Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In Hindu thought, Atman is the true Self of each individual, which is at one with the Divine, Brahman, the Absolute. C. G. Jung acknowledges indebtedness to this concept in Aion where he refers to the “Atmic self.” The Hindu concept differs from Jung, however, in that the Atman is one and the same in every person.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Upanishad describes three types of Self (atman): the Bahya-atma or external self (body), the Antar-atma or inner self (individual soul) and the Param-atma or highest self (the Brahman, Purusha).
