THE CAUSAL BODY OF THE ADEPT.
Probably to those who cannot yet see any of
the higher bodies of man, the illustrations given
in this book will be to some extent suggestive
and even illuminative, and it is in the hope that
that may be so that it has been published. Yet
those who can see, while recognising to the full
the painstaking care and skill of the artist, will
all agree that even the lowest of these super-
physical planes can never be adequately pour-
trayed on paper or canvas. If this be true,
as it assuredly is, how much more hopelessly
impossible (if one may be pardoned the use of
an improper, but expressive phrase) must it
be to try to represent the Adept—the man who
has attained the goal of humanity—who has
become something more than man.
In his case the size of the causal body has
enormously increased, and shines with a sun-like
splendour far beyond all imagination in its
glorious loveliness. Of the beauty of form and
