Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 dEhAvasAnE mOksham ca – mOksha will be attained immediately after the soul leaves the body · This assertion removes any doubts that a person may have regarding the timing of when he will get salvation. In the 3rd assertion, it is conveyed that complete faith in the Lord (as the goal and the means to the goal) would lead to salvation. In the 4th assertion, we are assured not to worry about the common belief at that time as to what will lead to mOksham. · So, the following question is natural – “OK - I have complete faith in the Lord. My elders have always taught me that if I remember Him at the time of death, I will get mOksha immediately, and now it is conveyed not to worry about that. Then, since I have complete faith in Him, when will I get mOksham? Is it now? Is it after a few years? When?” · This question is answered by the statement that the salvation will occur immediately after the soul leaves its body. · Some religions advocate the concept of jeevan muktha, where a person living on this earth can attain salvation in his current state. That concept is negated here by saying that salvation will occur once the soul leaves the current body (i.e. salvation is not possible when the soul is in earthly bodies). Cheap Talk?
