THOUGHT-FORMS

One of the most interesting of the highroads from the physical to the astral is that of the study of thought.Articles on the subject are appearing in papers unconnected with the Theosophical Society, and a medical specialist.

REPRESENT

We have often heard it said that thoughts are things, and there are many among us who are persuaded of the truth of this statement.There are some serious difficulties in our way, for our conception of space is limited to three dimensions, and when we attempt to make a drawing we practically limit ourselves to two.All students know that what is called the aura of man is the outer part of the cloud-like substance of his higher bodies, interpenetrating each other, and extending beyond the confines of his physical body, the smallest of all.Man, the Thinker, is clothed in a body composed of innumerable combinations of the subtle matter of the mental plane, this body being more or less refined in its constituents and organised more or less fully for its functions, according to the stage of intellectual development at which the man himself has arrived.
