Durante el sueño sentí que me sentaba en la cama con las piernas dobladas, es decir que estaba sentado sobre los talones. Me dejaba caer hacia atrás mientras sentía una relajación como nunca antes había experimentado. Sentí que hasta la última gota de energía abandonaba mi cuerpo. De repente siento que me desprendo de mi cuerpo y me elevo, ingresando a través de un túnel de color blanco hacia una especia de nube de luz de color blanco. Al acercarme a esa nube de luz comencé a sentir un inmenso amor y un inmenso gozo espiritual al mismo tiempo que sentía calor intenso en el pecho. Supe inmediatamente que estaba en contacto con Dios. Sólo atiné a decir 'Dios es amor' y lo dije con voz de niño. Continué fusionándome más y más con Dios y sintiendo un amor y un gozo más y más intenso, a la vez que el calor en el pecho se volvía un fuego intenso. De pronto sentí que si continuaba fusionándome con Dios me moría. Era como que yo tenía que decidir si seguía uniéndome a Dios o si volvía a mi vida física. No tuve tiempo de pensar ya que de repente regresé a mi cuerpo y allí me desperté.

During the dream I seemed to be sat on the bed, with my legs crossed, which we call “sat on your heels”. I fell backwards while I felt a relaxation as I had never before experienced. I felt the last drop of energy drain from my body. Suddenly I felt myself come out of my body and rise, going through a white coloured tunnel, towards a kind of white cloud. As the cloud of light  approached me, I started to feel an immense love, and an immense spiritual pleasure, while at the same time I felt an intense warmth in my heart. I knew immediately that I was connecting with God. I just managed to say “God is love” and I said it with the voice of a child. I continued joining myself more and more with God, feeling a love and enjoyment  more and more intense, at the same time the warmth in my chest became an intense fire.
