Kama-Manas
(Sk.). The lower intellect; literally, the intellect of desires. (LHR I, p 473)
Kama, in connection with Manas (the astral body, in order that it be not confused with its etheric double, is often called ‘the lower astral’), or the spiritual soul of the spiritually developed man. Kama-Manas is a sort of bridge which connects the higher Manas with Kama-Rupa, thus connecting Manas and Form to make the Kana-Manas body, or human soul. (LHR I, pp 472-473)
Always bear in mind the difference between the highest Manas, or the spiritual mind, and the Kama-Manas, or the intellect. Thus, the development of the intellect (Kama-Manas) was achieved in the fourth root-race of our cycle.
(LHR I, 484)
