Spirit and matter
Without matter, no manifestation of the spirit would be possible
April 26th 2026
When we talk of a ‘pure spirit’, this is simply a manner of speaking, for a pure spirit cannot exist on the plane of manifestation; it melts back into the cosmic ocean.
However exalted, however divine a spirit may be, it needs a body or, if you prefer, a vehicle, a material frame in order to manifest itself. It is thanks to this material support that a spirit can express itself and work. But the more sublime the spirit, the more ethereal, subtle and luminous its body or vehicle—the matter that envelops it. So much so, that the two, spirit and matter, can no longer be distinguished. And yet, spirit and matter remain two opposing poles; otherwise no manifestation would be possible.
