According to the mystics there are five capacities of one's being which may be called five akashas.

  1. The one capacity which everybody knows and is conscious of, is what may be called the receptacle of food, which is the body.
  2. The second, which is more or less recognized, is the receptacle of sense, which is in the senses.
  3. The third capacity is called the receptacle of life, and this capacity is a world in itself where one is conscious of the finer forces of life which are working within oneself. They can convey to one a sense of the past, present, or future, for the reason that they are clear to one's vision: one sees them.
