According to these beliefs, ascension refers to the process by which a being transcends the physical limitations and constraints of earthly incarnation to reach a higher state of existence, where it evolves on a spiritual or divine plane.

These ascended masters are therefore seen as guides or spiritual teachers, available to help individuals on their own spiritual path.

An ascended master, having mastered their emotions, mind, and body, chooses not to be reborn in the cycle of reincarnation, but rather to "ascend" (hence the term "ascension") into a purely spiritual form of existence.

They remain accessible and can transmit their wisdom and teachings to human beings through subtle means such as meditation, dreams, or even direct revelations.

They are benevolent guides, playing an important role in the evolution of human consciousness and offering assistance to individuals seeking light and truth.

Their influence is particularly sought after during periods of transition and transformation, such as those that individuals or societies sometimes experience.
