Internet physical and subtle human body. Spiritual and energetic structure of a person
We all have 7 bodies. Let's briefly remember (or relearn) each.
Many of us believe that the physical body is the whole person, but this is not so. PHYSICAL BODY– this is only the spacesuit of a true person, which consists of subtle bodies. Our eyes are designed to see only dense material objects. But if we begin to develop spiritually, then more advanced areas of the brain and vision of subtle objects will open. And in our world there are people who see the subtle plans of the surrounding life.
ESSENTIAL BODY is the matrix of the physical body, but in a subtle, spiritual-material form. If the organs of the etheric body are healthy, then automatically they are healthy in the dense body. And the etheric body will be healthy when the mental and astral bodies create healthy and clean organs in it through pure thoughts and good desires.
To "seeers" the etheric body appears grayish-violet; short pale bluish rays emanate from it in all directions, the so-called AURA of health. If these rays are perpendicular to the surface of the body, the person is healthy; in the patient they fall down and are confused, especially in the area of the body that is sick. It is these short rays, which are a manifestation of vitality, that repel illness from a person.
Some sources in their explanations place the Etheric body fourth after the Mental, explaining this by the fact that in terms of vibrations that exist in modern man with his expanded consciousness, it surpasses both previous ones.
ASTRAL BODY– the body of our emotions, feelings and desires. And only when our feelings and desires are completely controlled by our highly spiritual bodies, then the need for the astral body will disappear.
The astral body of an undeveloped person is a cloudy, vaguely defined mass of astral matter of a lower type, which is capable of responding to animal lusts. Its color is dull - brown, dull red and dirty green tones. Various passions appear in them like heavy waves; Thus, sexual passion causes a wave of dull carmine color. And a gust of anger - red lightning with a bluish tint.
The astral body of a moderately developed person is larger in size and has a luminous appearance. And the manifestation of higher emotions evokes in him a beautiful play of colors. Its outlines are clear, it resembles its owner. And the “wheels” of the chakras in it are already clearly visible, although they do not rotate.
The astral body of a spiritually developed person consists of the finest particles of astral matter and is a beautiful sight in its radiance and color. Unprecedented shades appear in him under the influence of pure and noble thoughts. The rotation of the “wheels” indicates the activity of higher centers; the absence of coarse particles makes him unable to respond to the vibrations of low desires and they rush past without being attracted or touching him.
Mental or MENTAL BODY given to us in order to think about everything for living in eternity. The mental body has higher vibrations than the astral body, and when it is fully turned on, the astral body does not participate in joint work. The mental body is the expression of the Personality, but the Synthesis of the incarnation is preserved in the higher, immortal nature of man.
It develops by purifying thoughts and expanding consciousness.
In a highly developed person it is a beautiful spectacle of rapidly pulsating gentle and bright shades of light.
People engaged in mental and mental activity rarely immerse themselves in that atmosphere of feelings and desires that are so important for a person engaged in physical labor.
The immortal Triad of the human soul has the names Manas - Atma - Buddhi - (otherwise activity - will - wisdom).
CAUSAL BODY(manas) stores the memory of all our lives that we once lived in the universe. We came from different worlds, we were men and women, rich and poor, kings and beggars...
All of us had our memories erased for a while so as not to cause harm in our current existence. All people who have contact with us had it in previous lives, and the memory of previous relationships can only harm.
ATMIC BODY stores all information about our real life - from the day of birth to the present day. It does not disappear with the death of the physical body, but is present with us until we learn and understand all the lessons intended for us.
BODY OF BUDDHA is the most important thing. It summarizes the entire experience of our soul, which has accumulated over the entire history of our existence in eternity.
Only in the sphere of Spirit (Atma - Buddhi) there is complete Unity, which says that we are all one in origin, one in the way of our evolution and one in the common purpose of our existence. The only difference between us is that some started their journey earlier, and others later. Some walked faster, others slower.
Recognition of universal Brotherhood and the desire to realize it in earthly life is the most powerful engine for the development of the Higher nature of man.
Material taken from esoteric literature
The paradox of the modern stage of development of science is that the more scientists try to move away from the “remnants of the past,” the closer they come to them. The hypothesis that the physical body should not be considered the only component of a person has long been considered by the most reputable researchers. The subtle human bodies, their forms and structure, invisible to our eyes, came to the attention of scientists back in the middle of the twentieth century.
What is the subtle body?
Subtle bodies refer to systems controlled by energy centers - chakras . It is quite difficult to explain these rather abstract concepts to the unprepared in a few words. Some philosophical movements and Eastern religions consider subtle bodies to be human guides in other worlds, where they are perceived in the same way as the physical body in the reality around us.
The essences of the subtle world, the classification of which will be presented below, are divided by esotericists into 2 groups. Some of them are immortal and travel with us from one life to another. The second is mortal, like the physical body, which is subject to decay after its own death. The concept of subtle bodies should not be confused with the concept of the soul. According to esotericists, the soul is consciousness, the “I”, which persists after physical death.
7 subtle human bodies
Non-physical shells – essences of the subtle world, To classification, left to us by ancient teachings, distinguishes 7 energy systems:
- Etheric body(energy center – Svadhisthana chakra ). It is considered the closest to the physical shell of all the subtle bodies. Many people are able to see the etheric component not only of living beings, but also of inanimate objects. The etheric body is responsible for the circulatory and genitourinary system of the human material shell. It is responsible for immunity and thermoregulation of the body. The shell itself needs protection. The essential component can be damaged by an incorrect lifestyle and negative emotions. One of the simplest and most accessible ways to support your body is to play sports.
- Astral body(energy center – Manipura chakra ). Responsible for our well-being in the astral world. If this body is not damaged or destroyed, the person is well protected from negative energetic influences, better known as “damage”, “evil eye”, “curse”, etc. People with a healthy astral shell are able to influence others. In addition, there are special teachings, thanks to which a person gets the opportunity to travel in the subtle world. However, if the traveler makes a mistake, he risks not returning to the physical world.
- Mental body(energy center – Anahata chakra ). Thin invisible human body, their forms and structure must be studied in order to maintain their health. Each of our intangible substances requires its own nutrition. The mental body needs knowledge, the search for truth. For most people, mental activity ends after receiving a profession. And some people stop studying after school. The mental essence of those who do not strive for any new knowledge gradually atrophies. Like any organ of the physical shell, it turns into a rudiment. Having not received mental progress in this life, the soul is forced to once again return to the world it just left or descend to a lower level of development.
- Karmic body(energy center – Vishuddha chakra ). The expressions “bad karma” and “good karma” are familiar to many people. In fact, karma cannot be good or bad. This is the totality of our actions committed in past lives. The task of a new incarnation is not to receive punishment for “bad karma.” The soul returns to correct mistakes.
- (energy center – Ajna chakra ). The subtle human bodies, their forms, purpose and structure cannot always be understood and explained. The buddhic body receives its development only when a person develops his psychic abilities. Both the process of improvement and its goal are important. If you strive to become a clairvoyant just to earn money and become famous, your actions will be considered selfish, and your buddhic essence will not receive the desired development.
- Spiritual body(energy center – Sahasrara chakra ). This body can be developed in several ways, the main ones of which are serving God, fighting evil on a subtle level, and spiritual teaching. This essence is revealed at the seventh, highest level of human development on earth.
- Absolute body(energy center – chakra Atman ). The body is developed in those who are called messiahs and great teachers, such as Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha. The shell is filled with absolute energy that comes from the Absolute (as God, the highest essence, is sometimes called). The body can exceed the physical shell in size.
<
The subtle human bodies, their shapes and structure have not yet been fully studied by modern scientists. The equipment of the new millennium is not so advanced as to perceive spiritual substance. Skeptics are accustomed to believing only in what can be perceived by the senses. However, even people far from religion, mysticism and philosophy admit that there are worlds and dimensions invisible to us.
THE SEVEN BODIES OF HUMAN
Bodies that make up the soul.
A person consists of 7 bodies with different frequencies of energy vibrations, different densities (degrees of materiality). These bodies seem to enter into each other. Due to the difference in vibration frequencies, they exist in different planes of the universe.
1 body - physical;
2nd body - ethereal;
3rd body - astral;
4 body - mental;
5, 6, 7 bodies - relate directly to our Higher Self.
The energy fields of living beings have a complex composition: almost all forms of energy known to physics are found in them, as well as hitherto unknown ones.
The energy field of a living organism is called a biofield or aura.
AURA is an energetic glow around the physical body. The range of colors in which it is painted is much wider than can be seen with the human eye. You can see all the color diversity of a person’s aura only with the help of the 3rd eye, that is, clairvoyance.
The aura forms an egg-shaped energy shell around the human physical body, with its blunt end facing upward. The aura of an ordinary person occupies approximately 70-100 centimeters in space.
Each energy body has an energy field (each organ has its own aura).
The connection of the physical body with the outside world and with the cosmos cannot be carried out directly; it is carried out through subtle bodies.
Physical body- material, dense body - consists of a huge number of cells. Complexes of homogeneous cells form tissues and organs. All organs are penetrated by a group of cells that provide nutritional and respiratory functions. A cell has a certain lifespan and then dies or divides.
Etheric body- is an exact copy of the physical body, serves to maintain the shape of the physical body. It is also a connecting link between the astral and physical bodies. Its color is weakly luminous, from transparent gray to violet-blue, or milky yellow. The physical body receives energy with the help of the etheric body. The etheric body departs from the physical body at a distance of 1 to 5 centimeters.
The body in which the process of emotions and desires takes place. It is four-dimensional and vibrates so quickly that it becomes invisible to the physical senses of vision, its existence cannot be proven using traditional physics. The astral body is slightly larger than the physical body and extends 7-20 centimeters beyond its contours. Around the head there is a yellow halo, which expresses mental activity, while the red color symbolizes vital activity and is localized around the genitals.
Intelligent, highly developed beings have astral bodies that pulsate in different color spectrums, depending on their state of mind. The silver thread, which is mentioned in the Bible, is the connecting link between the physical, etheric and astral bodies. At the moment of death, the silver thread breaks. During sleep, the astral body can, regardless of the will of a person, leave the physical body and travel in other dimensions (in an invisible space for a person while awake).
Mental body- has an ovoid shape, and consists of finer matter than the astral body. It forms a light sparkling aura. This is the body of thought, and it permeates all subsequent bodies. It is home to what we humans call will and thought. The mental body extends beyond the physical body by 20 to 30 centimeters. The mental body builds a plan for our actions and guides the rational side of our essence. The release of the mental body occurs only in a state of deep sleep.
The physical, etheric, astral and mental bodies are temporary and are not an integral part of the human essence.
MAN AND HIS MORTAL BODIES
The worlds in which a person develops as he enters the circle of births and deaths: physical, astral (transitional), mental (heavenly).
In these three worlds he lives from birth to death in his waking, daytime consciousness; in the last two worlds he lives from birth to death during sleep and for some time after death; he enters the heavenly world occasionally, during sleep, in a state of deep trance, and in it he spends the most important part of his posthumous life. Moreover, this time lengthens as it evolves.
All 3 bodies in which a person manifests himself in these worlds are mortal: they are born and die, and they also improve with each new life, becoming an increasingly worthy instrument for the revealing Spirit. They are copies made of solid matter - those immortal spiritual guides who do not change at birth and death, and form the cover of the spirit in the Higher Worlds. Where the individual arrives as a "spiritual" person, whereas here on Earth, he lives as a physical (dense) person.
The 3 mortal bodies of man are physical, astral and mental. They are connected to each other by the energy worlds in which they live.
IMMORTAL HUMAN BODIES
“Heavenly Dwelling” - built from the immortal shells of human essence. GOD created man for incorruptibility and made him “the image of His Eternal Existence.” We call this spirit the Monad, for it is the true essence of self-existence. When the Monad descends into matter in order to spiritualize it, it appropriates to itself an atom from the Higher Worlds. In order to lay the core of your 3 Higher Bodies. - Atmic, Buddhic and Monadic. Particles from each of the 3 lower worlds are attached to them through the buddhic substance so that a core from the 3 lower bodies of man can arise. Over the course of many centuries, the Spirit overshadows its mortal bodies, they are illuminated by its life. While those slowly rise from the mineral kingdom to the plant kingdom, then to the animal kingdom, etc.
Compounds of substances from the Higher Worlds of the Spirit begin to manifest themselves in the Higher Worlds, and then the animal form of existence reaches that point of development when the evolution of life strives to rise and merge with the Higher Life. Then the Spirit sends, in response to her aspiration, the beating of his own life, and at this decisive moment the mental body of a person is born - like a spark that flared up between coals (an arc element). From this moment, a person is individualized for life in the Higher Worlds.
5, 6, 7 the bodies of the human essence together form the eternal part, that is, his Spirit. These three bodies can be called - karmic, intuitive and causal.
Karmic body- the body of the cause of all actions within a person is the body of the Will. The karmic body contains all the memory of a person’s past incarnations, this is the body of Knowledge. It controls all functions of the cosmic organism and is associated with the blue chakra (vidshuddha). Separates from the physical body at a distance of 40-50 centimeters.
Intuitive body (buddhic)- belongs to the second manifested world, the world of pure spiritual wisdom, knowledge and love. Sometimes it is called the “Body of Christ” because it is this that is born into activity at the first great initiation. It develops to the full measure of the age of Christ, up to 33 years. On the way of its maturation, it emanates energies full of holiness, compassion and selfless and tender love for all living things in the Universe. While in a meditative state, we can enter into spiritual ecstasy, precisely in this body.
The intuitive body is separated from the physical body at a distance of up to 65 centimeters, and is associated with the blue chakra (3rd eye - Ajna).
Casual body (monadic)- is the conductor of the Law of Causality, the Supreme Mind. Which is capable of perceiving abstractions of natural knowledge, through which a person knows the truth by intuitive thinking, and not through reasoning. Moreover, from the lower mind, it borrows its rationalistic methods only in order to establish in the earthly consciousness abstract truths that it itself knows. The person enclosed in this body is called EGO, and when the body merges directly with the next Higher body (buddhic), then the person receives the name spiritual EGO. After which, he begins to realize his own Divinity. It develops through abstract thinking. It can be strengthened by intense meditation, impartiality and subordination of instinct - the Will, directed to selfless service.
By its nature, the monadic body has a tendency towards isolation, being an instrument of individualization. Therefore, it must grow strong and resistant in order to impart the necessary stability to the spiritual body with which it must merge into one.
These are the immortal bodies of man, which are not subject to either birth or death. Namely, they give continuity of memory, which is the very essence of individuality. They are the treasury in which everything worthy of immortality is preserved; nothing unclean or evil can enter them. They are the permanent residence of the Spirit. In them the promise is fulfilled. For you are the Temple of the Living God - as the Lord said: “I will dwell in them and walk in them” (Coref.VI-10). It is they who justify the Hindu’s jubilant cry: “I am Thou.”
The energy of the causal body consists of the totality of all human chakras. The casual body is protected by a fairly strong shell, 10 to 12 centimeters thick, it is very strong, but at the same time, elastic. This is the densest auric layer.
ENERGY BODY
The human energy body arises from concentrated cosmic energy at the moment of synthesis of two energy bodies; egg and germ cell. Its structure is determined to a large extent by the cosmoenergetic constellation prevailing at that moment (which explains the influence of the location of the planets and biorhythmic proportions at the moment of conception).
From its very origins, the body has a connection with the content of the cosmos. Consciousness and archaic subconscious (the phenomenon of reincarnation). Immediately after its emergence, the energy body begins, through the subconscious, to transmit information to the material body for its structural structure.
The energy body receives energy to maintain its mental functions from free cosmic energy, which it can directly perceive with the help of the so-called chakras. In a transformed form, it gives part of this energy to the material body as “vital” energy.
The energy body also receives information from the surrounding world through the chakras in the form of cosmic energy impulses. These impulses and information coming from consciousness accumulate in the subconscious and are processed there. Inside the energy body, information impulses are transmitted through the system of Nadis (Indian), or meridians (Chinese). Since the cosmoenergetic distribution system of the energy body through bioenergetic interaction is connected with the primary plexuses of the material body, which at any time can be transferred to the material body by cosmic energy as life energy. Thus, a direct impact on the material organism through cosmoenergetic impulses is possible.
The energy body is immortal. It existed before birth, and after the death of a person it is separated from his material body in order to exist further as an integral part of cosmic consciousness (therefore, contacts with the dead are possible).
Be Healthy and Spiritually Rich.
Let's start getting acquainted with the structure of the human energy body. But before that, let’s take the following as an axiom. The energy body is an integral part of a person. Each person. Good and evil. Materialist and esoteric. Atheist and believer. Educated and ignorant. You may not believe in it, but it will not disappear. It has its own anatomy and functioning features.
Let us consider the structure of the energy body, focusing on the use of this knowledge for practical purposes.
The energy body consists of the following units: the physical body and 6 “subtle” bodies, energy centers, energy channels.
Subtle human bodies. The human energy body has a layered structure, since all 7 bodies are like a nesting doll. Each new, higher layer of energy has a more subtle organization, its own characteristics and its own “area of responsibility.” Every body can be developed. Each of these bodies can be controlled. All seven bodies are connected to each other. This is all one whole and the connection between them is inextricable.
Physical body. This body is the carrier of all other, “subtle” bodies. If there is no living person, there are no other bodies. Subtle bodies are “strung” on the physical body. It is on this body - on a person who lives, thinks, feels, creates - that everything that all higher energy fields carry is manifested. The physical body is the summative result of the activity of all subtle bodies. Whether a person is healthy or sick, smart or stupid, happy or unhappy, cruel or kind - all this is a consequence and result of the organization of subtle bodies.
Etheric body. This is a thin layer of energy, 1-5 cm thick from the surface of the skin, in special cases - up to 10-15 cm, which is emitted by a person as a biological object. This layer was recorded by the Kirlian spouses, called the “Kirlian effect”. The radiation and vibrations of the cells, organs and tissues of the body create their own field. This field is felt as a fairly elastic layer, which almost everyone can feel and distinguish. The layer of the etheric body is identified and “felt” in the form of light warm vibrations near the surface of the body. In places where disease energy accumulates, it appears as cold depressions and bumps in the flat surface of the layer.
This body contains the energy of disease, foreign pathogenic energy that harms health. Contact work with the patient involves finding such foci and concentrating the energy of a specialist healer in the area of these foci.
It is also quite easy to see it if you have basic astral vision skills. This is very similar to the visible vibrations in the air around hot objects on a hot day. The etheric body dissolves on the 9th day after the death of a person.
Astral body. It's also called "aura". The next layer that follows the etheric body. In size, it can extend beyond the surface of the body by several tens of centimeters, in special cases - more than a meter. A plexus of different types of energy lives here. It is this layer that participates in energy exchange between people and the environment. The layer is heterogeneous in color and depends on the level of health, emotional state, tone, and the presence of other people's energies. We have also learned how to photograph auras.
This layer is home to such energy-informational entities as damage, the evil eye, and love spells. The settled entities are “planted” here. The energy vampire needs to break through this layer in order to establish a connection with the victim. The astral body is home to energy and psychoenergetic blocks. This is where the chakras manifest themselves. When working with negative influences, specialists work specifically with the astral body, groping and “pulling out” foreign energy.
At the astral level, the body is working with a human phantom. The astral body is in contact with energy-informational entities of the astral world - spirits. Yogis after long training can show a focus of presence in two places at the same time. They achieve this by isolating their astral double and colossally densifying their astral field. As a result, the phantom becomes dense and visible to normal vision. The astral body dissolves (dies) on the 40th day after the death of a person.
Mental body. Part of the common information field of the Earth and the Universe. The mental body can extend beyond the physical body by several meters. Thoughts, accumulated knowledge and memories live here. Zombification and mind manipulation programs also live here.
How often have I noticed that a person’s character, behavior, and type of thinking changed under the influence of destructive programs, especially love spells. After this, I came to the conclusion, and I’m not the only one who thinks so, that the thought process is carried out not in the limited space of the cranium, but somewhere outside. In the mental body. And that you can influence this body - “clean” or “dirt” it, instill your thoughts and programs.
There is an ironic question: “Which place do you think?” Mental place...
A thought is born in a person, it is born precisely from the mental body. Or suggested through the mental body. You can “feel” the aura, but thoughts... You can feel them, you can even see them, but for this you have to try very, very hard. Thoughts in potential are thought forms that are filled with energy, begin to build their energy-information matrix, and come to life. Remember the expression “What I was afraid of happened.” The energy of the emotion, in this case fear, brought the thought form to life. This body is the realm of logic, thoughts and reflections.
The mental body also dissolves (dies) on the 40th day after a person’s death.
Karmic body or “body of fate”. It hardly has clearly fixed and measurable contours. It is called the “body of fate”, since it is in this body, difficult to feel and observe, that a person carries through time and rebirth what is “written in the family.” This is exactly where it is written.
In this body, information about ourselves accumulates throughout life in order to create our new “I” in the next life based on our past life, the past “I”.
Buddha said: “Everything that we are is created by our thoughts.” Our destiny is created by our actions, thoughts, emotions and is embodied in a new round of life after death and rebirth. The karmic body and bodies of higher levels are inherited from us from past lives. It is already with us from birth.
After our death, Someone sums up our life and decides how we should live further. This is the program of our life, which is carried by the karmic body. And everything that will manifest itself later as a cause will be “recorded” in this body. This body gives impulses to the lower subtle bodies of a person, controlling them, and the person lives the destiny allotted to him. Or he learns to interact with his “body of destiny” and changes the course of his life.
Ancestral curses and the causes of karmic diseases live here. Here distortions of fate and disruptions to the normal course of events occur, which are the result of damage.
In order to enter the karmic body of a person, save him and his family from the curse, eliminate karmic diseases, influence his destiny, you yourself need to have access to the higher fields of the Universe, to the space where a person’s consciousness, his soul and karma originate.
When working with events, you need to work not with the person himself, but with the field of events, with the karmic body. A person can be just a pawn played by forces that are stronger than the will of the person himself. It is worth turning to the very source of causes - to the karmic body.
Intuitive body or "buddhic body". Remember what I said that the mental body is the realm of logic, thoughts and reflections? But the intuitive body is the realm of the extraconscious, intuitive. This is the body of insights, sudden ideas, discoveries. This is where the concepts of Good and Evil live. It is this body that forms our value system, our unconscious self. Here the transfer of the Divine Self to the level of the human self takes place. The Sahaasrara chakra is the transition in the energy body from the level of human energies to the level of Divine energies.
Intuitive body... So-called insights occur when a person resonates with the information field of the Universe and gains access to information directly, without reflection, distortion, or hesitation. The American “sleeping” seer Edgar Cayce called this field of the Universe the “Akashic Chronicles”. Casey himself gained access to information about people and the future in a dream, turning off the distorting field of his consciousness, leaving a kind of “bridge” to the universal information base.
The intuitive body hides the phenomenon of prophecy, divination and clairvoyance. It is into this body that a person enters in altered states of consciousness. Here contact with egregors occurs. Religious ecstasy and meditative trance are a manifestation of a person’s immersion in this body and higher bodies.
Atmic body. The highest body in the general structure of energy bodies. A part of a person is like a drop dissolved in the ocean of the one World Soul, God, the Absolute. This is the part of God in man, and the part of man in God. The level of the soul is the level of the atmic body. Nirvana, which many people rave about and dream about, is a state of complete merging of one’s soul with the infinite and unknowable absolute. At this level, the very essence of man, the idea of man, his soul is born.
Understanding this, you can find the answer to the question “Is the soul mortal?” The soul is immortal as long as the Absolute is immortal. That is, the soul of an individual person was, is and will always be immortal. The applied side of working with the atmic body consists of prayer practice. In the Orthodox tradition, they pray for the soul, and not just for a person. And it is right. All other bodies can be reached more easily. You can work with your soul only by turning to God.
The subtle bodies of a person are the components of his spiritual essence. It is believed that the aura is permeated by 7-9 subtle bodies, each of which has its own meaning.
The physical body is the temple of the soul. In it she exists in her current incarnation. Functions of the physical body:
- Adaptation to the surrounding world for a comfortable existence
- A tool for acquiring life experience through various lessons of Fate and working off karmic debts
- A tool for fulfilling the soul program, its calling and purpose in the current incarnation
- Biological organism responsible for existence, vital functions and basic needs
In order for the physical body to exist and remain alive, it is fueled by energy from the nine chakras that make up the human aura.
Etheric body
The first subtle body of a person is the ethereal. It performs the following functions:
- Guardian and conductor of prana - life force
- Responsible for endurance and tone, as well as immunity. Helps resist diseases on an energetic level. If there is little energy, a person becomes tired, constantly wants to sleep, and loses vigor
- The main function of the etheric body is to saturate with energy and literally revive the physical body for a comfortable and harmonious existence of a person in society
- Provides connection with the energy of the Cosmos and its circulation throughout the body
The etheric body looks similar to the physical body, is born along with it, and dies on the ninth day after the death of a person in his earthly incarnation.
Astral body
The astral or emotional body is responsible for the following functions:
- Everything that concerns a person’s emotional state: his desires, emotions, impressions and passions
- Provides a connection between the Ego and the outside world, as a result of which a person is able to react to external circumstances with certain emotions
- Controls the state of the right (creative, emotional) hemisphere of the brain
- Controls the work of the etheric body, is responsible for the interaction of energy centers with the physical state
- Together with the etheric body, it monitors the health and well-being of the physical entity
It is believed that the astral body dies completely on the fortieth day after the death of the physical body in the earthly world.
Mental body
The mental essence contains all thoughts and conscious processes occurring in the brain. This is a reflection of logic and knowledge, beliefs and thought forms. Everything that is separated from the unconscious. The mental body dies on the ninetieth day after the death of the earthly body.
Functions of the metal body:
- Perception of information from the surrounding world and its transformation into thoughts, conclusions, reflections
- All information processes occurring in the head - their course, sequence, logic
- Creating Thoughts
- A repository of all information that penetrates into a person’s consciousness from his very birth
- The repository of information flow - that is, absolutely all the knowledge of the world. It is believed that every person has access to a common field of information and is able to gain the wisdom of their ancestors. But this can only be achieved with the help of special spiritual practices.
- Responsible for connecting emotions, feelings with memory and mind
- Motivates a person to act in life in accordance with his needs and needs, to benefit himself and others
- Responsible for controlling instincts and other unconscious processes. If this control is “turned off,” a person literally turns into an animal without reason.
- Controls all thought processes
- Provides a rational approach to decision making
The mental, etheric and physical bodies do not exist forever. They die and are born along with the physical body.
Karmic subtle body
Other names are casual, causal. It is formed as a result of the actions of the human soul throughout all incarnations. It exists forever: in each subsequent incarnation, karmic debts that remain from past lives are worked off.
Karma is a kind of method of the Higher Powers to “educate” a person, force him to go through all life lessons and heal from past mistakes, gain new experience.
To heal the karmic body, you need to learn to work on your beliefs, control your emotions and train awareness (thought control).
Intuitive body
The intuitive or buddhic body is the personification of the spiritual nature of a person. It is by “turning on” the soul at this level that one can achieve a high degree of awareness and enlightenment.
This is the body of values, the result of the interaction of the astral and mental essence of a particular person with the analogous essences of the surrounding souls.
It is believed that a person should live and die in the place of his birth, because the purpose given at birth to the intuitive body is to complete the task necessary in that place.

Other bodies
The above entities are most often mentioned in the description of the “composition” of the human soul. But there are others:
- Atmanic - a body that personifies the divine principle that every soul has. “There is nothing but God and God is in everything.” A symbol of the unity of the human soul with the entire vast world. Provides connection with the information space of the Universe and the Higher Mind
- The solar is the object of study of astrologers, the interaction of human energy with the energies of the Moon, Sun, planets and stars. Given at birth depending on the location of the planets in the sky at the time of birth
- Galactic - the highest structure, ensures the interaction of the unit (soul) with infinity (the energy field of the Galaxy)
It is important to understand that each subtle body is necessary and important: these essences contain a certain energy. It is necessary that the interaction of subtle bodies exist in harmony, so that each performs its functions fully and radiates the correct vibrations.
