Life - result of the exchanges we make with nature

03/14/2010

Life can be defined as the result of the exchanges we make with the whole of nature. Life is made up only of exchanges. 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 need 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 various bodies, your life will feel 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.
