In an attempt at doing this again, another sketch. The enlightenment levels are surely real, but it seems like chronological time, they are only relevant as a progression while on the path. After that they are each just a thing.

And that's why the undead gods or the goetians may look like they're infernal, or at a specific level of enlightenment. They aren't, they're choosing that form because they like it.

The meaning of being at a level stops after completing the circle. All levels are visible from the other levels, but their meaning changes as you change viewpoint. There is a backwards path of karma into the galactic sun, this is the path chosen by the degenerate elites "NWO" etc. But from the external view this is also a kind of path, it's just very harsh and punishing. Maybe they can walk that way, but it will take millions of years of psychological horror to reach there when trapped in that dimension. It's the choice of those souls to do so however. Enlightenment is unavoidable when time progresses towards eternity, because all individual meanings, understandings and experiences turn to zero when compared.

Seen from outside, one spirit went quickly up the front staircase, and the other went down to the basement for a very long time and placed themselves in seemingly endless suffering as they tried fighting their own nature and the principles of life itself. But both ended up coming up to the place of no levels. As horrible as it sounds, some chose the negative path to get there, and no one can perhaps explain why. Maybe they needed that.
