Ashta-dal-Kanwal

Ashta-dal-Kanwal (AHSH-tah-dahl-KAHN-wahl) The first region of the Astral Plane, where disciples of the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master meet him in his radiant body.

This life-changing spiritual encounter begins the chela's travels through the inner worlds. The Mahanta greets the chela with great joy. From that moment on, the two are never separated.
