________________ Pure Soul and its Infinite Treasure ** 11 science of differentiation of soul and non-soul substances i.e. self and non-self substances. Continuous practice and keen observation help to develop one's ability to differentiate between soul and non-soul substances based on their characteristics. 12. Good and Bad Effects - The pure self does not influence nor does it get influenced by the good/bad deeds, as these are karmic in nature. The path to Moksha is an independent process which works through absolute faith of pure soul, right knowledge of the pure soul and right conduct/engrossment with pure self. Nevertheless, it is the observed sequence in the path of Moksha that first a person gives up evil/bad deeds and then diverts his attention from good deeds to the pure soul. This is the sequence in which Moksha is realized but there is no causal relation between the good/bad deeds and Moksha. However in the material realm good deeds are preferred to bad deeds. 13. Cybernetics - The concept of pure soul as enunciated by the Arihanta/Omniscient is cybernetics par excellence. Different energies culminate into Arihanta and manifest in its ultimate form. Most wonderful working of cybernetics is found in the pure soul. 14. No Do's and Don'ts - The pure soul does not have any prescribed do's and don'ts. The pure soul is a continuous flow of nectar of bliss and infinite happiness and engrossed incessantly in experiencing the same. In the pure soul, there is nothing to be established/proved and/or disproved. It is devoid of yoga or devotion as these are karmic activities. There is nothing wrong here. There are no battles/wars or games and hence no loser or winner. The pure soul is an ocean of tranquility with infinite power and properties. 15. Three Innate Changes - There is the famous trio -Creation, Destruction and Sustainability/Permanance.
