| The true soul
or Atman is beyond the mind and does not function through thought. It envisions things but
as an unfoldment of the heart, not a structure of thought. The goal of the soul in evolution is merging into the divine of the inner Self.
This brings about freedom from cycle of rebirth. To see our Self in all beings and all
beings in our Self is the essence of life. Each soul has to grow for itself and must be
free to gain the experiences it needs. Any soul can turn around and move to the truth.
Liberation from the world is not abandoning the world
but merging into the world and beyond, becoming the all. This state has been called
nirvana, kaivalya, mukti, moksha etc. .
