Description

The journey from the gross body to the real ‘I’ is essentially what the spiritual path is all about. The quest culminates with the unveiling of the true Self which is shrouded by the Panchkosha. It entails then that a seeker first needs to comprehend the different sheaths of Panchkosha in their depth to make any meaningful progress on this path. But it is rare to find a comprehensive elucidation on this pure Vedantic knowledge, which is not surprising given its intricate complexity. Thus it is indeed a welcome relief to a sincere seeker to lay his hands upon this most exclusive set of 2 DVDs which is a compilation of live talks given by the revered master Anandmurti Gurumaa. Herein the master elaborates in great detail about the five sheaths that cover the true Self: Annamaya kosha, Pranamaya kosha, Manomaya kosha, Vigyanamaya kosha and Anandamaya kosha - together termed as the Panchkosha. How the five elements (earth, water, air, fire, ether) come together to form the Annamaya kosha i.e. the gross body; how the Pranamaya kosha is formed by the major five pranas and their subtypes; a detailed analysis of the Manomaya kosha with an in-depth description of its constituents viz. thoughts, emotions, sensations, memory etc; what does impure intellect and pure intellect entail – all is explained in great detail. Finally the talk concludes with a profound commentary on the innermost sheath, the Anandamaya kosha.
