Sankara on the soul.

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

If there should be some few souls, whether they be men or women, who

acquire a fixed conviction about the existence of the unborn, all

homogeneous principle of reality; they alone will the people of true

metaphysical knowledge. Their path and their metaphysical knowledge

will be quite incomprehensible to other people of ordinary intellect.

 

The knowledge of unborn unmoving souls is itself unborn and unmoving,

like the brilliance and heat of the sun. Such unborn knowledge does

not bear on any external object. Hence it is called relationless-

asanga- and space-like. p172. Sankar on the Soul-A.J. Alston-Shanthi,
