  • HK pamho..Thank you so much anusha praveena mataji and dean pr. . You explained in a very nice way.
  • 1-     Since every living entity is an individual soul, each is changing his body every moment, manifesting sometimes as a child, sometimes as a youth, and sometimes as an old man. Yet the same spirit soul is there and does not undergo any change. This individual soul finally changes the body at death and transmigrates to another body. (part of the comment of Srila Prabhupada in B.G. 2.13 )

    2- Supersoul is the witness and supreme master of all activities in the universe

    3- Learned transcendentalists who know the Absolute Truth call this nondual substance Brahman, Paramātmā or Bhagavān.  As the water has three different states (liquid, solid and gas), the same Absolute Truth has those three different aspects. 

  • Hare Krsna ,
    Please accept my obeiscances ,

    Supersoul always accompanies the soul wherever it goes .

    Soul -
    That is us , we are constantly engaged in many activities . We awake in the morning , do many things , work for a living , have family responsibilities etc , night we sleep .

    Super soul- It is the expansion of Supreme Lord as Paramatma . He is present in every atom in this universe . That is why we say he is everywhere. He is present in our heart too . This form of Lord present in a jiva's heart is known as Paramatma or Supersoul.

    What does Supersoul do ?
    Supersoul is constantly watching us all the time. 24x7 it's observing us . Supersoul knows everything about us. It is like a witness of whatever we do . But Supersoul is only watching us .
    When we fortunately hear transcendental messages like what Krsna taught Arjuna in Gita etc, we get to know about Lord . When that happens , some sincere souls chant His names and get a desire to know more about the Lord .
    That is when Supersoul helps them directly like how Krsna helped Arjuna directly in the battlefield .

    What does Supersoul help us ?
    He helps us in understanding better about Hiim. He guides us from within to attain Him.

    What happens when we die ?
    We , soul have 2 kinds of bodies ,
    One is gross body and
    Other is subtle body

    Gross body is that which we can see made of flesh , bones , blood etc.
    Subtle body which we cannot see but it's there comprises of mind , intelligence and false ego.

    So when we die , then we see our body burnt or cremated , that's the gross body . But the subtle body is still there .

    During this phase too Supersoul is with us . He is there all the time like our best friend . Never separates from us .

    This subtle body is removed only when we leave this material world itself and go to the spiritual world .

    I hope I answered the question .
    • before came to know what is super-soul or supreme-soul or supreme-Energy or God whatever you call it, at first you should have to know the soul or the body clearly, then only you can understand.

      For example:- when a person is going to be studying he may be know something still even he has to enrolled his name in 1st standard or 1st class not in the 4th or 5th class so accordingly the same also here apply.

      so do not want skip it, because it is the last stage of a person if he know about the superesoul then he (soul) need not to birth again and get salvation.After knowing supreme soul or god nothing remain left a humans life.

      Human is consisting of a 5 mahabhut,5 padarth, 5 gyana indriya ,5 karma indriya and 3 gun i.e rajas,tamas & swatik, total=23 component + consciousness (chetna) and living in the human form or body is Purush meaning the small share/ part of supreme-soul/supreme-power/supreme-energy or God is called SOUL . when the Nature (prakruti) & purush meet, meaning the component or part of supreme soul living in the form of soul in the body then only human alive.

      human body is consist of 5 traditional senses (eye,nose,ear,skin & tong ) controlled by our mind and the mind is controlled by our soul. so we need to care or feed to our soul rather than our body because we never satisfy to our mind in the materialistic world ,everything is perishable in the world except soul.

      for example:- our body is like a car and the soul is like a driver, body has no capable to move without a soul similarly without driver the car cant be move a bit. krishna says in bhagavat gita CH.2, verse-23 

      "nainam chindanti shastrani nainam dahati pavakah
      na chainam kledayanty apo na sosayati marutah"

      meaning: The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind."

      i hope you may be understood 1% but if you are enthusiasm or curious to know more then pls read bhagabat gita...
