This study explains personality by combining Western psychology and Indian yogic philosophy. It shows that personality is not just traits or behavior but a growth of awareness and inner balance through body, mind, and consciousness: Pañca-Kośa, Triguṇa, and Antaḥkaraṇa. Yoga is presented as a practical path for personality development and inner transformation.
