What we think of as the objective world is interpenetrated by matter of varying degrees of subtlety. The 'astral' is next to the physical, the least subtle of the planes or worlds that are invisible to the average human being , and which after the 'death' of the physical body is the region that everyone enters. This book is an imprint of the Theosophical Publishing House, Adyar, and is imported from India.
About the author: C. W. Leadbeater was a highly developed clairvoyant and the author of over thirty books on the spiritual life and on the psychic nature of man. He unfolded and perfected his own psychic faculties under the guidance of his Adept teacher and in 1893 began his clairvoyant investigations, on occasion collaborating with Annie Besant, the second President of the Theosophical Society. His worldwide lectures presented a new viewpoint to thousands of people.
