A Unique Learning Program to Develop Pancha Kosha
What is Pancha Kosha?
Derived from the Sanskrit terms “PANCHA”, meaning "five" and “KOSHA” meaning "SHEATH" Pancha Kosha refers to the concept in Yoga philosophy that there are five layers of awareness through which all experience is filtered.
At the centre of these five layers is “ATMAN”, otherwise known as the true self. An individual’s unique perspective of reality is believed to come from identification with each of the five Koshas, and the path of yoga can help to heighten understanding and awareness of these sheaths.
The five sheaths or the “Pancha Kosha” are:
- Annamaya Kosha or the Food Sheath:
The outermost Kosha, referring to the physical body which needs food and nourishment to thrive. Asana practice, dietary changes and sleep quality all impact the Annamaya Kosha.
- Pranamaya Kosha or the Energy Sheath:
Pranamaya Kosha is composed of prana (life force energy) and is greatly influenced by “Pranayama” (breathwork).
- Manomaya Kosha or the Mental Sheath or Psychological Sheath:
Manomaya Kosha is where one's sense of Self develops, along with the habits of thinking that influence behaviour.
- Vijnyanamaya Kosha or the Intellectual Sheath:
This sheath is the seat of intuition, connected to inner wisdom and deeper states of consciousness. It is also responsible for inner growth and authenticity, and is impacted by all aspects of yoga.
- Anandamaya Kosha or Bliss Sheath:
Otherwise known as the bliss body, this Kosha is the closest to Atman. It transcends the logical, thinking mind, providing an experience of unity with universal consciousness. Daily meditation can help to connect practitioners with Anandamaya Kosha.
These five Koshas are interconnected as well as interdependent on each other. Conscious development of all these Koshas along with practicing Yoga (Asanas, Pranayama & Meditation as
recommended to the particular age of child) in every student by the means of specially designed activities, and programs at Fun Gurukul Preschool helps in strengthening and accelerating the process of Learning. It also helps teachers in his/her own professional and personal development.
