1 Atman All creatures in general (including plants) and human beings in particular are intrinsically made of 'Atman'. 'Atman' is essentially same as the noumenal 'Brahman'. 'MAN' in Sanskrit language denotes 'Consciousness'. The word 'At' (Aath / Anthar) indicates 'within' and 'residing in'. Which means, the spirit (Consciousness) residing 'within' each human being is 'Atman'. Consciousness also includes 'Awareness' and 'Intelligence'. Even the English word MAN, is etymologically derived from the Sanskrit root-word of 'MAN", meaning Consciousness. The word MIND also comes from this source Sanskrit word 'MAN'!
