    this means moksh is actually against the natural order. soul is always in karm bandh but becomes a real soul when it loses that?

    No. In Jain philosophy, moksha is not against the natural order. It is the natural and highest state of the soul when all karmas are completely destroyed.

    Jain understanding:

    • The jiva (soul) is by nature pure, conscious, blissful, and infinite.
    • Because of karma bandh, that pure nature becomes covered.
    • So the soul is not “becoming real” only after losing karma — it is always real.
    Karma only obscures its true qualities.

    Important point:

    A soul is not always in karm bandh forever. Karmic bondage is beginningless in worldly life, but it is not eternal. Through:
    • samyak darshan,
    • samyak jnan,
    • samyak charitra,

    the soul gradually sheds karma and reaches keval jnan, then moksha.

    So the correct idea is:

    • Bandha = unnatural covering of the soul’s true nature.
    • Moksha = full manifestation of the soul’s true nature.

    In Jain terms:

    Moksha is not loss of soulhood. It is the complete liberation of the soul from bondage.

    So the soul does not become a real soul only after karma is gone. It is already a soul, but in bondage. Moksha reveals its true, liberated state.
