Good thoughts produce vibrations of the finer matter of the body, which by its specific gravity tends to float in the upper part of the ovoid: whereas bad thoughts, such as selfishness and greed, are always oscillations of the grosser matter, which tends to gravitate towards the lower part of the ovoid. Consequently the ordinary man who yields himself not infrequently to selfish thoughts of various kinds, usually expands the lower part of his mental body, and presents roughly the appearance of an egg with its larger end downwards. The man who has not indulged those lower thoughts, but has devoted himself to higher ones, tends to expand the upper part of his mental body and therefore presents the appearance of an egg standing on its similar end. All such appearances, however,are only temporary, the tendency being for the symmetry of the ovoid to reassert itself by degrees.
From a study of the colours and striations of a man's mental body, the clairvoyant can perceive his/her character and the progress he/she has made in his/her present life. The mental body is more or less refined in its constituents,according to the stage of the intellectual development at which the man has arrived. It is an object of great beauty, the delicacy and rapid motion of its particles giving it an aspect of living iridescent light, and this beauty becomes an extraordinarily radiant and entrancing loveliness as the intellect becomes more and more highly evolved and is employed chiefly on pure and sublime topics.
