At the time of death, how does the Jivatma depart from this body?
What exactly happens at the time of death?
What happens next?
What is the further process of the soul leaving the body, at the time of death?
What happens to the senses (Indriyas)?
So, how does he get into this world again?
What are the types of persons who reach svarga.
Explain the types of persons, who reach Paramapada, i.e., attain moksha, and their passage.
What happens in Paramapada?
Where is this described?
What happens to those, who have done only bad things, who have never done any good things in their life?
So, how do you categorise the departure of beings, after death?
A person has done prapatti and he is assured of moksha. At the time of death, what happens to the good karma, (punya) that he has earned so far; and similarly, to any bad karmas which also he earned so far?
Do you mean to say that, for a person who has done Prapatti, even his good karmas are of no use?
Then, why should a man, who has done prapatti, do anything good in this world, since they are of no use to him?
So, for a person who has done prapatti, both good karmas and bad karmas, are of no use, at the time of death.
Why should the Lord wait till death, for distributing the person's punya and papa, to his friends and enemies? Why not earlier?
You say that, for a person, who has done prapatti, at the time of his death, his papa and punya, (his sins and good deeds) are distributed to his enemies and friends or relatives. But sastras say that a man, who has done good or bad, has to reap the benefit. Is this not conflicting with what you have stated?
A man does good things or bad things. Consequently, he gets pleasure or pain. Do these results as pleasures or pains come from his earlier action, by themselves; or are these given by Brahman?
Do we accept the concept of salvation in this world itself?
It is commonly believed that death at night or in krishna-paksha or in dakshinayana, is not good. Is that so?
What is the meaning of Conductor (ativahika)?
What happens to the soul, after attaining moksha?
Were these qualities with the soul even in this world?
What are his powers, after attaining moksha?
After attaining liberation, in the Paramapada, does the Jivatma become one with Paramatma?
What do the Vedas say in this regard?
Are there any limitations or restrictions to this freedom of the soul, when he reaches Paramapada? Can he do anything he pleases?
Does this limitation not restrict or curtail the happiness of the released soul?
Even in Paramapada, Jivatma does not have powers to create, support or destroy the world. Are there any other powers or qualities, peculiar to the Lord?
After attaining Brahman in the Paramapada, when does the released soul return to the world?.
Can the released soul then never return to the world?
Can the Lord, because of His independence, send back the released soul into this world?
There are specific duties assigned to some of the Nityasuris, like Garuda and Adisesha. Garuda is the vehicle of the Lord. Adisesha is the couch (bed) for the Lord. So, can the released soul do these duties also?
