What is Personality
According to The Cambridge International Dictionary of English,' your Personality is the type of person you are, which is shown by the way you behave,feel and think.'
Personality, according to the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English,is the ' whole nature or character of a person.'
Personality refers to individual differences in characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving. The study of personality focuses on two broad areas: One is
understanding individual differences in particular personality characteristics, such as sociability or irritability. The other is understanding how the various parts of a person come together as a whole.
The divine core of our personality is covered, as it were, by five dimensions:
• Physical dimension consisting of our body and senses
• Energy dimension which performs digestion of food, circulation of blood, respiration and other activities in the body.
• Mental dimension characterized by the activities of mind like- thinking, feeling etc.
• Intellectual dimension characterized by the determinative faculty in a person. This is also the seat of discrimination and will power.
• Blissful dimension experienced as bliss during deep sleep.
Each succeeding dimension is subtler than the preceding one and pervades it.
