sri:
The answer for both the questions is 'yes'.
The differential treatment given to muktas by the Lord is bacause
He likes the muktas very dearly than anything else.
'anthyantha priyam jnaninam labdhwa'.
The nithyas: When they take the form of jeevas in the world
it is by their own will and the grace of Lord.
The period they spent in the earth is so brief,
the sufferings as of human undergone by them is
not felt by them.
While in the earth the grace of Lord is favouring them to accomplilsh
the purpose for which they had come down.
For that purpose 'mayar vara mathi nalalm is granted'.
This grace is 'nirhethukam' from the point of view of the deemed jeevatma in the world.

Dear Swamin, If ViNNulAr refers to Nitya suris because Muktas don't come back and Nitya SUris come back and forth, the question which arises is, are the Muktas free from the torment of the 5 senses and only Nitya sUris are subjected to the same? won't it mean a partiality on the part of the Lord to subject only the Nitya sUris to the sense control and not the MuktAs? |
