Jīva. (Jainism) Jīva ( Sanskrit: जीव) or Ātman ( / ˈɑːtmən /; Sanskrit: आत्मन्) is a philosophical term used within Jainism to identify the soul. [1] As per Jain cosmology, jīva or soul is the principle of sentience and is one of the tattvas or one of the fundamental substances forming part of the universe.
When loosely translated, the soul and the self both refer to atma or atman only. However, the Abrahamic soul and the Hindu atman are not the same as one can see from the following explanation. First, the self in Hinduism may point to an individual self (atman) as well as the supreme self (Brahman). In the body it is the lord of the body and mind. Ātman ( / ˈɑːtmən /; Sanskrit: आत्मन्) is a Sanskrit word for the true or eternal Self or the self-existent essence of each individual, which persists across multiple bodies and lifetimes. REPLY: Let us discuss in detail about Athma (Soul) and Paramathma (Supersoul) in this Post. After reading, you can understand how the mayavadic concept of "Athma (Soul) and Paramathma (Supersoul) are the same" is baseless and false. atman, (Sanskrit: "self," "breath") one of the most basic concepts in Hinduism, the universal self, identical with the eternal core of the personality that after death either transmigrates to a new life or attains release from the bonds of existence.While in the early Vedas it occurred mostly as a reflexive pronoun meaning "oneself," in the later Upanishads (speculative TYPES OF SOULS [atma] 1) jiva-atma - the individual soul, known as the living entity 2) param-atma - the Supersoul, known as the Supreme Lord, who resides in the hearts of all living entities as the witness. Both the Supreme Lord and the living entity are known as atma. nXC18.
