After many birth Soul gets the formation of the human body but
before that it was in the shape of Jada means a body without any natural
force. This shape in Upanishad is explained as Anna. Anna is the symbolical meaning of which have
a formation but no life in it. This Jada
formation of the Soul is called as Anna Kosha and
this state of Soul is known as Annamoya Purusha means
Physical Self. Gradually in this state all types of animal came into being
and then the Soul got a cover with life and then the Soul forms in the shape
of Pranamoya Kosha and
then it is known as Pranamoya Purusha
or Vital Self or Self of Life. In the process of nature in every creature,
mind works and a special quality of thought power was formed in the human
body. Then that Soul become Manomaya Kosha Or the Soul is called as Manomaya Purusha means Mental Self or Self of Mind. This is the
difference between animals with a social animal. Every plant and animal is
having life but they dont have a special thought power and judging power
like human. For the reason, human has won over the animal for their mental
power and has come up in every respect for their worldly needs including
education. Self- effort of the man has achieved a higher stage of
spirituality and also in every respect of material world. As per Upanishad, Taryopi
hi jivanti mrugapakshinha,
sa jivati manyoyasha manen hi jivati means trees are having life and animals are also
having life but a Soul which leaves on thought power is known as self of
mind. Slowly it develops to Vigyanamoya Kosha and then to the Annadamoya
Kosha This soul of Vigyanamoya
Kosha is known as Vigyanamoya
Purusha or Self of Truth. By knowledge or Satyam Ruta means real
knowledge of Truth, the soul become as Anandamoya Purusha or Self of Bliss. At this stage of jivatma, he remains connected with Ultimate. As per Geetas chapter six and sloka
no 31, Sa yogi moyi vartate He remains in me means his body, mind and
intellect is always attached in me, his will is my will, his work turns for
my work. He is attached with me and detached. His knowledge is for me; his
all deeds are my deeds; he remains with me being an ascetic but without any
attachment of worldly things even though he is in his physical body. Due to realization of Annadaswarup, the
Soul remains always in a condition of Ananda or
Joy. As per Tatyaria Upanishad, jivatma slowly and slowly comes up from all above stages
or the dark stages along with the development of body, mind and intellect. Kevalanu Bhavananda Swarupa Parameswar 1st chapters 6 th sloka.of Tatyaria Upanishad.
Means remains always with the bliss of Eternity or in Ananda
or peace. Then mental condition becomes a state or a condition [sthiti], which is above peace. Our main barrier of realization of Eternity is,
we fail to understand of love in real sense for the Infinite as we try to
acquire the knowledge from different books. The day, when a jivatma gets the taste of Ultimate then all worldly
education becomes as information only. Actually we need the taste for which a
pain, pang, inquisitiveness or we can say a craving heart can have the real
taste of Almighty but not by the body, mind and intellect. Through the soul
or a subtle soul gets merged easily with a subtler soul that is with the
Eternal soul.
Gradually,
Mrinmaya Rupa becomes as Chinmaya Rupa or Chidananda Rupa. In Chitta when Chetana comes with love for the Eternity then we achieve Chaitanyata or the real realization of bliss. |
