according to the thickness of the veil that covers it. The somewhat enlightened souls suffer less than others, but overall, all are prone to suffer because the material energy the envelope.

Earth, water, fire, air, ether, mind, intelligence and false ego everything together form the lower energy of the Supreme Being. The true identity of being insists, however, the superior energy, which depends entirely on the operation of the material universe. The cosmic manifestation, consisting of hardware, can indeed come to life without the presence of the higher energy, embodied the living.
