MIND : ITS MYSTERIES AND CONTROL : 19.5
ATMA —THE SOURCE FOR THE MIND : 5.
Atman is the proprietor of a big firm, this mental factory.
Buddhi is the manager.
Mind is the head clerk.
The head clerk has got two functions to perform.
He gets direct orders from the manager and he has to supervise the workmen also.
Even so, the mind has got two functions.
It has connections with the Buddhi, the manager and Karma-Indriyas, the workers.
Mind is more internal than speech.
Buddhi (intellect) is more internal than the mind.
Ahankara is more internal than Buddhi.
Jiva Chaitanya (Abhasa, reflected intelligence) is more internal than Ahankara.
Atman or Kutastha is more internal than the Jiva Chaitanya.
There is nothing internal to Atman.
It is Paripurna (All-Full).
