What does the Spirit desire?


Does the Spirit body have corresponding organs, anatomically considered, which pertained to the mortal body?


And when the Spirit enters the Spirit world, does it have the same desires, inclinations and tastes that governed it here?


And further, is the Spirit body an exact likeness―or counterpart of the mortal body of a well developed mortal body at the ultimate of its mundane life?


Externally, the Spirit body corresponds to the natural body, but there is a constant internal change going on.


As the Spirit life mentally becomes larger, more advanced in wisdom, the external takes on the changes of the internal and becomes more beautiful, more perfectly formed and more with the needs of the indwelling intelligence.


Whatever a (wo)man is in the Spirit land, the representation appears on the external.


They cannot seem to be what they are not.


There is no such thing as disguising one's soul characteristics after death.


All things are governed by stern, immutable law, and the soul is not exempt from law―


Form is not exempt from law, but all move by virtue of law, and law that is adapted to their unfoldment.


Every form in being changes its external characteristics according to its own internal law.


Yes, the Spirit body does retain the external organic life so far as form is concerned if you speak of it as belonging to human life.


All the various organs are represented in the Spirit body.


And if they are represented in the Spirit body, they are for use, but the necessities of the soul are not exactly the necessities of the physical body.


One may need the grains and fruits and animal life of the sphere to which it has been born―


The other also needs the fruits and grains and animal life of the sphere to which it belongs.


There is a difference.


One is the crude―the other is the refined―the ethereal.


One is the outside life―the other is the inside life.


The mechanic in the Spirit land deals with the thoughts of the mechanic―


The fruit grower in the Spirit land deals with the thoughts of the fruit―


The artist deals with the thoughts of the beautiful representations that you have here in mortal life.


And yet thought is present in tangible form in the Spirit land―clearly and brightly and lawfully defined.


It is not a world of imagination.


It is not a vague, unsubstantial, unreal world.


No―it is a world substantial and real.


It is a step beyond this mundane physical world.


It is the beautiful perfection of this world.


If the rose is beautiful there, it is far more beautiful here.


All forms that are represented on the earth, and these physical forms are no exception, also find a representation in the spirit land.

―Spirit William E. Channing
