During breath infusion practice, one the subtle side, I was approached by an apsara (up-suh-raa) angelic lady who is currently using a physical body. This person came to study the breath infusion practice and to begin practicing it.
It is not usual for this to happen to a yogi who is proficient in yoga practice. In fact at the time of death of the body of such a yogi, there might be hundreds of such angelic beings approaching but mostly these will be persons who are permanent residents of the Swarga angelic heavenly astral places.
There are various classes of angelic beings and the apsara are one class. Some of these take birth as human beings for a time, hoping to gain access to yoga practice, so that they can elevate themselves to higher worlds which are beyond the Indraloka place.
This particular person who approached me was not seen by me physically for over 30 years. She followed a religious path from India but it panned out. Realizing that she was not making progress in it and seeing others fail who followed it, she began to have doubts. This inspired her to come to see me about a year ago, astrally.
I was not interested in convincing her about the breath infusion process because anyone, whom I convince of it, may be a responsibility, which may well if I fail at it, become a dead wait around my neck.
There is uncertainty for every swimmer who is out there in the middle of the Pacific. Thinking that as such a swimmer one can save others is sheer folly. Every added person is another weight around the yogi’s neck and that sure decreases his chances of survival out there floating in the middle of nowhere. It does not matter how good a boat one is in nor how good a swimmer one may be. If a storm is manifested, and if it is powerful enough no boat will survive it, so what to speak of loading it down with many passengers.

I did notice in the psyche of this apsara an energy of delay and reliance, which means that her subtle body has an energy to remain in the astral world in delay just in case she leaves her physical body before I leave mine. She does not want to use her pious credits to go to Swarga lower heavenly places. Somehow she generated a delay energy so that she could meet me after I leave my body if I leave after her.
If perchance I should leave my physical form before she leaves her, she has an identity energy in her subtle form which will cause her to appear to no matter where I may be, but in that statement where means somewhere in the astral world.
In her mind, she was hoping that I could not qualify to enter the chit akash sky of consciousness because that would be inaccessible to her. That illustrates a problem with disciples where they might wish bad things for the teacher, just so that they can have access to assistance from the teacher.

Talking about Apsaras, I once found them depicted in this very unusual, and not available to the public at the time, Maya ruins in Yucatan, Mexico. The Mayas rarely sculpted in relieve, but here we see sculptures of Apsaras uncannily similar to those found in the temples of India. In the pic below an Apsara is seated on sideways on the top left.

Apsara's lives in Indra Loka and can change their appearance. Nice and interesting.
