If you looked at a man with both the sights in turn, you would see the buttons at the back of his coat in both cases; only if you used etheric sight you would see them through him, and would see the shank-side as nearest to you, but if you looked astrally, you would see it not only like that, but just as if you were standing behind the man as well.
"No one is born of woman; offspring are materialized by astral beings through the help of their cosmic will into specially patterned, astrally condensed forms. The recently physically disembodied being arrives in an astral family through invitation, drawn by similar mental and spiritual tendencies. "The astral body is not subject to cold or heat or other natural conditions.
"If you look at the back of a watch etherically you see all the wheels through it, and the face through them, but backwards; if you look at it astrally, you see the face right way up and all the wheels lying separately, but nothing on the top of anything else."
Now all these statements are true, and yet it is quite possible for people who do not normally see astrally to misunderstand them.
For example, if he looks astrally at a glass cube, its sides will all appear equal, as we know they really are, whereas on the physical plane he sees the further side in perspective that is, it appears smaller than the nearer side, which is, of course, a mere allusion due to his physical limitations.
As a result of Lucifer’s encroachment, this could be done only in special states of the soul. At those times a spiritual world appeared to man in the guise of the astral. The corresponding spiritual beings manifested themselves in forms which embodied only the higher principles of the human being, and in those principles the symbols of their particular spiritual forces were astrally visible.
He was vaguely aware that he had been astrally scratched across the nose. "And you think a girl like Anne will be willing to play patient Griselda?" he asked, scornfully. "I don't know. You think she shouldn't?" "I think she shouldn't. I tell you frankly he doesn't deserve it." "Oh, as for that!" said Mrs. Vandervelde, airily. Hayden paused in his restless walk, and looked at her earnestly.
"You are getting quite stylish, using perfumes!" Without a word, I motioned her to smell my hand. "What an attractive rose fragrance! It is unusually strong!" Thinking it was "strongly unusual," I silently placed the astrally scented blossom under her nostrils. "Oh, I love jasmine!" She seized the flower.
The body of the average man is like a fifty-watt lamp, which cannot accommodate the billion watts of power roused by an excessive practice of KRIYA. Through gradual and regular increase of the simple and "foolproof" methods of KRIYA, man's body becomes astrally transformed day by day, and is finally fitted to express the infinite potentials of cosmic energy-the first materially active expression of Spirit.
"My son, you may now comprehend more fully that I am resurrected by divine decree," Sri Yukteswar continued, "as a savior of astrally reincarnating souls coming back from the causal sphere, in particular, rather than of those astral beings who are coming up from the earth.
