Summary: mind is matter-prana-chi-kundalini
Comment: Those who have studied eastern energy modalities such as Reiki, Prana or Kundalini will enjoy this early century interpretation of the energy body. Old Fashioned language is used but those who have studied the modern energy understandings will be intrigued by explanations that we now know even quantum physicists support about the mind and body connection.

Summary: Interesting example of elaboration on false assumptions
Comment: The Etheric Double, by Arthur Edward Powell, first published in 1925, is well written, clear, comprehensive on the chosen subject and probably completely incomprehensible to modern educated readers. Incomprehensible, not because the writer is obtuse, which he is not, but because the author builds a view of human existence that depends on assumptions none but the most gullible would believe.
The author's intention is obviously to make the world a better place for mankind by improving man himself. The method chosen is to explain that there are seven kinds of matter from which man is made. The three most coarse (solid, liquid and gaseous) making up the physical body, and the four more refined (super etheric, etheric, sub atomic and atomic) making up other bodies such as the Etheric Double, the Astral Body, the Mental Body and the Causal Body. Apparently man should be able to improve himself by strengthening and learning how to improve the communication between his several bodies. To give the author credit, the content is a compilation of works by previous students of the occult and is probably a lot easier to read than their works.
The only reason I read beyond the first page was because the author was my father. The mystery is: How could my father, who always insisted that logic and commonsense should rule human behavior, how could he have written such balderdash.
