Dear Brenda

Thanks for your comments. I am not bringing forward detailed quotes,
but make the following general remarks.

That which we call form--our bodies and the lives composing it--is not a
constant unitary, singular, thing. These lives, are continually coming
into the body and leaving it, while we breath, eat and evacuate, absorbe
energies from our surrounding and send energies--of a feeling nature and
of thought-forms when we think and receive, we know not from where new
ideas. Not being static, when they leave us, it would seem that they
get the "rest," you speak of. Again there are the times we sleep, and
the bigger sleep--death. At both these times the Ego is acting on other
planes of consciousness--with other subtler forms of lives, and the
lower more material ones, would be having rest.

The other comment which occurs to me is regarding, the automatic
activity of the bodily organs, breathing, digestion, and all the others.
These are automatic, because the evolutionary process, from mineral to
more and more complex vegetable species and types, then from these into
the species and genera of the animals, have acquired the facility to
perform various actions. In our body we inherit the evolutionary
processes, and they go on of their own--unless we interfer, which we
sometimes do to the harm of the harmonious maintenance of a healthy
body.

Just a few remarks. Thank you for your response, Sophia 10//1/'97
