The concept that not only animals and humans are living beings is present in all the esoteric teachings of antiquity. This idea, dating back to a Truth that emerged from time to time among the most evolved individuals of each population, was the genesis of many myths and many contaminations on which the fears or hopes of men have been inserted over time. embodied, giving shape to animistic concepts in which, for example, rivers, mountains or trees contained spiritual entities that elected them as their vital territory.
In a civilization and in a modern thought animism no longer has the possibility of existing, yet those ancient truths can still find a place to be located, even if inserted in a different and less imaginative conception of what Reality is.
One of the most difficult terms to define is the term "life". Indeed, how is it possible to define it in a useful way? From the point of view of the philosophical teaching presented by the Guides, Life could be identified in the Absolute or in His Vibration First that permeates everything, since it is it that leads to the constitution and differentiation of reality on the various planes of existence, fragmenting what is, on the other hand, fundamentally a unity into an illusory multiplicity. This definition, however, does not seem to me to give much space to the possibility of reasoning since the conclusion, although extremely important, can only be one, that is, that everything is life.
Let us limit ourselves, then, to a more restricted conception which allows us to observe some other aspect of the astral plane that we are examining and which can be accepted by each of you who listen to us from within the physical plane.
Having heard and accepted as a possible truth that every individual on the physical plane must have suitable bodies on the lower planes in order to interact with the environment in which he lives, io I would say that we could define, momentarily, "alive" any physical body to which at least an astral body is associated, that is, which has at least the possibility of emotionally perceiving what is happening around it.
Apparently two forms typical of the physical plane do not fit into this concept of life: the mineral and vegetable form, but it is so only in appearance; if it is true, in fact, that neither the mineral nor the plant possess a structured mental body and, therefore, they are not able to think and reason, it is also true that both these forms possess, albeit to a different extent and structure, a body astral.

The astral body of the mineral
The astral body of the minerale it is decidedly rudimentary, and it does not possess a real awareness of existing both on the physical plane and, much less, on the astral plane and therefore has no reactions to what it is experiencing; his is a sort of passive life in which he finds himself at the mercy of the natural atmospheric forces and the internal forces of matter itself.
How can one imagine the astral body of a mineral, what is its way of existing on the astral plane and what is it for on it, since everything has a function in the elaborate design of the Great Architect?
The astral body of the mineral, with its uniform and heavy astral vibrations, constitutes a kind of bench on the astral plane against which other vibrations acting on the astral plane can break or deflect. These astral bodies of minerals sometimes become a kind of retarders or accelerators of the vibrations of the astral plane which strike them; at other times, however, they absorb them, holding them in sé with the vibratory rigidity of the heavier and less malleable astral matter that composes them, to the point that these finer vibrations enter, having found a gap, in the astral body of the mineral and continue to bounce against its heavier vibrations remaining "imprisoned" inside of it until they find the right path to succeed.
These particular characteristics of the minerals have been well known over time to those who have been involved like me with magic. For example, from them derives the belief (with a certain foundation of truth) that particular minerals or crystals can positively or negatively affect the wearer. In fact, certain minerals (similarly, for example, to those that on the physical plane retain or reject heat), have an astral composition that retains or repels particular astral vibrations, so that they can sometimes act as small shields against vibrations, for to give an example, of pain coming from astral bodies of disembodied entities who suffer, or from astral bodies of embodied people immersed in a situation of suffering.
From these assumptions the concept of talisman present in all mythologies, and to it can be traced back the "gifts" that Michel, in the course of the meetings, brings you.
Be careful, however, not to fall into the excess of thinking that a talisman or a certain crystal can give happiness or heal diseases: the vibrations of joy possibly captured by a crystal, to be felt and act positively on the person who wears it. of themselves, they must find some analogous vibration, however small and deeply buried, in the person himself, e there must be the inner will to make the two analogous vibrations consonate, causing their momentary accumulation which has the effect of amplifying the person's inner vibration. Without this consonation of analogous vibrations there can be no effect on the person.
As for, however, disease, crystal or talisman cannot heal it, do not believe it and do not be fooled by unscrupulous characters who try to make ends meet by taking advantage of the credulity or needs of those who approach them: everything they can do (but you must be able to operate on astral vibrations to prepare in the the right way both the crystal and the talisman) is to amplify any soothing vibrations present in the individual in need, allowing him to flow in a more continuous and balanced way the many defenses that everyone possesses in that great laboratory which is the physical body of every being.
What I have said so far also explains the so-called "Impregnation" of the environment: the heavier matter of an environment can capture vibrations coming from the astral bodies of the people who have lived in that environment and the literature of the unusual is full of environments where a crime has been committed and whoever enters it is assailed by apparently inexplicable sensations of fear, anguish or even terror.
What I have said up to this point is also valid for plants, albeit with partly different variables.
The astral body of plants
In fact, the astral body of plants is decidedly more structured than that of the mineral, and this is logical, since the plant has a sort of its own nervous system (dissimilar in constitution from the human one, of course) that allows it to interact with the environment even if in a limited way: for example, if the sun is too hot for its leaves, it will not passively suffer as a mineral would, but tries to remedy the unpleasant situation by moving the leaves or the stem in search of a sensation more pleasant and, in so doing, he puts into action, thanks to his astral body, a desire and a form of emotion, rudimentary but real, which diversify his experiences.
It is precisely in this greater interactivity with the environment, this greater ability to respond to both physical and astral stimuli that affect it, that the main difference between mineral and vegetable on the astral plane must be identified.
If you pour your affection onto a plant, it is able to perceive it (not as affection, but as a pleasant astral vibration) and tends, as a child does, to imitate and reproduce it, with the result of creating in its astral body the birth of vibrations similar to those you have poured out and which, as in the case of the talisman, can accumulate with yours in particular moments, making both you and the plant feel feelings of well-being.
How many of you have found themselves in front of a centenary tree, majestic in its grandeur, and have not remained unscathed by its charm and not only, have sat under its branches feeling calm and at peace with themselves. What happened in those cases?
It has happened that the vibrations of all the people who over time have interacted positively with that tree (and it is very rare that the interaction with a plant is negative) have taught him to emit positive astral vibrations in the presence of human beings, vibrations that , unconsciously, you receive on the astral and consonate with yours making them stronger and more constant than they were a few moments before.
This astral environment made of mineral and vegetable bodies that I have tried to make you imagine or intuit, is only a small, simple part of what is the astral environment, a support that will expand by examining the astral bodies of animals and men and their influence on the astral plane, coming to better define the concept of astral "atmosphere" and to determine its characteristics, boundaries and necessity.

The text is very clear.
It demonstrates once again, without a shadow of a doubt, how all beings are connected and interdependent.
it is curious how reading these concepts, which I had known for some time, reveals a sense of truth, harmony and peace.
Listening. Thank you.
Now it is very clear to me what my grandfather used to say to me: “I talk to the plants”.
His speaking with plants, born of his closeness to nature, like many of his generation, is the translation of a "communication" on the astral plane. Thank you.
