Question asked by Lukes B
is it true that the astral body is made by trilons of trilions of trilions of electrons? each electron contains information like a big biblioteque…the only things that can damage the astral body are drugs and loud noises like in discoteque…evil psichiatric persons have forced me to take legal drugs for 7 year…is there a way to heal from legal drugs ? beacuse the risk is that these damages or false and erased informations could remain for even some lifes times…how can one heal quickly the astral body that contains the chakras? it is from twenty years that some people spray drugs in the skies…so i don't know how it will finish this timeline for people…if you want more information read thiaoouba prophecy book…or ra material…
Dear Lukes B,
Thank you for your question. From a Tibetan Buddhist perspective, we all have a gross body which is our physical body, and we also have a subtle body, which you could term to be an astral body or body made up of energy. Our chakras are part of this subtle body. Within Tibetan Buddhist tantra, one would utilise meditations on the chakras and psychic energies of the subtle body to bring about spiritual realisations and ultimately gain enlightenment. The major aspect of this process is to have a calm and steady mind, therefore as with all Buddhist practices, we refrain from taking intoxicants (recreational drugs, alcohol, etc.). This is to ensure that our mind, and our thought processes are not clouded, so that we can think straight and are able to function well enough to engage in the higher meditations and we have enough control of our minds to not engage in non-virtuous actions.
Now, our minds, the core of our very being cannot be destroyed, because we all have the potential to become a Buddha, an enlightened being. The information and memories from our previous lives are not stored in our subtle/astral body, but are contained within the mind. So even if something happens to our subtle body then our minds, and all the information, etc., is not destroyed or damage. Buddhists believe that at the time of death, even the subtle body dissolves back into the elements, and what actually moves on to the next life is the mind. It is not the subtle body. Therefore, this damage or destruction of the subtle body does not mean the end of the memories, or knowledge from previous lives. The way to access the mind, and through that, spiritual evolution is via a steady practice of meditation. The focus should not be on the subtle body, but the mind. We all need to develop a calm and stable mind to progress on the spiritual path.
Sometimes however, due to our physical form, this ability to calm the mind is not possible, due to whatever medical reasons. In these cases it is necessary for some people to be on medication that stabilises the mind so that a person can think properly. Therefore modern medicine does not conflict with spiritual evolution. Do not get me wrong, here I am talking to medicines that actually help people, not drugs which are damaging to a person’s mental health and wellbeing. If our bodies and gross minds are not well, we cannot focus on the internal mind and engage in the meditations necessary to calm the mind and evolve spiritually. The key here, is to work with the mind. I hope this helps.
Thank you.
