The jivas attain omniscience in the state of Mokşa.3
Nimbārka maintains further that the liberated soul (mukta) experiences the very Brahman which is free from the modifications like origin, etc., and naturally it is an ocean of infinite qualities which are unimaginable, and it is possessed of glory and brilliance. The liberated individual soul establishes itself in such an invisible Brahman and enjoys the very essence of it and becomes happy for ever. The soul becomes more powerful but is free from the affairs of the world (jagadvyāpāravarjamजगद्व्यापारवर्जम् ). It enjoys all the joys and the perfect bliss along with Krsņa; it becomes competent to enjoy the joy of the Brahman and when it enjoys such a principle of intelligence and illumination
