Distance, gravitation and time on the astral plane.

Thus on the astral (inner) plane where velocities exceed the speed of light, distance, gravitation and time become a different order than on the familiar physical (outer) plane.

"When astral-world velocities are attained, existence acquires properties that are contradictory to physical experience, but which are none the less consistent with what the Special Theory of Relativity demands when such velocities are present.

Under these velocities time as we know it, no longer exists. Distance as we know it, disappears and is supplanted by difference in vibratory frequency. Gravitation gives way and its place is taken by the principle of resonance. And instead of mechanical power, thought-energy performs many similar functions."

"These properties of astral existence, displacing those with which we are so familiar on the physical plane, permit of various conditions that contradict material experience."

The interior body, or astral body functions in accordance with the properties of a high-velocity, slow-time plane of existence. The exterior body, or the physical body functions in accordance with the properties of a slow-velocity, fast-time plane of existence.
