In other posts here I have seen references to the Causal Body. This is a term I haven't seen in some 50 years, so I'm rather hazy as to it meaning. Evidently Google isn't quite sure what it is either. So I ventured on only to see that my rusty Sankrit has collapsed under the weight of terms that have different meanings to different writers. Do we have a consensus here?
I have always thought Freemasonry was primarily a western tradition. Do the adepts of the west have a system of terms equal to that found in the east? Qabalah or Alchemy seems to have approached the problem, but I have never seen a table of correspondences. I've lost my copy of Liber 777 and cannot look it up there.
I read that Lorr was going to write on the Causal Body. It can't come too soon for me!

The Causal Body is the vehicle for the solar angel (holy guardian angel), that is, the Causal Body is the outer form for the Soul.
The human with upright and moral life progressively accumulates higher light substance that is built into the Causal Body thereby allowing progressively greater manifestation of the solar angel.
