How do "discarnate entities" learn ?

[anagogy]

I guess my mind just can't comprehend being discarnate. If there's no body and no learning WTF are you experiencing?

You can learn without a body, it just becomes all mental. However, attachment to form naturally causes one to gravitate towards form, so a discarnate being of the 3rd density variety, would find itself on the astral planes and these are vibrational levels that still comprise a degree of tangible form. Thus beings such as this would tend to create bodies for themselves on these planes. If you ever astral project, you'll most likely find yourself in a body of sorts, resembling your physical body. Nevermind the fact that such a body is "unnecessary" on this plane. You create it out of habit. It's what you're used to.

Pure time/space has no form, but we do not reside in pure time/space after death (well a wanderer might actually). What we call "astral planes" are, to beings that occupy higher vibrational planes of time/space, almost like a physical plane to them, relative to what they know as discarnate beingness. It is less physical than what we know of as matter, but nevertheless, it has a degree of physicality to it. It is "astral matter".

But on a higher plane, where the orientation is more toward the nonphysical, a purely conceptual experience may be had, which sounds lackluster to us, because we are so completely attached to form, but these planes are every bit as vivid to these nonphysicals as our reality of tangibleness is to us. We may derive joy from swimming through a crystal clear beautiful stream, they might derive joy from riding a vibrational iridescent wave of perpetual inspiration.
