Adler number: alpha,4411

Vetting Status: high
Translation:
So Isidore used to say that he had heard this also from him,[1] that the soul has a kind of luminous so-called vehicle, star-like and eternal. And indeed for some this astral body is shut up inside the head, but for others inside the right shoulder; [this is something] which nobody else appears to have reported.
