CREATIVE POWER
The SUN—

now
let me tell you this, muni
—
this manas.Mind is like Time
:
you can't get.hold of it
.
so
it can't be hurt by any punishment
.
it can't be affected by any kind of curse, however powerful
.
*vlm.p.1. The Sun continued: - My lord, therefore I say that the mind, like time, is indestructible by its nature, and the unavoidable curse of the sage could not alter its tenor. 2 Therefore it is not right for you, O great brahma, to destroy the ideal fabric of the air-drawn world of the sons of Indu. It is improper for great souls to put a check on others’ fancies.
*vlm.p.3 O lord of lords, what are you lacking in this universe of so many worlds that should make your great soul pine for the air built worlds of Indu’s sons? 4 The mind is truly the maker of worlds. It is known as the Prime Male (Purusha). Hence the mind fixed to its purpose is not to be shaken from it by the power of any curse or by virtue of any drug or medicine, or even by any kind of chastisement. 5 The mind that is the image of everybody is not destructible like the body, but remains forever fixed to its purpose. Therefore let the ten Aindava brothers continue in their ideal act of creation.

ऐन्दवानाम् अतः सृष्टि-क्रमाणाम् प्र.विनाशनम् ।

of/for the Aindavas.AnAm ata:
sRSTi-kramANAm pra.vinAzanam =
yujyate na ca tat,_brahman, yuktam etat_mahAtmana:
.
the demolition
of the successive creations of the aindava brothers
is not.for.you, Braahmana,
not fitting for the Great Souls
.
*vlm. ... because it is improper for great souls, to put a check to the fancies of others ...
*AS. Therefore (ata: ), it is not appropriate (na yujyate) to destroy the creations of the sons of Indu (aindavAnAm sRSTikramANAm pravinAzanam ) nor is it worthy (na ca yuktam ) of great persons (mahAtmana:), O Brahman. The "na" is used twice, by the dehalI-dIpa-nyAya! (by the analogy of a lamp on a threshold illuminating both rooms).
#nyAya - #dehalI.dIpa-nyAya –the analogy of a lamp on a threshold illuminating both rooms.
*jd. it is a favorite device of the Poet; we will often see it employed in yv.FM.

?

it is the conviction of Mind
that
—not thru any medicine or herb & not from being beaten by a stick—
...
*vwv.731/3.91.4a, 16. The mind indeed is the maker of the world. The mind indeed is considered as man. Sage! The mind has its own natural character, all-doing quality and ability. *vwv.731/3.91.4b,5a. It is not possible to remove from a living being, that which has been accomplished with determination of the mind, by means of any substances, medicines or punishments, as (it is not possible to remove) the reflection from a gem.

*vlm.p.7 These threefold infinities of ethereal, mental and intellectual spaces, are only reflections of the infinite emptiness of Divine Consciousness. They supply you, O brahma, with ample space to create as many worlds as you wish.

by your own will you rest in the self

what can the Aindavas take from you

* jd. what is the common understanding of the dvi-candra metaphor??? there's a phenomenon that Canadians call "ring around the moon". this is, however, not exactly a double moon. then there is the phenomenon of seeing double, most often experienced by drunks, but also by those of us who are afflicted (or blessed) by "lazy-eye". this is the source of reverse cross-eyes, where the pupils diverge: one eye does not get used, so it drifts.away.from the focus of the other. it does not stop seeing, but buddhi.Intellect stops attending to its reports. so there is no stereoscopic vision, no sign of solidity in the dRzya.Percept. U are seeing only with one eye;
the other has drifted away, and might as well be asleep. but with a little effort,
one can persuade the Intellect to see both eyes at the same time,
each from its counter-crossed viewpoint. but it requires particular attention to maintain the two views, and the lazy eye eventually goes back to sleep. who turns.off the light of Lazy-eye? who chooses Strongeye? who, with a little effort sees double? (I would say respectively buddhi.Intellect, chitta.Affection, and ahamkAra."I"dentity.)

* jaDa is a term that we will meet often. a block of wood is jaDa. so, metaphorically,
is a blockhead. the process of creation is described as a thickening that becomes solid (ghana becoming jaDa, like mist becoming rain). but note the other senses below:
*AS. I would translate jaDa as gross - like material as opposed to subtle ajaDa. The verse is saying that it has both these natures. It is subtle by being like Brahma due to its formative nature, and it is gross because it is dependent on its sensible nature (dRzya.AtmatA). The notions of the mind operate in the sensible world and so it is jaDa like the world.
*sv. The mind is sentient because it is based on consciousness; when viewed as something apart from the consciousness, it is inert and deluded.
*vwv.459/31. Know the mind to be dull as well as not full (i.e., not conscious as well as conscious) with an extensive form consisting of thought. It is conscious (or not dull) on account of its being of the form of the Ultimate Reality and unconscious (or dull) on account of its nature consisting of visible objects (imagined by it).
*vlm.3I. Know the mind to both active and inert (i.e. both at spirit and matter). It is vast owing to the vastness of its desires, and is lively on account of its spiritual nature of the great God; but becomes inert by its incorporation with material objects.

*vlm.34. It is said that the lifeless blocks, are without intelligence and perception; but every thing that bears a like relation to another, has its perception also like the other. • So says a spiritualistic philosopher: "Think you this earth of ours is a lifeless and insentient bulk, while the worm on her surface is in the enjoyment of life? No, the universe is not dead. This life-jiva, what is it but the pervading afflux of deific love and life, vivifying all nature, and sustaining the animal and vegetable world as well as the world of mind? These suns, systems, planets and satellites, are not mere mechanisms. The pulsations of a divine life throb in them all, and make them rich in the sense that they too are parts of the divine cosmos. Should it be objected that it proves too much; that it involves the identity of the vital principle of animals and vegetables, let us not shrink from the conclusion. The essential unity of all spirit and all life with this exuberant life from God, is a truth from which we need not recoil, even though it bring all animal and vegetable forms within the sweep of immortality." Epos Sargent.

citi itself. Why? Because you recognize the intrinsic chit in even the jaDa

form the understanding of existence and that is the cit part that you are
sensing. • When I wrote this, I almost meant to quote the famous "I think
therefore I am" (Rene Descartes). Thus, even in the gross and unreal ego,
there is a pointer to the cit behind the whole world. Thus, the "I"
in the perception is a pointer to the cit, even though it is cluttered with
many false perceptions. • VA. somehow this does not decipher at all :o((.

cit is known (as real), and inert ego arises. • *AS. Even all the grossness of

cit), for you recognize the cit-ness therein (cittvam ca vetsi tat). The cit
part (cidbhAga: ) is that part of perception (avabodhasya aMza: ) which arises

are you breaking the samAsa ahaMtA.ajaDatA-udaya: ? You seem to form ahaMtA.ajaDatA
as awareness of ahaMtA. I don't see how the quality of ajaDatA = not being
senseless, dense, stupefied be translated to mean the act of perceiving ahaMtA.
• .AS: Read the AB commentary. It says that verse 42 does say jaDe avabodha:
asti and goes on to say that verse 43 contrasts with cetane jaDabhAga: api
asti! • Even all the grossness of this (sarvam jADyam api asyA: ) is really
still the citi (citi: - the formative cit), for you recognize the cit-ness therein
(cittvam ca vetsi tat). The cit part (cidbhAga: ) is that part of perception
(avabodhasya aMza: ) which arises from the grossness of ego
(ahaMtAjaDatA-udaya: ). Thus, the "I" in the perception is a pointer
to the cit, even though it is cluttered with many false perceptions.

"I"dentity
in the perfect Thatness
is not in the least known to be
.
it's like the profusion of waves in a single water.
hence the essence of saMvid.Awareness is That
.
*AS. The concept of ego is not present in
the ultimate Brahman even slightly, just as separate waves are not property of
the water; that Brahman is pure consciousness.
*vlm.43. There is no error of egoism or personality in the transcendental
category of the divine soul; because it is the integrity of all consciousness,
as the sea is the aggregate of all its waves and waters. * The unity of all
phenomena was the dream of ancient philosophy. To reduce all this multiplicity
to a single principle, has been and continues to be the everrecurring problem.
To the question of a unity of substance the Greek science, repeatedly applied
itself; and so did the sophists of Persia and India. It was the craving for
unity, which led the white men of Asia, the ancient Aryan race, to the
conception of God as the one substance imminent in the universe. At first they
were polytheists, but with the progress of thought their number of gods
diminished, and became the authors of Veda. At last arrived to the conception
of a unity of forces, of a divine power as the ultimate substratum of things.
They regarded the beings of the world, as in effect, composed of two elements;
the one real and of a nature permanent and absolute, and the other relative,
flowing and variable and phenomenal; the one spirit and the other matter, and
both proceeding from an inseparable unity, a single substance. Ibid. According
to Vásishtha this single substance is the chit or divine intelligence, which
produces the Mind, which is conversant with matter.
*vlm.p.43 There is no error of egoism or personality in the transcendental category of the Divine Soul because it is the integrity of all consciousness, just as the sea is the collection of all its waves and waters.
*AS.Even all the grossness of this (sarvam
jADyam api asyA: ) is really still the citi (citi: - the formative cit), for
you recognize the cit-ness therein (cittvam ca vetsi tat). The cit part
(cidbhAga: ) is that part of perception (avabodhasya aMza: ) which arises from
the grossness of ego (ahaMtAjaDatA-udaya: ). Thus, the "I" in the
perception is a pointer to the cit, even though it is cluttered with many false
perceptions.
*vA. in highest truth even little of self-consciousness is not known, as
separatiom of waves etc (is not known) in the water, so is essence of
consciousness
*AS. The concept of ego is not present in
the ultimate Brahman even slightly, just as separate waves are not property of
the water; that Brahman is pure consciousness.
This may appear as a bit of contradiction to verse 42, but not really. The
individual ego is only a pointer, just as a wave points to the water that it is
based in!

*vlm.p.45 The term ego is inapplicable to the pure and simple internal soul which, being weakened by the gross idea of its ardent desire, takes the name of ego, just as thickened coldness is called by the name of frost.
*AS. Know that the term ultimate soul (antAtmapadam) does not have individuality as an applicable term (ahaMtApadam ) but it is totally pure (nirAmayam). One talks of the nature of cit (vidam) by individual ego (ahaMtAdi) only as one understands coldness in terms of snow. In other words, while snow may be a result of coldness, it is not to be identified with it, and the concept of coldness may not imply the snow (for there may be no moisture to form the snow).

The power of pure cit formulates the gross things (jADyam) - like imagining one's own death in a dream (svapne sva-maraNopamam). Being the essence of everything (sarvAtmatvAt), it produces all powers and does not become uniform (na sAmyatAm eti). Of course, this is what appears to happen during the formation and maintenance of the world. Only the power of the pure cit is doing all this, it does not bind the cit itself!

.
as for those living Aindavas,
they have passed from the state of images to the Brahmic state
.
thus too
as conscious feeling-states
we, thru affective Mind, have come to the Brahmic state
.
*vlm.19. As the living souls of the Aindavas were incorporated with Brahmaa
by their intense thought of him in them, (or by their mental absorption of themselves in him)
so also have we attained to Brahmaahood,
by means of our mental conception of that spiritual light and supreme intellect in ourselves.

There is not known.to.be a meaningful word for an inactive affectivity
in the process of Becoming
:
an undefinable Term is like a leafy vine in the Great Desert
.
*vwv. 1175. In the undefinable abode (or the Absolute), the wealth of meanings
of words such as inert and sentient states does not exist,
as leaves, creepers, etc. (do not exist) in a vast sandy desert.

let me tell you this, Muni

it can't be hurt by any punishment;

*vlm.p.1. The Sun continued: . My lord, therefore I say that the mind, like time, is indestructible by its nature, and the unavoidable curse of the sage could not alter its tenor. 2 Therefore it is not right for you, O great brahma, to destroy the ideal fabric of the air.drawn world of the sons of Indu. It is improper for great souls to put a check on others’ fancies.

*AS. Therefore (ata:), it is not appropriate (na yujyate) to destroy the creations of the sons of Indu (aindavAnAm sRSTikramANAm pravinAzanam) nor is it worthy (na ca yuktam) of great persons (mahAtmana:), O Brahman. The "na" is used twice, by the dehalI.dIpa.nyAya! (by the analogy of a lamp on a threshold illuminating both rooms).

U are seeing only with one eye;
the other has drifted away, and might as well be asleep. but with a little effort,
one can persuade the Intellect to see both eyes at the same time,
each from its counter.crossed viewpoint. but it requires particular attention to maintain the two views, and the lazy eye eventually goes back to sleep. who turns.off the light of Lazy.eye? who chooses Strongeye? who, with a little effort sees double?

is a blockhead. the process of creation is described as a thickening that becomes solid (ghana becoming jaDa, like mist becoming rain). but note the other senses below:
*AS. I would translate jaDa as gross . like material as opposed to subtle ajaDa. The verse is saying that it has both these natures. It is subtle by being like Brahma due to its formative nature, and it is gross because it is dependent on its sensible nature (dRzya.AtmatA). The notions of the mind operate in the sensible world and so it is jaDa like the world.
*sv. The mind is sentient because it is based on consciousness; when viewed as something apart from the consciousness, it is inert and deluded.
*vwv.459/31. Know the mind to be dull as well as not full (i.e., not conscious as well as conscious) with an extensive form consisting of thought. It is conscious (or not dull) on account of its being of the form of the Ultimate Reality and unconscious (or dull) on account of its nature consisting of visible objects (imagined by it).
*vlm.3I. Know the mind to both active and inert (i.e. both at spirit and matter). It is vast owing to the vastness of its desires, and is lively on account of its spiritual nature of the great God; but becomes inert by its incorporation with material objects.

*vlm.34. It is said that the lifeless blocks, are without intelligence and perception; but every thing that bears a like relation to another, has its perception also like the other. • So says a spiritualistic philosopher: "Think you this earth of ours is a lifeless and insentient bulk, while the worm on her surface is in the enjoyment of life? No, the universe is not dead. This life.jiva, what is it but the pervading afflux of deific love and life, vivifying all nature, and sustaining the animal and vegetable world as well as the world of mind? These suns, systems, planets and satellites, are not mere mechanisms. The pulsations of a divine life throb in them all, and make them rich in the sense that they too are parts of the divine cosmos. Should it be objected that it proves too much; that it involves the identity of the vital principle of animals and vegetables, let us not shrink from the conclusion. The essential unity of all spirit and all life with this exuberant life from God, is a truth from which we need not recoil, even though it bring all animal and vegetable forms within the sweep of immortality." Epos Sargent.

*vlm.40. Thus it is by intellection of itself as the other form, that the noumenal assumes the shape of the phenomenal world; and being indivisible in itself, it wanders through the labyrinth of errors with its other part of the mind.

itself. Why? Because you recognize the intrinsic chit in even the jaDa (tvam ca

understanding of existence and that is the cit part that you are sensing. •
When I wrote this, I almost meant to quote the famous "I think therefore I
am" (Rene Descartes). Thus, even in the gross and unreal ego, there is a
pointer to the cit behind the whole world. Thus, the "I" in the
perception is a pointer to the cit, even though it is cluttered with many false
perceptions. • VA. somehow this does not decipher at all :o((. Please help.
when cit is seen as all inert + conscious mind, then division of cit is known
(as real), and inert ego arises. • *AS. Even all the grossness of this (sarvam

conscious because of cit.part of perception?) How exactly are you breaking the

ahaMtA. I don't see how the quality of ajaDatA = not being senseless, dense,
stupefied be translated to mean the act of perceiving ahaMtA. • .AS: Read the
AB commentary. It says that verse 42 does say jaDe avabodha: asti and goes on
to say that verse 43 contrasts with cetane jaDabhAga: api asti! • Even all the
grossness of this (sarvam jADyam api asyA:) is really still the citi (citi: .

*AS. The concept of ego is not present in
the ultimate Brahman even slightly, just as separate waves are not property of
the water; that Brahman is pure consciousness.
*vlm.43. There is no error of egoism or personality in the transcendental
category of the divine soul; because it is the integrity of all consciousness,
as the sea is the aggregate of all its waves and waters. * The unity of all
phenomena was the dream of ancient philosophy. To reduce all this multiplicity
to a single principle, has been and continues to be the everrecurring problem.
To the question of a unity of substance the Greek science, repeatedly applied
itself; and so did the sophists of Persia and India. It was the craving for
unity, which led the white men of Asia, the ancient Aryan race, to the
conception of God as the one substance imminent in the universe. At first they
were polytheists, but with the progress of thought their number of gods
diminished, and became the authors of Veda. At last arrived to the conception
of a unity of forces, of a divine power as the ultimate substratum of things.
They regarded the beings of the world, as in effect, composed of two elements;
the one real and of a nature permanent and absolute, and the other relative,
flowing and variable and phenomenal; the one spirit and the other matter, and
both proceeding from an inseparable unity, a single substance. Ibid. According
to Vásishtha this single substance is the chit or divine intelligence, which
produces the Mind, which is conversant with matter.
*vlm.p.43 There is no error of egoism or personality in the transcendental category of the Divine Soul because it is the integrity of all consciousness, just as the sea is the collection of all its waves and waters.
*AS.Even all the grossness of this (sarvam
jADyam api asyA:) is really still the citi (citi: . the formative cit), for you
recognize the cit.ness therein (cittvam ca vetsi tat). The cit part (cidbhAga:)
is that part of perception (avabodhasya aMza:) which arises from the grossness
of ego (ahaMtAjaDatA.udaya:). Thus, the "I" in the perception is a
pointer to the cit, even though it is cluttered with many false perceptions.
*vA. in highest truth even little of self.consciousness is not known, as
separatiom of waves etc (is not known) in the water, so is essence of
consciousness
*AS. The concept of ego is not present in
the ultimate Brahman even slightly, just as separate waves are not property of
the water; that Brahman is pure consciousness.
This may appear as a bit of contradiction to verse 42, but not really. The
individual ego is only a pointer, just as a wave points to the water that it is
based in!

*vwv. When copper that is the mind is purified and has gone to the state of gold that is the highest spiritual knowledge, there arises spontaneous happiness. Of what use are pieces of stone in the form of the body?
*AS. When the impurities from the mind are
removed and when it becomes a pure substance, like gold after copper is taken
out; natural bliss results.
*vlm.49. The mind being cleansed of its darkness like the mirror of its dirt,
shows the golden hue of spiritual light, which is replete with real felicity,
and by far more blissful than what this earthly clod of body can ever yield.

*vlm.p.50 We should cleanse the mind that exists forever, rather than the body which is transient and non.existent, and which is as unreal as the trees living in the air, of which no one takes any notice.
*vlm.51. Those who are employed in the purification of their bodies, under the impression that the body also is called the AtmA or soul (in some Shaastra); are the atheistic charvakas, who are as silly goats among men.
*AS. an investigation is made and
purification carried out (yad vidyate zodhyate ca), its conclusion (tadbodha:)
is like that of searching for searching for space trees in water (ke ca kha.pAdapA:)
! Thus, using bodies/senses for the investigation is like searching for a non
existent thing in the wrong place! If the ignorance . avidyA connected with
bodies etc. i.e. the material world, were to be true, then it would be
appropriate to take them up (eSAm prati graha:) ... continued in verse 51:.
After that, another thought begins, and there I see construction ke... ye . and
these who space.tree body.ignorance takes for real, if this is taken up, by
calling it (the AtmA) a body (dehavAcitayA), by those who are entrenched in the
untruth (asatyaviniviSTAnAm, then these (ye) are the ignorant ones who preach
this are like goats among men. • "The cit part (cidbhAga:) is that part of
perception (avabodhasya
aMza:) which arises from the grossness of ego (ahaMtAjaDatA.udaya:). Thus, the
"I" in the perception is a pointer to the cit, even though it is
cluttered with many false perceptions." • By calling it (the AtmA) a body
(dehavAcitayA), by those who are entrenched in the untruth
(asatyaviniviSTAnAm). The ignorant ones who preach this are like goats among men. VLM
calls them silly goats. I take this to mean they follow old statements without
thinking/testing.
*vlm.p.51 Those employed purifying their bodies under the impression that
the body also is called the soul (atma) are the atheistic Carvakas who are like
silly goats among men.

*AS. Whatever this imaginative mind (supratibhA.Atma) formulates, it likewise becomes by having evolved with a sense of being a body (dehatayA uditAtma). Think that this is just an unreal body(deha: ayam na asti), and it is not I (na ca aham), thus (iti) understanding the true nature of yourself (svarUpam ekam vijJAnam avagamya), stay free of desires (niriccham Assva).
