It is here that I would like to deal now with the actual process of abstraction from the physical body.
From that part of ourselves which projects consciousness into the 3-D realm a call is issued for that part to return to the whole. This causes certain reactions to occur which are as follows;
- this causes certain physiological effects to be felt, in connection with the heart, the nervous system, and the endocrine system. These effects are known to the medical profession and have been catalogued by them.
- our nervous system has its etheric counterpart and in the Hindu system these are known as the nadis. They are the electromagnetic energy filaments which penetrate every nerve in our bodies. It is through the etheric body and the nadis that our soul connects to this incarnation. They react to the directing impulse of return issued by the soul and reorganize themselves for abstraction from the dense physical sheath. This is felt as a vibration which runs through the entire nervous system.
- the effect of the vibration which thrills through the etheric nervous system causes a change in blood chemistry. This change comes through the glandular system which injects into the bloodstream a chemical which affects the heart. The life thread is anchored in the heart and this chemical starts the process whereby this life thread is separated. It also evokes a reflex action in the brain which causes loss of consciousness and or coma.
- another vibration ensues, whereby the nadis, the electromagnetic filaments penetrating every nerve in our bodies, are separated from the physical aspects of those nerves. The etheric body is thereby detached from the dense physical body but still interpenetrating it.
There is a pause at this time. This allows the above process to continue in the right timing for the person involved, with the least amount of effort, trauma, and as painlessly as possible. The detachment of the nadis is first evidenced in the eyes. When you are around a person who is dying you will notice that close to the day they take their last breath their eyes change. There is a kind of peace that descends on the person, the resistance to dying goes, and they begin to accept what is happening. This is the time, no matter what the illness, where the person seems to be fully here. It is at this point in the future when all the relatives and friends of that person will be in celebration around them; to celebrate their life together and to wish Godspeed to that person on their journey.
Next, the organized etheric body, already loosened from the dense physical sheath by the nadis, gathers itself for the final departure. It withdraws from the extremities towards the doorway by which it will exit the physical body. These exits are labeled above. In a person who is dying, as seen from the 3-D plane, all heat from the limbs starts to retreat into the main trunk of the body.
At this point another pull is felt. As the vital body which has animated all of the cells of that body is withdrawn, the being which is the elemental aspect of the earth calls back unto itself the matter of the physical body. Again, if you are around a person who is dying, this is evidenced by a notable pallor of the skin, which takes on a pale configuration and waxy appearance. At this point the vital body is preparing for exit, and the physical body is preparing for dissolution. It is here that another pause can occur. It is also here where sometimes the physical elemental of the body in question can resist the process, and tries to retain hold of the disappearing life force which animated it. However, when death is inevitable and is overlighted by the call of the soul, this pause lasts only for a few moments.
