Alternative spelling of manusya (“man, human being”)..
According to Dr. Raman, there are three ganas or temperaments of nature: Deva (divine), Manushya (human), and Rakshasa (demon). Each of the nakshatras has one of these gana qualities. The Devas represent a spiritual and charitable nature with goodness of character. The Manushyas are more of the world and represent a mixture of positive and negative qualities. The Rakshasas suggest dominance, self-will, and the potential for violence.
The devas were the learned who were inclined to the enjoyment of worldly pleasures, manushyas were the wealthy whose wealth had made them self-centred; and asuras were possessed of base qualities and generally cruel to other beings. They stood for gods, human beings and devils, all children of Prajapati.
The Manushyas (Men) and the Manus are here equivalent to the Chaldæan Adam—this term not meaning at all the first man, as with the Jews, or one solitary individual, but Mankind collectively, as with the Chaldæans and Assyrians.
