What are Human Beings made of? (Body, Mind, Intellect, Soul)
The Universe and us
Most of us are aware of our physical body, but spiritual science explains that human consciousness extends well beyond the visible form. In addition to the gross body, we also possess subtle bodies that influence our thoughts, emotions, desires, reasoning ability, intellect and sense of individuality. While modern science largely studies the mind and intellect through a physical lens, spiritual science offers a deeper and more holistic understanding of our true nature and consciousness.

Sattva Raja Tama – Basic Components of Creation
The Universe and us
The three subtle basic components (trigunas) — Sattva, Raja and Tama — form the very fabric of Creation. Though unknown to modern science, they exist in and influence all living and non-living, visible and invisible aspects of the Universe. The subtle vibrations emitted by anything depend on its predominant component, which in turn affects its nature and behaviour. Through spiritual practice, the proportion of these components within a person can gradually be transformed, leading to a lasting positive transformation in oneʼs personality and spiritual state
