Seven Bodies: Ra vs. Traditional Esoteric Teachings

[anagogy]

I have no doubt that:

Yellow-ray body = physical body
Green-ray body = astral body
Blue-ray body = devachanic or mental body
Violet-ray body = buddhic body*

But, I have no idea if there is some correspondence in esoteric teachings to red and orange-ray bodies. Someone have any idea?

When describing a particular body, be it gross or subtle (or somewhere inbetween), you actually need 2 pieces of information in order to determine which body is being referred to: the density and subdensity). This can be confusing to really SEE.

For example, the red ray sub density of every density, is the physical body of that density (the physical construct capable of carrying that type of identification, or consciousness, in the physical realm). But only, and ONLY *if* you are referring to the 1st density: sub red ray body is it the "unconstructed elemental physical body without form" in my opinion.

For example, the 3rd density sub red ray body is in the "true color yellow" ray spectrum (its sub-densities), and thus, even though being yellow, might be referred to, by someone like me, as a "red ray" body, but it is *not* an unconstructed physical elemental body, rather, it is a physical construct that has the necessary circuitry capable of carrying 3rd density consciousness within the physical realm (a hominid brain for example). The thing of it is, you have both of those red ray bodies I just described. Thus, you have to very very specific in order to determine which body is being actually referred to. So you could think of it as having 49 bodies (7x7).

On the other hand, the 3rd density sub yellow ray body (density 3: subdensity 3) is the self aware part of you (Ra might call it the "shell of yellow ray" when referring to it in nonphysical), whose vibrational nature is synonymous with the middle astral (the realm of self aware beings). Thus it is the middle astral body when referred in that context. And also the place that type of consciousness would naturally "float" to when un-anchored from its physical shell. Remember how Hitler was healing on the "middle astral planes"? Well why middle? Well, that was because he was 3rd density, and because he failed to follow purely the negative path and graduate, when he died, he ended up on the middle astral. Because that is where he was vibrating, spiritually.

The bodies Ra described, in my opinion, were essentially the basic red ray sub density bodies of densities 1--7, even though they referred to them as the various colors. Technically, they ARE those various colors, but the physical manifestations of those colors (the red ray subdensity of each sequential density). Each sequential sub density red ray body is filled with more and more light (as are all the others). Both love/light and light/love.

So again, while technically accurate, it was NOT specific. Or very clear (though way more clear than most other channeling). As Ra said, it is a complex subject. The sub-red ray body of 2nd density is the physical body, before the mind and spirit complex enters. Again, I don't fault Ra for calling that the orange ray body, because it is technically true, just not specific and clear. but they were aware of the immense difficulty of absorbing these concepts, and spoke very slowly, and had limited time to speak. It makes perfect sense that they would start where they did.

Ka was the word used to refer the soul. Causal body is the body of human soul. Someone think like this?

It would make complete sense, because the causal body, which is the form maker body, or indigo body, is the very seat of the "spirit complex". It is the logos in microcosm. The sense of self as a portion of creator. A being of infinite worth.

Is the Buddha someone who activated the Violet-ray body?

In my opinion yes. Being able to seat one's consciousness in the Buddhic body, while physically incarnate, is equivalent to a perfect configuration of mind/body/spirit where all is seen as one.

As for the "etheric body" of traditional occult literature, Ra is instead using the word to describe the causal body (or what I would call the causal body, but now, because of you I want to call it the "kausal body" lol).

The etheric body of traditional literature is a real body as well. Suffice it to say, whether incarnate in red ray physical, or not, you have 7 bodies still. A vitality sheath. This is that body. The physical body "in potentiation". The physical body you have, regardless of whether you are physical or not. The part that plugs into the more outer one you are living in right now.  

The orange ray subdensity body of every density is the lower astral body. And green ray is the higher astral body (again, unless you are referring to: 4th density: sub-red ray body which is the physical body of 4th density -- a body capable of carrying 4th density consciousness in the physical plane.

These are simply my opinions from deeply looking into this over the years. Please take what resonates with you and discard the rest.
