Five sheaths to the human existence
There
are five sheaths to the human existence: the environment is our first
body, the physical body is our second body, prana or energy is the third
body (the Chinese terminology is chi; when the prana or energy is high,
there is enthusiasm, creativity. When the energy goes down, that is
when depression, suicidal tendency and the tendency to harm nature and
oneself arises.) So, developing this body of prana is essential. The
fourth sheath is the mind, which plays an important role. The fifth is
the consciousness, which plays an important role, both, in protecting
the ecology and nurturing human kind. To sum it all, I would say
pollution-free environment, disease-free body, confusion-free mind,
inhibition-free intellect, trauma-free memory, and sorrow-free soul is
the birth right of every individual. || Jai Guru Dev ||
