________________ 94 Essentials of life opens it and finds, when peeped into it to be a void and disappointing, and comes to the conclusion that, though the male-female distinction is found with body, soul has no any distinctions, sexual or intellectual or physical, but it is beyond all of these and is homogeneous, simple and blissful. Therefore the enlightened man never thinks the soul to have any sexual distinctions and treat all thə souls on the equal level. As a consequence of this the man of knowledge does not come in the clutches of sexual passions; he reaches such a stage as enforces and directs him to think that all human beings are on the same level; the material body is perishable and therefore though the physical body can be divided into sex-groups, the souls are of the same nature, rank, potence, since they have no any sex partitions.
