CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Astral Vision
This evening our subject includes many minor topics. It
also includes something in connection with astral force itself, the material or matter called astral life and the different modes in which it is manifested to us. The most important and patent way in which this life is manifested to the human being is generally known as clairvoyance. We see many things, under peculiar circumstances, and many have peculiar experiences in this line. Sometime it takes the form of many beautiful rays of light, of symbolical scenes, and the play of lights pure white and brilliant. We are at a loss why one should be able to see these different manifestations and others cannot. It means that they have not heretofore developed this power, but it does not mean that they are not able, that they do not have the ability to develope the power to do so.
Jain Education International
Persons devoid of scientific knowledge of these things are at a loss to understand why they should take place and why other people in all respects apparently similar, should not experience the same things. Unless we have a scientific understanding of these things it is difficult to give a satisfactory explanation that will not confuse us, or give us an erroneous idea as to their cause and effect.
