Emotional Body

My physical body is here,
You all can see and watch,
I too have its entire feel,
It is my identity and address,
However it is not all I have,
I have much more,
My physical body is finite,
I have an emotional body,
It wafts in the air around me,
Sometimes it is deep inside me,
And at others,
It is headed out to spread,
And affect all,
It has millions of states,
Joy,anger,melancholy,vacuum,
Greed, hatred, affection etc,
Form in permutations and combinations,
What happens inside of me ,
That my guts react to produce joy,
My joy probably rubs on environ,
Which also turns joyful?
Same is true for hatred etc,
Our object of emotions is mostly external,
And wherever they are,
Our emotional bodies run the full length and breadth,
It is only a few who have seen,
Such a body at close angles and understood,
Have you?
