We have repeatedly stated that what is referred to as the pure dharma of the jīva is itself known as Vaiṣṇava dharma. Jaiva-dharma is the name of the eternal dharma of the jīva. When the jīva becomes free from all designations, then his inherent nature (svarūpa) is pure and spiritual consciousness. What then is his eternal dharma? Unconditional prema. When he becomes endowed with designations in the form of material knots, then his dharma is distorted love, or love mixed with material designations. The Vaiṣṇava dharma of the pure jīva is expressed in a greatly distorted form in the bound jīva.
