SwamiX, Echcart experienced Spiritualization.
Spiritualization is the spontaneous and “unprovoked” proces - unprovoked by the person being Spiritualized, ennobling and raising the vibrations of her consciousness. This process is driven by highly developed spiritual consciousnesses (never incarnated) that take care of the development of the Universe as a whole. When notice that an incarnated person (by the development achieved during all his previous incarnations) has reached the level of consciousness that allows him to enter the Enlightenment, the spiritual consciousness initiates the process of Spiritualization on that person - without his knowledge. The Spiritualization represents 95% of Enlightenment, but it does not erase the Ego - it must be done by a Spiritualized person through some kind of non-Ego meditation.
This process of Spiritualization is more frequent than it is thought, and we know that, among others, Nikola Tesla and Osho will be subjected to it.
