The 7 Bodies & Multidimensional Cosmology

The dense, material body — the temple in which all other bodies operate.

The most dense of the subtle bodies. It feeds the physical body by absorbing vital energy through meridians, channels, and chakras. It is intimately linked to the physical body and cannot be separated from it. It is the first body sensed when studying clairsentience.

Function: Absorbs and distributes vital energy to the physical body

The coloured reflection of our emotions. It is the home of sensations and emotions, where fears and anxieties are stored. It can remove itself from other bodies to travel in the astral world, sometimes in dreams and sometimes consciously. Produced by the pancreas, coloured by the solar plexus. It acts on the etheric body, sometimes creating emotional blockages.

Function: Houses emotions, sensations, fears; can astral travel

The home of thoughts, ideas, and reasoning. It feeds intelligence with concrete ideas. It can be polluted by negative thoughts, conditioning, or received ideas. Created by the brain — its physical part may be perceived by the electroencephalogram.

Function: Houses thoughts, ideas, reasoning; can be polluted by conditioning

The receptacle of archetypes and highest truths. The source of abstract thoughts. Here are stored the causes responsible for our existence and our mission in life — our karma (debts and advantages), beliefs, wishes, and oaths. The realisation of this body enables us to understand the events of our life and how to transform them. It is the body of wisdom and omniscience — the level upon which meditation acts directly.

Function: Stores karma, life mission, archetypes; body of wisdom

The level of supra-mental consciousness that organises connections and relationships between all things. The body of unconditional love, awakening, and spiritual illumination. It allows the spirit to descend into matter. At this level are found the Merkaba, the Torus, the Fahoky system, and the spiritual chakras (Imrah, Thoràl, Naxàl, Estar, Érepsus). It is the space that receives the initiations.

Function: Unconditional love, spiritual illumination; houses internal systems and initiations

Our divine part — the body of the all-powerful, the consciousness of unity.

Function: Divine consciousness, unity consciousness
