Atmabodha,-The UPADHIS or Conditioners, (S.-1, Ch.-4, V.-12)

पंचीकृतमहाभूतसंभवं कर्मसंचितम् । शरीरं सुखदुःखानां भोगायतनमुच्यते ॥ १२॥

paṃcīkṛtamahābhūtasaṃbhavaṃ karmasaṃcitam । śarīraṃ sukhaduḥkhānāṃ bhogāyatanamucyate ॥ 12॥





Due to a particular formulation of five elements of Nature (Pancha Bhootas) which are Earth, Fire, Sky, Water and Air, the human body is made. This is called Sthoola Sareera (gross body) the medium through which the Atma experiences and pleasure and pain. This is given by Paramatma on the basis of Karma done by it in its previous births. The process of such formulation of the five elements is called Panchikarana where one half of each of the five elements mixes with one of the other four. Modern science concepts are worked in a different way but basically it is the nature's five elements that make human body. Science says it is made up of cells. A cell is made of organic matter which is called by our ancient Jnanis as earth. Science agrees that Air and Water are there in the body. The Sky is actually anything empty. There is a lot of empty space in our body which is Sky. There is fire in in our body though we cannot see it. Modern Science calls it acidic reactions which are vital for digestion. So the conclusion that human body is made up of just organic matter is only half the story. Jnanis consider that the main part of the formation of the human body has to do with sanchita karma i.e., the vast store of past actions the fruits of which have not been reaped.
