Guest guest Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Hi, Pabari-ji, Consciousness does not occupy a space in the body. The body is simply a form arising in Consciousness. Best wishes, Dennis For this reason soul is staying between two eye brows middle of brain near hypothalamus and controlling this body through brain (physical).

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 Dear Dennisji, In every human being presence of consciousness mean presence of soul inside the body. Human being = Human+Being = Jivatma Human mean body or Jiv or corporeal medium that change in form from child to adult and Being mean soul or atma (Hindi word) there is no change in form. So this is just like car and driver and for controlling the car driver must sit inside the car. Dennis Waite <dwaite wrote:Hi, Pabari-ji, Consciousness does not occupy a space in the body.

And Atman = brahman which, as you know is everywhere and not inside any body. This 'human' that you are referring to is mithyA. In the car - driver metaphor, the driver is buddhi, not Atman. If you refer to the theatre-light metaphor in the pa~nchadashI, you get a fuller explanation. Best wishes, Dennis Waite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear spiritual, respected and very valuable brother Dennisji, I wish every moment shower of peace and happiness is coming from God Father to all. You are speaking, expressing, seeing, or doing any action with the help of body. You are giving answer to me there also taking help of body. When soul will occupy the body then only action is possible by body. Thanks Tribhuvan Dennis Waite <dwaite wrote:Hi Pabari-ji, << In every human being presence of consciousness mean presence of soul inside the body.
