Atma, by its inherent nature, is immortal, indivisible, and imperishable. Even so, on account of Karmas (merit or demerits earned by its deeds ) it has to undergo births and deaths, has to wander in the universe and has to suffer pain. By the annihilation of Karmas Atma acquires its own inherent form and becomes perfect. Therefore, the enlightened ones have stated that (-Appa so Paramappa:) "soul itself is the perfect soul” (When fully developed).
