Return to History 8 India Vocabulary

Atman is a Hindu term meaning "the real self, the external life that which underlies the human form". The Atman is a key for the understanding of the belief that we are spiritual beings having a physical experience. This means that our core existence is as a immortal being that hides inside of all people. We are all ignorant to are true selves as our inner being watches us through all of are experiences.
