Mumukshuppadi - 055

[Guest guest]

Sri:

Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

 

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's

Mumukshuppadi

 

Sutra:

55. sEshathvamE AthmAvukku SvarUpam.

 

Meaning:

The sEshatvam described is not a limited quality of the soul;

instead it is it's complete nature.

 

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:

If the sEshathvam arose out of seeing His kalyANa guNas, then

is it not likely that it is only a characteristic of the soul

rising out of a special situation?

 

Sri Pillai Lokacharya says that that is not true and that the

sEshatvam is actually the complete nature of the soul. As an

example it was shown that in this world people tend to enjoy

enslavement due to the guNas seen with their lord and

therefore it was told that kalyANa guNas are present with

Sriman Narayana. But irrespective of that example, all

Sastras clearly show that sEshatvam is the nature of the soul.
