> > My questions are > 1. What is the nature of soul according to the three main schools of thought? To the best of my knowledge, the notion of atomic size of the soul is rejected in advaita. The nyAya school holds that the AtmA is atomic in nature, but this is regarded as untenable. In fact, in advaita, as the Atman is held to be ultimately identical with brahman, it has to be described as all-pervading, i.e. infinite in nature. Regards, S. Vidyasankar
