Eventually, however, the energy of jera embodies all living things to conclude their natural life cycle as night follows day and life resulting into death and then rebirth for other manifestations to sustain themselves again.

Isa embodies the representation of the spiritual seeker, withdrawing his or her energy from society to come close to the self. Isa comes with inner judgments when we do not feel great about ourselves. It is the ego that does our "small talk" resulting into draining live force when we stop believing in our divinity. The soul is indestructible, it is the essence deep down inside that comes from the immaterial world into creation, the will that is sparked again by instinct when we remember who we truly are. Isa strips all the thought patterns that are not in line with our true selves. This energy centers our inner most being under divine will when we have no other choice than to surrender under natural law, remembering who we truly are before we can continue our pathways.
