Kosha : The Body Seen From a Yogic Point of View
The human body is a pretty mysterious place and everything that makes us humans. In biological terms, a human body can be defined as a physical substance composed of all the living and extra-cellular materials that are then organized into tissues, organs, and systems. This biological and empirical view of the body described by medicine and our modern time has also greatly influenced the yogic view of the body.
In the practice of Yoga, we take care of our physical body, but soon we realize that the energies involved take us beyond what is seen as purely physical. As much as it is obvious to consider our physical body as real, as much as we can feel the existence of other bodies or layers (Kosha) by focusing our attention on their inherent quality.
Again one can find various representations in oriental philosophies that describe mental and physical functioning. They are often very elaborate, and one will discover all the work of introspection that has been done for centuries.
Meditation, Yoga, and Prânayama (breathing) practice help to explore and balance the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies. To heal the fragility of one, adapted practice can be chosen to reinforce it.
In the past, the yogi perceived his body as a network of psycho-physical centers such as chakras, connected by the channels of circulation of the different breaths (Vayu) and energetic vital force (kundalini) through the Nadis. Today in some mainstream modern yogas, the body is described as having five seeds called “Koshas”. The five kosha move from the grossest plane, the seed made of food, to the most subtle plane of the body, such as bliss or ananda kosha.
Read on to learn about the Koshas and the human body as seen from a yogic point of view!
