Though we can hardly undertake to define personality, we may attempt to narrate our understanding of the known factors which go to make up the ensemble of material, mental, and spiritual energies whose interassociation constitutes the mechanism wherein and whereon and wherewith the Universal Father causes his bestowed personality to function.

What that Field is and of what nature, how modified, and whence it is, and what He is and what His powers, hear that now briefly from Me. Rishis have sung in manifold ways, in many various chants, and in decisive Brahma-sûtra verses full of reasonings. The great Elements, Individuality, Reason, and also the unmanifested, the ten senses and the one, and the five pastures of the senses;
Earth, water, fire, air, ether, Mind, and Reason also and Egoism—these are the eightfold division of My nature. This the inferior. Know My other nature, the higher, the life-element, O mighty-armed, by which the universe is upheld. Know this to be the womb of all beings. I am the source of the forthgoing of the whole universe and likewise the place of its dissolving.
These five causes, O mighty-armed, learn of Me as declared in the Sâñkhya system for the accomplishment of all actions: The body, the actor, the various organs, the diverse kinds of energies, and the presiding deities also, the fifth. Whatever action a man performeth by his body, speech and mind, whether right or the reverse, these five are the cause thereof.
