In conclusion, your tale of 'The Dark One' cannot be the 'Lucifer' it (or you) claim(s) to be.

I'm very interested in what it had to say about "the light", as the desire to hold onto self, or personal consciousness, I believe is a prime factor in reincarnation. The loss of this identity in "the light" would sure cure all those issues that provoke the thought: "damn it why do I keep coming back to this place?!?!"

I haven't dwelt deeper into the issue of "going into the Light" yet, but my own personal views on this are that dissolving our Self upon death into a mass consciousness may not be necessary or even desirable. I suppose it depends on what you want. The whole mystical/New Age idea of obliterating our selves so we can be one with the One doesn't completely wash with me. I certainly believe that people change over time, so in that sense our old selves "die" in some way. But the ultimate goal of a human spirit is to merge with the One or the mass consciousness and lose all individuality? I tend to lean more towards that the goal of the soul is to continually evolve over eternity--can we merge with the One or the mass consciousness and still continue to evolve? All speculations, of course--and the thing I have accepted about channeling is that even when you get channeled information it's still just speculation.
I've been doing some mini-sessions upon waking or before I go to bed, but I don't write them down (yeah, I'm a real faithful reporter). I plan to do another formal session in the next two days.
Q: Is he going to die soon?
A: If you knew the mechanics by which he was holding on, it would surprise you, because there’s a story to it.
Q: So he’s past due but hanging on for a purpose?
A: He's waiting for a prophecy to be revealed that he knows he has a part in.
