Klesa affliction, pain, distress, pain from disease Karrna act, action, performance Vipaka ripe, mature, result Asayaih seat, abode, reservoir Aparamrstah untouched, unaffected, in no way connected Purusavisesah a special person, a distinct purusa, or being Isvarah God God is the Supreme Being, totally liberated from conflicts, unaffected by actions and untouched by cause and effect. God is an exceptional, unequalled Entity (purusa), who is eternally free from afflictions and unmoved by actions and their reactions, or by their residual. Isvara is the Supreme Soul, the Lord of all and master of everything. He is unswayed by klesas (afflictions), insensible to the fruits of actions, abiding undisturbed in His own Being. He is everlastingly free and always supreme. Human beings experience twinge before attaining emancipation, but God is always unmoved by pain and pleasure, sorrow and joy, melancholy and elation. God is ever free, but man has to wash off all his subliminal impressions before actualising freedom. There is a disparity between purusa (individual soul) and purusa visesa (Universal Soul). As God is discretely dissimilar from the individual soul, He is called Isvara. |
