EXTERNAL WORLD

THE EXTERNAL WORLD CONSISTS OF

1.SHABDA THE SOUND

2.SPARSHA THE TOUCH

3.ROOPA THE COLOR AND THE FORM

4.RASA THE TASTE

5.GANDHA THE SMELL


THERE IS NO OTHER EXTERNAL WORLD EXCEPT THESE .
THE WORLD OF EXPERIENCE BEGINS WITH THE TRANSACTION OF THE WORLD.
FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL THE WORLD BEGINS WHERE THE SKIN ENVELOP ENDS.
TO TRANSACT WITH THE WORLD THE INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE AVAILABLE FOR A HUMAN BEING IS THE EARS,THE SKIN ENVELOP,THE EYES, THE TONGUE AND THE NOSE.
THE RAAGA AND THE DVESHA (LIKES AND THE DISLIKES) OF AN INDIVIDUAL WHILE TRANSACTING WITH THE WORLD BRINGS IN THE EXPERIENCE OF SUKHA AND DUKKA.
