Does one still have to assume a gross physical body after attaining the fifth body or any subsequent bodies in the next birth?

"After the fifth body, you transcend the gross physical form, embracing subtler vehicles until the realization of the seventh body, where all embodiment dissolves into the divine."
According to Osho, after attaining the fifth body one will no longer take birth in the gross physical body; subtler vehicles become available, like the so-called “deity” bodies. Beyond the sixth, even these are transcended and an Ishwar-like divine body becomes available. Only upon realization of the seventh body is all embodiment ended; before that, subtler and subtler bodies persist.
After the fifth level you don’t get a human body again; you get finer and finer bodies until the seventh, when you need no body at all.
Why this matters practically
- Clarifies the roadmap of spiritual evolution beyond human birth.
- Reduces fear of death by reframing rebirth as progressively subtler embodiment.
- Encourages focusing on inner growth rather than attachment to any body or form.
