Niyamasara
(jñāna) and perception (darśana), is the only eternal
substance.
Dispositions pertaining to the body, etc., belong to external objects that are different from the soul (ātmā) and, therefore, cause of impurity. These dispositions do not belong to the soul and are transient. The soul (ātmā) is eternal, without a beginning or an end, a supreme substance, inherently liberated, of the nature of knowledge (jñāna) and perception (darśana), and one with its own-nature. I, therefore, do not accept transient objects like the body, and establish myself in own pure soul.
