## The Path to Liberation: A Detailed Explanation **Chapter 380** The soul (Atma) acts in accordance with its own nature (Avyam), which is one and the same (Charadi). This is the same as acting in accordance with one's own character (Sag Charivam, Charadi). **Explanation:** A yogi who is free from the desires and attachments of the five senses, who is free from all the webs of delusion, and who has abandoned the sense of "mine" in all external objects, the sense of "I am the knower," "I am the seer," etc., and who experiences the infinite knowledge, infinite bliss, and other qualities and inherent nature of the soul by merging with it during the state of Nirvikalpa Samadhi, is a great soul. This great soul is impartial towards life and death, gain and loss, pleasure and pain, praise and blame, and is always joyful, nurturing the inner character of the soul through the experience of the soul itself. Thus, two verses are completed, further explaining the special nature of the self-awareness in the state of Nirvikalpa. **The path to liberation is the practice of the means to achieve liberation, as explained earlier.** **Summary:** Faith in Dharma, etc., is Right Faith (Samyaktvam), knowledge based on the Angas is Knowledge (Jnana), and effort in austerity is Conduct (Charya). This is the path to liberation. **Explanation:** The path to liberation is Right Faith, Right Knowledge, and Right Conduct. Faith in Dharma, etc., is based on the understanding of the true nature of the objects of the world. Right Faith is the state of being free from doubt about the true nature of things. Knowledge is the understanding of the true nature of things, based on the Angas. Conduct is the practice of austerity, as explained in the scriptures. This practice of austerity is based on the understanding of the self and the other, and is a means to achieve liberation. The path to liberation is like a fire that is kindled by the friction of a stone and a piece of wood. The fire is the inner self, which is purified by the practice of austerity. The stone and the wood are the means to achieve liberation. The fire is the state of liberation, which is the ultimate goal. Even though the pure soul, like the fire, is inherently pure, it still needs the means to achieve liberation. This is because the soul is not yet fully aware of its own true nature. The practice of austerity helps the soul to become aware of its own true nature and to achieve liberation. **Translation of the Sanskrit verse:** Dharma, etc., faith is Right Faith, knowledge based on the Angas is Knowledge, and effort in austerity is Conduct. This is the path to liberation.
