She explains how each of these principles contributes to the overall makeup of a human being and how they interact with each other.Besant also explores the idea of evolution and how the seven principles of man evolve over time. She discusses the role of karma and how it affects the evolution of the soul, as well as the concept of spiritual enlightenment and how it can be achieved through understanding and mastering the seven principles.Overall, The Seven Principles of Man is a comprehensive guide to understanding the spiritual nature of human beings and the principles that govern our existence.
