The Trilokî also appeared, Svar from the head, Bhuvar from the navel and
Bhûr from the feet. With these Lokas appeared the Devas and other
beings, who are the transformations of the Gunas. From the predominance
of Satva, the Devas went to Svar Loka. Men and the lower Kingdoms
entered Bhûr Loka from the predominance of Rajas in them. By the
predominance of Tamas, the different classes of Bhûtas remained in
Bhuvar Loka. The Brâhmana appeared from the mouth, the Kshatriya from
the hands, the Vaisya from the thighs and the Sûdra from the feet.
THOUGHTS ON THE ABOVE
We have considered the manifested Logos in the Universe. We shall now
consider His manifestation in Man, the microcosm. The teachings are all
collected from the Upanishads.
