Kamaloka

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Theosophy, Kamaloka (derived from Sanskrit) is the semi-material plane, subjective and invisible to humans, where the disembodied "personalities", the astral forms, called Kamarupa remain, until they fade out from it by the complete exhaustion of the effects of the mental impulses that created these eidolons of human and animal passions and desires. It is associated with Hades of ancient Greeks and the Amenti of the Egyptians, the land of Silent Shadows; a division of the first group of the Trailõkya. (See "Kamãdhatu")
