Atman's View On Christianity

In Hinduism, Atman is the sprits of all individuals. It is the hidden in everywhere. Every object and every living life is made of Atman. It means immortal. Atman is in the deep side of every individual. We normally cannot perceive it because we are bound by the outer world, by our experiences and by what we have seen and touched.
