As understanding propels us to the center of truth, we gain
unfathomable momentum easily overcoming the speed of light. We
quickly penetrate the etheric sheath bursting with a big bang of
uniform silent stillness; awakening to a quiet world of endless
horizons stretching into the formless- purity of form. Our bare feet
trod the cool grass of a mystical garden that the Hebrew calls Eden,
where Adam was formed in God’s image from moistened dust of
this plane, archetype clay of simple shapes bored by Divine Ideas.
Atman is the birth place of the atma, our own identical individualities.
Set apart by experience, we know one another by way of empathy and
we are seen as shining stars sparkling about in a cosmic sea of
unconditional freedom. Atman is the birthplace of Iness coined the
‘Atma†by ancient Indian Sage’s which is synonymous with the soul
body of Hebrew, Christian and Islamic faiths. When we talk about the
Sanskrit term, atma, we are talking about the same soul body
referred to by the majority of religious beliefs.
Just as creatures of the deep, atmas take on a form or body that is
best suited for a particular plane of operation. The individual soul is
marked only by the experience acquired under conditional restraints
of the lower planes, the first of which is termed the etheric plane. The
conditional properties of the etheric plane are the frameworks
necessary to fence in the painful playground of “the school of hard
knocksâ€. The Atma takes on an etheric “jiv-Atma†body like a set of
clothes or costume. The jivatma is the mask of soul, the first
manifestation of the archetype Atman properties by way of negation,
limitation or undefined schema- all things that come to be already
exist
