SHIP OF MANU
A symbol of the nascent causalbody :--
"Manu, however, was to be preserved by the help of the Fish, who
commanded him to build a ship and go on board with the seven Rishes,
and with the seeds of all existing things." - Mahā-Bhārata, Deluge
story.
The mind (Manu) is to be saved for development through the power of
the Self (Fish); and a causal-sheath is to be builded on the mental
plane, in which the mind is to take refuge. The Rishes" signify the
seven root-races of humanity; and the "seeds are the potencies of
all things, brought over from previous manvantaras.
