Norwegian healer and clairvoyant Are Thoresen invites us to accompany him on his further travels on the Northern path of initiation. Having previously traversed the realms of the elemental world, he now takes us to the astral regions and Devachan, where we meet a series of extraordinary entities, culminating in a dialogue with the Antichrist and an exploration of the sublime spheres of the Time Spirit, Michael. Thoresen contrasts Vidars path - through the mysteries of the spirit - with the mysteries of the earth, and discusses the differences between the Vidar and Michael paths. Guided by Scythianus, he is introduced to Ymir, the Spirit of the Earth - a being who has been in existence before earthly time began. Ymir reveals the earths twelve layers, where the cosmic entity Anna is to be found. Known in history as the grandmother of Jesus, Anna represents the feminine aspect of the path into devachanic realms. Through her portal, Thoresen enters the higher spiritual worlds, where he receives teaching on the true mission of the human being. Meeting Michael brings to culmination the trilogy that began with Travels on the Northern Path of Initiation (2021) and Encounters with Vidar (2022).
ARE THORESEN was born in Norway in 1952. A Doctor of veterinary medicine, he has also studied anthroposophic medicine, homeopathy, acupuncture, osteopathy and agriculture. Since 1981 he has run a private holistic practice in Sandefjord, Norway, for the healing of people, horses and small animals. He has lectured widely, specializing in veterinary acupuncture, and has published dozens of scholarly articles. In recent years, his work has focused mainly on spiritual medicine - based primarily on a deeper understanding of anthroposophy and the medical teachings of Rudolf Steiner - and investigating the spiritual world. This has resulted in seven books: Demons and Healing (2018), Experiences from the Threshold (2019), Spiritual Translocation and The Lucifer Deception (both 2020), Transforming Demons (2021), Travels on the Northern Path of Initiation (2021) and Encounters with Vidar (2022).
