Man is a Composite being, a Jivatma enclosed in various sheaths ([[Pancha Koshas (पञ्चकोशाः)|Pancha Koshas]], namely Annamaya, Pranamaya, Manomaya, Vijnanamaya, Anandamaya) is always in connection with one of the visible or invisible worlds and therefore with the inhabitants of these worlds. All [[Yajna (यज्ञः)|yajnas]], rites and ceremonies, [[Samskaras (संस्काराः)|samskaras]] etc ordained by the seers are intended to aid the Jivatma in reducing his koshas, to obedience, in purifying them and strengthen them against evil, to shape the man's external conditions or environment for his benefit and support. The conduct of man has reference to his surroundings as well as himself. Dharma lays down these codes of conduct of a man, as a directive to how he should act for the welfare of beings around him.
