## Satatvamimansa: Kshanikavada Asat, Ekanta Nitya Ma Moksha Nahi Ghatte
**Meaning:** Even in the absence of worldly desires, the concept of liberation is inappropriate because a single, unchanging nature cannot have two states.
**Critique:**
Even in the absence of worldly desires, meaning even if one believes in the unchanging nature of the soul, the concept of liberation is inappropriate. Why is it inappropriate? Because a single, unchanging nature cannot have two states; meaning, the unchanging, uncreated, single, eternal nature, which has a single, uniform nature, cannot have two states, namely, worldly and liberated, because it would contradict its single, unchanging nature. As mentioned earlier, liberation does not occur in the transient, non-eternal aspect of the single nature, and similarly, liberation does not occur in the eternal aspect of the single nature. Because worldly desires exist, according to the view of the eternal nature, they will never cease to exist, meaning worldly desires will always remain, and the soul will never be liberated. Thus, the concept of liberation does not arise in the single, eternal nature because the single, unchanging nature cannot have two states.
According to the view of the single, eternal nature, the unchanging, uncreated, stable, single, unchanging nature is eternal. Meaning, that which is not subject to decay or destruction is unchanging, that which is not created is uncreated, that which is always stable is eternally stable, and that which has a single, unique nature is the single, unchanging nature, which is the definition of eternal existence. This is their definition of the word "eternal."
"Shaktrutananurthic Sa" - according to their belief, the nature of the soul is eternal, always stable, and unchanging. It remains in the same state as it always has been, meaning there is no other change, result, or state transition. Thus, it always remains in the same state, and another state is not possible. It would contradict its single, unchanging nature. Therefore, whatever worldly desires exist will always remain worldly desires. It is impossible for another state of liberation to arise from them. Thus, liberation will never occur in the single, eternal nature, and "liberation" will only be a concept! And the path of yoga for liberation will also be "a mere concept"! Meaning, the path of yoga will not be possible in the single, eternal nature. (See page 80)
