Musings on Theosophy

Part 2 of the Sevenfold Constitution of Man, delves further into each plane of our human nature. Understanding the physical brain's limited role opens insights into our existence, which lies far beyond the tangible substance that science claims as the sole reality. Here we become acquainted with the upper and lower forms of Manas, our mind's earthly wants and desires versus our intuition, as the better informer. With Manas and Buddhi clarified, the difference between knowledge and wisdom becomes apparent, as does its source, Atman. Without the lens of dogmatic religion, how the individual man is identical to the entire cosmology, is brilliantly clarified.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/musingsontheosophy/donations

Though we commonly perceive ourselves as having a body, mind and spirit, we're rarely offered an explanation of the latter two or the subdivisions of them, which actually represent seven aspects of ourselves. Here in our third episode of the Musings on Theosophy podcast, we come to have an intimate understanding of each of these levels of existence and how they work in tandem to support the whole being. Just as the human body has infinitesimal systems that work simultaneously with each other, whether we are aware of them or not, the more subtle parts of the human being have equal complexity and brilliance. The continuing existence of aspects of ourselves after the body is shed, clarifies misconceptions commonly held, broadening our understanding of the journey of the human race.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/musingsontheosophy/donations
