The Triple Aspects of the Divine Presence

0:00 In order to carry out the complex creation, the Supreme Divine Consciousness has distributed the awareness through a series of steps. The first step is the development of the Jivatman, the Divine presence that does not involve itself directly in the individual beings of the manifestation, but acts as the first differentiation of the unity into the multiplicity. The second step is the transmission of a portion of the divine awareness into each being, which we call the soul. The soul is of the same nature as the Jeevatman, but now introduced into each creature. The soul does not itself undergo changes but develops the psychic being, which maintains the divine nature but undergoes development, growth and maturation as it gathers the essence of experience across innumerable lives, Srioro Bindo observes quote the Jeevatman spark.

1:02 Soul and psychic being are three different forms of the same reality and they must not be mixed up together as that confuses the clearness of the inner experience. The Jeevatman or spirit as it is usually called in English, is self existent above the manifested or instrumental being. It is superior to birth and death, always the same, the individual self or Atman. It is the eternal true being of the individual. End Quote. Reference. Srioro Bindu and the Mother.
