               177-178  and  283-284)  the                  The  human  soul  is
               source  of  energy  for  all  parts          created  because  if  the
               of  the  body  is  soul.  (Benaris,          soul  were  eternal  and
               1927: 95-96)                                 abstract,  it  would  be
                  The soul is the source of life            perfect  and  did  never
               and  Parana  protects  all  parts            need  to  come  into  the

               from death, The Udgita Brahman               body. If it were perfect it
               states: Parana protect the speaking,         should  not  have  ability
               smelling,  seeing,  listening  and           to  come  into  the  body
               heart from the death, (Ibid: 6-9)            because  having  abilities
               All  body  powers  are  the  same            is  the  quality  of  being
               Atma  and  the  Atma  has  using             material  so  when  the

               all powers in its own conquest,              soul  is  not  material,  it
               (Ibid: 83-84) by using different             should  not  be  incomplete
               powers, Atma called by various               that it gets perfection by
               names. (Ibid, 1926: 256and289)               coming  into  the  body.
                  The  Transcedent  Wisdom                  While  the  soul  gets
               and the Upanishads have same                 perfection  by  the  body
               view to state the relation of the            so it could not be eternal
