36. THE FOUR GRADES OF EACH CLASS OF ADEPTS

            63. There are four grades of each class of adepts described previously. An adept might have access only to a particular sphere, or he might be allowed location close to the presiding deity or the central power of that sphere. Further proficiency in adeptship is
            (1) the assumption of the manifest form of the presiding deity, and
            (2) a union with the deity's essence.

            In these two latter conditions, however, the adept has power to detach himself from the deity at will.

            64. It is clear from the above remarks that an adept must have gone through all the four stages, referred to, in respect of the spheres he has passed in his journey to the final goal he has attained. For instance, a Yogi has passed all the above four stages of each of the six spheres of the material plane or Pind and of the three lower spheres of the region of the Universal Mind or Brahmanda.

  1. The Param Sants of Radhasoami Faith have achieved unity with the param essence of highest region of creation or Radhasoami Dham. They detach themselves from it when they descend to Pind for our redemption.
