Humanity Mirrors the Cosmos:
Example of the non-dualistic Hindu View
Infinite - the pervasive Brahman Celestial - Trimurti, Gods and Goddesses Intermediate - ghosts, departed souls in limbo, the psychokinetic world Terrestrial - natural, physical, finite, temporal world - maya Body - biological, physical, finite, temporal senses Mind - ideas, personality and gunas Soul - unique jivas Spirit - the pervasive Atman |
