RE: planes/globes

Dear M:

Where does this quotation or statement originate?

Who said that? In some text book or article ?

What would a "shadow" be?

Why would the student of occultism have to "meet or see" it?

I don't recall H P B saying this, but I could be wrong.

I find this very curious 

See if you can help me.

Thanks,

Dallas

I met my shadow in a dream. Bright light radiated through my head and
projected a monsters shadow into a wall behind me. I remember being terribly
scared when I looked over my shoulder. Though I'm not sure if I'm on any
kind of Path since I usually have feeling of going nowhere... :)
