Hindu Medicine c8.29

c8.29

The correspondence between macrocosm and microcosm which results from this speculative monistic pattern allows for the interpretation and interrelation of both spheres; through it, man is assigned his place and attitude in relation to the extra-human forces of nature without, and to the extra-personal, subconscious spheres and forces of his own nature, as well. It serves to circumscribe man’s destiny in this life and in the next; it confronts him with the mystery of his existence in a way that makes it acceptable.
