functioning of the bodily organs. It deciphers the code of intangible psychic expression (adhyavasāya) into a form which is tangible and crude enough to control and function through such gross elements as flesh and bone. Of course, leśyā derives much assistance from endocrine system in its function of intercommunication.
Leśyā functions in both directions centripetally, i.e. from periphery towards centre, as well as centrifugally i.e. from centre to periphery. Contaminating material is continuously attracted and collected from the external environment by three-fold activities of the gross or physical body viz., thought, speech and muscular action. This must be delivered to the sphere of kaşāya at the centre in an acceptable subtle form. Similary, whatever is radiated outwards from the subtle karma śarīra at the center is delivered to the gross physical body by leśyā. Let us apply the analogy of a complex industrial organisation to leśyā. The contaminating matter collected from the external environment is the raw material received by leśyā for delivering to karma sarira. The raw material is initially very crude and must be processed first to make it much more subtle; then coded into signals which are acceptable to the karmu-sarīra. It must be remembered that bodily activities might be either good or evil, and accordingly, the lesya thai would process the incoming matter would be benevolent or malevolent. The processed raw material will undergo the manufacturing process by the karnia-sarīra and will re-emerge in due course as a finished product i.e. adhyavasāya when the fruition occurs. Once again the department of leśyā becomes active, this time to receive goods from the centre and to deliver them outside to the domain of physical self. The action plan of leśyā starts with the receipt of bulk-supply of adliyavasca from the central authority. After proper sorting process, these are adequately packed and tien despatched to the distributing organisation headed by the neuro-endocrine system. Lastly, entire production is distributed to the selling outcts in
