Astral Plane, are not given as bribe or punishment, respectively --- but merely as a natural means of developing and unfolding the higher qualities and restraining the lower, to the end that the soul may advance on the Path.

So, once more, we see that in the words quoted at the beginning of this chapter: "Each man is his own absolute law-giver, the dispenser of glory or gloom to himself, the decreer of his own life, his reward, his punishment," on the Astral Plane.

But life on the Astral Plane does not consist entirely of heaven and hell. There are joys experienced which have naught to do with the good or evil deeds of earth-life, but which arise from the urge to express one 's own creative faculties, and to exercise the intellect with increased power --- the joys of expression and knowledge, beyond which mortal cannot hope to experience. In our next chapter we shall consider these phases of life on the Astral Plane.
