There were bands and processions of people, white-robed―all going in one direction.
They moved with uplifted faces, singing beautiful music.
We joined the rear of one group, and were almost swept along on a tide of intense feeling.
We came to a building without any walls.
It consisted of a roof, which seemed to be composed of interwoven rays of light of different colours, supported by pillars, which looked as if they were made of mother-of-pearl.
There were crowds of people all round―
Raised above all others stood one glowing, radiant figure.
He was not like any picture I have ever seen.
I was so conscious of Him that I felt as if He was bending over me.
His eyes seemed to penetrate me and produce a wonderful glow.
I felt uplifted in a culminating thrill of ecstasy.
He was speaking, but I could not hear the words.
As I knelt there, many events of my life passed in review through my mind.
I could visualise them as pictures.
Not alone of the life I had just left, but of others in the faraway past―
