Exchanges - preconditions for physical life and spiritual life

01/19/2016

Our life is a succession of exchanges we make with the universe. Cosmic life enters us, we infuse it with our own emanations, then we send it back. Again we absorb this life, and again we return it. The most obvious expressions of this are eating and breathing – if these exchanges are prevented from taking place, weakness, illness and death will follow. But the exchanges we must make in order to live are not limited to eating and breathing. Or, to be more precise, they also consist in eating and breathing in all the different regions of the universe, so that our subtle bodies – the etheric, astral, mental, causal, buddhic and atmic bodies – are also nourished. When you understand how you can find food in the universe to suit your different bodies, you will feel your life resonating like an immense symphony. But you must first start by re-establishing communications, so that the currents of energy can circulate between you and the universe, and this can only be achieved by working with thought.
