In the \u2018physical\u2019 it creates \u2018form\u2019. Yes, through \u2018form\u2019, the spirit shows itself in substance. On the soul level it is the \u2018inner life\u2019, the soul that experiences itself. I find his entry in the last field, that which the I creates in the spiritual, puzzling.
