Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Respected Devotees, As a jIvAthma situated in the body, I am a witness to the passing Time.I see day and night and seasons and years pass by! I am also a witness to the changes in my body with Time.This implies that I as a jIvAthma should be stationary with respect to the passing Time! So am I as a JIvathma beyond Time? I eagerly look forward to devotees and scholars to enlighten me. Iti SrI Acharya pAda rEnu, Suresh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2003 Report Share Posted January 16, 2003 Dear BhagavatAs, My two cents: Since there is no beginning or end for jIvA per se, jIvAtma is eternal. During each cycle of "birth" and "death", a jIvA either makes a steady progress towards liberation (mOksA) or falls behind. Given that, physical aging is indeed a passage of precious time for the jIvA as well. Whereas "time" runs out for the physical body, the clock is simply reset for the jIvA to begin yet another pursuit of "true" knowledge.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2003 Report Share Posted January 17, 2003 OM PRANAAMS AT THE LOTUS FEET OF ALL THE BHAGAVATHAS. ATMA, as one belonging to to PARAMATMA is infinite when measured in any dimension , may it be by TIME , SPACE AND CAUSE. So, Once distinguished as the SELF and not the BODY , ATMA /JIVA AS AN ETERNAL ENTITY, IS undoubtedly beyond anything conceivable , including TIME. That is what Our Acharya commands me to convey as a reply to this NOBLE QUIRY. OM NAMO NARAYANAYA. SRIMATHE RAMANUJAYA MAMAHA. AZHWAR EMBERUMAANAAR JEER DESIKAN THIRUVADIGALE SARANAM. With regards, Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan - Kombur Vankeepuram Madhavan. dt.17th Jan.,2003.
