In physical life it is the astral body that is happy, suffers, satisfies its desires, impulses and wishes through the organs of the physical body; after death these physical instruments are no longer at its disposal. The epicure can no longer satisfy his desire for choice food because the tongue has passed away with the physical body; but the desires, being connected with the astral body, remain in the man and this gives rise to the “burning thirst” of the Kamaloca period. (Kama = desire, wish; “loca” is “place”, but it is in reality a condition, not a place.) A man, who during physical life learns to transcend the physical body, shortens his time in Kamaloca.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

Nach dem Tode fehlen ihm diese physischen Instrumente. Der Feinschmecker kann seine Lust an guten Dingen nicht mehr befriedigen, denn die Zunge fehlt ihm; die ist mit dem physischen Leibe fortgegangen.

Es ist ein wirkliches Herauswachsen, wenn wir uns an Gegenständen des Schönen, der Harmonie entzücken. Sie führen uns schon hier aus der sinnlichen Welt heraus. Die sinnlich-materialistische Kunst bedeutet eine Erschwerung des Kamaloka-Zustandes, während die spirituelle Kunst eine Erleichterung desselben bedeutet. Jede edle, durchgeistigte Lust kürzt Kamaloka ab. Deshalb müssen wir uns schon hier jene Lüste und Begierden abgewöhnen, welche nur durch das sinnliche Instrument befriedigt werden können. Kamaloka-Zeit bedeutet eben eine Zeit des Abgewöhnens der sinnlichen Lüste und Triebe. Diese Zeit dauert ungefähr ein Drittel des gewöhnlichen Lebens. Etwas Eigentümliches gibt es beim Durchleben dieser Kamaloka-Zeit. Sie vollzieht sich so, daß der Mensch anfängt, wirklich sein ganzes Leben zu durchleben. War es gleich nach dem Tode ein lust- und leidloses Erinnerungsbild, so durchlebt er jetzt alle Lust und alles Leid wirklich noch einmal, und zwar in umgekehrter Art, so daß er alle Lust, alles Leid, das er anderen zugefügt hat, in sich selbst erleben muß.
