Question: If the soul of the chair is ready to evolve, does it just leave the chair?
Sri Chinmoy: It is like going from one rung of a ladder to the next. If it has passed the examination, then it goes to the next class. Then another soul enters the chair.
From:Sri Chinmoy,Miracles, emanations and dreams, Agni Press, 1977
