It will then no longer be so necessary for your astral body to be sent far off ; without moving an inch you will be able to “turn on” its eyes and ears — as simplv as the man with the microscope (mentioned above) can transfer his complété attention from one eye to the other.

During embryonic life it seemed to it that the placenta was its body, and it was in fact its special embryonic body, a body useless for another life, a body which had to be thrown off as an unclean thing at the moment of birth. The body of our human life is like a second envelope, use- less for the third life, and for that reason we throw it aside at the moment of our second birth. Human life compared to heavenly life is veritably an embryo. When our evil passions kill us,…

… is to dissociate the beings which make up your life. Firstly, because it is easiest, you should segregate that Form which is called the Body of Light (and also by many other names) and set yourself to travel in this Form, making systematic exploration of those worlds which are to other material things what your own Body of Light is to your own material form. Now it will occur to you in these travels that you come to many Gates which you are not able to pass. This is because your Body of Light is itself as yet not strong enough, or subtle enoug…

All my body and soul are bent and bowed to your service , Take my body and soul , give me your body and soul : Trusty and anxious servants bound the one to the other , Seek not to set them apart , each has station in love .

…? Yes, of a sublime sort) of the consciousness to identify oneself with those 'celestial' Beings. In Yoga, various practices prevent the body and its functions from interrupting the mental process. Then, one inhibits that process itself; the stilling of "thoughts" allows one to become aware of mental functions beyond the intellectual; these functions have their own peculiar properties and powers.

There is no solid body which would not immediately be pulverized, vanish in smoke, and become invisible if the equilibrium of its molecules were to cease suddenly. There is no fluid which would not instantly become harder than the diamond, if one could equilibrate its constituent molecules. To direct the magnetic forces is then to destroy or create forms; to produce to all appearance, or to destroy bodies; it is to exercise the…

And after they are separated they retain their several natures, as in life; the body keeps the same habit, and the results of treatment or accident are distinctly visible in it: for example, he who by nature or training or both was a tall man while he was alive, will remain as he was, after he is dead; and the fat man will remain fat; and so on; and the dead man who in life had a fancy to …
