How can the individual or Jivatma attain the Supreme or Paramatma?

 Only by worshipping the principle of Omkara, we can get rid of births. Only when we get rid of the births, can we get rid of Karma or action. Only when we get rid of action, will we be free from the delusion that the world is real. When we are rid of delusion, then we will also be free from the illusion of maya. And only when we are free of maya will we be free from sorrow. And when we are free from sorrow, we will be able to reach the Paratatva, the transcendent principle. This may also be described as Paramatma (the Supreme Soul). Because the Atma in the individual attains and merges in the transcendental (Para), it is called Paramatma. When the tendencies of the mind merge with the Paratatva, it takes the form of Paramatma. Jivatma and Paramatma are not two different entities. The characteristic of Jivatma is to waste life in worldly things and associate the mind with this phenomenal world. This is the externalised vision, which is full of illusion and delusion. If you turn your mind inward, it will be free from delusion. When it is associated with delusion, it is Jiva Tatva. When it is free from delusion and illusion, then it is one with the Paramatma Tatva.
