ATMABODHA | VERSE 13 | SRI ADI SANKARACARYA



1. The subtle body consisting of the five airs , the mind , intellect , the ten senses and made up of subtle elements is also meant for enjoyment ( as in dreams ) .

2. The subtle body , the instrument of the Soul’s experience , consists of the five pranas , the ten organs , the manas , and the buddhi — all formed from the rudimentary elements before their sub-divisions and combination with one another .

3. The five Pranas , the ten organs and the Manas and the Buddhi , formed from the rudimentary elements ( Tanmatras ) before their " five-fold division and mutual combination with one another " ( Pancheekarana ) and this is the subtle body , the instruments-of-experience ( of the individual ) .
