Body, physical - must become a dwelling for the spirit
As spirits, human beings have not yet really taken possession of their physical body. They drag it around, they are weighed down by it, crushed by it, sometimes even stifled by it, but it cannot be said they have settled into it, for it is not a dwelling that is worthy of them. So, in the meantime, the spirit (or rather, what is considered the spirit) walks around with the body, like a right pair, stumbling around, arm in arm... You'll say, 'What a sight!' Well, yes, human beings are indeed quite a sight all the while they are unaware of what their spirit and their body represent and of the work they both have to do together. But since you know what this work is, do your best to free the divine principle within you, so that it can rise as high as possible and, on its way back down, purify and illuminate its dwelling-place. Your physical body, along with your astral and mental bodies, is the dwelling through which your spirit must one day be able to manifest.
