'''Purusha''' (devanāgarī: पुरुष) is a [[Sanskrit]] word that means "man" or "Cosmic man". In the [[Hinduism|Hindu]] school [[Samkhya]] Purusha is pure consciousness. It is thought to be our true identity as opposed to [[Prakrti]], or the material realm. In Vedic schools Purusha is seen as the "Self" which pervades the universe. The Vedic divinities are interpretations of the many facets of Purusha.
