Body
(Amānasa) Mindless, from a, not, and manasa, of the mind. This refers to the First Root Race whose mind was not yet functioning. Manas was awakened in humanity only during the Third Root Race by the MANASAPUTRAS or Sons of Mind. It is also used in describing the seven Celestial Bodhisattvas who were emanated from the DHYANI-BUDDHAS. Each DHYANI-BODHISATTVA governs one of the seven globes comprising the planetary CHAIN.
