Rudolf Steiner tells us:
“As we have already said in a previous lecture, a Spiritual Economy exists by virtue of the fact that something of special value is preserved and carried over into the future. We have heard not only that the ego reincarnates but also that the Astral-Body and the Etheric-Body are capable of doing the same.”
“…Because the avatar essence of Christ lived in the body of Jesus of Nazareth, it became possible not only that the Etheric-Body but also that the Astral-Body and even that the ego were multiplied innumerable times; by ego, I mean the “I” as an impulse that was kindled in the Astral-Body of Jesus of Nazareth when Christ entered his threefold sheath. However, foremost in our consideration is here the fact that the etheric and Astral-Bodies could be multiplied because of the presence of the avatar being.”
“…The etheric and Astral-Bodies of Jesus of Nazareth were multiplied and the copies preserved until they could be used in the course of human evolution. However, they were not bound up with this or that nationality or tribe. But when in the course of time a human being appeared who, irrespective of nationality, was mature and suitable enough to have his own etheric or Astral-Body interwoven with a copy of the etheric or Astral-Body of Jesus of Nazareth, then those bodies could be woven into that particular person’s being. Thus, we see how it became possible in the course of time for all kinds of people to have copies of the astral or Etheric-Body of Jesus of Nazareth woven into their souls.
