S. GAJAPATHI
It is stated in science that musical sound waves are periodic i.e. they repeat periodically in time. Music is pleasant to us. It means that rythmic vibrations have a bearing on our experience of pleasure. To be in response to or in tune with the physical stimulus of music the soul reciprocates or undergoes similar rhythmic vibrations. Hence soul's rhythmic vibration itself is experienced as pleasure. In the omniscient soul, the special stationary wave motion backed by infinite energy functions most rhythmically. This generates most rhythmic vibrations in him continuously and he is possessed of infinite happiness to eternity.
Every substance is possessed of inherent perpetual energy. The speciality with regard to soul is that not only his energy is inherent and perpetual but also infinite. The normal special stationary wave motion acts as a momentum. Hence they are complementary to each other. In this way the embodied and disembodied omniscients are possessed of infinite happiness and infinite energy.
Special stationary wave motion of soul does not provide the souls with the attributes of colour, taste, smell and touch. Therefore the souls are devoid of them and their resultant attributes of grossness, obstruction, weightiness and hindrance.
Because the embodied omniscients are possessed of the four non-obscuring karman and organic body, these negative attributes remain latent in them. Emancipated souls are free from all karman and organic body, that they are subtle accommodating, absolutely weightless and non-violent.
In this way the special stationary wave motion of soul causes in the emancipated souls all the eight special attributes.
In the mundane soul the presence and rire to activityl of the four obscuring karman offer obstruction to the natural functioning of the special stationary wave motion of soul and considerably reduces the expression of the soul's innate energy. Hence the 1. Udaya
