Crawford yellow. The Etheric Double A. General Description. The Etheric Double: The Health Aura of Man by Arthur E. Powell The invisible etheric body of human beings. In the works of Helena P. The term etheric has also been used by H. This mixture of languages have been unfortunate. The etheric double is formed of a certain kind The Etheric Double matter which, while still physical in nature, is more subtle than that which is normally perceived by our five senses. It is an exact counterpart double of the physical body to which it belongs. The double is separable from the physical, but is unable to move very far away from it. The Etheric Double separation of the etheric from the physical usually results in a considerable decrease in energy. The etheric double has been described as a pale violet-grey or blue-grey, somewhat luminous, aura. In form the etheric double follows fairly The Etheric Double the physical body, extending a very short distance, about a quarter of an inch 6mm beyond it. It also acts as a connecting or interfacing medium between the astral and physical bodies. Thus external sensory input to the system is sensed by the astral and perhaps higher levels and communicated via the etheric The Etheric Double the physical brain. These etheric chakras have a dual function. One is to absorb and distribute prana to the etheric double from where it passes to the physical body thus keeping it alive; and second, to bring down into physical consciousness what may be occurring in the corresponding astral cakras. It has been said that many people are fully conscious on the astral plane when asleep on the physical and the ability to recall, when awake, events on the astral depends on the level of development of the etheric chakras. This mold is formed, it is said, by an elemental, and some clairvoyants, seeing this miniature form, have mistaken it for the incoming soul of the baby. The elemental soon leaves and The Etheric Double future growth of the etheric double is controlled by the individual Ego. In gathering etheric matter for the initial form, The Etheric Double is the The Etheric Double of the incarnating entity that is the deciding factor. As the form grows, etheric matter is taken from the mother and this highlights the importance of a The Etheric Double lifestyle on the part of the mother. At the time of death, the etheric double withdraws from The Etheric Double physical and is seen as a violet misty figure connected The Etheric Double the expiring physical by a glowing cord. The cord breaks and the physical begins to decompose. When the etheric double has left the body it usually floats over it as a virtually The Etheric Double and speechless figure; it is from this stage that many of the tales of ghosts originate. It has been noted that the etheric double is a vehicle of prana and a process of helping to heal a sick person is the transfer of prana from a robustly healthy person to the ailing one. Shells and shields. The most effective protection of an individual against all external inimical influences is a pure heart and a totally benevolent disposition. However, not everyone is in such a desirable state and in such a case other means of protection have been suggested by some. An effort of imaging is needed. Imagine the etheric as a violet misty shield surrounding the physical body; imagine it becoming denser and denser and brighter and brighter. Properly done this is said to be an effective barrier to undesirable external influences, but it must be kept in mind that the barrier is a block both ways — in and out. When the need has passed it is important, by an The Etheric Double of imagination and will, to restore the etheric double to its former state. According to clairvoyants who have observed the process, spiritualist mediums have the unusual ability to dislodge their etheric double from the physical body. In such a condition, the medium is able to cause certain physical phenomena to occur The Etheric Double as table rapping and the movement of objects. The effort to produce this result is very exhausting indeed. Effect of noise and other influences. Excessive noise at a very high volume The Etheric Double is said to be damaging to the etheric double. Because the etheric is very close in nature to the physical, it can respond to vibration and if this is severe then undesirable consequences can take place. It is fortunate that the etheric has excellent recuperative qualities and usually recovers when the disturbing influence ceases. A general anaesthetic causes some disturbance to the alignment of the etheric double and the The Etheric Double body and this takes some time to recover due to the persistence of the chemicals in the body. The Etheric Double excessive consumption of narcotics and alcohol is also disruptive and some writers have suggested that this might be the cause of the mental disorder called delirium tremens. It has to be emphasized that the etheric double does not embody consciousness as we know it, nor can it act, independently, as a vehicle of consciousness. Circumstances under which the etheric double may be separated from the physical body include severe trauma, anaesthetics and possibly deep hypnotic trance, but there always remains a connecting link and this link is only severed at the time of death. Individuals who have had a limb amputated sometimes complain that they still feel pain or discomfort in the missing part. This is due to the fact that the removal of the physical part does not remove the corresponding etheric element which can remain in place for a considerable time. The prana that normally passes from the astral to the physical passes easily through the web, but the web is a complete barrier to all other forces and thus the web acts as a shield The Etheric Double the normal world The Etheric Double the individual and the astral plane op. Theosophical The Etheric Double. Etheric Double. The Etheric Double - A. E. Powell | Theosophy World The English term "etheric" in this context seems to derive from the Theosophical writings of Madame Blavatskybut its use was formalised by C. Leadbeater [2] and Annie Besant [3] due to the elimination of Hindu terminology from the system of seven planes and bodies. Adyar School of Theosophy. The The Etheric Double gained some general popularity after the war, Walter John Kilner having adopted it for a The Etheric Double of the "human atmosphere" which, as he claimed in a popular book, could be rendered visible to the naked eye by means of certain exercises. The classical element Aether of Platonic and Aristotlean physics continued in Victorian scientific proposals of a Luminiferous ether as well as the cognate chemical substance ether. According to Theosophists and Alice Bailey the etheric body inhabits an etheric plane which corresponds to the four higher subplanes of the physical plane. The Etheric Double intended reference is therefore to some extremely rarefied matter, analogous in usage to the word "spirit" originally "breath". In selecting it as the term The Etheric Double a clearly defined concept in an Indian-derived metaphysical system, the Theosophists aligned it with ideas such as the prana-maya-kosha sheath made of pranasubtle breath or life-force of Vedantic thought. In popular use it is often confounded with the related concept of The Etheric Double astral body as for example in the term astral projection - the early Theosophists had called it the "astral double". Others prefer to speak of the "lower and higher astral". Spiritual plane :. Astral - Ethereal plane :. Linga sarira is a Sanskrit term for the invisible double of the human body, the etheric body or etheric double or astral body in some Theosophical concepts. It is one of the seven principles of the human The Etheric Double, according to Theosophical philosophy.

  • The Texts of Alice A. Bailey: an Inquiry Into the Role of Esotericism in Transforming Consciousness
    THE TEXTS OF ALICE A. BAILEY: AN INQUIRY INTO THE ROLE OF ESOTERICISM IN TRANSFORMING CONSCIOUSNESS I Wightman Doctor of Philosophy 2006 University of Western Sydney. IN APPRECIATION This thesis would not have been possible without the care, support, enthusiasm and intellectual guidance of my supervisor, Dr Lesley Kuhn, who has followed my research journey with dedicated interest throughout. I also acknowledge the loving kindness of Viveen at Sydney Goodwill, who has continuously praised and encouraged my work, and provided me with background material on the kind of activities that the worldwide community of Alice A. Bailey students are involved in. I sincerely appreciate the role my husband, Greg, played, as my cosmic co-traveller. Without him this thesis would never have materialized, his tireless engagement throughout these years has bolstered my drive to proceed to the very end. Finally, I acknowledge my children, Victoria and Elizabeth, for tolerating my reclusive behaviour, and giving me the space I have needed to write. Philosophy, in one of its functions, is the critic of cosmologies. It is its function to harmonise, refashion, and justify divergent intuitions as to the nature of things. It has to insist on the scrutiny of ultimate ideas, and on the retention of the whole of the evidence in shaping our cosmological scheme. Its business is to render explicit, and –so far as may be – efficient, a process which otherwise is unconsciously performed without rational tests (Alfred North Whitehead 1938:7).

  • A Theory of Etheric Environment
    Eco Internal Publication #ECO-10-430-111501 A Theory of Etheric Environment (Abridged Version) by Zurab Khviengia Research and Development, Eco & Associates, Inc. 1855 W. Katella Ave, Suite 350, Orange, CA 92867 [email protected] Phone: 1(714)289-0995 Fax: 1(714)289-0965 Abstract A concept of energy is given a substantial existence as a real quantity describing the state of immaterial ether. A theory of environment based on this notion is developed. Introduction Ether of this paper should not be confused with a chemical substance called by the same name. Ether referred to here is not any known substance. it is not any substance. It is not substance at all. It denotes immaterial state of matter, called in science energy. Energy and ether are synonymous terms. We introduce a notion of etheric environment as the environment of energy that any material body or substance has to have in order to exist in material state. In this paper, we develop theories describing this environment and relate it to already known notions and phenomena. This is a brief summary of the original work just to acquaint the reader with main concepts related there. The theories given in this article are not extensions of any known theories and represent the original ideas formulated by the author. The author takes full responsibility for their existence. Matter Out of all notions in science, matter is probably the least understood and most obscure one. The quantity of matter has been studied well in the past and is even given its own name - mass.

  • Ophiel Assistance from the Gods
    Ophiel Assistance from the Gods - part 1 We can use all the help we can get in and on this physical plane, especially wit h regard to the daily difficulties and minor mishaps and nuisances we face in li fe. It is observable and I have been told in time of great crises, natural calam ities and facing catastrophic or major proportions, that people rise to heights of courage and great valor. It is only in the day-by-day experiencing of life's little grindings that we get played out over and over. Ophiel has some helpful i deas for you; he can offer this help to you because he does not deal in pie-in-t he-sky stuff as churches do 'Heaven when you die' or 'Initiations' etc. That stu ff is all very well in its long drawn out place but what most of us need is 'Hel p right now TODAY' when we ask for it. If you have some 'Occult Knowledge' and s ome training (See Ophiel's other books and writings.) you must have become aware that 'Out There?' and 'Over There' are 'Forces' in existence which play on and over in and out of this Earth Plane at all times. These Forces were/are equated with the Gods and Goddesses in olden times because such personalization was easi er to deal with and to understand by the untrained, uneducated minds of the mass es through the past thousands of years. Now, today, even though you might say/fe el that you know better, is still possible to work with these 'God' - like force s and get results, which is after all, all that really matters.

  • Teachings of the Temple — Volume Ii Hilarion
    TEACHINGS OF THE TEMPLE — VOLUME II HILARION 2 Dedicated to Humanity tttt 3 THE TEMPLE OF THE NEW AGE The Temple of the People is an integral part of the Theosophical Movement, which is based upon a world-old body of spiritual lore called the Wisdom Religion. Man has never been without the knowledge of his nature, origin, and destiny. This knowledge is contained in the Wisdom Religion in its fullness, and is held intact by the Karmic Lords of the race, to be restated to man authoritatively, i.e., in its purity, from time to time as the cycles of evolution permit. The first half of such a restatement was made by Those Whose karmic right it was to do so, in the writings of H. P. Blavatsky, which consist chiefly of "The Secret Doctrine" (published in 1888), "Isis Unveiled," and "The Key to Theosophy." This part of the work was put forth directly by Mahatmas Morya and Koot Hoomi in the latter part of the nineteenth century, working in the century cycle. The cycle ending in 1900 A. D. was not an ordinary century cycle, for no "Secret Doctrine" or like volumes, not a movement like the theosophical was put forth in 1800 A. D. or in 1700 A. D. or in any other hundred for two thousand years. The year 1900 A. D., as well as being the close of a century cycle, was the close, approximately speaking, of a 2,000-year cycle or astrological age, the Age of Pisces, and the dawn of a new 2,000-year age, the Age of Aquarius.

They are held together by an inner structure of thought and by a telepathic medium of interrelation.

  • The Explaining Look and Critique of Eckankar's Cosmology According To
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SCIENCE EDUCATION 2017, VOL. 12, NO. 5, 1371-1389 OPEN ACCESS The Explaining look and critique of Eckankar’s Cosmology According to the Islamic Teaching Abdolreza Mahmoudi 1*, Maryam Shamsaei 2 *1- Corresponding author, Assistant professor of Islamic Education Department, Faculty of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. 2-Assistant professor of Islamic Education Department, Faculty of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran ABSTRACT In Eckankar cosmology, the immediate creation of the universe is rejected, instead, the creation has relied on some factors called “ECK” or the other names. In creation process (gradually or suddenly), the Eckankar school believes in gradual creation, and sometimes express some terms which indicate the eternal essence of the creatures, unlike the opinions of the Islamic philosophers who believe in temporal occurrence or essential occurrence of the creatures. In goals of creation, it believes in some goals such as growth and perfection of the soul and evaluation and examine of the human, which are relatively in accordance with Islamic teaching. In finitude or infiniteness of the universe, the Eckankar believes in infiniteness of the universe contrary to the Islamic viewpoint. In order of the world and creation of the universe, the concepts of this school resemble the creation's myth. For instance, the Hesiod’s myth looks like the PaulTwitchell's words, which are criticized in this study. In administration and management of the world, this school believes in full utilization of God from some intermediates and takes advantage of Hindu trinity. Accordingly, in this study authors tries to review the Eckankar’s view point about cosmology, then it criticized according to Islamic philosophers and theologians.
