electrical body forms a natural part of the existence of every living being (jiva), and is always there. It is because of it, that you function. When you eat, it is the electrical body that carries out the digestion. It is involved in the production of blood, the circulation of blood which is all done internally. It is the electrical body that is responsible for the light that allows your eyes to see. Even anger-pride-deceit-greed, happens because of the electrical body.
