Kama \Ka"ma\ (k[aum]"m[aum]), n. (Theosophy) Desire; animal passion; Note: supposed to create the {ka"ma ru"pa} (r[=oo]p[.a]) [Skr. r[=u]pa shape, image], a kind of simulacrum or astral likeness of a man which exists after his death in an invisible plane of being, called {ka"ma lo"ca} (l[=o]"k[.a]) [Skr. l[=o]ka space, world], until the impulses which created it are exhausted and it finally fades away.
