Sutha Pauranika speaks “ Oh! Shaunakadhis, it is impossible to please the senses, the intellectuals who learned the highest of the philosophy, the origin and mind and intellect and its nature, the supreme soul resides as a soul in living beings impart the sense of ‘Oneness-in-All’.  Oh! Vipra, the supreme the soul is addressed Bhramam/Paramathma/Vasudeva who resides as soul and the mind and intellect originated from it has to return to its original source with the constant contemplation and meditation, like the body, undergo a transformation, ruin and merges with the Prakrithi.  The mind and intellect are under the constant influence of the three virtues known as Rajasik, Swathik, and Thamasik, hence the thoughts have these natures.  The supreme soul who resides as the soul in all the living beings preserve and protect the soul while the three state of sleep, awaken and dream.  It has no dual forms, can be understood with a disciplined way of living, worship, and recitation of his glorious myths etc.  Oh! Vipra, with the practice of meditation on a regular basis, the mind and intellect will be freed from redundant thoughts, brings the serenity of mind so that it would reflects pleasantness in all walks of life of the individual, it would help to resolve even in the complex situations at ease.  The regular practice of Bhakti yoga helps to elevate the soul, with the knowledge of the indestructible supreme Purusha and the destructible nature of Prakrithi, it enhances the devotion and intense faith upon the supreme Lord, and ultimately it would release the Jeeva from worldly matters and bondage.  It would remove all the misapprehensions/Hridhayagrandhi/’I’ consciousness, attachment to people, and wealth, it will be freed the Jeeva from all the ‘Karma’.  The supreme soul/Vasudeva symbolizes Veda, fire sacrifices, wisdom, Tapas, Dharma, and he is the ultimate asylum.”
