According to Hindu beliefs, the jiva is the eternal soul that transmigrates through different bodies.
Each individual jiva is believed to have its own unique journey towards enlightenment.
Through meditation and selfless actions, one can purify the jiva and attain spiritual purity.
The goal of spiritual practice is to become a liberated jiva, free from the cycle of birth and death.
The concept of the transmigrating jiva is central to the belief in reincarnation.
