PofGP 1
After having had a "high mountain experience", been transfigured by the Holy Ghost, and seeing the Savior face to face, Moses writes -
"And the presence of God withdrew from Moses, that his glory was not upon Moses; and Moses was left unto himself. And as he was left unto himself, he fell unto the earth." (Pearl of Great Price | Moses 1:9)
In my mind, "fell unto the earth" could have more than one meaning, It could suggest that he "came down to earth". This is meaningful to me. I have to confess being on a spiritual high as I have worked hard a stake conference talk and when it is all over, just feeling like normal and back to earth where I might have expected the spiritual high to remain.
