FUNCTIONING IN “MENTAL BODY.” 227
body, for, to do that, it would have to see objectively and normally. The common idea, then, that the spirit-body “sees” at the same time that the physical body sees, could not apply if the spirit-body had left the physical, hence the physical does not see the spirit going away. I am aware all this is open to question, but I men- tion it in order to explain a recent experience in which my body, soul and spirit (or my bodies physical, astral and mental—call them what you will), all functioned at once. To prevent wrangling over words, I will call these bodies A, B and C, of which A is the organism that is apparently normal, and which, when met in the street, is called by my name.
On July 15 last three gentlemen called to see me, and while we were conversing on occultism three questions were put tome. As I could not answer them, and as none of my “Teachers” were present, I said that I would try to go to India in either body B or C, and ask a “ Brother” there to answer the questions. I expected to go as usual in the mental body, B, leaving the physical body, A, in the care of C, but something different took place. From the back of the neck of A a large crystal ball (C) shot out and flew over to India, fell at the feet of my Hindu brother, asked the questions, telepathed the answers back through B to A, which repeated them to my visitors, and then C came back. Whilst C was coming back A got the message, “ Hullo! I am just about half-way between Russia and Italy and there’s an earthquake just going to take place.”
