* Basic elements:''Panchamahabhuta'' (or the Five Elements), such as ''akasha'' (space),''vayu'' (air), ''tejas'' (fire), ''apa'' (water), and ''prithvi'' (earth), and spiritual, spatial and temporal elements (soul, mind, time and space) are collectively considered basic elements (of this universe).  All the entities in the universe can be categorized into ''chetana'' (sentient/animate) and ''achetana'' (insentient/inanimate). The basis for this classification is not presence or absence of ''atma'' (soul), but the presence or absence of sense organs.  ''Guna'' (basic properties/qualities) and ''karma'' (actions):  Sense objects (''shabda'" (sound), ''sparsha''(touch), ''rupa'' (appearance), ''rasa''(taste) and ''gandha''(smell)) are five ''vaisheshika'' (specific) properties.
