Seuse speaks of the sixth body:
"It is beneficial for all people, who are destined to be led back to the primordial One, to know the origin of themselves and of all things. For through this, the ultimate goal of such people is also determined. Therefore, it must be understood that all who have ever spoken of the truth are in agreement on this point: that there is an absolute beginning, the most simple something, which nothing precedes." (The Book of Eternal Wisdom / German Mysticism Series 6 Heinrich Seuse / Sobunsha, p. 175)
Seuse refers to the sixth body as the primordial One, the origin of oneself and all things, and the absolute beginning, the most simple something, thus using three different expressions. This is the side of Being. Furthermore, he states that the primordial One has no end, is immeasurable, and cannot be known by reason. He also excludes expression through words.
Moreover, he acknowledges that this One is the beginning and end of the submergence in God that occurs in parallel with self-abandonment.
And furthermore, he states that beyond it there is nothing, confirming that there is nothing. This is the seventh body Nirvana.
