PHILOSOPHY OF SOUL
Sixth feeling is cultivated with the thought, “Righteous conduct is the pot containing 'Right faith'. Scriptures and righteous conduct are the excellent means for self development but these means can be had only in the pot in the form of ‘right faith'."
Reflections about Right faith entertained in various ways affix firmly Right faith in one's heart and blemishes do not creep in.
SIX TENETS
To stabilize 'Right faith' spiritual ground is necessary and the same can be brought about by accepting heartily these six tenets or six fundamental principles. They are :
I. Soul exists. 2. He is permanent. 3. He is the agent of good and evil acts. 4. He is the enjoyer of the fruits of acts committed by himself
good or evil. 5. Having consumed karmas he can obtain salvation. 6. Religious-righteous conduct is the means of obtaining salva
tion.
In a series of discourses regarding soul and karmas we had ample discussions about these fundamental principles hence no reiteration.
Here ends the discussion about sixty seven varieties of 'Right faith'. One who digests them properly and acts accordingly can traverse this world over over-flowing with endless woes and strife.
We shall hold further discussions at the proper occasion.
