__NOTOC__
=What is the Psychic Being?=
It is the soul in evolution.
The psychic being is a divine nucleus in each human being which stands behind mind, life and body but of which we are only dimly aware.
It is a portion of the Divine that persists after death and permanent from life to life, taking the experience of life through its outer instruments. As this experience grows it manifests a developing psychic personality which insisting always on the good, true and beautiful, finally becomes ready and strong enough to turn the nature towards the Divine.

The psychic being is formed progressively around this divine centre, the soul, in the course of its innumerable lives in the terrestrial evolution, until the time comes when the psychic being, fully formed and wholly awakened, becomes the conscious sheath of the soul around which it is formed.
And thus identified with the Divine, it becomes His perfect instrument in the world.

The psychic being is that which persists after death, because it is your eternal self; it is this that carries the consciousness forward from life to life.

The psychic being is in the heart centre in the middle of the chest (not in the physical heart, for all the centres are in the middle of the body), but it is deep behind.

=Why is the Psychic Being Important?=
==For Transforming Parts of the Being==
If the psychic is awake and in front, it becomes easy to remain conscious of the things that have to be changed in the external nature and it is comparatively easy too to change them. But if the psychic gets veiled and retires into the background, the outer nature left to itself finds it difficult to remain conscious of its own wrong movements and even with great effort cannot succeed in getting rid of them…. the psychic active and awake the right attitude comes naturally and whatever difficulty there was soon diminishes or even disappears.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/30/the-psychic-and-spiritual-realisations#p14</ref>
If the psychic and mental parts in us are strong, the vital comes under mastery and direction to an extent hardly possible to the surface mentality; even the body and the physical energies can be taken up by the inner mind and will and turned into a more plastic instrumentation of the soul, the psychic being. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/knowledge-by-identity-and-separative-knowledge#p1</ref>
=How to Connect to the Psychic Being?=
Above the head: to bring peace, silence, liberation from the body sense, the identification with mind and life, facilitate Divine descent and open the way for the lower (mental-vital-physical) consciousness to rise up and meet the higher Consciousness.
Between the eyebrows: to liberate the inner mind and vision, to awaken Yogic consciousness.Heart centre: opened by aspiration, love, bhakti, surrender.

The psychic being at its origin is only a spark of the divine consciousness and it is through successive lives that it builds up a conscious individuality.
