About this listen
When we turn our attention to the subject of elemental Intelligences or Nature-Spirits, we are confronted by this immediate difficulty, that we are led at the very beginning beyond and behind the world which we know through the channels of the senses. Sense perception does not help us at all in our study of that mysterious realm of life which constitutes the invisible background of physical manifestation. Madame Blavatsky warned us long ago that to describe Nature-Spirits or Elementals as having definite and corporeal form was likely to lead into great error. She said that those mysterious beings named Salamanders, Sylphs, Undines and Gnomes by Varacelsus and other Western Occultists; Bliutas, Devas, Ghandharvas by Eastern wisdom; Daemons by the Alexandrian School, and so on, were possessed of neither form nor consciousness at all as we understand those terms, and that to imagine otherwise would lead into a psychic materialism far more obstructive to real occult progress than the theories of modern scientific thought which would deny the existence of any such spirits.
