Nevertheless, in the following pages we shall confine ourselves to the theme of the death of the physical body and of the subtler bodies in the three worlds; we shall deal also with the processes which bring about the reabsorption of the human soul into the spiritual soul upon its own plane, the higher mental plane; we shall consider the reassimilation of substance and the appropriation of matter in order again to reincarnate. <\/span><span class=\"lc-search-result-current\">We shall therefore consider the three major processes to which I earlier referred; these cover three periods and lead, eventually, to other processes under the <span class=\"lc-search-result-found\">Law of Rebirth<\/span>. <\/span><span class=\"lc-search-result-next\">They are: &#8230;<\/span>\u00a0<i class=\"fa fa-quote-right\"><\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"lc-search-results-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucistrust.org\/online_books\/esoteric_healing_obooks\/part_two_the_basic_requirements_for_healing_part1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Esoteric Healing , Part Two &#8211;

the <span class=\"lc-search-result-found\">Law of Rebirth<\/span> will eventually lead them on the way to good. <\/span><span class=\"lc-search-result-next\">Those men are truly evil who seek to enforce a return to the bad old ways, who endeavour to keep their fellowmen in slavery of some kind or another, who block the expression of one or all of the Four Freedoms, who gain material riches at the expense of the exploited, or who seek to hold for themselves and for gain the produce of the earth, and thus make the cost of life&#8217;s necessities prohibitive to those not richly endowed.<\/span>\u00a0<i class=\"fa fa-quote-right\"><\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"lc-search-results-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucistrust.org\/online_books\/esoteric_healing_obooks\/part_three_the_fundamental_laws_healing\/chapter_viii_the_laws_and_rules_enumerated_and_applied_part6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Esoteric Healing , CHAPTER VIII &#8211;
