“You will not learn for others to pat you on the head and feed you a biscuit. That is a child’s approach. The applause of others is nothing compared to the satisfaction of gathered wisdom.”
― Ryan Landry, Masculinity Amidst Madness

“Anna-Maya Kosha refers to the physical body of flesh, bones, blood, etc. Prana-Maya Kosha refers to the energetic body of the breath, life force (prana), and chakra energy. It sustains the body and mind. Mano-Maya Kosha refers to the mental body, or the mind, composed of thoughts, perception, concepts, ideas, feelings, emotions, and beliefs. Vijnana-Maya Kosha refers to the wisdom body, higher intellect, the intuitive sense and direct awareness of your whole being, the space from which creativity arises. Ananda-Maya Kosha refers to the bliss body of joy and a profound sense of contentment and fulfillment, experiencing full and complete awareness of the present moment, and experiencing witness consciousness and the art of stepping back with a deeper perspective. Atman refers to the sense of oneself resting beyond the bodymind’s contents (layers) accompanied by the spontaneous inner knowing and realization of the universal Presence and true Self. Atman is not a kosha.”
