Intermediate zone

In Sri Aurobindo's philosophy, the Intermediate zone refers to a dangerous and misleading transitional spiritual state between the ordinary consciousness and true spiritual realisation.

Similar notions can be found in mystical literature, such as "the astral plane" and "the hall of illusion." The Theosophist W. Q. Judge used the similar notion of "astral intoxication".
