The Will-Star
Notes by Camilla Wandrey
After death, the background of human experience is formed by what has been left behind: the will-star, that is, everything that was previously outside, including one's own body. This will star is the spiritual part of the physical body, the spirit that permeates and energizes the physical body. And what radiates to you as wisdom is the activity, the mobility of the etheric body.
The creative power of the soul, which we radiate as soul light into spiritual space, slumbers deep within us because it is connected with something that we do not and should not know about in our ordinary lives. It is transformed during our physical life so that our physical body can contain life and consciousness. It is the life-organizing power. This spiritual luminosity illuminates things for us in the spiritual realm.
