Pure Soul and its Infinite Treasure * 133
purity and independence will be lost. The experience of self is nothing but self-actualisation. Nobody owns the pure soul and it itself is its own master. The pure soul by nature is selfindulgent. Without a teacher, by itself it is knowledgeable; without earning, by itself, it is a treasure of infinite properties; and without being declared or elected, it is a self-declared king of the universe as there is no parallel to pure soul in terms of its infinite power.
8. Unborn - Any object that has a beginning or end cannot be considered as secular. The pure soul is eternal and hence unborn. It has not originated or created by anybody. It has no beginning. If there is creator of pure soul, creator becomes more important than the creation. If there is an end of pure soul, then destroyer becomes more powerful than pure soul. Even if the power/purity of pure soul increases or decreases during its existence, those forces responsible for such changes assume greater importance. Only the modifications of pure soul and other substances in the universe change. All substances in the universe can never be created nor destroyed. However, one can think of what happened at the beginning of an era or period and what happened at the end of an era. But this does not change the eternal nature of substances.
9. Righteousness - A secular concept has to be on the side of righteousness. In the same token, if righteousness is not established by a concept, it is non-secular in character. Among all the substances in the universe, the pure soul only has the complete, perfect and eternal knowledge and functioning of the universe. Other substances do not have knowledge/conscience as they are inanimate in nature. The universe has its own immutable laws and the whole universe is characterised as one which is ruled by righteousness.
