Big ole' heap of questions

["ihya1347" <ihya1347@...>]

 In one of the replys to the 'nature of the astral and mental 
bodies of plants, animals,& objects ' etc, I believe Rawn said that 
everything was an expresion of an eternal mental body. But in PME, 
Bardon says that what makes humans 'made in the image of god' is 
that they possess all 4 elements, which makes them a little picture 
of the universe, the wholde microcosm/macrocosm deal. Because of 
that ( and im shaky on this, PME is just a bit out of my leauge..:) )
the human spirit is imortal, capable of reincarnation, etc. So would 
say, a tree's spirit be "imortal" because its an expresion of the 
idea of a tree? and that expression lasts even when the tree is 
physicaly destroyed? What about the different elements, Bardon says 
that only human beings possess all 4, but could an object or plant 
express any? Would that differ from expressing the idea of fire 
compared to expressing the element of fire? In your response about 
the alchemical properties of different objects, i believe you said 
that what made the object powerful was how purely it expresed its 
idea. So, if an object could purely express an element, would that 
be the reason certain objects are atributed to different 
sephirot/planets, like iron is atributed to mars because it 
expresses the element of fire well....?

Just a bit more and this barage of questions will be over :) In 
the self healing archaeous, im stuck at the step requiring astral 
projection, since I havn't learned that ability yet. If anyone could 
offer any advice on this, or just clue me in if its better to simply 
wait until I encounter astral projection in IIH, it would be greatly 
apreciated. I know theres lots of material on the net about astral 
projection, but I trust those sources far, far less than the 
opinions of the people here. 

Heh...had no idea I had so many questions! Hope my wording wasnt 
too confusing. If you take a stab at this e-mail, then your a braver
man than I. And your also a very kind soul, thanks to anyone who 
trys to lift me out of my ( semi-permenant ) cloud of confusion.
