According to '''Sarira Traya''', the '''Doctrine of the Three bodies''' in [[Hinduism]], the human being is composed of three '''sariras''' or "bodies" emanating from Brahman by avidya, "ignorance" or "nescience". They are often equated with the five [[kosha]]s (sheaths), which cover the [[Ātman (Hinduism)|atman]]. The ''Three Bodies Doctrine'' is an essential doctrine in Indian philosophy and religion, especially [[Yoga]], [[Advaita Vedanta]] and [[Tantra]].

The ''Sthula sarira''’s main features are ''Sambhava'' (birth), ''Jara'' (old age or ageing) and ''Maranam'' (death), and the "Waking State". The ''Sthula sarira'' is the [[Anatman (Hinduism)|anatman]].
