About Three Bodies Doctrine

The Three Bodies Doctrine is an ancient concept in Hinduism that explains the nature of the universe and the interconnectedness of all things.

  • It states that the universe is composed of three bodies: the individual self (jiva), the universal self (Brahman), and the divine (Shiva).
  • The individual self is bound by karma and desires, while the universal self is eternal and unchanging.
  • The divine is the ultimate reality that pervades all existence.

The Three Bodies Doctrine is central to the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, which emphasizes the non-dual nature of reality.
