TERMINAL QUESTIONS

1. What is spirituality? Explain it.

Ans: The definition of Spirituality as per oxford dictionary is ‘the quality of being connected with the human spirit or soul as opposed to material and physical things’. One cannot equate spirituality with self-realization, or Moksha (salvation). The moment one negates the negativity and associates with positivity one becomes spiritual. The moment you stop perceiving yourself as an individual unit and begin to experience yourself as a part of greater system, you become more spiritual. Spirituality is connecting with the positive and the creative aspect of life, not self-realization, but becoming good, doing good, softening the sentiments, feelings and thoughts. Spirituality is the antidote to materialism.

(ii) Manomaya Kosha – Mental body.

(iii) Pranamaya Kosha – Pranic body (the dimension of energy).

(iv) Vijnanamaya Kosha – Intuitive body.

(v) Anandmaya Kosha – The body of bliss.

3. Explain how eight stages of Ashtang yog related to Panch Kosha?
