16 La Maison Dieu, which the ignorant have named The Tower, or even worse, The Tower of Destruction. A fucking nonsense! La Maison Dieu means awakening, implies enthusiasm, calls ecstasy.
The presumed “destruction” is a flash of pure light that unites the being with his heavenly true nature. The flesh-colored Tower figures sushumna, the inner path of the Kundalini, suddenly connected to Heaven, to the Divine. Flash, awakening, ecstasy.
Awakening cannot manifest in a being still filled with ego. One must choose: unconditional love or ego. The two cannot coexist with anyone. Those who receive the awakening after a work on themselves, in consciousness and in full knowledge of the inner path, these can maintain the state of awakened and use the powers associated with it.
