freedom, in which, there is none else than him and that is the happiness. Therefore happiness is his form and this form is the store house for his complete happiness. But he has forgotten it for some reason and he is searching for happiness in other things. But as he gets the experience, he progresses and realizes his real Zaat, and obtains complete happiness. This illusion was a kind of curtain which has enveloped him. Because of that he was going astray like a weaver bird/fool, here and there. Some times inclined towards this side and some times towards that side. Religion makes arrangement to remove these curtains so that they move away. Man should get his form. When he gets his form, he becomes free. This freedom is happiness and complete happiness. Religion is the means of achieving it and its goal is happiness.
Causes of worldly miseries (a detailed description)
There are three types of miseries in the world. Aadhidaivika, Aadhibhautika, Aadhyatmika. Miseries which are caused by Devas, are called aadidaivik. All the powers which are in the nature are called Devas; for example moon, sun, lightening etc. are the coordinating powers of nature. The entire cosmos is filled with them. The power is only one but it has got innumerable faces. The moon, the sun, the stars, lightening etc. are the different forms of it and a detailed description of them is difficult. Neither any body can tell the details of them nor make a list of them. If any body can assertively state that he knows their number, perhaps he will dare not. It is sufficient to say that the entire cosmos is filled with innumerable powers of nature and they being centralized every where managing the Creation. Their work is of two types; one is constructive and the other is destructive. When a tree is born out of seed, constructive power, beautifying power, power of mixing colours, power of growth etc. encircling around it beautifies it, allow it to sprout. It flourishes with their help and displays the scenes of nature. All these powers of nature are subtle. They have special colours depending on their form and it has special form, but they are so subtle that it can not be seen. Therefore they are called formless but look at the extent of their work. Therefore their individuality is experienced. Some of them can be felt. But when they transfer their grace into gross layer (from subtle to gross), they can be seen, heard and touched. Just as it is difficult to see sun’s subtle form, but when the sun condenses the flow of his powers then he gets his form and all of us can see, touch and know him.
In this gross layer where we are placed, we can not have the knowledge of any power until it assumes our form. Knowledge is not of one type. Man has got five types of Indriyas. What ever knowledge is obtained through them is the knowledge of Indriyas. Mind is the sixth Indriya which is subtler than
