Question: Can you explain what is the Pranic Triangle?

Answer: Here is a brief explanation. Please see the link to a video clip on this subject at the end of the blog.

The “Pranic Triangle” is a term used to describe the three centers of prana that exist in our etheric body and act as conduits of sun and earth energy into and out of our physical bodies.

The etheric body is the electromagnetic energy that surrounds, and is a duplicate, of our physical body. It acts as a permeable sheath through which “information” passes from the environment to our physical senses as well as a conduit through which pass information from our internal senses out to the environment.

The “Pranic Triangle” is made up of three centers that are in the etheric body. They are the center between the shoulder blades, the center above the diaphragm, and the center at the area of the spleen. These three centers act as the main conduit through which the energy from the sun, called “prana” is absorbed into our physical bodies. This is how we gain the benefit of the sun. Or, if we are over-exposed to the sun, this is how the energy of the sun hurts us by overheating or sunstroke.

Question: What is the “constitution of man” and what is the “personality” referred to in the Ageless Wisdom Teachings?

Answer: This is a question that is often asked, and in response, I have presented a series of lectures on the topic of the “constitution of man.” Here is a brief explanation to help you get started. (See below for a video clip link)

The entire life — including the mineral, animal, vegetable, and human kingdoms — has the physical aspect as well as the subtle aspects. In reference to the human being, the subtle mechanism is often referred to as the “constitution of man”.

The “constitution of man” is the sum total of the seven bodies that a human being is capable of forming. They are, from the densest to the most subtle, the physical/etheric, emotional, mental, intuitional, atmic, monadic, and divine bodies. As we form each body, it becomes an important tool of communication with corresponding levels of life. For example, when the physical body is formed, we are able to contact the physical life and communicate with the physical existence. When the emotional body is formed, we are able to communicate with people and all of life with our emotions; we are able to register emotions from people and are able to communicate our emotions to others. The same applies to all our bodies.
