Re:Kleshas&American Disaster/Nescience

[Guest guest]

Dear Mr. Omprem,<br><br>Thanks for a very

enlightening note on the Kleshas. Have not seen a similar view

earlier on Kleshas.<br><br>Would like to share another

view which also talks of self-realisation by

discarding the nescience around our soul.<br><br>According

to the science of Spirituality, an individual

comprises of a physical body and a subtle body. The main

component of the subtle body is the soul, which is a part

of Brahman (God Principle). <br>The soul and the

nescience around it together form the embodied soul.

<br>The nescience has nineteen components in all - the

five subtle sense organs, five subtle motor organs,

five cosmic energies, mind, subconscious mind,

intellect and ego. <br>Only the soul of a Self-realized or

Liberated person (spiritual level of 100%) is liberated

from the bondage of nescience, due to purification of

all the components of nescience. Due to this, such a

person’s soul has merged with God, in life as well as

after renouncing the physical body. <br>Just as a drop

of oily water has to lose all the oil impurities to

completely merge with pure water, an individual has to

liberate himself from the bondage of nescience, before his

soul can merge with the God Principle. Most people

today (average spiritual level is 20%) are nowhere near

the spiritual level of Liberation, and hence, their

embodied souls do not merge with God after death.

<br>Spiritual progress or the removal of nescience is only

possible through intense spiritual practice, and this

process continues over many births. <br>Thus, only the

soul of the seeker at 100% spiritual level will merge

with the God principle after His death.<br><br>Source
