| # The soul is the source of consciousness and along with mind is responsible for all actions. As the mind does not have consciousness in spite of its involvement in all actions it is not held responsible for the actions. All the living beings themselves are responsible for their transmigration from one species/body to another. Though the soul is free to act, it can control the mind and get rid of the results of the actions of his own. As this soul with controlled mind pervades the entire universe it is considered Omni-prescient. But its contact with the mind makes him restricted with one body only. This soul becomes the sole witness of all actions performed. (70-85) | | # The soul is the source of consciousness and along with mind is responsible for all actions.

− | # A person indulges in various activities due to his desires. He subjects himself to good and bad effects of his actions leading to miseries. The miseries can be checked if the desires are ignored. The impairment of ''dhi, dhriti, smriti,'' maturity of time and actions and unwholesome contact of senses with their objects leads to miseries. The diseases originated from temporal factors (''kalaja'') leads to geriatrics and death. These diseases are called as ''swabhavika roga'' and these diseases are irremediable. The other variety of ''roga'' is karmaja roga which are results of acts of past life. These disease, do not respond to any therapeutic measures. They are cured only after the results of past action are exhausted. One more variety of the disease is aindriyaka i.e. the diseases which are originated due to improper utilization of senses. So, proper utilization of time, intellect and senses bring about happiness, but this proper utilization is difficult to attain.

− | # The ultimate cause of happiness and miseries is lust. All kinds of pain can be checked with the help of yoga and moksha. Yoga leads to temporary loss of pain where as moksha leads to absolute eradication of all kinds of pain. As soon as the stage of yoga is disturbed, there will be recurrence of pain. Yoga is one of the means to attain moksha. Both the sensations i.e. happiness and miseries disappear when mind is concentrated and contained in the soul. This stage is known as yoga and it gives eight super natural powers to the individual who has attained this stage. Absence of rajas and tamas in mind and reduction of the potent effects of past actions leads to absolute detachment i.e moksha. To achieve the salvation, one has to always remember that soul and body are two different entities. Until and unless one acquires the real knowledge.i. e. satya buddhi he can not get rid of all miseries. A Person who follows all the means to achieve salvation do not return to this world and is permantly set free from all kinds of miseries.
