The "Soul Sleep" of the Butterfly???

Does this "Soul sleep" of the butterfly
represent the Kamaloka state described by both KH and HPB?

See:

And see also the sequence of photos at:

Notice in photos 8, 9 and 10, the "creation"
of the "shell"....

"From Kama Loka . . . once awakened from their post-mortem torpor, 
the newly translated 'Souls' go all (but the shells) according to 
their attractions, either to Devachan or Avitchi."  Master KH

"When the sixth and seventh principles are gone, carrying off with 
them the finer, spiritual portions of that which once was the 
personal consciousness of the fifth, then only does the shell 
gradually develop a hazy kind of consciousness of its own from what 
remains in the shadow of personality."   Master KH
