We take a look at this model, originally proposed by Victorian scholar Edwin Abbott, to construct for ourselves an ass' bridge to comprehend the reality of the spiritual realm. Although somewhat technical and mathematical, this is quite a humorous way of looking at serious issues. We also become more familiar with the differences between the natural and spiritual realms, as well as their respective inhabitants.
