Healing on the astral or inner planes??? What does this mean???

[Minyatur]

I always saw it as a form of spirit sleep.

To transcend this world's time/space into a greater time/space requires harvesting from it and being able to deal with a greater intensity of light. On the opposite, the spirit can retract into the inner planes to dwell where it is comfortable and attempt to reach out when strengthened. You could think of it as a womb, the Earth's womb.

In the heart of isis' post. Happy birthday to this deceased other-self and good wishes in the healing process. You were us and will always be that.

I appreciate the comment.. Is there some sort of alleviating karma in this regard?  I read some past like regressionists that sometimes souls will create for them their own hell?

I think it is like a long sleep which allows to distance yourself from trauma.

On Crowley :

This entity thus became very unhealthy, as you may call it, in a spiritual complex manner, and it is necessary for those with this type of distortion towards inner pain to be nurtured in the inner planes until such an entity is capable of viewing the experiences again with the lack of distortion towards pain.

I think it aids with an accumulated charge, but does not resolve the karma that lead to this accumulation, but aids in resolving it. Forgiveness is what alleviates karma, time still heals.

I've also heard that there are some parts in the inner planes which is liken to hell, which is where some of this dogma comes from.  Is that true?

The material describes the inner planes as being the time/space portion of this world. That there are both positive and negative teachers residing there, so I think both ways are possible, just like it is with life in space/time.

The distinction to be made is that being conscious in the inner planes requires having reached green-ray activation, and would allow the incarnative process to stop being automatic.
