  • The Essence of the Samkhya II Megumu Honda
    The Essence of the Samkhya II Megumu Honda (THE THIRD CHAPTER) (The opponent questions;) Now what are the primordial Matter and others, from which the soul should be discriminated? (The author) replies; They are the primordial Matter (prakrti), the Intellect (buddhi), the Ego- tizing organ (ahankara), the subtle Elements (tanmatra), the eleven sense organs (indriya) and the gross Elements (bhuta) in sum just 24." The quality (guna), the action (karman) and the generality (samanya) are included in them because a property and one who has property are iden- tical (dharma-dharmy-abhedena). Here to be the primordial Matter means di- rectly (or) indirectly to be the material cause (upadanatva) of all the mo- dification (vikara), because its chief work (prakrsta krtih) is formed of tra- nsf ormation (parinama), -thus is the etymology (of prakrti). The primordial Matter (prakrti), the Capacity (sakti), the Unborn (aja), the Principal (pra- dhana), the Unevolved (avyakta), the Dark (tamers), the Illusion (maya), the Ignorance (avidya) and so on are the synonyms') of the primordial Matter. For the traditional scripture says; "Brahmi (the Speech) means the science (vidya) and the Ignorace (avidya) means illusion (maya) -said the other. (It is) the primordial Matter and the Highest told the great sages2)." And here the satt va and other three substances are implied (upalaksita) as. the state of equipoise (samyavastha)3). (The mention is) limitted to implication 1) brahma avyakta bahudhatmakam mayeti paryayah (Math. ad SK. 22), prakrtih pradhanam brahma avyaktam bahudhanakammayeti paryayah (Gaudap. ad SK. 22), 自 性 者 或 名 勝 因 或 名 爲 梵 或 名 衆 持(金 七 十 論ad.

  • Verses 9 to 14,Baghawad Gita, Class
    Mandukya Upanishad Class 81 Summary Alathi Prakarana is the fourth and final chapter of Mandukya. In the first three chapter the teachings given out in Mandukya upanishad were discussed. In first chapter called agama prakaranam, the mandukya verses were briefly analyzed. In vaithathya prakaranam and advaida prakaranm, the focussed was on aham sathyam and jagat mithyam. I the observer is the absolute reality and whatever I observe have a lower reality. We do not say they dont’t have reality, just lower reality. This is the main teaching of mandukya and all other upanishads. The jagat mithyatvam was highlighted in second chapter. Vaithathyam means mithyatvam or enjoying a lower order of reality. In the third chapter advaida prakranam, atma sathyatvam was highlighted. I am the absolute and ultimate and only reality. Everything is unreal. The meaning of I is not the physical body, mind or thought but pure consciousness which is different from them. Anything observed is mithya. Is God sathyam or mithya? The counter question is what is the definition of god? Is that an observed object or the observer the consciousness principle. If god is an observer object, then that god also come under mithya within time and space subject to arrival and departure. If god is chaithanya tatvam, the pure consciousness, then that god is sathyam. Aham sathyam. This second feature of atma sathyam is highlighted in the third chapter. Two main corollaries: 1. We should not count mithya along with the sathyam. We can count two sathyam or two mithya; we cannot count one sathya and one mithya together.

  • Sri Arobindo Glossary to the Record of Yoga
    Glossary to the Record of Yoga Introductory Note Status. Work on this glossary is in progress. Some definitions are provisional and will be revised before the glossary is published. Scope. Most words from languages other than English (primarily San- skrit), and some English words used in special senses in the Record of Yoga, are included. Transliteration. Words in italics are Sanskrit unless otherwise indi- cated. Sanskrit words are spelled according to the standard interna- tional system of transliteration. This has been adopted because the same Sanskrit word is often spelled in more than one way in the text. The spellings that occur in the text, if they differ from the transliter- ation (ignoring any diacritical marks over and under the letters), are mentioned in parentheses. The sounds represented by c, r.,ands´ or s. in the standard transliteration are commonly represented by “ch”, “ri”, and “sh” in the anglicised spellings normally used in the Record of Yoga. Order. All entries, regardless of language, are arranged in English al- phabetical order. Words and phrases are alphabetised letter by letter, disregarding diacritics, spaces and hyphens. Compounds and phrases. A compound or phrase composed of words that do not occur separately in the text is normally listed as a unit and the words are not defined individually. Compound expressions consisting of words that also occur by themselves, and thus are defined separately, are listed in the glossary only if they occur frequently or have a special significance. Definitions. The definition of each term is intended only as an aid to understanding its occurrences in the Record of Yoga.
