Mahasamatman is a term derived from Sanskrit, meaning "the great self" or "the supreme being." It is often associated with the concept of a universal soul or consciousness that transcends individual existence. In various spiritual traditions, Mahasamatman represents the ultimate reality or the source of all creation, embodying the essence of life and existence. In Hindu philosophy, Mahasamatman is sometimes linked to Brahman, the ultimate reality that is both immanent and transcendent. This concept emphasizes the interconnectedness of all beings and the idea that individual souls, or Atman, are manifestations of this greater self. Understanding Mahasamatman encourages a sense of unity and oneness with the universe.
