I'm talking about the supposed non physical things suggested in the Ra Material which do not have physical correlates unlike mental structures or emotions.
Well astral bodies are generally considered to be the same as the body we use/experience in dreams. As for thought-forms, obviously these do not fit anywhere in to current scientific understanding as thoughts are perceived to be objects of the thinker rather than things in themselves as the mind is often considered to be an individual affair (although collective unconscious concepts would perhaps suggest thoughts are communal, or at least their gestalt imprints are). Although I've always wonder that if we are all part of a big collective unconscious, then how would you characterize that single mind?
