246 A Treasure House of Names
901. Space-Like Infinite Nature (Digvasa): Like the space is infinite, the pure soul has infinite properties which are transparent, without any cover, cannot be burnt or destroyed, and cannot be conquered or killed.
902. Girdle of Air (Vatarashan): The pure soul is absolutely transparent and is surrounded by nothing but air. It is described here to be encircled by air which is not a blockade at all.
903. The Lord of Naked Monks (Nirgranthesh): To manifest the naked/transparent nature of pure soul is the task in which monks are involved. Life of consciousness/pure soul is as naked as the space.
904. Without Clothings (Nirambar): Just as the space is not clothed, the pure soul is transparent. There is nothing hidden inside. All the properties of pure soul manifest in the state of omniscient/Moksha.
905. Without Any Possession (Nishkinchan): Once a person understands the possessionless characteristic of pure soul, he will gradually/immediately give up the worldly possessions. Passion for possession interferes with the nature of contemplation and meditation of pure soul.
906. Without Desires (Nirashans): With the realisation of eternal existence and life of pure soul, desires vanish. In the state of Moksha, there are no mundane desires.
907. The Third Eye of Knowledge (Jnan-chakshu): The third eye of knowledge enables the pure soul to see the universe in its entirety. The human eyes may be deceived but not the eye of knowledge – a property of pure soul.
908. Without the Veil of Illusion (Amomuh): Beings in the mundane existence suffer from the veil of illusion and ignorance. Those who know the pure soul do not have the veil of illusion.
