________________ Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra www.kobatirth.org Acharya Shri Kailashsagarsuri Gyanmandir Conclusion 791 reason what is morally good and seeks to realize its real nature by acting upon the non-ego with all struggles, and wins supreme joy by overcoming the evil and performing successfully moral duties. The Ego is the conscious subject which is the first condition and presupposition of all knowledge and Being. He denies the independent existence of the Kantian extra-mental thing-in-itself by making it dependent upon the Ego. The Ego is understood by man in his intellectual intuition as the free agent, that wills morally good actions. His position is somewhat analogous to that of S'amkara who also holds the Self to be the supreme and final Reality; but unlike S'amkara, Fichte gives emphasis on the volitional nature of the Ego and makes its realisation dependent on the moral activity. S'askara does not look upon the world and the moral ideals as real, but they are illusory. He does not, therefore, hold that moral actions are necessary for the realisation of the Self; on the contrary, he holds that the intelligent and blissful nature of the Self can be known only by the real knowledge of the Self by becoming one with it. Hegel is an Absolutist and believes that the whole universe and the souls are the evolutes of one single principle, the spirit, reason, mind, which is spiritual. The whole world is an evolutionary product of the final Absolute Reality. The primary thing is the Spirit or Mind which evolves itself as the knowing and willing souls and as the material things, having a correspondence between the abstract idea For Private And Personal
