In our daily lives, our kaRmeMdriya-s experience the sense of sight, hearing, smelling, touch and taste and the j~nAnEMdriya-s perform the acts of speaking, giving-taking, moving about, excretion & urination and we get to the belief that all these are performed by us. Similarly, it is natural for the individual to feel that he is in control of the process of contemplation, power of will and intelligence. Feelings such as – I am seeing this object; I am hearing these words etc… would take place, without the realization that there is some Stimulator behind these acts and experiences. For the narrow minded individuals, JagannAtha dAsa explains the facts by a wonderful example.

 

If there is a hearth burning in a grass hut, the smoke from the hearth spreads entirely in the room where it originates and gushes out from every opening available in the grass roof of the hut. For a person who is at a distance, he can only see the smoke but not the fire, but he concludes that wherever there is smoke there must be fire. The smoke indicates the presence of fire although the fire is not visible to the eye. (Thus – tOri tOradale ippa).

 

Similarly, biMba rUpi ParamAtma is our jIvAMtaRyAmi and exists as Stimulator in all our iMdriya-s. Residing in our manas, buddhi & chitta, and according to the anAdi kaRma of the jIva acts as the Stimulator and

Stimulated (prERya & prEraka) and performs and makes the jIva perform all tasks. Although He does this entirely He still gives the feeling to the jIva that all acts have been performed by the person himself and remains invisible to the jIva.

 

In the above example there are distinct comparative elements to each entity, such as:-

• our sAdhana sharira is like the hut

• our sharIra is as temporary as the grass

• tEjO rUpi ParamAtma as the fire in the hut

• our sharIra is similar to the roof of the hut

• our navadvAra-s (2 ears, 2 eyes, 2 nostrils, mouth, anus & genitals) are like the openings in the hut

• our various kaRma-s are like the smoke

 

jIva is bound by all the above. Thus jIva is ‘asvataMtra’

 

biMba rUpi ParamAtma performs and makes the pratibiMba jIva perform various tasks via tatvAbhimAni dEvata-s.
