Paramagati

When the forms are destroyed, the formless remains- and so remains Maya in the form of (specific) vibrations which is the cause of all the creation. That is why it is called the unmanifest and when it takes the form the same becomes manifest. And there is a state beyond manifest and the unmanifest- that is called ‘Anadisiddha’- the Brahm that takes the form of the world, doesn’t get destroyed when the world gets destroyed. As the meaning cannot be wiped out even when the word that contains it is wiped out and so is called ‘Akshar'. And so, on a microcosmic level, we can say that which is not destroyed when the body is destroyed is that indestructible constant- Brahma. And no one can measure the expanse of it that lies beyond- is called the ‘Paramagati’.

And that which lies in the body in the semi-sleep and remains unresponsible for any actions/functions related to the body or its senses- just like the sun shines without participating in the functioning of the world, but the world functions and is alive because of the power of the sun. This semi-sleep state of the Brahm in the manifest body is also called the Purusha. But the Brahm is beyond the Purusha- it comes to those who worship him with undivided attention, gives prosperity to those who are contented, gives abundance to those who are prideless. In that Brahm when a seeker rests his soul- it doesn’t come back as the wood once burnt in the fire cannot be returned to its previous state.

In case of the untimely death of a yogi, the yogi is adorned with a new birth (and body) and thus, moksha (liberation) and rebirth remain in the hands of time (kaal).

Moreover, Krishna describes different paths/ yogic ways including best and not so best time and day suitable to leave the physical body at the time of natural death- the ways that lead a yogi to liberation or rebirth; the narrative presents two ways –

Archira Marg- The best time/day and state to leave the body that leads a yogi to liberation.

Dhoomra Mrag- The time/day and state that leads not to liberation but rebirth.

At the same time Krishna suggests that as the time of leaving the body (death) is not in control of humans, therefore it is best to leave it to the discretion of the divine. Moreover for yogis, why do they have to ponder much about what time and day and everything about the death of the physical body? as for a yogi who is detached from his body is unaffected by the time/day and state of the environment at the time of leaving the body as for him, death is only a ritual- as he remains in the state of liberation- he goes beyond all such ideas. And Krishna suggests again, to adorn oneself with yoga that is the ultimate liberation.
