March 28, 2020 Chapter 18 What is Culture? Chapter 19 What makes a Man?
What Makes a man
Today we started the session with recapping what is culture.
In Chapter 18 we learnt about 4 types of man, the first one 'Stone man' has no plans, no passion and no attachment to life. The second one, 'Plant man' has a minimal basic emotion or feeling for others, the third one 'Animal man' is desire ridden and ego-centric, his activities are mainly guided by feelings and impulses, and finally man is best in creation having maximum capacity of emotion and feelings to embrace the world.
In Chapter 19 we learnt about what is Essence of Man, How the physical body, mind and intellect constitutes the personality of the man. Swamiji explains how human mechanism is like electric bulb heater or fridge without the electricity. They are useless. Similarly the consciousness functions through body mind intellect.
