Atman



The word “Atman” (pronounced in Sanskrit like “Atma”) is interpreted as the “Main Essence” of man, as his Highest Self. “A” in this word is a negative particle. “Tma” means “darkness”. The word “tamas” — “ignorance”, “spiritual darkness” — has the same root. Therefore “A-tma” or “Atman” means “opposite to darkness”, “shining”.
In essence, Atman is the best, The Divine part of everyone’s multidimensional organism.
Atman is the Brahmanic Fire, when we become this Fire, and the Atmic energy kundalini — precious content of the “money-box”, where the best of us, which has been accumulated in all previous incarnations, is stored.
