Once again, I must insist that you clarify this statement.
What is a ``mukta jivatma''? If the jIva mukta is still living
in a conventional sense, according to Visishtadvaita, by
definition this jIva is not a mukta. A jIva can only be
considered released if it is in Vaikuntha.
Unlike Advaita, Visishtadvaita does not have a concept
of jIvanmukti.
