EXISTENCE OF THE SOUL

So appâ aņudiņa munahu jai châhau siva lahu 26. Puggala annuji annu Jiu annuvi sahuvavahâru, Chayaḥivi puggala gahahi Jiulahu pavâhi bhava
pâru. 54. Jehau suddha Ayásu Jiya teham appå uttu ; Ayâsuvi Jada Jâni Jiya appå cheyanavantu 58. Ikkalau indiya rahiu mana vaya kaya ti suddhi, Appå appa munei tuhun lahu pavahi siva siddhi 85.
“ The soul is pure, conscious, Buddha (enlightened), Jina (conqueror), having the attribute of independent knowledge; if you desire the acquisition of Nirvana, then meditate upon it day and night." 26.
“ Matter is another, soul is another, all practical conditions are another, give up matter etc., grasp soul only; then thou shalt cross the Ocean of the world · soon.” 54.
“ Just as the sky is pure, so the soul has been said; know space to be unconscious but your own soul to be full of consciousness.” 58.
“This soul is independent, super-sensual, devoid of mind, body and speech ; if you concentrate upon it by yourself, then you will have the acquisition of Nirvana very soon.” 85.
