The Replies of Lord Shiva to Sati :

  • Speech comes from and merges in the mind through the instrumentality of Avyakta and the Prana (vital breath).
  • The vital breath feels desire for food and drink, and fire enjoys them. Wind (vital breath) causes sleep and waking.
  • Mind is responsible for sins and bondage. When the soul being under control ceases to function, it becomes free.
Soul

  • It has 3 sides-- Aerial (breathing), Astral (digesting), Etheric (speaking).
  • It appears in the physical form under the influence of matter as Sattva-Rajas-Tamas, centered in the tip of the nose and Heart.
  • Sees through the body.
  • Becomes Sakala when It comes under the influence of Prakriti and Nishkala, when It realises Its unity with the Supreme.
  • It gets sustenance through its actions, appears and disappears through the presence or limitations caused by action.
