yah, I am still navigating and formulating these understandings, and hopefully with some direct experience, I will be able to say something more concrete.
my main emphasis of work has always been working with the mind directly, and specifically, with the archetypal level of mind. These investigations have been taken to quite a satisfactory level for me at the moment.
my current emphasis has shifted to bridging these understandings of the deep mind into the energy centres, and seeing where, if any, the causative factors are. As an offhand extension, I threw in some thoughts about the other 'bodies' that Ra mentions - the astral, the devachanic, the etheric, the buddhic - and wondering how they fit in.
but yeah, at present, still speculative. Direct experience should address that
I can share an experience with you, if you would like. A few months ago when I realized that I moved away from my daily meditation sessions (there are times when that is simply not an option, and I am not complaining), I decided to go back to the place which is kinda between our reality and the astral. In here, I started an energy-work, and then when I was having trouble actually using my body as a conduit, a thought hit me - almost like my higher self directly talking to me-. That thought was: "You currently might not experience a body without limits, but you indeed have one". And then I got prompted to simply use lightbodies for the work instead of trying to focus them with the way I imagine myself to be in real life. Needless to say, it was a liberating experience.
