Description
About The Book: The Self and its Sheaths by Annie Besant explores the concept of the true Self (Atman) and its various coverings, or "sheaths" (koshas), which obscure its pure nature. According to Besant, these sheaths represent different layers of human existence: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Each sheath corresponds to a different aspect of human experience, with the outermost layers tied to the material world, while the innermost reveal the divine Self. Besant emphasizes that spiritual evolution involves transcending these sheaths to realize one's true, eternal nature, guiding individuals toward self-awareness and enlightenment.
