The truth principle/Atman is behind the ego (ahamkara or "I-sense"). It is mutually exclusive to have both ego and self-realization, and upon dissolution of ego self-realization is only achievable. The Atman is not an objective experience (as the everything else) 1/9

but a subjective experience. Objective experience is perceived by the Body, mind and intellect which constitute the five sheaths (pancha kosha).
Pancha kosha (5 sheaths), are like coverings of the Atma (symbolized by Om). 2/9

The outer most is the food sheath as it is truly limited to the actual space it occupies, whilst as you go nearer to Atma it gets subtler and pervades a far greater space. The sheaths, in brief, are as follows: 3/9

1)Food sheath(annamaya-kosha)

The physical body which arises from the grains of the earth and returns to it on decomposition. This includes the 5 organs of perception(jnanendriyas), viz, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, skin and 5 organs of action (karmaendriyas), viz, speech, 4/9

hands, feet, genitals, and organs of evacuation.

2)Vital-air sheath (pranamaya-kosha)

These are the physiological functioning capacity of the physical body. These are prana (faculty of perception), apana (faculty of excretion), samana (faculty of digestion), 5/9

Sri Hanumanji is favorite of all. He is the only one in Ramayana, who escaped criticism. There isn't a single incident where he has committed any mistake and got blamed for any of his act. He is the very embodiment of wisdom, devotion and service. - Swami Tejomayananda 1/2

Sri Hanumanji has innumerable virtues, one of them is the noble virtue of serving, just like his father Wind, which is available 24x7. If one can understand & adapt his eight virtues, he will be successful in all facet of life. Another thread to elaborate those. Jai Shri Ram. 2/2

Things a Hindu can do while using English Language:
# 01.
Please stop using the term "God fearing" - Hindus never ever fear God. For us, God is everywhere and we are also part of God. God is not a separate entity to fear.
It is integral. 1/11

# 02.
Please do not use the meaningless term "RIP" when someone dies. Use "Om Shanti", "Sadhgati" or "I wish this atma attains moksha/sadhgati /Uthama lokas". Hinduism neither has the concept of "soul" nor its "resting". The terms "Atma" and "Jeeva" are, in a way, 2/11

antonyms for the word "soul".(to be understood in detail)
# 03.
Please don't use the word "Mythology" for our historic epics (Ithihaas) Ramayana and Mahabharata. Rama and Krishna are historical heroes, not just mythical characters. 3/11

# 04.
Please don't be apologetic about idol worship and say “Oh, that's just symbolic". All religions have idolatry in kinds or forms - cross, words, letters (calligraphy) or direction.
Also let's stop using the words the words 'idols', 'statues' or 'images' when we refer 4/11

to the sculptures of our Gods.
Use the terms 'Moorthi' or 'Vigraha'. If words like Karma, Yoga, Guru and Mantra can be in the mainstream, why not Moorthi or Vigraha?
# 05.
Please don't refer to Ganesh and Hanuman as "Elephant god" and "Monkey god" respectively. You can 5/11
