Man has the physical, the etheric, the mental and the spiritual bodies.
The spiritual body or the spiritual force is that which animates, that
is which
gives life to the other bodies or vehicles. When this spiritual force
withdraws from the physical we are what is called dead.
The
etheric body is the essence of your subconscious mind, the totality of
your
thoughts and feelings of which you are for the most part unconscious.
Why
do we not feel pain, when we are asleep? We simply dislocate
the etheric body from the point of contact.
Subconscious
is what makes one
who
you are, why you are here
We are creators, this is the truth.
The Subconscious determines what happens to you, It is the most powerful in the universe. Our thoughts, whether we know it or not and by using our creative powers, we bring things into existence, good or bad, depending on the state of your Being. To know about it, work with it, then your life begins to change. All this is due to the work of the subconscious which controls, motivates, molds our entire life.
The subconscious is another name for the etheric body, the soul or the heart. Your etheric body or subconscious controls your heart beat, your breathing, your digestion, assimilation, and much much more. The body functions perfectly but when we only begin to live in the now.
No power is greater than the etheric body or subconscious in the universe except the superconscious aspect of the universal mind. Call it the nature of god; the same power used by divine creation, the power called the elixir of life. Instinct is that which runs the etheric body.
in fact.The only way to know truth is to realize it intuitively.”
-Sri Paramahansa Yogananda
Man uses thought and learning how to think correctly as well as we should. We listen, we absorb, but we do not think. Because we don't think we are completely under the control or spell of the ideas that were planted in our subconscious previously.
Your emotional nature either makes you or breaks you. Spiritual evolution is to get control of the emotional nature which is the creative energy and drive, and this to be transmuted to a positive, constructive force. The way emotions are used we do nothing else but destroy ourselves.
