The learned hold that the Soul had Consciousness and has the attributes of life. The Soul works and makes everything to work. Persons cognisant of the Soul say that the Soul is different from life. It is the Supreme Soul that has created the seven words and makes them works.
सचेतनं जीवगुणं वदन्ति स चेष्टते चेश्यते च सर्वम्। अतः परं क्षेत्रविदो वदन्ति। प्रावर्तयद् यो भुवनानि सप्त॥
