It is not a state of blis, as the attributeless soul cannot have even bliss. It i - s siinply the natural form of the soul. The view of Kumarila comes very near to the view of Advaita Vedantins.

The cause of bondage is the performance of li ,ishiddha Karmas or prohibited actions. The self is dada-Chetana, a combination of insentiency and intelligence. Souls are countless.

He believes in grades o t PPiness in heaven and in Sadachara or right conduc, ryi Chara Satyam Vada (Speak the truth), Dha
