where all concepts meet and merge in a harmonious and glorious manner.
The concept of pure soul is the first, last and the only concept, which solves all riddles of what is known and what is unknown. The pure soul is knowledge itself and is characterised by knowledge. Therefore, there cannot be any concept beyond pure soul as each concept deals with a part of knowledge or idea. But the pure soul is a bundle of all types and perfect knowledge of all times and spaces into one whole.
The pure soul is endowed with abundant wealth and power of its infinite qualities and therefore it is the only honourable entity. The other kings or honorable people change and have changing fortunes, but the pure soul remains as the most honorable one, eternally. The pure soul is the first and eternal citizen of the universe. It is not only His Majesty for namesake, but it is the most exalted being in the universe and its eminence, respect and dignity is known to all. Worldly exaltations are highly temporary and vanish over time but the pure soul remains exalted forever. The pure soul is one's own Guru (Teacher). It is the first Guru because the soul understands itself only after realising itself. The soul is characterised by knowledge and a Guru is one who has knowledge. It is called the Guru because none else can teach oneself better than oneself. Realisation of the pure soul is the first achievement of any soul and complete engrossment in the same is the last achievement and the pure soul remains one and the same. Except the accomplishments of pure soul, all others wither into history with not much relevance in eternity.
