Derived from Sanskrit terms Panch meaning five Kosa Meaning “Sheath” refers to the concept in yoga philosophy that there are five layers of awareness through which all experiences is filtered.
Concept of Panchkosha originated from Taittiriya Upanishad, A vedic era Sanskrit texts imbedded within the “Yajurveda”
It teaches us about a mechanism of body, mind & spirit called Panchkosha which means knowledge of five layers of our existence.
Vedhanta explores the human individuality into five layers/Sheath (Koshas or level). It reveals the basic elements that give the macrocosm & the microcosm framework. From the gross element that makeup physical body to the more subtle aspects of the mind & consciousness.
The five sheath of Punchkosha are:
- Annamaya kosha: The outermost Kosha refers to Physical body which needs food & nourishment to thrive. It is believed to be the most Vulnerable Kosha, since issues with the physical body can manifest has imbalances in the other layers. KASSIDO practice dietary changes & sleep quality all impact the annamaya kosha.
- Pranamaya Kosha: (The sheath of vital life force energy) Closely connected with annamaya kosha, this sheath is responsible for animating the physical body. Pranamaya kosa is composed of Prana (Life force energy) & is greatly influenced by Pranamaya (Breath work).
