2017 November Programme

4 November 2017 5 p.m.

Healing & Other Occult Phenomena

Our VP, Tang Kwok Choon concludes his series of talks on evolution:

 

“We studied the mechanics of death of the physical body and that of rebirth. At that point we introduced the Etheric Double and looked at the part that it plays in preparation for the Ego to reincarnate into a physical body. We explored the Etheric Double, the vehicle of Prana, and its relationship with the nervous system and the physical body; and broadly examined some Chakras, their functions and powers, and how to protect and nurture them. And how to get additional prana free of charge.

Now we look at the Etheric Faculties that are behind the phenomena of Healing, Mesmerism, Magnetisation of Talismans, Mediumship, and the Atomic Web.”

We will be talking about both the higher and the lower mental planes. This is a continuation of the lectures on death and after and the 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'.
