This month I’m going to be talking about our Energy and our seven energy bodies. These bodies comprise something people talk about or speak about as our aura.
There is an aura, most of us start with the chakras, but we also have a Personal Energy Field that expands out from us and all around us. Anything from 2 feet to 30 feet, all the way around us, depending on what we are doing with our energy.
We’re going to figure out why we’re all so different when it comes to energy and energy systems. At first glance, our energy systems seem to be all the same.
We are also going to find out what happens in brief when our personal energy merges with someone else.
The Earth is surrounded by an electromagnetic field, just like any planet which is influenced by the Sun or Solar energies as well.
So here we are on Earth, this Being that’s been created by Earth, and we’re electromagnetic.
Our Life Force or ‘chi’, when we’re incarnated into a body, generates a field around us comprised of several different energy bodies, and sometimes people can sense different aspects of our energy bodies. An example would be – how someone is feeling, which relates to our emotional energy body.
Some of you may know about chakras if you’ve done any meditation work, yoga, or other types of focused energy work.
The chakras can be thought of as bundles or centers of energy that are focused on a particular area of the body. These energy bundles relate or have connections to the different energy bodies.
People in meditative practice soon find out that there is more than just one energy body.
These energy bodies expand all around us, they are not just located in one area of the body, because all 7 energy bodies generate our energy field or aura.
We have a Physical Energy Body, which you can think of as being created from our Life Force. This energy body is created from the fact that we are living in our body. Our DNA and our cells are active, and the mitochondria in our cells are active. We have physical energy which generates the personal presence of an individual.
Our Physical Energy Body also be read to intuit things like present Life Purpose, how the Chakras run in the body, which Life Force Channels are active, and things like that.
Then we have an Astral Energy Body.
A lot of people are very keen on astral travel (or at least trying to do it).
I’ve been reasonably successful with astral travel. I’m a very in-body person – I prefer to do most of my meditation in the body rather than out of it.
The Astral, also known as the Emotional Body, collects, stores, and transmits all human emotions and desires. So when we are born and we are incarnated, the Astral Body is the first energy body that we begin to grow.
Then we have the Mental Body. You can think of the Mental Energy Body as under construction.
Every time we think, every time we focus, every time we create, every time we have an idea, something might be happening in our Mental Energy Body.
We can create from our internal experience, or our collective or group experience of the whole of humanity.
We can also be affected in our Mental Body by thoughts from the collective or group of humanity, as well as our little family group, our social behaviors, and habits, or even our culture.
All of these things build the Mental Energy Body over time, and it is attached to the Emotional Body.
You could say that ‘You are what you think’, and ‘You are what you feel’.
Think of the Causal Body as ‘the collective goodwill of your Soul’ (Richard Rudd, the Gene Keys).
The Causal Energy Body is a sort of storage facility, but it’s also an energy holder of all the things we create in this life through our actions, our emotions, and our thoughts.
The Causal Body is what gets taken with us when we pass on or transition.
His Holiness the Dalai Lama is probably familiar with this one!
Think of the Buddhic Body as a higher vibrational resonance of the Astral or Emotional Body, so there is a connection there
