left hand/right hand paths are traditionally golden dawn, nothing christian at all.
oddly enough, i had someone relay a very similiar vision, but it was her asking to be guided by Gd on how to be a good christian. She was presented with two paths, one was bright, smooth and had people singing and dancing as they celebrated their way down the road, the one that drew her was a dark, stormy, rocky mountain path through woods...she asked Gd why He'd want her to go that way; this is how it was presented to her.
The first path is the way of most of my children, singing and dancing along, thinking it's easy to live their ordinary lives in an earthly way...but those who really want to understand; need to overcome their difficulties, face their fears with faith in Him as a guide, learning how to completely worship Him or continue down in blissful ignorance, not stopping to ask Him, what He wants for us but assuming we're righteous already.
at certain points in our life, we're all presented with the choice of two ways our life can go...one is never easy, wrought with trials, tribulations and tests and the other always seems an easier way, but never really goes anywhere. Choose carefully, it's usually a life altering situation that's going to be dropped in your lap to decide upon, and if you choose the easy way, you may not end up where you need to be for the next path; finding a dead end on the other one; only your heart can let you know which to choose.
