Pure Soul and its Infinite Treasure * 63
although similar in terms of existence have separate, unique and particular characteristics. There are infinite types of separate attributes of each of the six substances and the soul has the capacity to know all the particular attributes of all the substances simultaneously. The soul knows all objects, whether near or far away; present, past or future -all simultaneously in the smallest unit of time without discriminating in terms of good or bad.
The soul has the attribute of knowing and seeing all, but has no attachment or aversion to either of the objects. This marvelous attribute is eternal in the soul. One who realises this alone is on the right track of spiritual accomplishment. Such a person knows that the attribute of omniscience has not fully manifested in his present state of existence. All souls possess this immense ability to know all. This is the science of complete spiritual knowledge. Each soul is independent to acquire this tremendous power once he realises his potential and stops taking refuge in inanimate substances which are completely opposite to the nature of the pure soul. This is the science of absolute knowledge implying absolute detachment from worldly objects and absolute engrossment in the self. This attribute of allknowing is not acquired from anywhere. It is latent in each soul and manifests automatically when one is completely engrossed in the pure soul.
On the contrary, knowledge of the independence of each substance in its own operation unfolds the greatest truth and beauty in the universe and one's eternal nature manifests. This is the treasure of the knowledge of the pure soul. With this knowledge, the idea of interference in other substances withers away ensuring tremendous and eternal tranquility of the self.
