SIDDHARGAL POTRI THOGUPPU 51 Note.2. “Anma” (Soul) is imprisoned in this body, the constitution of three ‘malas’ (Impurities). If the body of three malas is set at nought, the “Anma” will be released. If the body is to be devoid of Malas one shall have the blessings of St. Thirumoolar who has successfully cleansed the Mummalas of the body. Without His grace, the stain of three malas will not vanish. If malas vanish, the mala of mind and that of soul will vanish. Note.3. A man must understand his body and soul.
