Spirit to Mind; Mind to Body

For people who see humans as a trilogy of body, mind, and spirit, there is the opportunity to establish a hierarchy whereby both body and mind are tools at the service of a superior entity–the spirit within, as our individual and unique expression.

There are many exercises and disciplines that have demonstrated that mind has control over body. It is only spiritual discernment that confirms that spirit has dominion over mind. Therefore the natural hierarchy of commands is from spirit to mind and from mind to body. That hierarchy is congruent with the order of the energetic field of the vibrational body from the causal to the mental, then to the emotional, then to the ethereal, and fina

lly, to the physical or solid field. The body's intelligence is its instincts; in the emotional realm, there are feelings spontaneously enveloping us.

The mind's intelligence is the intellect. For the soul, the spiritual center of our higher self, it is spirit which operates as a higher form of intuition that can reach us in a flash. Mystics call this revelation. It is a knowing without process.
