various individuals, according to their psychic type, because of the qualitative
differences in their spiritual structure.

For this reason, different people require different amounts of time to return to
their initial state, according to their psychic category. But a subject will be unable to
restore the baseline if he repeats the same actions or deeds too often to allow for
recuperation time. In some cases this may cause a permanent deformation of the
spirit's original structure and a new qualitative spiritual structure for that
individual. This can occur even with a single action if accompanied by strong
enough emotions. Emotional states with amplitude within the limits of stability for
the astral body are still reversible.

Irreversible results correspond to emotional states that transform the astral
body beyond the stability limit. This renders the astral body unstable, causing it to
eject primary matters G and F, triggering its qualitative transformation. Excessive

loss of F matter leads to its disappearance from the astral body's structure,
transforming it into a lower astral body (composed of G matter only). The result is
reverse evolution.

The astral body may be likened to a rubber band with sufficient elasticity to
return to its original state after being stretched. But in time its elastic properties will
decrease and its final shape will be less and less like the original. And, if stretched

too far — it will simply tear...
Now, to return to the emotions... We need to see what kinds of emotionally
laden deeds and actions are powerful enough to cause irreversible changes in the

qualitative structure of the astral body.
Let us recall that each emotion has its own particular self-dimensionality
level in the astral plane: the lower the level, the more primitive the emotion. The
emotional state of a predator or killer is one of the most primitive in nature. For
animal predators these emotions are a necessary condition of their existence without
which they would become extinct. They enable the hunters to maximally concentrate
their potential on the level of the etheric body, which generates tremendous physical
strength and rapid reaction time at the moment of attack.

Practically all predators go hunting when they are hungry and kill only to satisfy
this hunger, thereby preserving their life and that of their offspring. Here there is no
violation of natural law. Predator animals occupy a specific place on the evolutionary
scale and possess only a lower astral body. For this reason lowered dimensionality

levels accompanying their emotional state do not initiate an irreversible process for
them.

Humans, because of their position on the evolutionary scale, are more
susceptible to the effects of any predatory emotions they experience. Even when a
human kills an animal for food,

his astral body's dimensionality level decreases by a certain amount, creating a
problem for him in terms of his continuing evolutionary development. When humans
kill their own kind, the emotional load reaches a critical level, rendering the astral
body unstable. This results in a discharge of primary matters and a sharp drop in the
astral body's dimensionality level.
