Exclusive meetings are held in the private garden called the Atrium on the seventh. The University operates with a great deal of order, consequently, I was instructed to wait for a Votar to escort me to the elevator. Students are not allowed above the third level un-escorted.

I was nervous and excited thinking of my personal meeting with Vayla and Zonh, the Arhalas. With a sense of accomplishment, but more of relief of being chosen as one of the leading students.

Hearing the sharp footsteps of a Votar approaching the arch way of my chamber I arise from an impatient respite. The sound is unmistakable as the metallic fittings in their shoes clicked as they moved over the smooth glass floors of the hallway. I prepared for my counsel looking into the mirror and taking a deep breath and finishing a small glass of pure water. I stood in the arch way as he approached.

The Votar wore the black and dark green shaded suit of the Votar. The suit assists in the fusion of their mind and the integrated biological and electrical circuitry system. His commanding presence created a silence between us. He approached his work with duty and without nervous thought. He approached relaxed, smoothly and with a professional tactfulness.

Good Morning Rysa, It is time, he said in a commanding tone. My name is Nolif, please come with me.

Following Nolif I walked in his shadow. I recall seeing upon my arrival. He stood five inches taller than I. I looked at his uniform seeing the violet and gold emblem of the University emblazoned below his right shoulder.

Are your ready, Nolif asked as I nodded and he placed his ring of authority next to the control panel of the elevator.

Seventh level authorization, he said.

The Votars are interlinked in a communications ring and wear a ring with a seven layer interlocking system grid. The ring contains an integrated technology that is highly advanced and was created through the VOT technology.

A blue violet light flashed in recognition of his authorization and we began to rise upwards.

In a few moments we stopped, I had not the time nor the words to say anything to Nolif but, thank you, as I waited for the doors to open. Nolif held his position at the door as I entered into the Atrium.

Vayla awaited my arrival. As I entered through the doors my knees were a bit shaken but she gave me a big hug and welcomed me to the Atrium. Vayla gazed directly into my eyes as I smiled as the elevator doors closed for its downward descent.

I looked out from this high standard through the spacious windows that stretched upward and above this whole area. It was like being above the clouds even though the building was only seven levels high. Perched upon a hill within Riusm kept the Hyrayarch's presence much larger in actual height than the building represented.

Above me glass wall windows sloped upwards towards a pinnacle high above us. Sun light streamed through in many angles and I could feel the presence, the love, and the beauty of nature. Lanea was honored here in the Atrium.

Vayla holds a deep beauty and commands a strong presence in any room. But with the backdrop of the beauty within the seventh level of the Hyrayarch, the sanctuary itself her presence was overwhelming.

From the stone pathways grass started to creep over the walkways. This is a garden of flowers, of fragrances, of beauty. Another mystery opens before me as this Sanctuary has numerous secrets within it.

Slowly into flawless rapture at the colors of the flora, the music of the birds and the vision of this Garden of Nelan I follow her. Vayla led me into the mist of the overhanging forest of trees and plants. We are walking along a watering system of streams and fountains. The sound is refreshing, bubbling moving closer to the center of the Hyrayarch.

Vayla holds a lovely presence, deep and luxuriant auburn hair, sparkling mysterious absorbing blue eyes and a empathic feminine shapeliness. Vayla's vitality of feminine energy radiates love from her heart. Ageless compassion defines the masters and Vayla is framed by a golden and violet aura.

A gold and ivy covered arch way leads into the Atrium. An abundance of flowers and plants adorn everything under the high glass cathedral of the Atrium. Flowers of every size and description abound with freshness. Green lush vibrant rainbows of dazzling colors stream out from the flora.

The first level is cased in structured discipline and stone columns. Hallways lead from one point to another in a simple and pristine architecture. Here above it all is the luxurious beauty. It is beyond comparison even to the Gardens of Riusm or the forests of Elvaren.

Vayla reached out with both hands to greet me. Taking hold of my left hand she lead me into the lush Atrium. We passed through a dense arrangement of vegetation and moved toward a massive crystal. A fountain of water rushes upward sending streams of water spraying into the air.

The water falls in a mystic veil appearing like a moving mirror. Surrounding the fountain is a pool of crystal clear water covered with water lilies. Vayla was quiet as she held my hand. Slowly we strolled around the pool. The water was extremely clear and pure and the air had a fresh coolness from the spray. This walk was for me to relax. I could feel the kindness of her empathic soul beginning to reach my heart.

Her grasp held my hand tightly as I followed into a courtyard where Zonh waited. Reading a book bound in golden linen and made of white parchment Zonh looked up and greeted us. Vayla sat down across from me without a word as of yet.

The Atrium courtyard provides a comfortable setting to talk, Zonh said, looking straight into my eyes. We are blessed with beauty and peace and we honor your presence with us.

I am speechless, this is inspiring. I said. It is a great honor to be accepted into the seventh level.

We delight in the Atrium and expect you will get to know it very well. Vayla added. You will find the flowers speak to you when you learn how to listen.

Zonh's deep blue eyes roamed. He glanced at Vayla. His image changed to deeper thoughts. He nodded to her as if to proceed.

In a stillness of silence within the watery currents around us Vayla looked to me and together with Zonh we held a moment of tranquility in the Atrium.

Rysa, I will educate you into a new language. It will give you knowledge of Zyan, She said. You will become enlightened and rise beyond what appears. This is the Language of Nelan. It will be given to you as you become ready to see and feel everything around you.

Look at this flower upon the water, its color is golden and white, there are five petals that extend out from the center, Vayla said, as she cradled her hands under the water and around the flower in a loving embrace to show me. In the center there is a seed and it is also the heart. There is stillness in this flower as it absorbs light, water and air. It is grounded by its roots going deep within the pool and it holds it on this place. From above and below it is held in its place.

Each rule of the Hyrayarch is clear and wise but clothed to be understood at the right time. Your intuition will find meaning and translate all the wisdom you need to reach up into higher consciousness. The first rule is you will learn is;

SAON NELAN

PERISANA SOAN

Vayla said these words with reverence and in honor. These words are from the old language, the Language of Nelan.

Be initiated into the mysteries of the Hyrayarch and learn this language. As an adherent your first duty is to communicate with your inner teacher and become aware of this guidance in your meditations. Reach up and touch your higher self. This is your first goal. To know this goal is alignment, to achieve the goal is atonement. Your motive is pure, your power is persistent and your effort is constant.

Vayla held my eyes transfixed as I listened, it seemed simple and difficult, not supernatural as I had thought it might be, but an awareness came over me. This is correct. This awareness comes from deep inside.

You are on the most difficult part of the ladder of evolution. My thoughts were replaced by Zonh's words. Your soul is in deep meditation. Energies are awakening and beginning to emanate inside you. These emanations are increasing in frequency and intensity.

You have faced tests of disgust, dissatisfaction, distaste and a deep fatigue. It is characteristic of the inner changes and it sets the stage to become a Dzyan.

As a Dzyan seek to enter a new field of experience, a new rhythm. This is transition. Choose between spiritual awareness and materialism for self. Your intuition gives you the perimeter of awareness. Your radius of experience grows and you are becoming attuned to the capacity of illumination.

When you begin to learn the symbols you will understand the symbolic understanding of the three worlds of Alonia and their meaning. You will see Rota, Ion and Shalin in their true form manifestations of the astral, mental and etheric levels of experience. The lower nature is revealed and you are made aware of this development. Your obstructions to achievement and blocks to progress are revealed. Your problem is yours alone and so is your purpose. You will learn not to judge and become aligned with your higher self. You will become aware of the plan and the purpose of your life by becoming intuitive.

Rysa, work from above downward, avoid all lower emotional impulses and align your consciousness with the energy coming into your mind from above. Undertake this work to constantly concentrate and communicate with your inner teacher. Hold in steady meditation on the impulses coming from Zyan.

My thoughts were lifted up beyond the threshold of the world. Zonh paused. Destiny was charted for me long before I came to this university. The lack of self-esteem, worthiness, a selfishness left me empty and kept me uneasy. I cannot do this work, it is beyond my ability. The questions the reasons, the purpose are too much for what I can do.

Rysa I can feel your higher self asking for purity and for understanding of your value, Vayla 's quiet words calmly assured me. Assist in the evolution, the doubt which remains can be given away. Your alignment with Zyan gives direction. I am a mirror and give you the direction.

As a Dzyan you learn cycles within cycles, this is the side of the form that causes doubt. By following the narrow path of detachment the form side becomes an area of service. In your pursuit of truth the sensuous side of life is under your control by your ideas, habits of feeling and clear thinking.

Her eyes penetrated my very soul as she looked within me. She continued to speak to my deepest inner self as I could only listen in a semi-trance magnetized with her voice.

Have you ever told the world you love?

Have you ever shown your love in your search for peace, she asked.

Can you show me love?

Yes I feel love and can show you Vayla, I said to her in sincerity that I have not known of myself. I want transcend and find love, to be part of something beyond myself.

Emotion gushed up through my heart and opened it like a refreshing breeze moving through a tree. She held me in that moment not with her arms but with her soul. Her love reached down and picked me up giving me value.

For once love came into me in a deep and true way. A deep need was filled in my heart. I fell into appreciation of her divine encompassing caring, the deepest love I have ever known. She sealed my heart.

Rysa, protect your feelings and emotions. I am here to protect and to seal your heart, she said as her eyes gazed past me. I hold your heart here within the sanctuary. You are held and so you may go on. I do this for you as I am given a great gift. I see you unfold and do a great work this is my blessed desire.

Rysa you are held in the immersed into the golden state of creation in the genesis of purpose.

In that divine thought Zonh began to seal me into the work.

Rysa, these are the rules of Dzyan;

To be in integrity is to have the absolute purity of motive.

This requires you to have the ability to enter into silence, to remain quiescent as life unrolls, and to control thought.

The student adheres to the plan so that he may become the disciple of the path. You must take the oath to guard what you think and learn to constrain negative and poisonous thoughts. You must prevent knowledge from being misused and still your mind in a balanced poised state of equilibrium.

The task of the first rule of Dzyan is to reach to the nucleus of all thought where you may see the unity of your will with Zyan. This can only be done in trust. Sit a moment in silence with us Rysa, then you may return below.

The waters of the fountains fell into the pools and I could hear every drop blend together with others. Feelings, thoughts, impressions of mine and of Zonh and Vayla flowed in the same blending motions of the waters. My mind was opening and my heart was uncovered.

Joy is upward movement, moving upward and through is new energy with every breath. Meditation gives insight into the reasons for grace and peace. I am very young, and I am very old. I am learning how to understand again.

Enter a field and in this field all things are possible. A great plain stretches off forever. In the distance a tall lone, beautiful snow capped mountain. Dark purple sky around sky glowing mystically an aura of lavender, pink and white. Gold emanates from within the center. Circles and spheres of white and gold spin and float above the plains glowing in iridescent clarity. Dimensions expand spacetime, stars shine through the heavens. Galaxies above shine light into everything. Wheat envelops the horizon as a lite breeze blows into my face. It is harvest time. All the wheat is golden. Not one weed is within this field. Pure gold in every direction, every grain is perfect. Beyond stands the mountain in the majestic violet, purple with a pinkish emanations. White snow caps the pyramidal mountain. It expands a presence and looms above in magnificence.

I am this vision, within the fields of dreams, alone in this field. I know others encircle me here. The mountain beacons me closer and closer. Through the fields closer and closer. The mountain rises larger and larger. Its colors are more vibrant.

There is a gathering storm behind me. Giant blackish grey thunderheads whip up and throw of violent sounds. Thunder cracks without lightening. The mountain is a beacon in serene majesty and magnetic inspiration.

Another time, seeing another place, was this experience real? It was simple, yet mysterious confusing as I bring my consciousness back into the Atrium.

In two directions I look out, one looking at a small life going by ever so quickly looking out into the universe like a baby waking from sleep. The inner teacher holds the baby with love and affection ready to teach this young one all there is to know as it grows and becomes.

I see another, wise and old, who has surmounted the mountain and looks back from many views, of many memories.

A third consciousness is surrounded in light, love and intelligence before the thoughts of each emanate. This one is watching all evolution. In unity I sense a higher plan for myself.

Rysa you may return to the here and now when you are ready, Vayla's hand graced my palm with a slight squeeze. Zonh's voice requested my return.

Breathe deeply and exhale. Repeat this three times. As you open my eyes remember your experience and know that you are always within this consciousness.

First breathe back love into your heart center. This is always what you do.

Bring your consciousness to rest within the heart of love and acceptance. Bring yourself a sense of worth.

With your second breath express light from your throat center.

Speak out the truth and feel the vibrations of sound fill the air with truth.

With your third breath and as you bring your consciousness back into your body breathe out through your eyes and ears and send life upward into Zyan.

Bring life and abundance into your mind, feel your mind flower and blossom in every direction.

Feel the petals of imagination grow and hold on to this trifold vision of being grounded in love, expressing truth and creating life.

I opened my eyes to see Zonh looking just as he did before the meditation and Vayla's compassion touched me. I knew myself much better than moments before.

Allow yourself to be centered in this time, Zonh said. With new vision may we see the days unfold before us.

Zonh and Vayla left me with a vision I did not expect to see.

This experience gave me lighter expectations and joyful peace.

The vision gave a magical timelessness in the field. I did not mention my vision only that I experienced a wonderful event. With this thought I went to the elevator with Vayla and thanked Zonh for his time.

As I left the Atrium, its fragrances gave me a complete soothing peace. Ready to continue my lessons with more willingness I learned I can enjoy the discipline and the ecstasy.
