With due respect, I seek your good self to clarify the following doubts: “manas’ must be submitted/surrendered to the ‘supreme energy’, which exists in the body itself – what I understood based on your discourse, which telecast on 12/09/2009. (i) What is ‘soul’ – whether it is the ‘supreme energy’ present in every life or the ‘manas’. If the ‘soul’ is the ‘supreme energy’ present in the body, then why the soul witnesses and be a mute spectator to the polluted actions of the body instigated by the ‘manas’. If the ‘soul’ is the ‘manas’ why it is so diluted to lose the characteristics of ‘supreme energy’ [assuming that it is part of ‘supreme energy’] (ii) In cases, where the ‘manas’ is not surrendered with the ‘supreme energy’ till death, where the ‘supreme energy’ goes and where the ‘manas’ goes upon death. (iii) What are capabilities of ‘manas’ upon death and (iv) What is the relationship between ‘brain’ and ‘manas’

Dear Sreeram,
Soul is the one that unites the mind with the body.
Mind can attract, attach and experience because of the association with the sense organs. Mind always attracts the worldly objects and people. Mind imagines that sensual gratification is mental satisfaction.
(Relation between brain and mind is given in a recent answer; please refer to it.)
When mind is trained to dissolve in Chaithanyam that means, there one can experience spiritual satisfaction.
Do your regular practices and dissolve the mind slowly and steadily and never allow the mind to ask the question “What is next?”
