Idiocy is the result of such a fright of the etheric body's reluctance to enter properly into the physical body. A clairvoyant may perceive the etheric body of such people protruding above the physical head and because the etheric body is not properly structured into the physical head, the brain remains behind in its development, for the etheric body does not work upon it as it should. Many cases of idiocy to-day are dependent upon this.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"VIII. Supplementary Thoughts on the Law Of Reincarnation and Karma.
