Spiritualism

The subtle body has two levels namely the upper level consisting of the mind called the sixth sense and the lower level of five senses namely taste, touch, sight, hearing and sex.

The lower level connects the living entity to the material world through the gross body. The upper level of mind on the other hand connects the living entity with the spiritual world via the causal body of intelligence.

Broadly there are five outlets called chakras in our body for the soul to pass through. These are as follows:

The brain

The neck

The heart

The stomach

The base of the spinal chord.

The headquarters of the whole body, the one that transmits instructions to the whole body, the brain is actually only a gross instrument a mass of flesh and nerves made up of the fifth element earth, but it is under the direct control of the senses which are a part of the astral body.

This gross body is generally made of five elements that is the ether, the air, the fire, the water and the earth. Of these five the last three are visible, the last four are within the grasp of the medical science but the fifth that is the first one ether is still out of range.

Senses can be broadly classified into five forms- taste, touch, smell, sight and hearing. Together they transform the input from the mind into feelings and finally give vent to the same through the gross body.

The main work or duty of this mind is to chew and masticate on the ideas germinating out of the intelligence that is the causal body.

Now the student may very well visualize the comedy of errors taking shape. In the first stage the soul acted independently without consulting the super soul. This itself was flawed. 

However the soul went a step further.

It spewed its ‘pearls of wisdom’ on the unsuspecting causal body that is intelligence. It in turn transformed them into half baked ideas and hurled them on the poor mind.

The mind had no other go but to chew on this morsel and try to masticate on it at leisure. After putting in its ‘piece’ into this dough it transferred the mixture to senses which form the lower part of the astral world.
