Atman


Atman means eternal self or soul. The atman means the real self not the ego. Some Hindus refer to it as the soul or spirit, it lies underneath ones existence. There are many different views on atman in Hinduism some believe that it is a servant of god, others identify atman as god. Many define the atman as a spiritual self rather than material that is why some Hindus get rid of all material possessions.
