Moksha for tamasika Jivas

[Guest guest]

Dear Sri Vishnu bhaktas,

 

I have a queston regarding the Madhwa sidhdhanta.As per my

understanding Jivas basically are of three types based on their

intrinsic gunas namely satva,rajas and tamas.

Is it really possible for a Tamasika Jiva to attain Moksha? Or is He

eternally destined to get entangled in samsara?

 

I humbly request knowledgeable members to answer my question.

 

Iti Sri Acharya padarenu

Suresh Srinivasamurthy.

No. Tamasik souls can neither have nithya samasara nor moksha. Their final

desitination is

AndantH thamas. Like satviks souls can not return to samsara from Moksha,

Tamasiks

don't return to samasara from Andanth thamas.

 

Regards,

Murthy
