These lessons in Yoga, as taught by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, are to bring you into the clear white light and into your realization of the Self. Explain in your own words your findings about the astral body as you have tried to locate it within yourself. Each night for four nights, try and become conscious of what you were doing on the astral plane. We are maturing through the knowledge of the within of our Being which you have been studying these last few months. The art of concentration, though the basic and most fundamental control of all, is not the only control over the mind on the Classical Yoga path to enlightenment.
Harmony is control of even deeper aspects of the mind, as are understanding and actinic love.
This week will be another intense week for you, for we are going to study together the astral plane. This is an odic force world, as is the physical plane of which we are now well aware. Just because we are not aware of a place in a remote corner of the world does not mean it does not exist. So it is within the mind. Hundreds of books, articles, and papers have been written about the astral world.
