Cavendish writes, “Modern occultism brings in the notion of the astral corpse. When a man dies his body remains on earth, but in his ‘body of light’ – a replica of the earthly body made of finer and subtler material – he goes to the … astral plane. His soul eventually mounts to still higher planes, leaving the (astral body) as an astral corpse. Just as the earthly body retains enough innate life force to grow its nails and hair for a time after death, the astral corpse retains a faint spark of life. It has an intense desire to live again … and can be attracted back into the normal world either consciously by necromancy or sometimes unconsciously. It can then absorb enough life-energy from living creatures to prolong its shadowy existence almost indefinitely. Some occultists believe that Spiritualist seances really summon not ‘spirits’ but astral corpses.” What can Creator tell us?

Cavendish writes, “Magic depends heavily on mimicry. … When a magician musters the full power of his will and acts in a certain way, he believes that he causes the forces of the universe outside him to act in the same way. This is an extension of the rule ‘as below, so above.’ As the magician behaves ‘below’ so will the forces of the universe behave ‘above.'” What is Creator’s perspective?
