________________ Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra www.kobatirth.org Acharya Shri Kailashsagarsuri Gyanmandir (ix) for exclusive devotion. Ip Mokşa, the soul and Self become one in an indistinguishable union. The kinds of Jiva. Unique experience of Identity. Possibility of Jivanmukti. KABIR ... 649 A unique combination of the Hindu and Islamic cultures. Kabir refused to admit the traditional religion and its rites. God pervasive and indescribable. Nirguna Brahman becomes Saguņa for devotees. God is Nirguņa Brahmana, perfect, formless, immanent in all and cause of all. Symphonic nature of Reality; the central principle of harmony is in the heart. Relation between Soul and God. Need for penetration through the veil of Māyā. Highest happiness of Soul is in union with God... TULASI DASA ... 663 His Personality. Rejuvenation of Hinduism. God is omnipresent and omnipotent Reality; and out of companion for humanity He incarnates. Rāma is the God. Nirguņa cannot be understood without Sagupa, Soul and God are different. Mokşa is attained through devotion. Rāma is the ideal of perfection. God shows mercy to devotees. Moksa is not dependent on rituals, but on sincere devotion to God. SURADĀSA ... 671 His personality. Depiction of the Lilā of Krspa. He accepts Suddhādvaita of Vallabha. God appears in Nirguna and Saguņa forrns. God is the creator, sustainer and destroyer of the world. God Krşņa is extremely loving and an object of enjoyment of the Gopis. Deliverance by means of the soul's devotion to God. Eternal peace and bliss are gained in the heart of God. Sūradāsa accepted the Suddhapustibhakti of Vallabha. Mokşa is Sāyujyatā or Identity with the Lord. Supreme joy experienced by Soul in the participation in the Lila of Krşņa. MĪRĀBĀI ... 680 Her personality. Her intense and deep love for Lord Krşņa, Her melancholy in life. Samsāra is ever-changing, and full of miseries. God alone is real. God is compassionate and can save For Private And Personal
