"Every living thing possesses an astral body This astral body has been built by the states of consciousness various life-forms have experienced, through which the evolving soul has passed thus far in its evolution."

All living things, even rocks, experience feelings.

"All living things, even rocks so long as they are alive, are capable of some degree of feeling. It is this feeling acquired through past experiences that enable the form to respond in the manner it does, no matter how slight the degree, to changes in its environment.

The feeling is a state of consciousness. And it is built into the stellar-cells of the astral body of the life-form as a tension, or desire, which conditions, or gives direction to, responses to similar situations in the future."

All life-forms have an unconscious mind or soul.

"The life-form of every living thing thus possesses an unconscious mind, or soul, which is the organization in the astral body of the total experiences through which the soul has passed up to that stage.
