The subtle body, as described in the transcript, refers to the energetic or experiential aspect of our human experience, distinct from the physical or “gross” body that we perceive through the senses. The key points about the subtle body are:
02:36 – The subtle realm of our human experience includes our thoughts, images, and bodily sensations, as opposed to the external world perceived through the senses.
03:08 – The subtle body corresponds to and is connected with the physical body, but is not limited by the boundaries of the physical form.
05:47 – Our “real body” is the limitless awareness or space in which the subtle body is experienced, not confined to the physical body.
10:06 – The subtle body is liberated when we experience the seamless continuity between our human body and the universe, rather than identifying with the physical boundaries.
In summary, the subtle body refers to the energetic, experiential dimension of our being that is not limited by the physical form, but is ultimately inseparable from the boundless awareness that is our true nature.
