THE SELF MADE OF ANANDA IN THE TAITTIRIYA UPANISHAD (to be added) THE ANANDAMAYA KOSHA IN TRADITIONAL ADVAITA VEDANTA In Advaita Vedanta the Anandamaya kosha is the innermost of the five Kosha s or "sheaths" that veil the Atman or Supreme Self. Unlike the Next Three More Outer Koshas , it constitutes the ''karana sharira'' or Causal Body . It is associated with the state of dreamless sleep and Samadhi . THE ANANDAMAYA KOSHA ACCORDING TO SUBBA ROW The Indian Theosophist T. Subba Row correlated the five koshas with Blavatsky 's Septenary Principle . The Anandamaya-kosa [sheath of bliss or ''Karanopadhi'' - causal body) is here associated with the Spiritual Soul or Buddhi principle (the sixth of the seven principles) THE ANANDAMAYA KOSHA ACCORDING TO SIVAYA SUBRAMUNIYASWAMI In the teachings of itself, a body of light. AS well as being the Causal body and the repository of karma, it is also the ''Karana chitta'', the "causal mind" or superconscious mind, of which Parashakti (or Satchidananda) is the substratum. This Anandamaya kosha evolves through all incarnations until finally merging in the Primal Soul, '' Parameshvara ''. It then becomes ''Sivamayakosha'', the body of Siva . THE SELF MADE OF DELIGHT ACCORDING TO SRI AUROBINDO Unlike other Vedantic philosophers, Sri Aurobindo does not consider the five selves as koshas, "sheaths", but instead sees them as the Evolutionary prindciples of the Inner or True Divine Self at each Plane Of Existence . The Anandamaya Self is thus the individualised Divine Self that will emerge with thd actualisation of the Plane of Ananda , following and even surpassing the Supramental stage of evolution.
