We will be talking about both the higher and the lower mental

astral plane. A short description of the heaven world and its inhabitants
will be covered. Does everyone go to heaven? We shall soon find out.
The Mental Plane is also the realm of the Mind, i.e. the plane
where thought arises. We will discuss further the subject of elemental
kingdoms and the elemental essence that ensoul thoughts. Hence, this lecture
serves as an introduction to 'thought-forms', one of the most important
aspects of nature. This lecture is useful, if not a prerequisite for the 6th
lecture on 'Thought-Forms'.

are thought-forms? How your thoughts affect others, near or far from you.
The virtue of having the right thoughts and the consequences of bad
thoughts.
