PREFACE.

~क

The doctrine of Pessimism as evolved by Schopen-
hauer and developed by Hartmann created quite a
sensation in Europe. The novelty, the bold genera-
lizations, the closeness and vigour of ratiocination
with which it was set forth, endowed it with qualities
which could not but attract attention and claim
consideration. But, carefully analysed, it does not
appear to have any pretension to novelty or origi-
nality to which its admirers lay claim.

The doctrine of evil as inseparable from the world
is nearly as old as humanity. It was the dread of
evil that drove the primitive man to seek the shelter
of superhuman power, and laid the foundation of
religion. There would have been no religion if there
had been no dread of evil, here or hereafter. Nor
would philosophy have had its birth had not the neces-
sity arisen to discriminate between good and evil.
Morality, too, presupposes a differentiation between
that which is proper and that which is improper—of
@ consciousness, however vague and undefined, of
future reward and punishment. Doubtless the doctrine
assumes constant and unalloyed evil, and not a mix-
ture of good and evil; but in so doing it only places
the evil in the present condition, and transfers the

iv PREFACE.

good to a hereafter, in a hazy, cloudy, dubious,
undefined way, but does not absolutely deny it.

The preéminence of the unconscious Will is the
most important element of the doctrine; and it, too,
under the names of Freewill, Maya, Buddhi, and
the like, has occupied men’s mind and played its part
in philosophy from a pretty remote period of anti-
quity.

Then comes the repugnance to worldly attractions,
love, affection and joy ; and under the form of asceti-
cism it is almost as old as civilized man.

The denial of the existence of God is an assump-
tion of no modern date; it unquestionably preceded
the formation of human ideas about Divine Provi-
dence ; and the assumption about the objectification
of Will forms the corner-stone of the doctrine of
Patanjali.

It might be said that, if thus the leading tenets of
the Pessimist doctrine be old, their association into a
compact and complete system is not so, and that in
this respect it may well claim the full meed of praise
for its originality. This, however, cannot be con-
ceded. Even as are its tenets, so is it in its entirety
as a system. What Schopenhauer enunciated in
his ‘ World as Will and Idea’ (Die Welt als Wille
und Vorstellung) in 1819, and Hartmann worked
out in his ‘Philosophy of the Unconscious’ (Philo-
sophie der Unbewussten) in 1869, is no other than
the nihilist philosophy of Buddha put forth in
a modern European garb, or, as an able writer
puts it, a system “little more than Buddhism vul-

PREFACE. ष

garised.”’ It is the farthest from my wish to assert
that the two German philosophers have surreptitiously,
or deliberately, borrowed their system from the
Indians: it is almost certain that Schopenhauer at the
beginning of this century had no knowledge of any
Buddhist Philosophy, and Hartmann, working on the
model of his predecessor, had, probably, no occasion
to consult the texts of the Sunyavada system of the
Buddhists as accessible to him in meagre abstracts in
European languages. The similitude may be—nay,
most probably is—purely accidental, the result of
human mind set to thinking in a particular line of
ideas arriving at the same conclusion; but it exists,
and is as clear as possible, and that is all that is here
intended to be emphasized.

The system of S‘akya Buddha 18 a modification of
a more ancient and more fully developed doctrine—
that of Kapila, as known under the name of Sankhya.
Thoroughly logical in its scheme of ratiocination,
the Sankhya enunciates that there is no proof of
the existence of a Supreme Divinity, and therefore
leaves it entirely out of consideration in its scheme
of primal causation. Its words, as summarised in the
text book of the school, but which is obviously of a
much later date than Kapila, are, Is vardsiddheh:
‘‘It is not proved that there is a God.” (Sankhya,
Aph. I, 92.) The idea is more fully developed and
argued in a subsequent part of the work (Vide infra,
pp. 31f). S’akya Buddha, less logical but more bold,
adopted this idea in a positive form, instead of keep-
ing the question open by admitting only the want of

v1 PREFACE.

dialectic demonstration. Schopenhauer does the same
without any reserve, describing theism as “a tradi-
tion of the nursery.”

The next subject is Soul or the vitalizing and
conscious principle of life. Kapila’s theory recognises
its existence, assuming a separate soul for each living
being. Buddha did the same. These souls are un-
create and eternal, never coming to an end. Buddha
acknowledged and, indeed, made them the basis of his
system, but practically, though not in 80 many words,
he denied them absolute eternity, for his theory of
Nirvdna assigned them an ultimate and final goal
after many transmigrations in sunyatd, vacuity or
nihility. It may be that his Nirvana did not extend
to absolute nihility, for there is nothing authentic
and unquestionable in his sayings ; but his immediate
followers, who developed the Mahayana school,
announce it in unmistakable terms, and for the pur-
poses of the present comparison this is enough. The
German philosopher goes a step further, and insists
on the absolute negation of Soul. His words put in
English are, ‘there is no psyche;” but unable to
dispense with it altogether, he supplies its place by
an ‘unconscious will’? which plays the part of Soul.
Practically this amounts to admitting Soul, but
divesting it of its consciousness and eternity.

In the Sankhya system, the category next after
Soul is Pradhdna, or Nature, having inherent in it
the threefold qualities of goodness, foulness, and
darkness, or as the Sankhya-pravachana-bhdshya
defines it, ‘“‘the equilibrium of the three qualities,”’

PREFACE. Vil

(° triguna-sdmyam’). The terminology is archaic, but it
implies the sum-total of the laws and forces of nature,
which regulate the course of the phenomenal world.
Buddha availed himself of this category to the full, and
Schopenhauer does the same, using only modern terms
in conformity with the physical science of the day.

The next is Intellect. It is common to all the three
systems under notice, and alike unconscious in all.
The Sankhyas call it Mahat, the Buddhists Buddhi,
and Schopenhauer Will, “the Reality, the absolute
Existence, the Ultimate Fact, the universal and fun-
damental essence of all activities, both of the organic
and the inorganic world, the primordial thing whence
we and everything proceed.” Inthe Yoga system, the
term used is chittva, which, in the following pages,
has been rendered into ‘thinking principle ;’ but would
have been as well—nay more pointedly—expressed by
will.

Kapila assigned real substantiality to matter. What
the primitive Yogis thought about it we know not.
Patanjali is silent on the subject in his Yoga apho-
risms; but in his Mahdbhdshya he admits an absolute
reality of it. He raises the question by saying, yadi
tdvad gunasamudayo dravyam, “if you hold matter to
be the aggregate of qualities,” (IV, 1.) and then
refutes the theory, Buddha’s idea of Sunyata neces-
sitated the same theory in a more prominent manner.
He could not admit absolute reality to any thing, and
as the inevitable nihilistic consequence of his creed,
matter had to assume the character of a phantasmal
play of mental phenomenality—

Vili PREFACE.

‘‘__. A fleeting show
For man’s illusion given.”

The Vedanta took it up after him, Berkeley worked it
out in England in the early part of the last century,
and Schopenhauer has done the same in our own days.

As already stated the theory of evil—constant,
ever-present evil in everything mundane,—is common
to all the three schools. Kapila designed his system
with the express object of removing “the threefold
pain” which is inherent in existence (Aph. I). Bud-
dha’s dread of the ever-recurring pain of birth,
existence, decay, and death, drove him to the shelter
of nihility, and the Pessimists of our day look upon pain
as constant and inherent in worldly existence. The
Yogis, who represent a section of the Sankhyas, sum
up the fruit of worldly existence by the significant
remark, “to the discriminating all are verily painful.”
(Yoga, II, 15.) According to Hartmann “ the world
is so bad that it had better not exist, and that it is
steadily becoming worse.”’

Nor are the means devised for the removal of this
evil different. Perfect knowledge, attainable by hard,
unremitting study amidst the most rigorous asceticism
and self-mortification, and total renunciation of the
pleasures of the world, is the only remedy accessible
to man. Neither Kapila nor Buddha would have
any other, and Schopenhauer, after dwelling on the
miseries of existence, and showing that even suicide
was not enough to put a stop to them, asks, ^ Whence
then is deliverance to come?” and the answer given
is “In knowing that the world is radically and essen-
tially bad. Such knowledge leaves no ground for

PREFACE. 1x

that old affirmation of the Will to live; it leads to a
negation of Will, to a renunciation of desire, which,
completed by means of asceticism and mortification,
must attain that perfect freedom of Will, that true
Nirvdna in which there is no more Will, therefore
no longer an ideal presentation, or a real world.”

In so far the correspondence is as close as possible
in works set apart by an interval of considerably
over four and twenty centuries—between Bud-
dhism of the 6th century before Christ and the
Pessimism of our own times. <A learned writer
describes Pessimism as the “ goal of modern thought”
in Europe. If so, that “ goal’ was reached in India
over four and twenty centuries ago.

Nor should the limit be set there. It is im-
possible to believe that Sankhyaism, like Minerva,
issued forth in all its perfection at once. It is but
natural to suppose that many ontological and _ biolo-
gical questions, such as God, soul, mind, primary causa-
tion, &c., must have formed the theme of speculation
and enquiry from a long anterior period, to prepare
the Indian mind for the conception and reception
of so recondite a system as the Sankhya. Kapila
could not have conceived and brought it forth, had
not his predecessors discussed and made themselves
familiar with such philosophical ideas. There must
have existed many doctrines, many dogmas, many
theories to afford him the necessary materials to work
out his scheme. Even as Bacon’s Novum Organum
was not the spontaneous generation of a novel thought,
but the crystallization or solidification of ideas which

x PREFACE.

were extant at the time in a more or less undefined,
nebulous way, so was Kapila’s Sankhya. Various
phases of philosophic thought were well known and
current in his time, and his was the master mind
which put them together to create a complete system.
The bricks existed, and Kapila was the architect who
used them in constructing a novel edifice.

How long before the time of Kapila metaphysical
dogmas had currency among the Hindus we know
not for certain; but the remarkable hymn in the
Rig Veda which discusses whether entity or non-
entity existed before creation (X, 129) carries us
to a remote period of antiquity beyond which we
cannot speculate. The reference in the SA4ma Veda
to a Yati who condemned sacrifices, and whose
wealth was transferred to Bhrigu, is equally germane
to the point. According to the Aitareya Brahmana
some such Yatis were punished by being thrown
before jackals. In the A’ranyaka period of Vedic
history, these rationalistic speculations and metaphysi-
cal controversies were of frequent occurrence, and the
Upanishads have preserved for us the substance of
some of the orthodox speculations on the subject.
They afford us traces also of the heterodox dogmas
which they were intended tocombat. Kautsa was the
leader of one of the rationalistic schools, and he is
named by Yaska. Jabala was an atheist, and his name
occurs in the Upanishads. Panini alludes to atheists,
sceptics, fatalists, and revilers of the Vedas. It may
be taken for granted without any offence to reason
that these heterodox people did entertain many dog-

PREFACE. xi

mas in opposition to the received exposition of primal
causation and other recondite doctrines of the Hindu
faith. They could not have been heterodox if they
had not adverse theories to propound ; and they must
have been met by counter theories to keep up the
antagonism. One may go further and assume that
these disputes led to the development of adverse
schools of thought which have since been overthrown
by later developments. The earliest Vedic cultus
was purely ritualistic. It embraced prayers and
peace-offerings—prayers in set forms, and peace-
offerings in the form of sacrifices accompanied by
libations of spirituous liquors. Those who reviled
the Vedic religion opposed it principally on the
ground of the futility, cruelty and unmeaning cha-
racter of the offerings. The atheists, pure and simple,
denounced the whole system as false. This, however,
was a purely destructive course, and not calculated
to win the multitude in its favour. Mere negation
suggests the idea of the doctrine of Metrodorics, the
Epicurean, which had for its main object the stomach.
Society needed some check to vice by holding up a
threat of future retribution, and absolute negation of
divine providence and future life did not provide it.
Besides, a future state being admitted, a preparation
for it in the present state was felt a necessity, and a
large majority of the opponents, therefore, appealed to
self-torture and meditation for aid.

Meditation as a means of communion with the
Divinity was known long before the date of the
Sankhya. Indeed, in all ancient forms of religion,

11 PREFACE.

meditation occupies a prominent place as a religious
exercise. In the Rig Veda the Gayatri enjoins the
meditation of the divine light which vivifies the
solar luminary as the most sacred act of devotion, and
that meditation occurs in endless forms in the rituals
of all subsequent sects and systems, This medita-
tion is called Dhydna, the word used in the Gayatri
being the verb dhimahi “ may we meditate.” Now,
this Dhyana cannot be performed without fixing the
mind on one particular object after abstracting it from
worldly cares and enjoyments, and this fixation is
called Dhdrand, or steadfastness. The abstraction
necessarily implies some amount of asceticism and
austerity, and this is called in the Vedas Tapas. A
man must foreswear all worldly enjoyments before he
can fix his mind on one unworldly object, and the
fixation must take place before he can begin a medita-
tion. Austerity, therefore, forms the first step in the
process; fixation or steadfastness the second; and
meditation the third; and all these exercises have
enjoyed a halo of sanctity from a remote period
of antiquity. No Rishi could live without his her-
mitage ; none without performing Tapas; none with-
out steadfast devotion; none without his meditation.
These are the essential attributes of a Rishi. It
would be a contradiction in terms to suppose a Rishi
could be so, without them. They suggest the idea
of communion with something superhuman, and
create a feeling of mysterious awe and veneration in
the mind of the common herd. At first the object
of meditation was of course the Divinity in some form

PREFACE. 111

or other; but atheistic philosophers soon found it
practicable to dispense with that object, and they
converted the objective thought to a subjective one,
and thus produced the highest meditation of the
Sankhyas, a meditation in which the mind meditates
on itself, or, as the philosophers of this class express it,
on nothing. The next step was to dispense with the
eternity of matter, to reduce it to a phantasmal charac-
ter. The mind was all in all, and there was no necessity
for an eternal co-ordinate, and this is the dogma of the
Buddhists and the Vedantists. None of these, however,
dispensed with individual soul. That formed an integer
in all the leading systems of early Indian philosophy.
Nay, more, in order to provide for a future state of
retribution, it was necessary to develop or retain the
system of metempsychosis. It was seen that neither
virtue nor vice always brought on its deserts in this life,
and the necessity for a next life became unavoidable ;
and if the soul was to have a next corporeality of some
kind to bear the deserts, there was nothing to hinder the
transmigration many times. It may shock European
ideas of the present day to be told of metempsychosis ;
but between worldly life, purgatory, and eternal hell-
fire, or heaven on the one hand and metempsychosis on
the other, dispassionate and unsophisticated logic will
readily yield the palm to the latter. An English lady
was once shocked at the sight of a Hindu lady with
her nose bored for a nose-ring. She said, ^ how barba-
rous is this custom of yours, dear sister, of boring the
nose P” “TJ fail,” replied the Hindu, “ to perceive the
difference, Madam, between boring the two ears and

XIV PREFACE.

boring the nose.” The Hindu controversialist may
adopt this line of argument and ask, the matter not
being susceptible of positive proof without the aid of
revealed religion, “logically what is the difference
between three corporealities and a dozen or more ?”’
But, however that be, all the ancient leading schools
of India accepted metempsychosis, and the grand
object they had in view was to devise the means for
putting a stop to the ever-lengthening and never-
ending chain of transmigration. And so long that was
kept prominently before the masses, most of whom
keenly felt, as they do now, and will always do, what
Schelling calls ^“ that sadness which cleaves to all finite
life,” the system propounded, however otherwise dis-
cordant in doctrinal points, had a fair chance of success,
as a proselytising system, particularly if it were favour-
able to peace and welfare in this present existence.
Buddhism was peculiarly well-adapted for this
purpose. It was the most attractive in its moral
and social phases. No system of human religion
has propounded a more perfect course of morality,
humanity, mercy, and sympathy. The universal
benevolence it preached could not but exert a potent
influence on the mind of the people. At a time
when sacrifices of animals by hundreds were every-
day practices, and those sacrifices were often effected
by driving wooden spikes into the heart of writhing
victims, the dogma of total abstinence from all
sacrifices and uniform mercy to all creatures could
not but produce a marked revulsion of feeling against
the current religion, and to draw large numbers of

men to the standard of the new faith. The doctrines
of equality of man and of non-recognition of caste
also contributed very largely to recommend it to the
favour of those who had been for a long time ground
down by caste rules. The result was wholesale con-
versions of the lower and the middle classes of the
people in all parts of India—so much so as to make
Buddhism the leading religion of the country. The
intellectual classes, the men of leading and light, also
appreciated these moral and social advantages, and
were willing to accept them. They perceived, how-
ever, the worm in the flower, and were shocked by
the sight. The atheism which forms the basis of
Buddhist philosophy never obtruded itself on the
perception of the multitude. It was unknown to
them, and they cared not at all to understand its true
purport. But the intelligent few felt it, and wished
to avoid it. Even professed Buddhists could not
always tolerate it, and many were the attempts made
to gloss over it, or to supplant it in an insidious way
so as to divest the system of its atheism without injur-.
ing it in its constitution, The Ais’varika system of
the Buddhists was the outcome of one of these
attempts, and the Vedanta and the Yoga systems
with their various Gita, Tantric and Puranic modi-
fications represent the results of Hindu attempts at
reconciling the higher philosophy of Kapila and
Buddha with a theistic religion.

It is not my object here to enter into the vexed
question of the chronology of these different systems.
It would take more time and space than what are

Xvi PREFACE.

at my disposal now. It is necessary, however, to
state that in appealing to the Sankhya, I appeal to
the doctrine, and not to its text-books. There is
abundant evidence, both in Hindu and Buddhist works
of unquestionable antiquity and authenticity, of the
Sankhya and the Yoga systems having been current
before the time of Buddha. The most prominent
part of the exercise of those systems involved the
most rigorous self-mortification, and that mortification
was currently practised with the utmost rigour before
the time of Buddha. Buddha himself notices this.
According to the Lalita-Vistara :—

“While at Uruvilvé, Sakya called to mind all the different forms
of penances which people at his time were in the habit of submit-
ting to, and which they thought raised the mind above all carnality.
‘Here,’ he thought, ‘am I born in the Jambudvipa, among people
who have no prospect of intellectual redemption (adhimukts), crowd-
ed by Tirthikas with diverse wishes, and at a time when their
faculties are wriggling in the grasp of the crocodile of their earnal
wants. Stupid men, who seek to purify their persons by divers
modes of austerity and penance, and inculcate the same! Some of
them cannot make out their mantras. Some lick their hands. Some
are uncleanly. Some have no mantras. Some wander after different
sources. Some abstain from fish and flesh-meat. Some mind not
the annual duties. Some abstain from spirit and the water of
chaff. Some beg alms from one, three, five, or seven tribes. Some
indulge in tubers, fruits, mosses, kuga grass, leaves, cow’s dejecta,
frumenty, curds, clarified butter, molasses, and unbaked cakes. Some
wash the body of charioteers, parrot-flyers, and news-purveyors,
Some dwell in villages, or in woods for their livelihood. Some adore
cows, deer, horses, hogs, monkeys, or elephants. Seated at one
place in silence, with their legs bent under them, some attempt
greatness. Some speak to only one person, others to seven. Some
eat once in a day and night, some once on alternate days, and some

PREFACE. XVli

at intervals of four, five, or six days; some once in a fortnight,
performing a chdndrdyana. Some put on themselves the feathers
of vultures or owls, Some, seated on a board or a munjaé mat, wear
bark, kuga grass, valvaja grass (Eleusine Indica), or blankets of
camels’ hair, or of goat’s wool, or of hair, or hides. Some sleep
more or less in wet clothes Some sleep on ashes, gravel, stones,
boards, thorny grass, or pestles, with the face downwards, in a
hut or the bare ground. Some wear one, two, three, four, five,
six, or seven pieces of cloth ; others go naked, making no distinction
between fit and unfit places. Some have long hair, nails, beard, and
matted hair, and wear bark. Some live upon a single meal of a
mixture of sesamum and rice. Some smear themselves with ashes,
cinders from altars, dust, or clay. Some carry on their persons and
in their hands down, munja grass, hair, nails, raga, mud, or a
cocoanut-shell alms-bowl. Some drink hot water, or rice-water, or
fountain water, or water preserved in earthen jars. Some carry on
them cinders, metals, astringent things, three sticks, skulls, alins-
bowls, bones or swords, and by these means they hope to attain to
immortality, and pride themselves on their holiness. By inhaling
smoke or fire, by gazing at the sun, by performing the five fires,
resting on one foot, or with an arm perpetually uplifted, or moving
about 07 the knees, some attempt to accomplish their penance. Some
seek salvation by killing themselves by entering into a mass of lighted
chaff or charcoal, or by suppressing their breath, or by roasting one’s
self on (hot) stones, or by entering any fire or water, or ascending in
the air. The syllables “om,” “ vashat,” ^ svadhé,” svahd,’” as also,
blessings, hymns, lighting of the sacred fire, invocations, repetitions of
mystic mantras teaching of the Vedas (lit. mantras), or fancying the
image of adivinity in one’s mind, afford means of purification to many.
Some pride themselves on their saluting Brahma, Indra, Rudra, Visbyu,
Devi, Kumara, Matri, KatyAyani,Chandra, Aditya, Vaigravana, Varuga,
Vasava, Agvina, Naga, Yaksha, Gandharva, Asura, Garuda, Kinnara,
Mahoraga, Rakshasa, Preta, Bhita, Kushmanda, Parshada, Ganapati,
Devarshi, Brahmarshi, or Rajarshi. Some select some of them,
others resort to the earth, the water, heat, the air or the ether.
Mountains, rivers, fountains, tanks, lakes, long narrow sheets of water
(tadagas), oceans, vats, ponds, wells, trees, lotuses, herbs, creepers,

grasses, stumps, pastures, cremation grounds, courtyards, and bowers
afford asylums to others. Houses, columns, stones, pestles, swords,
bows, axes, arrows, spears, and tridents, are the objects of salutation
to some. In curd, butter, mustard, barley, garlands, darbha grass,
jewels, gold and silver, some seek their welfare. Thus do these
Tirthikas, dreading the horrors of mundane life, seek their shelter.
Some seek heaven and salvation in their offspring, and resolutely
apply to them. They all follow the wrong road; they fancy that
to be the true support which is untrue; they hold evil to be good,
and the impure-to be pure. I shall then commence that kind of
vow and penance by which all hostile sects shall be overpowered.
To persons deluded by works and sacrifices, I shall show the destruc-
tion of all works and sacrifices. To Devas, perceivable by meditation,
as also to those who become manifest in divers forms, 1 shall exhibit
a meditation by which they may be overpowered.”’—My Buddha-
Gayd, pp. 24, et seq. |

The meditations he practised were all in ac-
cord with the rules of the Yoga system, and even
their technical names were the same. These facts
demonstrate the antiquity of the Sankhya and the
Yoga doctrines; but this cannot be said of the
text-books of those systems as we have them before
us now. They are obviously of a later date than
Buddha, and this may safely be predicated of all the
six leading texts of Hindu Philosophy. The Sankhya
Sutra quotes the Vais’eshika by name in two places
(A. 1., 25 and VI, 35), and refutes the doctrine of the
Vedanta Satra. The Yoga Satra takes for granted
the twenty-five categories of the Sankhya as the
basis of its doctrine, and copies some of its aphorisms
almost verbatim. The Vais‘eshika Stitra recognises
the Nyaya as well as the Sankhya. The Nydya Sutra
refutes the doctrines of the Vedanta, and of the

~ PF

Sankhya. The 1102739 either directly or practically

PREFACE. xix

by the mode of its refutation of adverse doctrines
recognises the pre-existence of all the others, not
excepting Buddhism. It also quotes Badari, a teacher,
and B4darayana, probably a grandson of Badari, and
author of the Vedanta Sutras or later 21108788, as
also of a commentary on the Yoga Satra. The
Vedanta in its turn refutes adverse doctrines of all
the five, and thereby admits their pre-existence.
This state of facts can be reconciled only by
the supposition that the different dogmas and the
schools which cherished them existed for a long
time before the dogmas were written down in the
aphoristic form in which we have them now. Oral
transmission must have been the principal means of
their preservation for a long time. There might have
been also text-books before, but they were set aside
by the very complete systems which the new texts
produced, and in the new systems the refutation of
adverse opinions very naturally included all the theories
which were prevalent at the time when the books were
compiled, and not the theories only of the time when
the original dogmas were first promulgated. This is
also obvious in other ways. In the case of the Sankhya
Satra, though it is usually attributed to Kapila, one of
the mind-born sons of Brahma, we find it refers to an
“ancient teacher” (A’charya, A. V, 31), and to “vener-
able preceptors” (A. VI, 69). Sanandana and Pancha-
8111118. are cited by name (V, 32, and VI, 69). Kapila is
then said to have taught his doctrine to A’suri, who is
described both as a brother and a pupil of the teacher,
A’suri imparts it to Panchas‘ikha, who is, according

xx PREFACE.

to the Puranics, again a brother. This Panchas‘ikha,
again, according to the Mah4bharata, lived in the
time of Janaka, and taught the Sankhya doctrine to
that king of Mithila. Had Kapila written the Satra
he would never have described in it his younger
brother and pupil as an A’charya.

In the Vedanta Stitra, Badarfyana, the author, is
several times named in the third person (I, 3, 26;
I, 3, 33; III, 2, 41; III, 4,1, 8, 19; IV, 3, 15,
IV, 4, 7, 12). This is usually explained by the state-
ment that a pupil wrote down the teachings of the
saint. Colebrooke, arguing on these facts, came to
the conclusion that the text-books are much later
than the saints whose names they bear. Referring
to the Sankhya he says “the text of the Sankhya
philosophy, from which the sect of Buddha seems to
have borrowed its doctrines, is not the work of
Kapila himself, though vulgarly ascribed to him ; but
it purports to be composed by I’s'varakrishna,—and
he is stated to have received the doctrine mediately
from Kapila, through successive teachers, after its
publication by Panchas‘ikha who had been himself
instructed by A’suri, the pupil of Kapila.” (Essays,
I, p. 93). Professor Cowell accepts this opinion in its
entirety ; he says ^ The ७11८148, as we have them, cannot
be the original form of the doctrines of the several
schools. They are rather a recapitulation, at a certain
period, of a series of preceding developments, which
had gone on in the works of successive teachers. The
Sutras mutually refer to each other; thus, those of
the Sankhya school, which in itself I should consider

PREFACE. र]

one of the earliest, distinctly refer to Veddnta tenets.
They expressly mention the Vais eshika in I. 25, V. 85;
for the Nyaya cf. V, 27, 86, and for the Yoga I, 93.”
(Colebrooke’s Essays, I, 354.) This is also the opinion
at which I have arrived after a careful consideration of
the bearings of the question; in short, my conviction
is that the Sutras were written, like the Institutes of
Manu and many other Hindu works, long after the
date of their putative authors.

As regards the Yoga, the doctrine is described
to be as old as Brahma, and the text-book to be
the work of Patanjali, who, says the commentator,
“compiled the rules in the form of an institute for
the use of intelligent people anxious to study
them” (p. 4). That such is really the case, is obvi-
ous from the fact of the Yoga which Patanjali
inculcates being identically the same which the
Sankhya accepted as the only means of salvation.
It might be argued that the Sankhya adopted the
theory of the 25 principles, from the Yoga of
Patanjali, and did not lend it to him. But the argu-
ments against this theory are overwhelming. In
the first place had Patanjali initiated the theory of the
Tattvas he would have for certain defined them,and not
left them to be inferred. He is very careful in his
definitions, and he would never have left so vital an
element of his system to be inferred. But following
the Sankhya no necessity was felt by him for any
definition. It cannot be said that his Tattvas were
different from those of the Sankhyas, for that would
make the necessity for a definition even more

xxi PREFACE.

imperative. Secondly, the author of the Maha-
bhashya cannot possibly be proved to have lived
before Kapila, or his doctrine. The learned Professor
M. M. Kunte, in his “ Vicissitudes of Aryan Civili-
zation,’ has combated, with great tact and ability,
the arguments usually put forth to fix the date of
Patanjali; and it may be admitted that indivi-
dually each argument as put forth by Goldstiicker
and others admits of refutation, and I may add that
a long chain of weak arguments is not stronger than
any of its links. Still the coincidence of a number
of names of a given period is one which in Indian
history cannot be easily set aside as purely accidental.
Confining, however, one’s attention to the text-book
only, no one who has read them carefully can fail to
perceive that Patanjali has contented himself by
tacking a theistic appendage of no direct utility to a
positively atheistic model, without in any way blend-
ing the two ideas into any homogeneity or consistency.
Hence it is that the Hindus call it Sés'vara Sankhya,
or Sankhya cum deo, as opposed to the former which
is Niris'vara Sankhya, or Sankhya sine deo.

The cardinal difference between the two rests on
their theistic and atheistic belief, but as already stated,
it makes no difference in their systems. Isolation of
soul from thinking principle is the end sought in either
case, and meditation in Samadhi is the only means
available. The believer in the existence of the God-
head assumes that divine grace facilitates the end
sought, but he does not dispense with Samadhi, and
his belief, therefore, is of no material importance.

PREFACE. XX

‘In less momentous matters,” as noticed by Cole-
brooke, ^ they differ, not upon points of doctrine, but
in the degree in which the exterior exercises, or
abstruse reasoning and study, are weighed upon, as
requisite preparations of absorbed contemplation.
Patanjali’s Yoga-s‘dstra is occupied with devotional
exercise and mental abstraction, subduing body and
mind: Kapila is more engaged with investigation of
principles and reasoning upon them. One is more
mystic and fanatical. The other makes a nearer
approach to philosophical disquisition, however mis-
taken in its conclusions.” (Essays I, p. 265.)

And we have enough in these facts and reasons to
infer that the Yoga text-book is posterior to the San-
khya text-book, and that both the text-books are later
than Buddha; but that the doctrines of the two
schools are very old. Any how these are the imme-
diate ancient Hindu archetypes of the nihilist theory
of Buddha, and indirectly of the Pessimism of Scho-
penhauer and Hartmann.

The Yoga, moreover, is the archetype of another
modern doctrine, that of spiritualism with its occult
appendage. In this case the relation is direct and
more intimate. The eternity of soul is recognised by
both ; both look to a course of gradual progress which
has perfection for its goal; both admit the existence
of soul in higher and higher stages; both recognise
the possibility of man’s commanding departed souls to
come down, to become visible, and to hold converse
with him; both pretend by regulation of breath and
other exercises to attain occult powers of the most

XXIV PREFACE.

transcendental kind. The details and the rationale of
exercise may be different in minor points, and a few
of the dogmas such as the “ material reality” of soul
- according to the spiritualists, and its pure spirituality
according to the Yogis, may be apparently contradic-
tory; but substantially the two are as closely related
as two systems separated by a gap of five and twenty
centuries can well be. The cardinal theory, that
“the body is the prison of the soul for ordinary
mortals” but it is not so in the case of the adept, is
evidently the same in both. ^ We can see only what
comes before the windows of our body, we can take
cognizance of what is brought within its bars. The
adept has found the key of his prison, and can emerge
from it at pleasure. In other words, the adept can pro-
ject his soul out of his body to any place he pleases.”
The whole system in either case is based on this
doctrine, and even a cursory study of the 3rd chapter
of the work now presented to the public in an English
dress will, I believe, fully bear out this statement.
The name of the Yoga system as we now have it is
Yoganus'dsana, or ‘ the Institutes of the Yoga.’ This
name, however, is rarely used, the work being better
known as the Yoga-s'dstra or ‘the science of Yoga,’ or
Yoga-sutra, the ‘ Aphorisms of the Yoga.’ According
to the commentary, commonly assigned to Vyasa, one
name of the work would appear to be Sdukhya prava-
chana, or ‘an exposition of the Sankhya.’ The words
of the colophon are Pdétanjala-yoga-s'a'stre sdnkhya-
pravachane, which may be translated into, in Patan.
Jali’s science of the Yoga, the Sa’nkhhya pravachana.

PREFACE. xxv

Vyasa, however, if he be the author of the exegesis,
which I do not believe to bethe case, must have used
the term simply to imply that it is a text-book on the
Sankhya system, and not to indicate the specific name
of the work, for in his remarks on the first aphorism
he distinctly says, ‘the name of the work is Yogénus‘a-
sana,” ( Yogdanus'asanam nama s‘astram). Following
this exegesis Colebrooke says : “ the title of Sankhya-
pravachana seems a borrowed one; at least it is
common to several compositions. It appertains to
Patanjali’s Yoga-s‘dsira.” (Essays I, p. 244). In
short, Yoganus'dsana is the specific, and Sdnkhya-
pravachana the descriptive, name of the work. Any-
how it is obvious that the Yoga is recognised from
an early period as a work on Sankhya.

The Yoga text as we now have it comprises a total
of 194 short, succinct aphorisms, divided into four
chapters or quarters (pa'das). The first contains 51
aphorisms, devoted to an exposition of the nature and
character of meditation, and is entitled Samddhi-pada.
The second is called Sddhuna-pdda, or the quarter on
the exercise of meditation and its requirements, and
contains 55 aphorisms. The third is called Vibhiti-
pada, and treats of the various occult powers which
may be derived by the exercises enjoined in it. It is of
the same extent as the second. The name of the fourth
chapter is Kaivalya-pdda, and it gives an exposition of
the nature and character of the isolation or detachment
of soul from worldly ties, which is the object and
aim of the exercises and meditations recommended.
It is limited to 33 aphorisms.

XXVl PREFACE.

The work opens with a definition of the term
Yoga. It is derived from the root yuj, which means
both “ to join’ and “ to meditate.” Some accept the
first meaning, explaining it in the technical sense to
imply the joining of the mind to the object of
thought. Others prefer the second, but that makes
no material difference in the purport. The technical
meaning of the word as used in the text is a deri-
vative one. Instead of giving prominence to the join-
ing, it implies the detachment which that joining
occasions. The definition is, ‘‘the suppression of the
functions of the thinking principle.” This suppres-
sion, however, need not be absolute in order to make
the word applicable. It is used to imply all stages of
abstraction of the thinking principle from worldly
cares with a view to centre it in the peculiar medita-
tion which serves to effect that abstraction. The
word is of very ancient date. It occurs several times
in the Rig Veda, but not in the technical sense. In
the time of Buddha, six centuries before the era of
Christ, it had acquired its technical meaning to perfec-
tion, and as Buddha, according to the view of the case
set forth above, borrowed it from the followers of the
Sankhya school, it may safely be assumed that it dates
from long before the age of Buddha. In fact, the
Tapas of the Vedic Rishis got the more expressive
name of Yoga at a later period, and Kapila and his
followers gave it prominence in their system by
making it the sole means of salvation. Many other
works have since used it to indicate communion with
the divinity in some way or other, and the Bhagavad-

PREFACE. XXVil

९1४४ takes thirteen out of its eighteen chapters to be
each a treatise on a separate kind of Yoga. The
names are: 2, Sankhya Yoga; 3, Karma Yoga;
4, Jnana-karma Yoga; 5, Karma-sannyasa Yoga;
6, Dhyana Yoga; 8, Tarakabrahma Yoga; 9, Raja-
guhya Yoga; 10, Vibhuti Yoga; 12, Bhakti Yoga;
13, Kshetra-kshetrajna Yoga; 14, Gunatraya Yoga;
15, Purushottama Yoga; 18, Sannyasa Yoga. In fact,
every phase of devotion is described as a form of
Yoga. The Tantras have a great number of others,
and many variations of those named above, but they
need not be noticed here.

The definition of the text suggests immediately
the question, what are the functions that have to be
suppressed ? These must first be known before they
can be overcome. The author, therefore, proceeds to
describe them. They are said to be fivefold, including
right notion, misconception, fancy, sleep, and memory.
These, directly or indirectly, comprise all the functions
to which the thinking principle can possibly be
directed. The means of suppressing these functions
are next described. They include, (a) exercise, or
° effort constantly made to keep the thinking principle
in its functionless state,” (x111,) and (९), dispassion, or
‘the consciousness of being their subjugator on the
part of one who thirsts after neither perceptible nor
scriptural objects,” (xv). The details of these are
reserved for consideration in the next chapter.

The exercises and dispassion result in Yoga, of
which there are two kinds, a conscious and an un-
conscious one. The former is that which is attended

XXVill PREFACE.

by argumentation, deliberation, joy, and egoism or
self-consciousness ; the latter is devoid of such
attendants. As long as the thinking principle argues
what is good and what is bad; as long as there is
deliberation as to the nature of the object of thought ;
as long as a person engaged in meditation feels a
sense of joy; or as long as he retains a sense of
his own individuality, (self-consciousness), he is said
to be in a conscious state of meditation. This is,
in the technical language of the school, Savija-
samadhi or “seeded meditation,’ because there is
in it some nucleus on which the mind is centered.
When, by arduous and long-continued exercise, this
seed is lost, and the mind remains divested of all
thought, a mere state of consciousness without an
object, it becomes seedless, 2207404, or perfect, and this
is the summum bonum which the Yogi exerts to attain.
When this is attained, the bondage of the world, of
transmigration, is entirely severed, and the soul is
declared to be isolated or free.

The expedients aforesaid are always and impera-
tively necessary—nothing can be attained without
them; but their action can be expedited by another
means, and that 18 ^“ Devotion to God.’ This devo-
tion is absolute resignation of one’s* self to the
Divinity. Inthe language of the commentator, “ it 18
thorough worship of God. Without wishing for the
fruition of worldly enjoyments, the making over all
one’s actions to him, the preéminent guide.” This
devotion is the means by which the theism of the
current Hinduism is reconciled with the philosophy of

PREFACE. XXIX

the school. Kapila did not care for this reconciliation,
and his system, therefore, did not stand in need of a
Divine Providence; but his atheism being repulsive
to the thinking portion of mankind, Patanjali avails
himself of it to give a theistic character to his system.
It will be noticed, however, that he makes his Divi-
nity one of several means to an end, and not the end
sought. The God he invokes is defined to be “a parti-
cular soul which is untouched by affliction, works,
deserts, and desires,’ one who is existent, but not
the avowed Creator and -preserver of the universe.
His name is I’s vara or “ the ruler,” and that may
imply providence, but nothing is said on this subject.
In two successive aphorisms, He is described as one
“in whom the seed of the omniscient attains in-
finity,”’ (xxv,) and “ who is the instructor of even all
early ones, for, He is not defined by time (सरण).
The indicator of this Divinity is the syllable OM, called
Pranava, and it is by repeating it and reflecting on
its meaning that the different states of meditation
can be easily attained. The author could have
scarcely put God and his name to a more subordi-
nate position.

Turning now to the obstacles which stand in the
way of the Yogi in the satisfactory accomplishment of
his meditation, the author enumerates what they are,
and suggests the means of overcoming them. The
obstacles, or causes of distraction, are disease, langour,
doubt, carelessness, idleness, worldly-mindedness, mis-
taken notions, unattainment of any stage of abstrac-
tion, and instability in the stage obtained (A. xxx) ;

xxx PREFACE.

and these are attended by pain, distress, trembling, and
oppressive inspiration and expiration (xxxI). These
tend to make the thinking principle unsteady, or unfit
for meditation, and have, therefore, to be sedulously
overcome. The means for overcoming them are
various. The habit of concentrating the mind on one
particular principle is the most efficacious, (xxxII,) and
it is to be supplemented by cheerfulness, benevolence,
compassion, complacency, and indifference in regard
to happiness, grief, virtue, and vice (xxxi1). It
may be effected also by a system of regulation of
breath, called Prandydma, which is supposed to exert a
powerful influence in steadying the thinking principle,
and warding off disease and other obstacles (¢f. p. 41).
Although this regulation of breath is a necessary
element in all the earlier or lower forms of the Yoga,
one is specially called the Yoga of breathing, and
technically called Hatha-yoga, from the letters ha
and tha, meaning the sun and the moon, which are
the mystic names of inspiration and expiration. This
form is particularly esteemed for its efficacy in pro-
curing occult powers. When the habit of meditation
has considerably advanced, and the Yogi is able to
realize sensuous objects in his meditation, or when
the mind is thereby so illumined, it is of itself
sufficient to ward off tribulations. Meditation in the
passionlessness of accomplished Yogis might also effect
this (xxxviI). Reliance on dreams, or on the object
of one’s fancy, is, likewise, an efficacious remedy.
The author then enters into a more elaborate classi-
fication of the Yoga. The twofold division first

PREFACE. XXXxi

pointed out does not suffice fully to indicate the
various shades of difference which the seeded form
assumes under different circumstances, and to each
of these shades he assigns a different name, and defines
its nature. In course of this, he points out the
theory of the mind becoming the object it thinks upon
(xLI), in other words that intense thought creates
objects, or becomes objective. This is the basis on
which the occult powers described in a subsequent
chapter are founded. The seedless form is one and
simple, and it is the wltimatum sought by the Yoga.

The second chapter is devoted to the details of the
exercises necessary for the performance of the Yoga,
and is therefore called AKriyd-yoga or ^^ practical
Yoga.” In its earliest and simplest state practical
Yoga is accomplished by a strict observance of asceti-
cism, by the muttering of a mantra a great number
of times at stated periods every day, and by devotion
to God. The object of these observances is to
weaken afflictions and give firmness to meditation.
Afilictions arise from attachment to worldly affairs,
and asceticism is the best antidote for them, and
the practice of repeating a mantra for a long time
serves to steady the mind.

The reference to afflictions suggests the question,
what are they ? They are ignorance, egoism, desire,
aversion, and ardent attachment to life, or ‘the Will
to live’ as Hartmann designates it. Someof theseare
subtile, others gross, (111). The former are to be
counteracted by acting against their natural bent, (x)
and the latter by meditation, (x1),

इ १11 PREFACE.

The afflictions are described to be the root of all
evil. They give rise to works, and works leave be-
hind their stock of residua to be worked out ina
subsequent birth, and in that subsequent birth other
works are performed, and they leave their residua, and
so on, the chain is never brought to an end. For
instance, ignorance leads to the commission of a sin;
the retribution for that sin comes in the next existence;
while that desert is being borne in that existence
another sin is committed through ignorance; that
necessitates another birth for its retribution, and the
series never breaks. And what is true of ignorance is
equally so of the other afflictions. Nor does the rule
apply only to sins; it applies equally to virtuous deeds.
For instance, if instead of a sin a virtuous work be
performed, its deserts have to be enjoyed in another
existence, and the course proceeds exactly as in the
case of sin. In fact, every work, whether right or
wrong, has its apportioned desert, and it must be
borne in a corporeal existence, and the succession
of birth, decay, and death must, in the ordinary
course of things, recur over and over again without
a limit. The fruits may be joy or suffering according
as the cause is virtue or vice, but to the discrimi-
nating they are invariably painful, (xv). They are,
also inevitable, and must be borne. An act once
performed must bear its fruit, and in so far there is
no remedy. One may, however, avoid doing those
works which bear fruit, and thereby break the spell,
and the maxim is therefore laid down that only those
pains are avoidable which are not yet come, (XVI).

PREFACE. XXXiii

The question then arises, what should one do to
abstain from works, and avoid their consequences ?
and the object of the Yoga is to devise the means
through which the abstinence may be effected.

In order to explain the rationale of the course by
which the evil is to be brought to an end, the author
next enters into an explanation of the mutual relation
of Intellect and Soul. Intellect is called a spectacle,
and it is said “to be of the nature of illumination,
action, and rule; it is of the form of the elements
and the organs; it is for the purpose of experience
and emancipation,” (उणा). It exists solely for the
purpose of Soul, (xx1). Soul is called the spectator ;
“it is absolute sentience, and, though pure, still
directly beholds intellected ideas,” (xx). When
these two are in conjunction through ignorance
(and itis ignorance which brings them into conjunc-
tion) they produce life and its consequences, (XVII,)
or as the text puts it ^< the apprehension of the nature
of the contact, power, and the lordship of power,”
(उदा) 2. e., Soul thinks it is the experiencer and
Intellect thinks it 18 the experiencer. Now, when
the light of knowledge dispels the false impression
the conjunction is dissolved. Intellect ceases to
think that it is the experiencer, and Soul gives up
the idea of its experience, and the ignorance is
removed. In other words, the conjunction being
removed Soul is isolated, and there is a period
put to further birth and suffering. Now, igno-
rance being the sole cause of the conjunction,
the great object is to remove that ignorance, and

XXXIV PREFACE.

this is to be effected by discriminative knowledge,
or that which will rightly appreciate the true cha-
racter of the relation which exists between Soul and
Intellect, This knowledge then is what is to be
sought, and the means are now provided by which it
may be attained.

The knowledge in question passes through seven
stages before it becomes perfect (उरण). The first
stage is that in which a person feels that ^^ the know-
able has been known by me.” (2) He next feels that
“there is nothing remaining to be known.”’ (3) The
conviction then arises that ^‹ my afflictions are over-
come, and there is nothing for me to overcome,”
(4) This is followed by the belief that ^ discriminative
knowledge has been attained by me.” These four
suffice to effect what is technically called ‘ liberation
from work,” (Kdrya-vimukti), for when these have
been acquired there is no more impulse or wish left
to perform works. These are followed, in course of
progress, by three more successive convictions. These
are,—I1st “my intellect has accomplished its pur-
pose ;” 2nd, ‘‘the three qualities have finished their
dominion over me, and can no longer affect me;”
810, “‘my meditation has been identified with my
soul,” that is the Intellect has merged into the Soul.
These three are called ‘intellectual liberation”
(Chitta-vimukti). The last is called isolation (Kav-
valya), on the attainment of which the Soul is
believed to be perfectly liberated.

In order to bring on this consummation the Yogi
should apply himself to improve his understanding so

as to make it completely devoid of impurities. To
effect this improvement eight means are recommended,
and these are technically called 1, Restraint; 2,
Obligation; 3, Posture; 4, Regulation of birth;
5, Abstraction ; 6, Steadfastness ; 7, Contemplation ;
and, 8, Meditation (xx1x). Of these the first in-
cludes five negative acts, viz., abstention from (1)
slaughter, (2) falsehood, (8) theft, (4) incontinence,
and (5) avarice; and the second five positive acts,
namely, (1) purification, (2) contentment, (3) pe-
nance, (4) study, and (5) devotion tothe Lord. These
two classes of acts are called mahkdvratas, or acts of
primary asceticism. They are obligatory on all classes
of the community, whether householders or ascetics,
and none should neglect them. Slaughter is in se
sinful, and none should commit it, whether he be a
householder or ahermit. Falsehood and theft are sins
of the same gravity, and should therefore be shunned
by all. Incontinence &c., are likewise reprehensible,
and none should be guilty of them. Nor can a
virtuous and peaceful life be secured simply by these
restraints ; it is necessary that one should keep himself
free from filth, both material and moral; that he
should be contented with his lot and not rapine;
that he should submit to penance for his sins and
for curbing his passions; that he should study the
Vedas, and be devoted to the service of God. No
one can be a good citizen who does not practice
these restraints and obligations, and therefore they
are recommended to all classes of the community.
And if they are good and necessary for ordinary

XXXV1 PREFACE.

people, they must ipso facto be so for the Yogi,
who aspires to rise above the common herd. Nay,
to him they are most imperative, for none can prepare
himself for the Yoga who does not especially attend
to them, as the first step in his career. The advan-
tages of observing these restraints and obligations are
described at some length; but they call for no remark
here.

Restraint and obligation being thus common to
both householders and Yogis the third of the eight
means becomes the first special act of exercise to
which a Yogi has to apply himself; this is the
assumption of particular postures, which are con-
ducive to the fixation of the thinking principle to
any object to which it may be directed. No one
can settle himself down for meditation while walking,
or running, or doing something unconnected with
his main object, and some particular postures are,
therefore, deemed essential. The text contents itself
by saying that it should be firm and pleasant (xLv1),
and entail the least effort (xLvm); but it does not
describe any particular posture as the most bene-
ficial. Commentators, however, have supplied the
omission, and described a great number of them,
some of them most painful and difficult of assump-
tion, (€. pp. 109).

When the Yogi has assumed one of the prescribed
postures, he should begin the fourth exercise, the
regulation of his breath. This consists in drawing
the breath through one nostril; retaining the air for
some time in the chest; and then throwing it out

PREFACE. XXXVli

through another nostril. The details of this process
will be found on pp. 427.

This process of breathing should be followed by
the fifth exercise, the abstraction of the organs from
their ordinary natural functions. As long as they
are engaged in their own works, they do not allow
the thinking principle to settle down for the act
of meditation, and consequently prove obstruc-
tive. To overcome them, or to draw them away from
works, is an essential preliminary. When they are
abstracted, they merge into their primary cause, the
thinking principle, and cease to disturb it.

All these five acts of Restraint, Obligation, Posture,
Regulation of breath, and Abstraction are accessories
or necessary adjuncts to Yoga, for without them no
Yoga can be performed; but they form no essential
part of the Yoga itself. Even all the five existing
together would not constitute Yoga, though without
them as preliminaries no Yoga can be effectual.
These are, therefore, called ‘ practical Yoga,” or
‘** accessories to the Yoga,”’ but not Yoga. The last
three, on the other hand, are essential constituents of
the Yoga, and are therefore called «^ intimates” or anta-
rangas. These three include Steadfastness (Dhdrana),
Contemplation (Dhydna), and Meditation (Samadhi) ;
and the third chapter opens with a description of
these. ‘‘Steadfastness is the confinement of the
thinking principle to one place,” (L). Asan exercise,
it is of little moment to what object the thinking
principle is applied: so long the thinking principle
remains unswervingly attached to it, without for a

ॐ १४111 PREFACE.

moment thinking of} anything else, it is Steadfast-
ness. When the understanding is brought to bear
upon this fixation and the two act in unison the
result is Contemplation (11), 2 e., when the thinking
principle thinks intelligently and steadfastly on an
object it is Contemplation. Again when this con-
templation is so intense that it loses all idea of its
own identity, and enlightens solely one object, it is
Meditation or Samédhi. The definition given points
to something much more intense than what the
English word meditation ordinarily conveys ; it implies
a state of extacy or cataleptic trance when both the
body and the mind are dead to all external impres-
sions, and the thinking principle is completely drowned
in the special object of its thought, or in itself, but
as the degree of intensity is not fixed and is admitted
to vary considerably under different circumstances, I
have used the word meditation as the most convenient
and conveying the nearest idea of the mental act
indicated by the Sanskrit term. When these three
follow successively or are united, they have the
common name of Sayama. How this union is to be
effected, or how this Saiiyama is to be performed,
is nowhere described at length; but it may be directed
to diverse objects, internal and external, and, when
duly and thoroughly performed, results in the most
extraordinary occult powers.

A subject is the correlative of the three qualities
of tranquillity, enlivening and latency, and as each
quality becomes ascendant the subject varies; and
these variations may be produced by the power of

Saiiyama, apart from ordinary mundane causes.
Hence the efficacy of the Safiyama in producing
occult powers. Safiyama, however, should not be
applied indiscriminately to all purposes. The proper
rule is to follow the stages of perfection successively
attained by a Yogi, £. e., it should not be applied to
a subtile object, until it has been practised and per-
fected with regard to gross objects. In other words, it
should be practised step by step according to the
different stages into which the career of a Yogi is
divided. Unless this is done no fruition follows (v1).

The occult powers, called Siddhis, derivable by
the practice of the Sailyama are the most astounding
possible. By it one may know the past and the
future, the circumstances connected with his former
existences, as well as the day and hour of his death.
He may know what is in the mind of another person,
or the meaning of the cries of animals. He may
make himself or others invisible to bystanders, contract
friendship with whomsoever he likes, or attain other
superhuman powers. He may acquire a knowledge
of things that are ordinarily too subtile, or too remote,
for human observation, or so intercepted as not to be
visible. He can observe the details of regions situ-
ated far away from the earth ; of the stars and planets,
their dispositions and their motions. He can have
occular knowledge of spiritual phenomena. He may
know what is going on inside his body; subdue his
hunger and thirst ; or make his body so firm as none
can shake it. Itis possible for him, too, to make
departed spirits visible, and to converse with them.

xl PREFACE.

He can attain superhuman intuition, audition, taction,
Vision, gustation and olfaction. He may project his
own soul into another’s body, and then bring it back
into his own. He can travel with the quickness
of the mind through air or through water, and go
wheresoever he lists.

When most of these powers have been attained and
a Yogi is in a forward state for absolute perfection, the
gods envy his success, and try to divert him from his
onward course. They place temptations in his way in
the forms of handsome women, great wealth, and
other worldly objects of value, and thereby lead him
astray (LI). In this they play the part of Mara in the
Buddhist legends, and of Satan in the Bible. Great
care and determination are necessary to rise above such
temptations. According to the Tantras when temp-
tations fail, resort is had to frightful forms, tigers,
lions, serpents, ogres and the like, which threaten
instant destruction to the Yogi. But if they are met
by firm resolve, they are always ultimately overcome.

Great as are these and such like powers, of which
a great many are described in the text, they are
not the objects which a Yogi should seek. They are
the results of his meditations, and they indicate the
success he is gradually attaining, and the progress he
is making towards his goal ; but they are not that goal.
The highest power is, even like the lowest, a part of
the ‘“‘seeded’”’ or discriminative meditation. These
powers are, nevertheless, of value, as they enhance
the power of the understanding, and in their perfec-
tion result in the all-saving knowledge, tdrakjndna,

PREFACE. xli

which makes manifest the relation between the think-
ing principle and Soul, and brings on the “seedless
meditation.” They are thus of use in consummating
the isolation of Soul—the summum bonum which the
Yoga promises to its votaries.

The fourth chapter is devoted to a consideration of
such metaphysical topics as bear on the nature and
character of Isolation. It opens by saying that spe-
cial faculties may result from five different causes, (1).
Some of them are described to be due to birth;
such as the power of flying, or living in water, or
with suspended animation for protracted periods.
These are specific peculiarities of particular genera of
animals which may be acquired by being born in
such genera, and are not common to all living beings.
Others are due to herbs, such as the effect of drugs in
arresting sleep, hunger, or the like, or making the flesh
proof against heat, or poison, or cold. Others, again,
are due to certain incantations or mantras which are
universally believed by the Hindus to have very
extraordinary powers. Austerity or asceticism in the
same way is credited with the power of enabling people
to acquire special faculties. Of course, the tangible
faculties in this case are not faculties strictly so called,
but the effect of habit. And lastly, Samadhi is
believed to produce the same results, and these are
what have been described in the preceding chapter.
The first four causes do not concern the author, and,
therefore, no further notice is taken of them. The
last is intimately connected with the question at
issue, and great pains are taken to meet such objec-

tions as might be started against the theory of
Samadhi being the cause of special faculties. The
objections are assumed to proceed from opponents,
and the Satras supply the replies. In the second and
the third aphorisms, an opponent is made to deny caus-
ality to Samadhi, inasmuch as it has no influence on the
body, and bodily changes are known to have been
produced in this life. The explanation given is that
the materials of the body undergo change of their own
accord, and merit resulting from Samadhi subserves
only to remove all obstructions from their way. This
is illustrated by the example of the husbandman, who
removes the inequalities on the surface of a field in
order to lead water to where it is wanted, and the
water then flows of its own accord, or in obedience to
the laws of gravitation. This satisfies the opponent,
who thereupon, shifts his ground, and, admitting the
possibility of the materials changing by themselves,
raises the question as to how thinking principles, which —
are immaterial, can be so produced. Yogis pretend
that they can, each of them, animate a number of
bodies at the same time, and it is necessary that, for
such a purpose, each body should have a separate
thinking principle, and the questions raised are how is
it provided ? and how is the unity of the creating one
preserved ? The theory of spontaneous change in
materials cannot explain this, and the reply given
is that such thinking principles are emanations or
scintillations from the creating one, and are there-
fore subordinate to it, acting in accord with the will
of the creator, even as the different organs of the

PREFACE. xliii

body act in accordance with the will of the mind,
(11m1—Vv).

_ The possibility of Samadhi producing occult powers
being thus settled, the question next comes as to the
nature of those powers—are they of the same charac-
ter as those produced by other causes? or are they
different ? The reply is that they are different, (v1).
The faculties produced by the other causes are
intimately connected with former births; the resi-
dua of former births are the active principles which
animate them; whereas the faculties produced by
Samadhi have no such background. They are
spontaneous, and do not produce those after-conse-
quences which the others do.

. This leads to the classification of works leading to
residua into four groups. Some are described to be
white or meritorious; some are black or vicious ; some
are partly black and partly white; while others are
neither black nor white. The first three groups
belong to ordinary life, and leave behind residua ;
the last pertains to Yogis, and are not calculated to
leave any remnant behind, (vir).

The after-consequences of ordinary works are
two-fold, instinct, and kind, age and experience.
The theory is that every work, every sensation,
every form of experience leaves on the thinking prin.
ciple an impress of its own, and such impressions,
accumulating in course of a lifetime, become the
stock of residua which, though for the time being
latent, are susceptible of revival by proper stimulants
in subsequent existences. (4 p. 26—174). This

xliv PREFACE.

révival is Instinct, ४. e., instead of believing Instinct to
be spontaneous, self-evolved, intuitive reason, as Euro-
pean philosophers describe it, (cf. p. 175,) Yogis take
it to be the fruit of the remembrance of former experi-
ence, revived by particular circumstances. These resi-
dua are also the causes of rewards and punishments in
subsequent lives, and the rewards and punishments are
represented by kind, age and experience ; kind imply-
ing birth into higher or lower grades according to merit
or demerit; age the span of life in such existences,
which is prolonged or reduced according to one’s
deserts ; and experience sensations of pleasure or pain.
Confining his attention here to Instinct, the author
describes that the residua producing Instinct do not
revive invariably but according to circumstances,
even after breaks caused by dissimilar births, (प्या).
Nor do such breaks, produced by dissimilar births,
localities, or times lead to any breach in the relation of
cause and effect existing between residua and instinc-
tive manifestations, (Ix), inasmuch as the result mani-
fests itself invariably at the first favourable moment,
The theory of residua as above propounded is open
to the grave objection that it does not provide for
the manifestation of instinctive action at the first
birth when no residua can be predicated; but the
author obviates it by assuming eternity of desires and
consequently of the universe. That which is eternal can
have no beginning, and consequently there is no room
left for a first birth, (x). This involves a regressus
in infinitum, but, assuming matter and the universe to
be eternal, .it is not objectionable, or illogical. More-

over, the necessity of keeping God apart from
creation, renders the theory of eternity of the universe
unavoidable. Admit God to be the creator, the
necessity arises of making Him engage in work and
derive its fruit ; deny it, the universe must be accepted
as self-evolved, and the theory of nothing comes from
nothing not allowing of such an assumption, the author
is driven to the only alternative left, that of eternity.

The opponent who raised the first objection now
turns round and argues that if eternity be predicated
of desires, how can they be removed? and if they
are not removed the chain of transmigration will
ever lengthen and never come to anend, and no
redemption is possible, so that the performance of the
Yoga for the sake of liberation from the fetters of
repeated existence would be futile. To this the au-
thor replies by saying that the cause of desire is
ignorance of the true nature of things; its effect is
the body and its longings and their consequences ;
its asylum is the thinking principle; and its object
is worldly enjoyment, and if these can be made inert
or functionless, they would cease to produce their
fruits; and if they ceased there would be no root
left in re the individual in which they are made
functionless to produce new residua, and consequently
he would be free, (XI).

But, says the opponent, the thinking principle is
ever changing under diverse influences, it cannot be
in one existence what it was before, and consequently
there is no unity, and therefore the theory of oneness,
of omne ens est unwn, is lost. This argument is met

अणा PREFACE.

by the theory of archetypes. Every category is eternal,
all things are eternal, nothing is really created, or
absolutely destroyed, and what we call. creation or
destruction is simply change of attributes, and in the
case of the thinking principle it is nothing more.
When it changes its present condition, it reverts to its
former condition, or asumes a new one, but its unity
is never lost, (x11). This is the theory of the moder-
ate nominalists or conceptionalists, with their univer-
salia ad rem, universalia in re, and universalia post
rem. Change having been admitted above, the author
proceeds to account forit. It is produced by the three
qualities acting either on the subject, or on the object,
or on both, (उवा). The action, however, is not simul-
taneous, only one of the qualities is predominant at a
time, and therefore there is no diversity in the two,
(xiv). This leads to the question are sensibles the
causes of sensation ? or sensations the causes of sensi-
bles? The first idea is in accord with every-day
experience. Sensation usually takes place when
there is a sensible present to produce it. The rela-
tion of the two as cause and effect is, however, not
constant, and under different circumstances the same
sensible produces simultaneously very different sen-
sations, and the simultaneous production of different
effects by one cause is illogical and impossible. The
commentator illustrates this by appealing to the
different effects produced by a single handsome
Woman on amorous males, her rivals, and ascetics.
He might have gone further, and adverted to repre-
sentative sensations as. distinct from presentative

ones. In fact, as Professor Miiller, in his ‘ Elements
of Physiology’ (Baly’s Translation, p. 1059), has
observed, ^“ external agencies can give rise to no kind
of sensation which cannot also be produced by inter-
nal causes, exciting changes in the condition of our
-nerves.”’ Sensations, too, remain on the sensorium
after the sensibles producing them have been removed.
Nor can sensation be the cause of sensible, or, in
the language of the commentator, “if a thing were
an effect of the thinking principle, then there would
be nothing besides, when that thinking principle
-would be occupied with one particular thing.” It
cannot be said that the ideal presentation of things
would be created and maintained by other thinking
principles while one thinking principle is occupied
with a particular thing, for in that case many diverse
causes would be made to produce one effect. Applied
to the world the inference would be that one world
is the effect of many diverse causes, and, that not
being possible, the alternative would be that the
world is causeless. The solution afforded is that
there is no relation of cause and effect between the
two; they are eternal and move in different paths
(xv) ; and their action upon each other is regulated by
the triad of qualities, one or other of which predomi-
nates for the time and produce its effects. Patanjali
is exceedingly brief and enigmatical, but his object
is the refutation of the theory of ideal presentation
as opposed to real substantiality of matter, 2. e., of the
Vivartavdda doctrine of the Vedanta.
- .The preception above produced is still incomplete.

xI vill PREFACE.

The thinking principle may undergo modification and
assume the shape of the object presented to it, but
it cannot, being unconscious, intelligently perceive
‘what it sees, (xvi). The intelligent principle has
still to be infused into it, and this is done by Soul.
The reflection of the Soul acting on it makes it per-
ceive directly what is presented to it. It is accord-
ingly said that a thing is known or unknown accord-
ing as there is a reflection of the Soul, or the absence
of it, in the thinking principle, (xv).

An objection is now raised to the effect that under
the circumstances above stated, there being no stabi-
lity in the thinking principle, knowledge derived by
perception could not be constant. The reply given
is that since the real perceiver, the Soul, is
immutable, knowledge which depends on it must
necessarily be constant. Inasmuch, however, as the
thinking principle can undergo only one modification
at atime, and the Soul perceives only that modifica- ‡
tion, and not the outside world, there can be only one
perception at a time: two diverse ideas cannot arise
simultaneously, (XIX).

The objector is still unsatisfied. To obviate the
necessity of calling in the agency of Soul, he sug-
gests a multiplicity of thinking principles, saying let
one perception or thinking principle be perceived by
another. This, however, says the author, cannot be,
for the second perception would require a third, aud
so on, and that would lead to a regressus in infinitum.
There would, moreover, be no certainty, for in calling
one idea to mind a host would arise, and there would

___ _ च्न्तण्०्र |

PREFACE. xlix

be nothing to show which is the particular idea that
has been invoked, or is necessary to the elucidation
of the perception at hand.

There is yet another objection to urge. Accepting
that perception cannot be helped by one cognition
cognizing another, the opponent suggests that in life
persons always express the opinion of their knowing
things, and how can this take place unless the thinking
principle possessed self-illuminative powers? This
is met by saying that the thinking principle, assuming
the form of the immutable soul, attains the light of
intelligence, and is then able to understand its own
cognitions, (ङा) ; and the conclusion arrived at is that
when the thinking principle is modified on the one hand
by soul and on the other by objects of cognition, it is
sufficient for all purposes of understanding, (उत्पा).
The commentator here anticipates a number of other
objections, and disposes of them according to the
theory of the Yoga. (Cf. p. 197).

These explanations, however, are not enough. There
is yet a lingering suspicion that the thinking principle
has a will of its own, and this suspicion is developed
in the form of a question as to what motive the
thinking principle can have in engaging itself in its
various functions? Naturally inert, it can have no
object of its own, and in performing its functions
it must be acting without a motive, and as nothing
is done without a motive, the inference would be that
it has a will of its own, and it gratifies that will by
acting as it does. This suspicion is set at rest by the
remark that since it acts in conjunction with others,

1 PREFACE.

its object must be to subserve another’s purpose,
and that another is soul, (xx). The commentator
explains that such conjunct action for another’s
purpose without any consciousness on the part of the
actors is possible, as we see it in the organs of sense,
which act for the purposes of the mind without
knowing that they are doing so. The Sénkhya-karika
adduces the example of milk, an unintelligent sub-
stance, secreting for the nourishment of the calf. (Cf.
v.’s Lv1I to LX). The example of the cart carrying
` saffron for the use of man is also generally appealed
to.

Soul is described as the witness, spectator and
experiencer of the actions of nature. Conscious and
always present in the body, it cannot but witness what
takes place in it. This is the idea which Fichte
assigns to mind, when he says, it is, “as it were
an intelligent eye, placed in the central point of our
inward consciousness, surveying all that takes place
there,” (Morell, II, p. 95). But since soul has no
action or desire of any kind, and as it is, moreover,
eternal and immutable, how can it be said to have
a purpose of its own, which the thinking principle
has to subserve? ‘This is a crucial question, and the
answer given is practically an evasion. The premises
are admitted, but it is said that, inasmuch as it is a
shadow of the soul that sensitizes the thinking princi-
ple, and that shadow feels and observes, by indiscri-
minate use of language we call the soul to be the
experiencer and witness, (cf. p. 194). The service
done is, in the same way, service done to the shadow

and not to the reality, and the benefit derived gocs
to nature or Prakriti, which is entertained and ulti-
mately relieved of all sense of pain, and not to soul,
which is painless and ever free.

Patanjali now turns to the effect of the theory
and practice propounded. Whena person has duly
gone through the course of practice enjoined and ac-
quired the knowledge promised, all false notions that
he before had on the subject of life subside, (सश्र),
and his thinking principle is bowed down by the
weight of knowledge and commencing isolation, (xxv).
Worldly thoughts, however, still break out occasion-
ally, (xxv1), and these should be carefully repressed in
the same way in which afflictions and obstructions were
originally overcome, (¢f. II, उर्णा). When this
repression is effected, perfect knowledge rises in the
thinking principle, and entirely sweeps away all
remnants of afflictions and residua of former works,
(xxvuli—xxx). All obscurations are removed; the
triad of qualities in regard to the individual concerned
ceases from undergoing further change, (xxxI); and
the moment at last arrives when the qualities, having
retired to rest, become defunct, and the soul abides
solely in its own essence. This is isolation or salvation
which is the aim and object of the Yoga doctrine,
(xxx). This isolation is absolute and eternal, and
the soul in regard to which it has been attained
remains free for evermore

Following the order of the text the above sum-
mary does not afford a consecutive statement of the

lti PREFACE.

metaphysics, and inasmuch as the dissertations on
the Yoga now available in the English language are
brief, obscure, and not unoften misleading and in-
correct, it would not be amiss to attempt here a
categorical resumé. The cardinal dogmas are, as
already above stated, taken from the Sankhya system,
but there are differences, and the importance attached
to some of them, in their mutual codporation is
markedly distinetive. The leading tenets of the
Yogis are:

Ist. That there is a Supreme Godhead who is
purely spiritual, or all soul, perfectly free from afflic-
tions, works, deserts, and desires. His symbol is Om,
and He rewards those who are ardently devoted to
Him by facilitating their attainment of liberation ;
but He does not directly grant it, Nor is He the
futher, creator, or protector of the universe, with
which He is absolutely unconnected.

2nd. That there are countless individual souls
which animate living beings, and are eternal. They
are pure and immutable; but by their association
with the universe they become indirectly the experi-
encers of joys and sorrows, and assume innumerable
embodied forms in course of ever recurring metemp-
sy choses.

3rd. That the universe is uncreate and eternal.
It undergoes phenomenal changes, but, as a noumenon,
it is always the same. In its noumenal state it is
called Prakriti or nature ; it is always associated with
the three qualities or active forces called goodness,
foulness, and darkness. Matter as an integral part of

PREFACE, [111

the universe is, likewise, eternal, though subject to
modifications like the world. Strictly speaking the
modifications of matter produce the phenomenal world
which is composed of it.

4th. That next to soul there is a noumenon called
Chitta, or the thinking principle, or mind in its most
comprehensive sense. It is subject to the three qualities
aforesaid, and undergoes various modifications accord-
ing to the prevalence of one or other of those quali-
ties. It is essentially unconscious or unintelligent,
but it becomes conscious or intelligent by the reflec-
tion of, or association with, soul, which abides close
by it. It also receives through the organs of sense
shadows of external objects, and thereupon modifies
itself into the shapes of those objects. The conscious-
ness reflected on it makes it think that it is the
experiencer of all worldly joys and sorrows. In
reality, however, it is merely the spectacle of which
soul is by proxy (its shadow) the spectator. It is
closely allied to Buddhi or intellect of the Sankhya
system, but it plays a much more important part in the
system, than what Buddhi does, partaking as it does
the parts of both Prakriti and Buddhi in a prominent
degree, and also of self-consciousness. It occupies the
position of Will of the modern Pessimist system.

5th. That the functions of the thinking principle
are five-fold, including right notion, misconception,
fancy, sleep, and memory, and that these functions are
produced by the prevalence of one or other of the
three qualities.

6th. That, like the universe, all sensible objects

liv PREFACE.

have their eternal archetypes or noumena, which
undergo phenomenal changes, but are never absolutely
destroyed. When one object changes into another,
it is merely a modification of its form, and the
form assumed, when destroyed, passes on to some
other form, but it ultimately reverts to its noumenal
or primary state.

7th. That phenomena, as results of modifications
of noumena, are real and not phantasmal.

Sth. That sensibles are not the direct causes of
sensations, nor sensations the causes of sensibles ; but
that the thinking principle receives impressions of
sensibles under the influence of one or other of the
three qualities, and the result is regulated by that
influence. The influence extends both to sensations
and to sensibles.

9th. That the thinking principle being changeable,
constancy of knowledge is due to the immutability of
the soul, and that no perception can take place until
the thinking principle is made conscious by the soul.

10th. That impressions produced on the thinking
principle leave on it certain residua (avapro Of Aris-
totle) which are causes of intuitions, desires, new
births, and further experiences.

llth. That desires are the origin of pain in this
world.

12th. That the universe being eternal, desires are
likewise eternal, and it is needless therefore to en-
quire when residua first arose to create desires.

13th. That mundane existence is thus associated
with pain, and it is the duty of every one to rise
above that pain.

PREFACE. lv

14th. That the pain may be finally overcome or
removed only by withdrawing the thinking principle
from its natural functions.

15th. That the withdrawal in question can be
effected by constant and sedulous observance of cer-
tain prescribed restraints, obligations and steadfast
meditation.

16th. That in the course of the exercises above
referred to, the adept attains extraordinary occult
powers.

17th. That when that withdrawal is complete
and absolute, the soul is completely isolated from
the world, and that when that isolation is attained, it
is liberated from all liability to future transmigration.
And this is the isolation, liberation, emancipation, or
final beatitude which should be the great object and
aim of human existence.

The general impression regarding the nature of
the Yoga doctrine, has been hitherto exceedingly
unfavourable among Anglo-oriental scholars. It is
mystical, it is fanatical, it is dreadfully absurd, are
among the mildest charges brought against it. Mr.
Fitz-Edward Hall is so disgusted with its tenets that
in a fit of virtuous indignation he says, ^ As few of the .
twenty-eight Yoga works which have fallen under my
inspection are at present read, so, one may hope, few
will ever again be read, either in this country or by
curious enquirers in Europe. If weexclude the im-
mundities of the Zantras and of the Kama-s‘dstra,
Hindu thought was never more unworthily engaged
than in digesting into an economy the fanatical vagaries

of theocracy. Not less, it is observable, have the
Yogins of India transcended than they have anticipated
the quietistic delirations of Bonaventura, de Sales,
Saint Theresa, and Molinos,” (Contributions, p. X1).
Other writers, if not equally denunciative, are still
very severe in the tone of their criticisms. I believe
this is due principally to the subject not having
been carefully studied. The subject is dry—exceed-
ingly so—and the enigmatical form in which it is
presented in the text-books is not conducive to any
interest being created in its favour. Generally
speaking Indian scholars do not study it, and the
few ascetics and hermits who do seldom associate
with the world. Pandits, when called upon to ex-
plain, frequently, if not invariably, mix up the tenets
of Patanjali’s Yoga with those of the Tantras, the
Puranas, the Tantric 8711188, the Pancharatras, and
the Bhagavadgiti—works which have very dissimilar
and discordant tenets to inculcate. Some of the later
avowedly Yoga works are, moreover, exceedingly
allegorical and mystical in their descriptions, and
in them the purport of the instruction is buried
in a mass of absurdity. Practices, too, have been
inculcated in them which are certainly repulsive.
(Cf. pp. 103, 117). In judging, however, of the
nature of Patanjali’s doctrine it is unfair to associate
it with the vagaries of fanatical, deluded mendicants,
or with the modifications and adaptations which it
has undergone in the hands of the Tantrics and the
Puranics.

The tencts of Patanjali are all that concern the

critic, and the summary of them given above will
show to the unbiassed enquirer that they are closely
similar to those enunciated by some of the greatest
metaphysicians of ancient Greece. The similitude is
in some cases so close that I would not be surprised
to see some enterprising dialectician, intent upon
proving everything good in India to be of European
origin, demonstrate that the whole system has been
nefariously copied from Greek philosophers. The
tenets may not be the best of their kind—some of
them are unquestionably futile,—but they are cer-
tainly, not such philosophic desperadoes as to com-
mit outrages on the chastity of our thoughts, or so
vile as to make us join in the hope so fervently
expressed by Mr. Hall that the works which treat
of them may not again be read by the curious en-
quirer. Ifthe history of the human mind be a fit
subject for study, if it be desirable to compare the
progress of metaphysical knowledge among different
nationalities at different times in different places, if
the civilization of the Hindus be an object of enquiry,
we should rather earnestly desire that the works
should be thoroughly examined, and not neglected,
and that without in any way pledging ourselves as
their defenders. There is no reason to doubt that
such enquiry will not only be useful to history, but
reflect credit on the grasp of the intellect of the
ancient Indian sages who matured the doctrine.

It would take more space than what I have at my
disposal to go through all the tenets seriatim, and
show their relation to European theories, but it may

be generally observed that even the most faulty
dogmas do not, on sufficient examination, appear to
be so bad as they are represented to be by hasty and
adverse critics. The theory of isolation is certainly
very startling, but it was the logical outcome of the
conception of the absolute perfection of the Godhead
reacting on the Upanishad doctrine of resolution into
the Divine essence.* The Bhagavadgita thus sums
up the Upanishad idea :

‘He who all paths stops up, and in the heart

‘Confines the mind, shuts up the breath within

‘ The head, adopts a firm devotion, utters

‘The single syllable “ Om’’—the Soul Supreme,

‘And thinks of me, and goes, abandoning

‘The body thus, reaches the goal supreme.’

(Zelang's Translation, p. 52.)
This idea, however, involves the necessity of addi-
tions to, and abstractions from, Divine perfection.
The theory is that the human soul is specifically dis-
tinct from, though generically the same with, the
Divine one, and as the two dissimilars cannot melt
into one, they must always remain separate, and as
joy, felicity, bliss and the like imply activity and
enjoyment,—a concrete heaven inconsistent with the
theory of final rest,—the Yogis obviate all philosophic
and logical difficulties by contenting themselves with
isolation, without predicating it with joy or bliss.
The threefold division of the intellectual man

into purusha, chitta and ahankara is the counter

European authors. (Plato, Timeus, Aristotle, Poli-
tics.)

The theory of Prakriti, a noumenal absolute of the
phenomenal wor.d, or nature in the abstract, has been
a stumbling-block to many Europeans, and the allego-
rical way in which it is frequently described, is cer-
tainly often misleading. Even among Hindus it has
given rise to many frivolous and absurd stories. In the
main, however, it seems to accord very closely with
some of the latest European speculations on the sub-
ject. It is no other than the gus or plastic nature of
Cudworth, which has been designed to avoid fortuitous-
ness on the one hand and God’s constant interposition
on the other. Morell, in his ‘ History of modern
Philosophy’ (I, p. 208) commenting on one of the
latest German systems, that of Herbarts, says :.

‘The process by which the necessity of philosophy comes to be
felt is the following :— When we look round us upon the world in
which we live, our knowledge commences by a perception of the
various objects that present themselves on every hand to our view.
What we tmmediately perceive, however, is not actual essence, but
phenomena ; and after a short time, we discover that many of those
phenomena are unreal; that they do not pourtray. to us the actual
truth of things as they are; and that if we followed them implicitly,
we should soon be landed in the midst of error and contradiction.
For example, what we are immediately conscious of in coming into
contact with the external world, are such appearances as green, blue,
bitter, sour, extension, resistance, &c. These phenomena, upon re-
flection, we discover not to to be so many real independent exis-
tences, but properties inhering in certain substances, which we term
things. Again, when we examine further into these substances, we
discover that they are not real ultimate essences, but that they con-
sist of certain elements, by the combination of which they are
produced. What we term. the reality, therefore, is not the thing ae.

lx PREFACE.

a whole, but the elements of which it is composed. Thus, the
further we analyze, the further does the idea of reality recede back-
wards; but still it must always be somewhere, otherwise we should
be perceiving a nonentity. The last result of the analysis is the
conception of an absolutely simple element, which lies at the basis
of all phenomena in the material world, and which we view as the
essence that assumes the different properties which come before us in
sensation.’

Dr. Kay, in his remarks on this passage, observes—

‘ This “ essence that assumes the different properties which come
before us in sensation” —this which the European analyst arrives at as
“the last result of the analysis’—is what the Saikhya expositor,
proceeding, “more Indico,” synthetically, lays down as his first posi-
tion. This is Kapila’s mulaprakriti—the “root of all’’—‘ the
radical producer’’—that which, variously modified, constitutes all that
the ‘ soul’ takes cognizance of. This primordial essence—among the
synonymes for which, given in our text-book, are the ‘ undiscrete’
avyakta, the ‘indestructible’ akshara, that ‘in which all generated
effect 18 comprehended’ pradhdaaka, &c., is the ‘ absolute’ of German
speculation. The development of this principle, according to one of
Shelling’s views (noticed by Mr. Morell at p. 147, Vol. II) is ‘ not
the free and designed operation of intelligence, but rather a blind
impulse working, first unconsciously in the mind.”’ So, according to
Kapila, “ From Nature issues Mind, and thence self-consciousness.”’’
(Benares Magazine, Vol. III, pp. 284)

This Prakriti is believed to be unintelligent, and
yet it is described to be acting for another’s purpose,
and this has often been stigmatized as a specimen of
Indian absurdity. This theory, however, is exactly
what Cudworth entertains in regard to his plastic
nature, which, he says ‘doth never consult nor
deliberate ;’ ‘it goes on in one constant unrepeating
tenor from generation to generation; it acts artifi-
cially and for sake of ends, but itself understands

PREFACE. lxi

not the ends which it acts for.’ ‘It acts neither by
knowledge nor by animal fancy, neither electively
nor blindly, but must be concluded to act FATALLY,
magically, and sympathetically.’ (‘ True Intellectual
System of the Universe,’ B. I., Cap. ITI, 37.)

Again, Prakriti and necessarily matter are eternal,
says the Yogi, and in the sense in which he predicates
eternity, ४. e., to noumena as distinct from pheno-
mena, we have nothing more preposterous than the
“eternal verities’ of the European philosophers of
even our own times—verities which even the Godhead
cannot undo, such as the conception of a triangle
invariably including two right angles. To such
archetypical eternities few can object from a pure
philosophic standpoint, apart from revealed systems
of religion.

The two most repellent dogmas of the system are
its faith in metempsychosis and its theory about
occult powers, and even these have found defenders
in quarters where they were least expected ; and, care-
fully considered, they do not seem to be so absurd as
one would at first glance suppose.

Extravagant as are the ideas regarding the occult
powers, and purely imaginary as, at least, some of them
doubtless are, it is worthy of note that belief in such
powers was almost universal in the ancient world,
and well-authenticated reports are not wanting to show
that some of them were attainable. Mental prescience
has manifested itself on many occasions. Mesmeric
and other electric conditions of the body are now
objects of scientific research ; and they are well-known

lxii PREFACE.

to produce extraordinary phenomena. Many facts
have been brought to light which show that physical
causes may be, particularly in unsophisticated states of
society, easily mistaken for occult powers. Sir David
Brewster’s theory of the objective projection upon
visual organs of a subjectively concieved image may
account for a good many occurrences which strike the
mind of the masses with wonder, and appear as the
result of superhuman agency. Many psychological
conditions, which are known to arise and produce start-
ling results, but the true nature of which has not yet
been fully and scientifically examined and ascertained,
would account for some so-called occult occurrences.
But in the present state of our knowledge it is impos-
sible to separate the wheat from the tares—to discri-
minate between what powers were really attained or
attainable by Yogis and what they fancied they
would attain by persevering in their practices. Doubt-
less the pretensions of the European psychics of the
day are to a considerable extent false and fraudulent ;
still there are among them some good men and true, and
their researches carried on oncatholic, honest and scien-
tific principles will hereafter bear some good fruit, and
the time will then come to enquire how far the Yogis
had anticipated them. Inthe meanwhile all that need
be said is that the extravagance of some of their pre-
tensions should not make us spurn the Yogis as all
knaves and charlatans, and their psychical system
wholly falseand fatuous. Such a principle of action,
however necessary and prudent in shifting the
merits of a lawsuit, and even then under certain

PREFACE. lxill

restrictions, would be intolerable in history. If
some obviously false, or improbable, or unprovable,
statements in any author would justify our rejecting
the whole of his testimony there would be no ancient
author left whose testimony could be accepted, and
I know not how few of our modern authors would
escape the condemnation. No Yogi myself, nor any-
wise interested in the doctrine, all I feel in the cause
of truth is, that there should, for the present, be a
suspension of judgment, and the materials afforded
by the Yogis should be subjected to examination and
analysis.

As regards metempsychosis something has already
been said, (ante, p. xiii.) Itis a doctrine which even
Plato thought fit to adopt, and much might be said in
favour of it which cannot be readily disproved; but I
shall content myself here with a quotation.

Perhaps the ablest metaphysician who ever came to
India from England was the late Rev. Dr. Kay,
principal of the late Bishop’s College. His strong
Christian convictions did not by any means make him
an indulgent critic of adverse faiths, but in commen-
ting on the doctrine of metempsychosis as affording a
solution of the question of the origin of evil, he says :

‘The doctrine of the Metempsychosis is, in fact,
the Hindu theory on the great question of the “ ori-
gin of evil.” The theory may be thus stated. Evil
exists, and it is not to be supposed that evil befals
any one undeservedly. When, therefore, for exam-
ple, a new-born child, who has had no opportunity
of acting either rightly or wrongly, is found suffer-

lxiv PREFACE.

ing evil, it is inferred that the evil is the fruit of evil
deeds done in a former state of existence. If you
ask how the person became disposed to do evil in that
former state of existence, the answer is ready—it was
the consequence of evil deeds done in a state of
existence still anterior, and so on. You have only
now to apply the Newtonian principle—that what
is true at every assignable point short of the limit,
must be true at the limit—and then there is no
assignable point in the existence of evil in past
time at which point its existence cannot be accounted
for by the hypothesis of antecedent evil-doing; it
follows (argue the Hindus) that the existence of evil
is accounted for on this hypothesis; and further,
they contend, it is accountable on no other.

‘If one will take the pains thoroughly to grasp the
conception, and to view the matter, as a German
would say, from the same stand-punkt as the Hindu,
who, holding the past eternity of soul, denies that
the regressus in infinitum here involves any absur-
dity, he will probably acknowledge that the doctrine
of the metempsychosis, however false, is not to be
treated as a fiction of the poets, when we are arguing
with a Hindu. We try to make the Hindu give up
the tenet—and we do well :—but we shall also do
well to bear in mind that we are calling upon him
to give up, without an equivalent, what he has been
accustomed to regard as a complete solution of the
greatest mystery in the universe—short of the primal
mystery of ^ Being” itself. The Hindu’s explanation
we regard as a delusion, and we must tell him so—

PREFACE. lxv

but we must beware how we allow it to appear as if
we were provided with a substitute. The “ origin
of evil’ has not been revealed. The requirement
that we shall maintain our entire reliance on the good-
ness of God, in the absence of such revelation, is one
of the trials—rather it furnishes the substance of all
the trials—of our faith. This we have to teach—
but we have no equivalent solution of the mystery
to offer. On this point the words of Whately should
be treasured by every Missionary among the Hindus.
We quote from the Preface (p. 12) of his ‘ Essays on
some of the peculiarities of the Christian religion.’

‘The origin of evil, again, not a few are apt to speak of, as
explained and accounted for, at least in great part, by the Scripture-
accounts of ‘sin entering the world, and death by sin ;' whereas the
Scriptures leave us, with respect to the difficulty in question, just
where they find us, and are manifestly not designed to remove it.
He who professes to account for the existence of evil, by merely
tracing it up to the fret evil recorded as occurring, would have no
reason to deride the absurdity of an atheist, who should profess to
account for the origin of the human race, without having recourse
to a creator, by tracing them up to the erst pair.’’” (Benares Maga-
gine, III, pp. 286}

Elsewhere the same writer, speaking generally,
observes, ‘ it may somewhat tend to check the mischiev-
ous consequences attendant on bluntly regarding any
current and influential Hindu doctrine, that happens
not to accord with our accustomed notions, as being
self-evidently frivolous and effete, if it can be shown
that the conceptions involved in the doctrine are still
influential in directing the current of speculation
in Europe, in quarters where that current runs (or
is supposed to run) deepest.’ (Opus cit., pp. 283f.)

Ixvi PREFA CE,

To turn now to the life of Patanjali. The brief
notices to be met with of him in Sanskrit works are
so legendary and contradictory that little can be
made of them to subserve the cause of history. He
was a great scholar and unrivalled philologist of his
time, and the life of every great man was, in ancient
times, so encrusted with the supernatural that it is
difficult to remove the covering, and come to the
truthful core. Rev. J. Ward, citimg the Rudra-
yamala Tantra, the Vrihannandikes'vara Purana, and
the Padma Purana, describes him to ‘have been born
in the [lavrata Varsha, where his father Angira and
his mother Sati resided, and that, immediately on his
birth, he made known things past, present, and future.
He married Lolupa, whom he found on the north of
Sumeru, in the hollow of a “ Vata’ tree, and is said
to have lived as a mendicant to a great age. Being
insulted by the inhabitants of Bhota-bhandara, while
engaged in religious austerities, he reduced them to
ashes by fire from his mouth.’ (Hindus, II.)

There occurs in the Sankshepa-s'ankara-jaya of
Madhava A’charya a story, according to which the
Devas, on one occasion, repaired to Mahadeva, and be-
sought his aid in saving the world from the baneful
doctrines which Bauddhas and other heretics had widely
disseminated among men. The god vouchsafed to them
a kind reply, and it was arranged that certain chief divi-
nities would from time to time appear on earth as Jai- -
mini, Vydsa, Patanjali, and S’ankara, and, uprooting all
heresies, preserve the true religion from pollution. It
fell to the lot of Vishnu and S’ankarshana alias Ananta

PREFACE. xvi

to depute a portion of themselves to be born as Patan-
jali,* and Mahadeva himself appeared as S’ankara.t
The only value of this story for historical purposes is
the admission that Patanjali appeared on the earth
long after it had been overrun by the Buddhists.
Madhava A’charya of the 14th century is no autho-
rity for what happened sixteen hundred years
before him, but the tradition in his time was that
Patanjali was born long after Buddha in order to
inculcate theism, and this supports the opinion ex-
pressed on page xxiii to the effect that the Yoga doc-
trine as we have it in Patanjali’s work is of post
Buddhist origin. It is in favour, too, of the deduc-
tions made by Goldstiicker and others regarding the
age of Patanjali from casual historical allusions in
his great work, the Mahdbhashya, entirely under-
mining, as it does, the arguments.of Professor Kunte
as given in his ‘ Vicissitudes of Aryan civilization.’
It is true that the Yoga-sutra does not anywhere
refer to Buddhism, and it is not easy to accept the
theory of Professor Cowell that the relegation of
benevolence (maitri), which occupies a prominent
place in the Buddhist system, to an ancillary or
subordinate position in the Yoga is a direct allusion
to Buddhism, (Sarvadars ana-sangraha, p. 273,) for
benevolence as an element of religious observance is

Ixvili PREFACE.

common to all systems of religion, and reference
to it cannot be taken as an unmistakable test; but
apart from them, I believe, I have produced suffi-
cient evidence to show that Patanjali cannot reason-
ably be believed to have lived before Buddha. Ananta
is represented in the form of a many-hooded serpent,
and, as an emanation of that serpent, Patanjali is fre-
quently indicated by the homonym phani or ‘serpent,’
(of. p. 1).

_ The references given of Patanjali in his Maha-
bhashya entirely upsets the statements made in Mr.
Ward’s notice. Thesage describes himself as the
son of one Gonika, not Sati, and his place of birth was
the eastern country, whereas Ilavrata is said in the
Puranas to lie to the north of the Himdlaya. These
facts are thus given by Goldstiicker in his essay on
Panini:

‘Of the lineage of Patanjali all the knowledge I possess is, that
the name of his mother was Gontkd. It occurs in the last words
of Patanjali on a K4rik& to Pdnini. Of more importance, how-
ever, is the information he gives us of having resided temporarily
in Kdshmrr, for this circumstance throws some light on the inter-
est which certain kings of this country took in the preservation of
the great commentary.

‘His birthplace must have been situated in the east of India, for
he calls himself Gonardiya ; and this word is given by the Kagiké
in order to exemplify names of places in the East. Patanjali’s birth-
place had therefore the name of Gonarda. But that he is one of
the eastern grammarians is borne out also by other evidence.
Kaiyyata calls him on several occasions A’chdryadesiya. If we
interpreted this word according to P&nini’s rules V, 3, 67 and 68, it
would mean “an unaccomplished teacher ;’’ but as there is not the
slightest reason for assuming that Kaiyyata intended any irony or
blame when he applied this epithet to Patagjali, it is necessary to

PREFACE. lxix

render the word by the teacher “ who belongs to the country of the
Acharya.”’ Now, since Kaiyyata also distinctly contrasts dcharya
as the author of the Varttikas, with Achdryadesiya, the latter
epithet can only imply that Patanjali was a countryman of Katya.
yana. Katydyana, however, as Professor Weber has shown by very
good arguments, is one of the eastern school; Kaiyyata, therefore,
must have looked upon Patanjali also as belonging to it.

‘Another proof is afforded by a passage in the comment of Bhatto-
ji Dikshita on the Phit-sitras which I have quoted above. For
when this grammarian tells us that the eastern grammarians attri-
bute the accent in question of saka to Panini’s rule VI, 3, 78, we
find that it is Patanjali himself who gives us this information, and
without any intimation of his having obtained it from other author-
ities.’ (Goldstiicker’s Pdnins, p. 237.)

Meagre as these notes on the life of Patanjali are,
they are of unquestionable authority, and we must
rest content with them. In the ‘Indian Antiquary’
(TX, p. 308), Professor Max Miiller has a note on
the travels of I-tsing, a Chinese pilgrim, who visited
India at the close of the 7th century, and therein
mention is made of a Sanskrit grammatical work
under the name of Juni or Chuni. The learned pro-
fessor shows on very good arguments that the work
could be no other than the Mahabhashya, and then
very pertinently asks, ‘Is this (Juni) possibly a name
connected with Gonika, the mother of Patanjali, who
calls himself Gonik4putra, or with Gonarda, his sup-
posed birthplace, from which he takes the name of
Gonardiya ? Few who have studied the subject
would hesitate to respond in the affirmative to the
first question.

In a note on a Pali inscription from Bharhat, pub-
lished in the Proceedings of the Asiatic Society
of Bengal for March 1880, I have quoted a

lxx PREFACE.

great number of instances to show that in India
metronymics were used to indicate illegitimacy,
or the forsaking of a child by its father. If this
theory of mine be tenable, the use of Gonikaputra in
the case of Patanjali would suggest a bar sinister in
his scutcheon. Under that supposition it would be
futile to enquire about his genealogy. If Napoleon
said, ‘my genealogy begins with the battle of
Austerlitz,’ Patanjali might well appeal to his Maha-
bhdshya as the root of his family tree.* Professor
Weber, however, has been at some pains to find a
genealogical tree for him. In his ‘ History of Indian
Literature’ he has several remarks with reference to
Patanjali in ‘connection with the Vedic Kapya Pata-
mchala. He says, on page 187, ‘ Again, though
only in the Yajnavalkiya-kanda, we have mention of
a Kapya Patamchala of the country of the Madras
as particularly distinguished by his exertions in the
cause of Brdhmanical theology ; and in his name we
cannot but see a reference to Kapila and Patanjali,
the traditional founders of the Sankhya, and Yoga
systems.’ This is modified in a subsequent remark,
(p. 228,) in which it is said, ‘The name of Patan-
jali (we should expect Pat.t) is certainly somehow

® Professor Weber refers to a tradition which, he says, ‘ identi-
fies Pingala with Patanjali, the author of Mahdbhashya and the
Yoga-sttra,’ but he justly adds, it ‘ should answer for itself ; for
us there exists no cogent reason for accepting it.’ (‘ Hist. Indian
Literature,’ p. 231.)

¢ This grammatical correction has been suggested apparently
with a view to make Patanjali a derivative of Patamchala to prop
the theory of relationship.

PREFACE. lxxi

connected with that of the Patamchala Kapya of the
land of the Madras, who appears in the Yajnavalkiya-
kanda of the Satap. Br. It occurs again (see below
72. 737) as the name of the author of the Yoga-siitras.’
On page 236, we are told that, ‘ Kapila, again, can
hardly be unconnected with the Kapya Patamchala
whom we find mentioned in the Yajnavalkya-kanda
of the Vnhad A'ranyaka asa zealous representative
of the Brahmanical learning.’ This is repeated on
page 284,—‘ Kapya Patamchala, with whom Kapila
ought probably to be connected.’ It is difficult to
make out from these extracts a consistent account
of what the real or actual theory is. In the first
extract a single individual, Kapya Patamchala, is split
into two persons, Kapila and Patanjali, and that as
certainly as the phrase ‘ we cannot but see’ can imply.
In the second extract the Vedic personage is said to be
‘certainly’ connected with Patanjali only, and in the
third we are told that the same individual can ‘ hardly
be unconnected’ with Kapila. In the fourth the
phrase ‘can hardly be unconnected’ is replaced by
‘ought probably to be connected.’ No reason is
assigned for the first two conjectures, but for the 3rd
and the 4th the reason assigned is that Kapya Patam-
chala was ‘a zealous representative of the Brahmanical
learning.’ It happens, however, that Kapila was an
atheist, who repudiated the existence of the Godhead,
saying ‘there is no proof that such a being existed,’
and it is difficult to conceive how the relationship
should be established on the ground of Kapya having
been ‘a zealous representative of the Hindu learn-

lxxil PREFACE.

ing,’ unless we admit that Hindu learning consisted
in atheism. It is obvious that the learned professor
has been led away entirely by phonetic resemblance, un-
less he should urge, which is not at all likely, that it is
an ex cathedra opinion, without any reason to back it.
K&pya has the letters ¢ and p and so has Kapila, and
Patamchala sounds very like Patanjali, and therefore
he evidently concludes they are the same. This isa
line of argument, however, which I cannot help
thinking, is, to use the language of the learned
Professor, ‘ of a very curious kind.’ It reminds me, I
must frankly confess, the ratiocination of Fluellen by
which that jovial Welsh Captain proved the iden-
tity of Macedon and Monmouth. Had that flighty
logician been reminded in the present case of the
absence in Kapya of the letter ए of Kapila, and of 7 of
Patanjaliin Patamchala, I can easily conceive how he
would have completely dumb-foundered his antagonist
with the pithy remark : ‘ Why, I pray you, is not pig
great? the pig, or the great, or the mighty, or the huge,
or the magnanimous, are all one reckonings, save the
phrase is a little variations.’ I have nothing to show
that Patanjali was not connected with Kapya by the
father’s or the mother’s or some other side, in family
or race, but I firmly hold that we have at present no
proof worth the name in support of the conjecture.
The son of a Brahman priest, and devoted to literary
studies and ascetic practices from early life, Patanjali
had little to do which could afford incidents fit for
historical record, and it is not remarkable, therefore,
that we have no account left of his career. He was

doubtless married and probably the father of a family,
but we know nothing about those points. The only
memorials of his life are his literary works,—his great
eommentary on the grammar of Panini and the Yoga
8018. It isimpossible to speak in too high terms of
the first. Itis the noblest monument of profound
erudition, of keen critical acumen, of unrivalled philo-
logical perception, which has been left to us by any
ancient scholar in any part of the world, and well may
` the Hindus be proud of the heritage that has been
bequeathed to them by their renowned ancestor. The
second forms the theme of this essay. There is an
A'ryyda-panchésdti on the Vaishnava theory of the
relation between soul and nature which is also ascribed
to him. The work has been published in the Benares
‘Pandit,’ No. 50. He wrote also a work on medicine,
but it is no longer extant. It would seem that he
was, likewise, the author of a treatise on grammatical
desiderata under the title of Zshtis, and also certain
supplementary notes on the rules of Sanskrit gram-
mar (Vartikas), but these exist now only in the form
of quotations in the Mahdbhishya. The manner in
which they are cited iu the ‘ great commentary’ sug-

gests the idea that at one time they had separate

existences, but they are not met with now as a

separate work.

To turn now to the Bibliography of the Yoga
doctrine. The leading text is, as already stated, the
Yogdnusdsana, but its different topics have been
elaborated and expounded in a great number of sub-
sequent treatises, and its literature is now represented

by a large mass of writings. In 1859, Mr. Hall, in
his ‘Contributions towards an Index to the Biblio-
graphy of the Indian Philosophical Systems,’ collected
the names of 28 separate works. But recent re-
searches carried on under the auspices of the Govern-
ment of India enable me now to put in the Appendix
ॐ list including no less than 150 names. It is pro-
bable that further researches will bring to light the
texts of several other works. It must be admitted,
however, that while Mr. Hall’s list was compiled by
a single individual after himself examining all the
Mss. named, thereby obviating all risks of error,
mine is a compilation from meagre reports, and it
is likely, therefore, that there will be found in it.
mistakes of diverse kinds. Sanskrit works have many
aliases, and it is possible that in some cases—probably
very few—of works unknown to, and unseen by, me
I have recorded the same work under two or three
names. I have included, too, afew works which treat
of varieties of the Yoga, the Tantric and Puranic
forms of it, and not confined myself solely to the
doctrine of Patanjali. The differences in some cases
are so slight, that it was not possible for me, without
carefully reading the works, to mark the distinctions.
On the whole, however, I believe the new list will be
found useful.

In preparing my list I have followed an alphabe-
tical arrangement, a chronological one with anything
like accuracy not being practicable in the present state
of our information on the subject. Ifthe Yoga-s'dstra-
sutra-patha, attributed to Yajnavalkya, be really his, it

is the oldest treatise known on the Yoga doctrine.
Yajnavalkya lived long before Patanjali, and the
Bhashya especially cites his name to prove that the
Yoga doctrine was current from a much anterior
period than the Yoga-sttra, which was compiled fer
the benefit of novices; but as I have not yet seen it,
I can say nothing on the subject. Adverting to the
work, Mr. Hall says, ‘It is alleged that they (the
aphorisms of Yajnavalkya) were noted down by
Baudhayana, as they were orally delivered by S’ukra
to Yajnavalkya. Hence they are ascribed to S‘ukra,
who here has the epithet of Mahakavi. This work
possibly deserves a closer examination than I can
at present give it: but, it is, I suspect, of compara-
tively recent origin, and of little worth in any point
of view.’ (Contributions, p. 18.)

Passing it over for the present I come to the work
of Patanjali, the Yoga-sutra alias the Yoganus'ésana or
the Sénkhya-pravachana. It has the benefit of
a host of commentaries, explaining its tenets from
different standpoints. The most ancient of these
commentaries is generally believed to be the one
which is known under the different names of Yoga-
bhdshya, Pétanjala-bhashya, and Sdnkhya-prava-
chana-bhdshya. It is held in high estimation by the
Pandits of this country. It has the advantage,
too, of two exegeses by eminent scholiasts, one
by Vachaspati Mis‘ra, and the other by Vijndna
Bhikshu. It labours, however, under the disadvan-
tage of being of doubtful authenticity as regards the
name of its author. It has been twice printed, once

at Benares, edited by Bhairavadatta Dvived{, and once
at Calcutta, along with the gloss of Vachaspati M.s'ra,
edited by Pandit Jivananda Vidyasagara, in 1874
(Samvat 1929.) I have also seen upwards of a dozen
Mss. of it of different dates; but in the colophon of
none of these have I met with the author’s name.
This is a remarkable omission, inasmuch as it is rarely
that the author’s name, where known, is dropped out
from the colophon of a Sanskrit MS. The tradition
is pretty common and old that Vyasa, the digester
of the Vedas and the author of the Mahabharata,
is the author of it. This tradition has been gener-
ally accepted by European writers, and it has
the support of the two well-known and respectable
exegesists named above. Vachaspati Mis’ra in his
gloss (¢¢ké) on the commentary (bhdshya) says,
“Saluting the saint Patanjali, I attempt a short,
clear exposition (vyékhyé), pregnant with meaning,
on the commentary expounded by Veda-vydsa.’’*
The authority, however, of this writer is not, in matters
connected with historical facts of olden times, of much
weight. There were two writers of this name. One
of them was a legist, and, according to the colophon of
his S’udrdchara-chintémani, court Pandit of Maharaja
Harinérayana, of Mithila, and Harin&r4yana lived in
the middle of the 16th century. The other lived
between the 10th and the 12th centuries, and com-
mented both on the Yoga and the S’ankhya texts, as
well as on the Vedanta-stitras. Adverting to him

Mr. Hall says, ‘ Vachaspati’s exact age has not yet
been discovered. But he is mentioned, as are Udayana
and Prasastapada, in the Nydyasdra-vichdra of Bhatta
Raghava, which was written in the S‘aka year 1174
or A. D. 1252; and he quotes from Bhoja, who was

igning in A. D. 1042.’* (Sdnkhya-sdra, p. 40.)

Vijnana Bhikshu dates from a much later time,
According to Mr. Hall, ‘in all probability, Vijnana
lived in the sixteenth or seventeenth century. There
is some slight ground, however, for carrying him
back still further. His nationality is unknown; and
so is his civil appellation even ; for Vijnana Bhikshu
is, without question, the style of a devotee.’ (Sdn-
khya-séra, pp. 37/.)

He continues, ‘In the Prayogaratna, a work on the
sixteen sacraments, by Nard&yana Bhatta, son of Ra-
mes’vara Bhatta, its author says, that he was assisted,

* This date is incorrect. It refers to the last Bhoja, where-
as the Bhoja quoted must be the elder one, and elsewhere construc-
tively admitted to be so by Mr. Hall himself. In the Preface to
his ‘ Contributions towards an Index to the Bibliography of the
Indian Philosophical Systems,’ he observes, ‘that two Bhojas have
ruled over part of Central India, and that the earlier, whatever was
the case with the later, was interested in literature, I have elsewhere
shown conclusively. The Bhoja who reigned in the middle of the
eleventh century very likely entertained learned men at his court;
and the astrological compilation known as the Rdjamdrtanda, and
thus called in honour of him, may have been indebted, for its name, to
the suggestion of the Yoga work, so entitled, written in the time of
his homonymous antecessor. At any rate he came long after the
date of the Sarasvatikanthdbharana ; and we are nowhere told that
the Bhoja to whom it is attributed bore the epithet of Ranarafiga-
malla.’ (Contributions, p. viii.)

lxxviil PREFACE.

in preparing it, by Ananta Dfkshita, son of Vis’va-
natha Dikshita. The father of one of Vijnana’s dis-
ciples, Bhava-ganes’a Dikshita, was Bhava4-vis’vanatha
Dikshita; and, if the latter was one with Vis vandtha
Dikshita, and if Bhava-ganes’a Dfkshita was brother
of Ananta Dikshita, we are enabled to form a pretty
correct estimate as to the time of Vijnana Bhikshu.
For Narayana Bhatta’s youngest brother’s second son,
Raghunatha Bhatta, dates his Kala-tattva-vivechana
in Samvat 1677 or A. D. 1620: Vijnana may be
placed fifty or sixty years earlier.’ But whatever
the times of Vijnana Bhikshu and Vachaspati Mis’ra,
it is futile to expect from such authors any precision
as to the identity of a person who lived many cen-
turies before them.

The name Vyasa may be right enough, but there is
nothing whatever to show that this Vyasa was the
same with the digester of the Vedas and the author of
the Mahabharata. Inthe Mahabharata every epigraph
gives the name of Vyasa, and there is no reason why
it should be omitted in the commentary. Then Vyasa
lived at a remote period of antiquity, in the begin-
ning of the Kali Yuga according to Indian belief,
and his classification and division of the Vedas existed
long before the time of Patanjali, for we have un-
mistakable proofs of the existence of the classification
in Panini, Yaska, the Pratis’4khyas, and other works of
a much earlier date than that of the Yoga aphorisms,
and it is impossible to reconcile the idea that he
should be the author of an exegesis which could not
have had a raison d’étre before the Yoga-sutra was

PREFACE. Ixxix

composed in the 2nd or 3rd century before the Chris-
tianera. That exegesis quotes, too, authorities which
are of a more recent date than that of Vyasa. The
evidence of style is often a suspicious one, but no one
who has any knowledge of the Sanskrit language will
for a moment think it possible that he who wrote the
Mahabharata could be the author of the Bhashya under
notice. Compared with the works of leading scholiasts,
the Bhashya appears to be the production of a third
class writer. It certainly cannot be compared with
the ‘great commentary’ of Patanjali, or with the
equally renowned exegesis of S’ankara on the Vedanta
aphorisms, or with the commentary of Sabara 8587101
on the Mimaisa ; and, whatever his age, Vyasa was by
the unanimous testimony of the Hindus a far superior
author and scholar to Patanjali, or Sabara, or S‘ankara.
Fairly good though it be, there is a looseness, an inde-
cision, a want of logical precision, in the Bhashya which
are incompatible with the universal estimate of Vyasa’s
learning and scholarship. Bhojadeva treats it with
withering sarcasam. Without naming it, but obviously
aiming at it, he says, ‘all commentators are perverters
of the meaning of their authors; they avoid those
parts which are most difficult to understand, by say-
ing that the meaning there is obvious; they dilate
upon those parts with useless compound terms where
the meaning is plain; they confound their hearers
by misplaced and inappropriate dissertations without
number,’ (p. 2). It may be that Bhoja had to justify
his attempt at a new commentary by throwing dis-
credit on his predecessors, but his remarks are not al-

lxxx PREFACE.

together unauthorised. The invocation at the begin-
ning of the Bhashya is also against its authenticity.
No work of the leading Rishis which has come down
to us contains any such invocation, and Vydsa would be
the last to pray to Mahadeva in the way in which that
divinity has been invoked in the Bhashya. The tone
of the Bhashya is that ofa third class medieval
scholium, and I am clearly of opinion, therefore, that
it is not the work of the digester of the Vedas. Its
author may have borne the name of Vy4sa, a common
family name even to this day, but he was not the
digester of the Vedas nor older than the latest ancient
times, or, more probably, the early middle ages.

The next commentary I have to notice is the Raja-
martanda, of which a complete English translation
is now offered to the public. It is not so ambitious
as the last. It styles itself a 0272८८४ or gloss, whereas
the other is a Bhashya or commentary. It is mainly
explanatory, when the other is discursive. It is modest
in tone, when the other is dictatorial. Its author sets
forth his object in writing the work by saying, ‘ Avoid-
ing voluminousness, keeping clear of all mystifying and
obviously worthless network of words, and abstracting
the inmost meaning, I publish this exposition of the
sage Patanjali for the edification of intelligent per-
sons,’ (p. 2). And he has faithfully carried out his
resolution. He has interpreted all the leading words
of his text, and given a very fair explanation of the
meaning of his author, and the purport and bearing
of his doctrine. It is, perhaps, not always quite so
full in philosophical matter as its predecessor, but it

PREFACE. Ixxxi

certainly omits nothing of importance for a correct
understanding of the text.

It is generally taken for granted by Indian writers
that Bhoja, king of Dh4ra, who flourished in the
middle of the 11th century, was the author of the
exegesis ; but the opinion is not tenable. Doubtless
the colophon of the exegesis names Maharajadhiraja
Bhojadeva as its author, but there have been many
Bhojas in India, (द. my ‘ Indo-Aryans,’ II, pp. 385f,)
and it does not show which is the sovereign meant :
it certainly does not announce that this Bhoja was
the hero of the Bhojaprabandha and a sovereign of
[01878 in the century named. The title assigned him
in the introduction to the work is Ranarangamalla,
and this, as far as we know, was not borne by the
Bhoja of the 11th century. The former is, moreover,
described in the introduction to have written three
works, a grammatical treatise on the government of
words, a medical memoir under the titleof Rajamrigan-
ka, and the gloss under notice, and none of these is
attributed by the Bhojaprabandha to its hero. Onthe
other hand, that hero is known to have written or pub-
lished in his name a work on judicial astrology as bear-
ing on Smriti rites, under the name of Rdjamdrtanda,
and it is impossible to imagine that he assigned the same
name to his exegesis on the Yoga aphorisms. Two
such dissimilar works could not have been published
under one common name. And even if one believed
such a nomenclature to be possible or probable, the
question would arise, how is it that in the introduc-
tion to the Yoga, the astrological work is altogether

Ixxxl PREFACE,

left out of record? The astrological work is several
times the size of the Yoga exegesis, and otherwise
of considerable importance; it has been very largely
quoted by subsequent writers, and it is not at all
probable that an author, or his encomiast, who was
particular in noticing the meagre and poor medical
treatise should overlook it. It might be said that it
was composed after the composition of, and therefore
could not be included in, the Yoga gloss, but that
would be a simple assumption without any proof, a
mere begging of the question. That the Réjamartanda |
is not a generic, but a specific, name is evident from
the fact of an exegesis on the S’ankhya bearing
the name of Rajavartika, which is believed to have
been dedicated to Ranarangamalla. It is probable,
therefore, that our author is the Bhoja of the 10th
century, who was also a king of Dhara. Adverting
to him, Mr, Hall says, “That two Bhojas have ruled
over part of Central India, and that the earlier, what-
ever were the case with the later, was interested in
literature, I have elsewhere shown conclusively. The
Bhoja who reigned in the middle of the eleventh
century very likely entertained learned men at his
court, and the astrological compilation known as the
Rdjamértanda and thus called in honour of him may
have been indebted, for its name, to the suggestion
of the Yoga work so entitled, written in the time of
his homonymous antecessor. At any rate, he came
long after the date of the Saras vatt-kanthabharana ;
and we are nowhere told that the Bhoja to whom it
is attributed bore the epithet, Ranarangamalla.’ (Con-
tributions, p. Vill.)

PREFACE. [गदश

Of the other commentaries on the Yoga-Sitra, the
works of Bhavadeva, Nagoji Bhatta, Bhava-ganes’a,
Udayankara, Nages’a Bhatta, Narayana Bhikshu, Sada-
siva, Ram4nanda Tirtha, Mahadeva, Ananta, S’an-
kara, Umapati Tripathi, and Kshemfnanda, may be
cited as samples. They are all inferior in importance
to the work of Bhoja, and call for no special remark
here.

The same may be said of the other works named
in my list. Some of them treat of the various
practices which Yogis resort to to acquire occult
powers; while others describe modified forms of the
doctrine of Patanjali, suited to Vaishnava, Saiva, and
Sakta forms of worship, so as to lead the individual
soul, in its longing for salvation, to subsidiance in, or
union with, the Divinity.

Among the works of the first group the most
popular and noted is the Hatha-pradipika or Hatha-
dipika. It comprises 395 stanzas, divided into 4
chapters or lessons, (Upades’a), the first treating of
postures, the second of regulation of breath, the third
of gesticulation or mudras, and the fourth of Sama-
dhi. Its author is one Chintamani, son of Sahaja-
nanda, but this name of his was what he got when
living as a householder. On his becoming a hermit he
took the name of S’vAtmarama, and received the title
of Yogindra, and is now generally known by the
name of S’vatmarama Yogindra. He makes a great
mystery of the theme of his work. He says, “ By
Yogis wishing for perfection, this science should be
carefully kept in secret, for it is most efficient when

lxxxiv PREFACE.

kept secret, and worthless when disclosed.”* Like the
alchemists of old, he indicates simple things by round-
about metaphorical names, and enjoins that none but
adepts should know anything of his subject. This
book is named Hatha vidya, ar the science of the letters
ha and tha, ha meaning the sun and tha the moon.
This sun again stands for the breath inspired, and the
moon for the breath expired, and the ultimate mean-
ing of Hatha-vidy4 is thus the science of inspiration
and expiration. Although by profession and habit
a recluse who had thoroughly abandoned the world
and its attractions, Svatmarama, indulges at times in
language of agrossly carnal type. Thus in one place
he says, “‘let beef be eaten and the immortal arrack
(odrunt) be drunk every day. I reckon him who does
so, to be a kulina (a noble householder) ; the rest are des-
troyers of their nobility.”+ Here beef gomdisa stands
for the tongue, which should be reverted and made to
touch the palate, and varwnéi means the breath which
passes over this reverted tongue. Again: “Let the
youthful chaste widow be ravished on the land be-
tween the rivers Ganges and Yamuna; it is the high-
est glory of Vishnu.”’{ Here the two rivers are the
two nostrils, and the widow is the breath which is ta
be forcibly suppressed for a time. This style of

allegory and mystery is adopted by a great many
medieval writers on the Yoga. At the beginning of
the work, the author has given a list of thirty re-
nowned ए 088 who had practised the science in
question. At the head of these appear A’dinatha, who
is generally identified with 81158, who is believed to
be the first and most renowned of Yogfs. The
work has been made the subject of comment by
several writers, among whom Brahmananda, the
author of the Jyotend, is reckoned to be the ablest.
It would seem that the Yoga doctrine was, ata very
early period, translated to Persia, and disseminated in
some form or other among different sects. The Sa-
p4siyans obtained it in its entirety. They believed on
efficacy of discipline and austerity; they assiduously
practised the regulation of breath enjoined in the
Yoga; they divided the stages of their progress in
meditation in the same way as the Yogis did; they
held the highest meditation to be a state of trance
identically the same as the Samadhi; they claimed
occult powers* of the same nature and character as

did the Yogis; they were familiar with the idea
of the possibility of the soul at will passing from
one body into another; they believed in metempsy-
chosis ; and, if they looked upon union with the Su-
preme Divinity as the swmmum bonum of their faith,
they but accepted one of the several forms of the
Yoga, different doubtless from the Isolation of Patan-
jali, but not independent of it. (Qf. Dabistan I,
pp. 5f.) It is, however, not known whether the
system of Sapasiyéns was founded upon any transla-
tion of a Sanskrit Yoga work, or on oral communica-
tion. Some of the Sapdsiyans admitted their obliga-
tion to Hindustan, but their text-books, the few and
imperfect ones that are still accessible, have not yet
been sufficiently examined to throw light on the
question. The close relationship existing between
the two systems, even in the use of technical terms,
preclude the idea of spontaneous growth, and the
avowed posteriority of the Persian doctrine leaves no
doubt of its Indian origin ; but as at present advised,
we are not in a position to spot the exact text from
which it was derived.

Of interpretations of the Yoga system in foreign
languages the earliest appears to be an Arabic version
of the text of Patanjali. The work is no longer

extant, but the testimony in favour of its having once
existed is unquestionable. Abu [लाश al Nirani, in
his Tarikh-ul Hind, which formed a part of his famous
Kantin-i-Masudi (A. D. 1025-36), says, ‘I have
translated into Arabic two Indian works, one dis-
cusses the origin and quality of things which exist
and is entitled Sankhya, the other is known under
the title of Patanjali, which treats of the deliverance
of the soul from the trammels of the body. These
two works contain the chief principles of the Indian
creed.’ (Ellot’s Historians, I, p. 99; Journal Asia-
tique, IV serie, tom. IV, p. 121; Reinaud’s Fragments
Arabs et Persans.) It does not appear that any
Persian version of Patanjali was ever taken in hand in
the time of Akbar and his successor, when so many
Sanskrit works were rendered into that language.
There is, however, an abstract of the Yoga doctrine
in the Dabistan-i-Muzahab of Mahsin-i Fini. That
author flourished in the middle of the 17th century,
and, during a long residence at Allahabad as the
Chief Judge (Sudder), collected a great deal of in-
formation on the subject. Depending evidently on
oral information, he could not avoid gross mistakes in
his account of the philosophy, but in regard to the
details of Yoga exercises and the occult powers he
has compiled as reliable an exposition as could be
expected from such a source. He notices Gorakha-
14118 and several other celebrated saints, and states
that he had seen some Yogis possessed of wonderful
occult powers, but he does not name Patanjali.
(of. Shea and Troyer’s Translation, II, pp. 128f.)

lxxxvill PREFACE.

In English the first attempt to give an account
of the Yoga doctrine was made by Ward in his ac-
count of the Hindus, but it did not produce any satis-
factory result. Colebrooke’s resumé in the Transactions
of the Royal Asiatic Society, is much more philosophic
in spirit and faithful in details, but Colebrooke took
it up only casually in connexion with his essay on
the S’énkhya, and did not notice much more than
the first chapter of the work. Taylor, in the Intro-
duction to his translation of the Bhagavadgita, supplies
the Kriya-yoga with considerable fulness, and Win-
dischmann’s account, though brief, is tolerably good.
. In 1883 Dr. Ballantyne published a translation of
the first two chapters of the Yoga-stitra with extracts
from the commentary of Bhojadeva, and from it ab-
stracts of the Yoga system have been compiled by Dr.
K. M. Banerjea, and Rev. Mr. Mullins. The transla-
tion of Ballantyne was completed, in a disjointed
way, by Pandit Govindaram Sastri in the pages of
a Benares magazine called the ^“ Pandit.” The two
fragments have lately been printed together by the
Theosophical Society of Bombay. The text with an
original commentary together with an English trans-
lation is now being printed in the Saddarsana-chin-
tanika of Bombay, and an abstract of the text occurs
in Cowell and Gough’s Sarvadarsana-sangraha.
An account of Yoga practices may also be seen ina
pamphlet by Nabinchandra Pal, published at Benares.

Little need be said in praise of Dr. Ballan-
tyne’s work. The profound learning and thorough
conservancy with Hindu philosophy which that learned

PREFACE. lxxxix

scholar brought to bear on his undertaking, enabled
him to produce a very accurate reproduction of the
original. In his anxiety, however, to be accurate he
had occasion to resort too frequently to parenthetical
clauses, and they resulted in confused sentences, in-
volving much trouble in understanding them. His
extracts from the commentary are particularly ame-
nable to this objection. The extracts, moreover, are
somewhat disjointed.

When the Asiatic Society of Bengal first proposed
to publish an edition of the Yoga-sutra with the com-
mentary of Bhojadeva, I undertook to reprint Dr.
Ballantyne’s translation with such additions as would
complete the work. I soon found, however, that my
work placed beside his produced a very patchy ap-
pearance, and his parenthetical style was not desirable
for a proper and easy understanding of thetext. I
preferred, therefore, to translate the whole in my own
way. The aphorisms will be found to be as closely
literal as the idiom of the English language would
admit of, and the commentary a fair reproduction of
the spirit, sense and wording of the original, without
being a verbatim reproduction.

Much difficulty has been felt in the treatment of
the technical terms. Philosophical terms in the Eng-
lish language have not yet arrived at that fixity and
firmness which would preclude possible variations.
Different writers assign different values to even well-
established terms, and their latitude is frequently
varying; and such as they are, they are not exact
equivalents of Sanskrit words, which in their turn vary

xe PREFACE.

in meaning under different circumstances and in the
hands of different writers. There are instances, too, of
Sanskrit terms whose literal significations are very
different from the philosophical ideas they are intended
to convey, and in dealing with them, the translator has
either to sacrifice precision of rendering for the sake of
intelligibility, or intelligibility for the sake of preci-
sion. In the following pages I have borrowed the
terms mostly from Colebrooke’s translation of the Sdn-
khya-karikd, translating a few myself, and transli-
terating the Sanskrit terms in some cases. My reasons
I have explained as far as I could in my notes.
When I undertook the task I had hopes of read-
ing the work with the assistance of a professional Yoet ;
but I have been disappointed. I could find no Pandit
in Bengal who had made Yoga the special subject of
his study, and the only person I met at Benares who
could help me was most exorbitant in his demands.
He cared not for the world and its wealth, and the
only condition under which he would teach me was
strict pupillage under Hindu rules—living in his hut
and ever following his footsteps—to which I could
not submit. I had, therefore, to depend on my own
knowledge of the Sanskrit language to arrive at the
meaning of Patanjali, availing myself frequently of
the aid of my learned friend Professor Mahes’a-
chandra Nyayaratna, of the Calcutta Sanskrit College,
for the solution of difficulties. I had the assis-
tance, too, of Professor KA4makhyanatha Tarkaratna,
of that College, both in revising the text and in
translating it. Both the Professors are distinguished

N yaya scholars, and Pandit Mahes‘achandra commands
a deep knowledge of the Sankhya, and with their
aid, I believe, I have been able to avoid gross
misinterpretations of the text, though I cannot flatter
myself with the idea that I have been able always
satisfactorily to expound the meaning of Patanjali.

Manuscripts of the Yoga-sutra are common enough
in Bengal, but I have not met with any particularly
old, or exceptionally correet text. In carrying the
text and commentary through the press, I had the use
of the following codices :

In the text of Patanjali, no variation of any note
has been met with in the above codices. The work ap-
pears to have been preserved with every care, 88 may
be presumed from the circumstance of its having
enjoyed the benefit of a host of commentaries and
glosses. The commentary of Bhoja has not been so
corre tly preserved. There are many differences of
reading in the different codices. But on the whole
the differences are not so material as would justify
the assumption of different recensions, or produce any
marked changes in the meaning of the author.

abode in the samo region with the Divinity; 3rd, Sdyujya, or the merging of the
human into the divine, from intimate union; and 4th, Sdripya, or obtaining of

CHAPTER FIRST. 3

CHAPTER FIRST.

Now, an exposition of the Yoga (is to be made).

This aphorism explains the subject of the work, the object
with which it is written, and the relation (it bears to the subject).
(The word) “ Now’* (atha) suggests (that) a (distinct) topic
(here commences), and it serves also as a benediction.

(The word) Yoga means ‘union,’ or the application of
the mind to abstract contemplation, from the root yug “to
meditate.” An “exposition” (anus‘asana) is that whereby
something is expounded or described through its characteristic
marks, its real nature, its distinctive divisions, its causes and
effects. (The two words Yoga and anus‘asana form the com-
pound) Yoganus'asana, (which means) “an exposition of the
Yoga.” This is to be understood to be the topic even to the
end of this work (of Patanjali).

Yoga, with the means of performing it and its fruit, constitutes
the subject, that being treated of in this Institute. The object of
the work is the explanation of the subject, and the fruit thereof
is the emancipation obtainable by the Yoga. The relation of the
work is the connection which exists between that which treats,
and the subject treated of, (or the Institute and its subjects).
The connection between Yoga, the subject, and its effect, which
is emancipation (Kaivalya), or the means and the end, is also its
relation. The substance of this is—that in the work are described
the instruments of performing the Yoga which is its subject—
that Yoga the accomplishment of which leads to the consumma-
tion of emancipation called Kaivalya.

[Dr. Ballantyne has rendered the word Yoga into “ concentra-
tion.” That English word, however, in itsordinary signification, does

# Dr. Ballantyne’s text has athdtah “now then.”

4 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

not convey anything like a fair idea of what Yoga means. The
word meditation would have been more appropriate, but even that `
does not convey all the ideas which the Sanskrit term has been
made to comprehend. A perfect English equivalent is not to be
had, and I prefer, therefore, to use the original term to coining a
new one. The commentator so explains the word Anus‘dsana as
to convey the idea that it is a verbal noun intended to explain
the purport of the work. The commentary named Pdtanzala-
bhashya takes it along with the word Yoga to be the specific
name of the work. (Yogdns'’dsanam nama sdstram). If this be
accepted, and it appears to be the most appropriate, the aphorism
should be rendered into, “‘ Now, the (work called) Yoganusfsana,
(will be expounded).”” Vdchaspati Misra, the annotator on the
last named work, and Vijnéna-bhikshu in his Vartzka, take notice
of this subject. They also raise the question about the origin
of the doctrine. They hold that Patanjali was not the originator
of the doctrine, for it has existed from creation, and Hiranya-
garbha was the first performer of the Yoga; but that he was
merely the compiler of the rules in the form of an institute for
the use of intelligent people anxious to study them. Nanu

Now what is this Yoga? To this the author replies :—

II.

Yoga is the suppression of the functions of the think-
ing principle.

«Thinking principle” (ckitia) is of the form of goodness
without a taint. “Functions” (vrittz) are modifications of the
relation between each other of them. “ Yoga” or meditation is
described to be the “ suppression” (x2rodha), or dissolution in their
primary causes, through the direction inward on the suppression of

CHAPTER FIRST, 5

the tendency outward, of the functions in question, This श)
pression is a cross-grained ascent of the “ functions” of the
thinking principle. Being common to all the conditions of
the thinking principle, it is an attribute of all beings, and
therefore it becomes at times evident in 80716 one condition
or other. The conditions, or the different states of the thinking
principle, are—restless activity, mischievous ignorance, volup-
tuousness, concentration, and suppression. Thereof the condition
of activity (kshipta) is induced by an access of the quality
of foulness (rajas). Propelled by that quality it tends out-
wards, approaching or receding from imaginary or real pleasur-
able or painful objects. It is common to demons, sons of Diti,
Titans, sons of Danu, &c. Addiction to evil actions without
distinguishing between what should be done and what not (1८64)
proceeds from an excess of darkness (¢amas). It is common to
demons (Rakshasas), ghosts (Pis’fchas), &c. Voluptuousness
(vikshipta) is the feeling of avoiding the causes of pain, and en-
gaging in (those sensuous objects of) sound and the like which
promote enjoyment. It proceeds. from an excess of the quality
of goodness (satéva), and is observable in the Devas. It
amounts to this, that the thinking principle by foulness becomes
restlessly active; by darkness mischievous, or desirous of injure
ing others; and by goodness full of happiness. These three con-
ditions of the thinking principle are not fit for the condition of
devout contemplation. The two conditions of concentration and
suppression, having an excess of the quality of goodness and
following the others, are reckoned fit for that purpose,

The object of arranging the qualities af goodness &c, ina dise
orderly way is this : notwithstanding the two qualities of foulness
and darkness being very detestable, the quality of foulness is first
described, because unless activity is made intelligible, no supprese
sion of it can possibly ke grasped. Hence the reversed order, The
object of placing the quality of goodness last is this: that by its ex-
cess, the two (subsequent) conditions become fit for Yoga. Of thosg
two conditions, ४7.) concentration and suppression, that in which

the thinking principle is in a state of (exclusive) application to
one point is called Yoga. What is the resultof this? (It is
this): by Yoga or concentration to one point the external func-
tions cease, and on that cessation there is a complete dissolution
of all functions with their residua. In both these conditions,
Yoga meditation is practicable.

(The most important word in the aphorism is ९07८2 which has
been rendered into “ thinking principle” by Dr. Ballantyne. In
ordinary Sanskrit it is a synonym of the word manas “ mind,”
and Dr. Ballantyne has used that word as a synonym in different
places, and in the sense in which that word is used in philosophy
--2, ¢., that which perceives, feels, thinks and wills,” (Taylor,
Elements of Thought,) “ or that which, when it acts, knows what it
is going to do; something stored with ideas of its intended works,
agreeably to which ideas those works are fashioned,” (Harnis,
Hermes, p. 227)—he is right. In the Séfikhya aphorisms of
Kapila, its counterpart manas has been used in the same sense
(Mahadékhyamédyam kdryam tanmanah,I,71). But inasmuch
as the philosophical writers of this country make a marked distine-
tion between mind as above described, and as an internal organ
of knowledge, the sensorium, it is desirable that the distinction
should be marked by the use of a different word. In the Safikhya
aphorisms the word cAzéta does not occur, nor is it to be met with
in the Nyd4ya. The Vedantists use it sparingly, taking it to be a
modification or another name of Buddhi (Veddnta-sdéra). Its
equivalent in the Safikhya is Adhyavasdya, which is synonymous
with Buddhi. (Adhyavasdyo buddhih, II, 13). Itis called Mahat
“the great one,” because “ it is the first and most important of
the products of nature, presiding over and pervading the whole.”
(Mahattvam svetara-sakalakirya-vydépakatvan-mahaisvarydchcha.)
It is mati “ understanding,” because every thing is understood by
it, (manyati anayd) ; ६९/८४ “ familiar knowledge ;” jndna, and
27404. That Patanjali implies the object of these words by
chitta is evident from the fact of his making it the first product
of nature and anterior to egotism, as the Sinkhya does, and by say-

the tendency outward, of the functions in question. The form
is a cross-grained ascent of the “functions” of the thinking
principle. That suppression being common to all the condi-
tions of the thinking principle is an attribute of all beings, and
therefore it becomes at times evident in some one condition
or other. The conditions, or the different states of the thinking
principle, are—unquietness, mischievous ignorance, voluptuous-
ness, concentration, and suppression. Thereof the condition
of unquietness (/shzpta) is induced by the access of the quality
of foulness (rajas). Propelled by that quality it tends out-
wards, approaching or receding from imaginary or real pleasur-
able or painful objects. It 1s common to demons, sons of Diti,
and Titans, sons of Danu &c. Addiction to evil action without
distinguishing between what should be done and what not (da)
proceeds from an excess of darkness (famas). It is common to
demons (Rékshasas) and ghosts, (218६९1४8) &९, Voluptuousness
(vzkshipta) is the feeling of avoiding the causes of pain, and en-
gaging in (those sensuous objects of) sound and the like which
promote enjoyment. It proceeds from an excess of the quality
of goodness, (satéva), and is observable in the Devas. It
amounts to this, that the thinking principle by foulness becomes
active (or desirous) ; by darkness mischievous, or desirous of inju-
ring others ; and by goodness full of happiness. These three con-
ditions of the thinking principle are not fit for the condition of
devout contemplation. The two conditions of concentration and
suppression having an excess of the quality of the goodness and
foulness, successively placed, are reckoned fit for that.

The object of arranging the qualities of goodness &c. in a dis-
orderly way is this: notwithstanding the two qualities of foulness
and darkness being very detestable, the quality of foulness is first
described, because unless activity is made intelligible,no suppression
of it can possibly be grasped. Hence the reversed order. The object
of placing the quality of goodness last is this: that by its excess,
the two (subsequent) conditions become fit for Yoga. Of those
two conditions, ८८६.) concentration and suppression, that in which

the thinking principle is in a state of (exclusive) application to
one point is called Yoga. What is the result of this? (It is
this): by Yoga or concentration to one point the external func-
tions cease, and on that cessation there is a complete dissolution
of all functions with their impressions. In both these conditions,
Yoga meditation is practicable.

[The most important word in the aphorism is chzéta which has
been rendered into “ thinking principle” by Dr. Ballantyne. In
ordinary Sanskrit it is a synonym of the word manas “ mind,”
and Dr. Ballantyne has used that word as a synonym in different
places, and in the sense in which that word is used in philosophy
—1. e., “that which perceives, feels, thinks and wills,” (Taylor,
Elements of Thought,) “ or that which, when it acts, knows what it
18 going to do ; something stored with ideas of its intended works,
agreeably to which ideas those works are fashioned,” (Harris,
Hermes, p. 227)—he is right. Inthe Safikhya aphorisms of
Kapila, its counterpart manas has been used in the same sense
(Mahadikhyamadyam karyam tanmanah,1,71). But inasmuch as
the philosophical writers of this country make a marked distinc-
tion between mind as above described, and as an internal organ
of knowledge, it is desirable that the distinction should be marked
by the use of a different word. In the SafAkhya aphorisms the
word chitta does not occur, nor 15 itto be met with in the Ny4ya.
The Vedantis use it sparingly, taking it to be a modification
or another name of Buddhi (Vedanta-sa'ra), Its equivalent in
the Safikhya is Addyavasaya which is synonymous with Buddhi.
(Adhyavasayo buddhih, II, 13). It is called Mahat “the great
one,” because “ it is the first and most important of the products
of nature, presiding over and pervading the whole.” (AMahat-
tvam svetara-sakalakarya-vyapakatvan-mahaisvaryachcha.) It is
maty ^^ understanding,” because every thing is understood by it,
(manyatt anaya) ; Khydti “familiar knowledge ; jnana, and
prajnd. That Patanjali implies the object of these words by
chitta is evident from the fact of his making it the first product
of nature and anterior to egotism, as the Sankhya does, and by say-

CHAPTER FIRST. 7

ing that the suppression of its functions results in the completion
of Yoga. (Vritti-nirodhat tatsiddhih, III, 31). Thus Véchas-
pati Misra—chitta-s'abdenantahkaranam buddhimupalakshayati.
According to the order of creation prakritri comes first, thence
cehitta, thence egotism, thence mind, and thence the subtile organs
&c., and this both according to the SéAkhya and the Yoga
systems, The thinking principle is thus the same with intellect,
and mind in the highest sense.

The next word is ०2८४, I follow Colebrooke and Wilson by
rendering it into “functions.” The functions are produced by
modifications of the original principle produced by unequal
exertions of the three qualities of goodness, foulness and darkness.
In so far they are allotropic conditions of the same principle, and
so, as Vijnfna Bhikshu expresses it, the world is merely a
modification of form, of which prakritz is the materiality. (Pa-
rindmaripam jagadupaddnakatvantu-prakrititvam,) Parindma or
change is the term usually employed as its equivalent, and Bhoja
explains it by saying “they are modifications of the relation
between each other of the functions.’”? Vijnana Bhikshu calls it
transformation of Prakriti, (prakritiviripam). Under these
circumstances Dr. Ballantyne’s use of the term “ modification”
affords the closest rendering ; but Dr. Wilson prefers functions
as more idiomatic and expressive.

The last word 18 1270444, which means stoppage, or hindering,
and suppression implies the same.

The definition of Yoga as given in the text and the commentary
suggests the idea that the suppression of thought must be complete
before Yoga can be accomplished, but such is not the object, for
in the lower stages of meditation such is not the case, and yet it
18 Yoga. The Pdtanjala-bhdshya points this out by saying
that since the word sarva “all” has not been used before vzttz
‘ functions,” the form of Yoga in which there is a distinct recog-
nition is also Yoga. (Sarvasabdagrahanat samprajndtopi Yogah).
It is remarkable that Bhoja should have overlooked so important
a qualification. }

8 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

Now the author of the Stitras, wishing to describe the words

chitta-vyitti-nirodhahk, describes first [in two aphorisms] the word
chitta.

ITT.

Then (४, ८. at the time of meditation) there is abi-
dance of the spectator in its own form.

‘‘Then,” at that time, the soul, as “ the spectator,” (drashta)
“abides” remains in its own form, which is simple intelligence
(and nothing more). The meaning is this: that on knowledge
being fully developed, there being no shadow of any sensuous
object cast on the thinking principle, and the egotism of one’s
self, which is the actor, being gone, and intellect being fit for
liberation, the soul abides or obtains location in Buddhi which is
its own form.

[The spectator is the soul which, abiding in the body, and influ-
enced by the thinking principle, beholds what is done by the
organs, but does not partake of the pleasures and pains resulting
from their action, and in the state of Yoga the functions being-
stopped there is the spectator without any spectacle to behold.
This spectator is the soul. ]

What then is the form (of the soul) when waking (or active,
४, €. other than in a state of meditation)? To this he replies:

IV.
At other times it 18 in the same form as its func.
tions.

“‘At other times”’—4d. ¢., at times other than that of medita-
tion. Its “functions” are those the characteristics of which will
hereafter be described (A. V.) ‘In the same form” means to
consist of it. The purport is this. Even as the functions, in-
volving pleasure, pain and bewilderment, manifest themselves, so
does the soul &, ¢., it appears so to itself. Ifso, it follows that that
object, in which, in the state of modification produced by concentra-
tion, the power of understanding finds its own form, and which

CHAPTER FIRST. 9

being influenced by the functions of the senses resolves itself into
worldly objects, and the soul appears manifest in the forms thereof,
as the moon reflected in the moving ripples on the water, appears
as if it were (itself) moving, is the thinking principle chitéta.

[It is a dogma of the Hindu metaphysicians that the thinking
principle or intellect assumes the form of the object perceived.
And the aphorism explains that when that principle is immersed
in complete Yoga it perceives itself and nothing more, but when
it is active and influenced by external objects it assumes the forms
of its excitants].

To explain the term function, (the third word in A. II,) the

author says :—

V.

The functions are fivefold, (and they are either)
painful or not: painful.

The “ functions” (vrzttz) are certain modifications of the think-
ing principle. The word panckhatayi (five-fold) is formed by
the addition of the affix ¢ayap (Panini ए. ii. 42), and implies
that the totality of the forms of the functions constitutes the
form-bearer, and the functions severally are the forms thereof.
The five functions are what are meant.

How are they? They are painful or not painful. ^ Those
that are involved in sufferings of the kind about to be described
are painful; those that are the reverse of these are not painful.”

[This aphorism is a verbatim copy of Kapila’s aphorism 38,
Book II. It only propounds what are to be explained in subse-
quent aphorisms].

The five functions are to be described after being named.

VI.

(The functions of the thinking principle are) right
notion, misconception, fancy, sleep and memory.
Of these the author gives the definitions successively.
2%

10 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

VII.

Right notions are perception, inference, and testi-
mony.

Here the author of the Institute has not given a separate
definition of what right notion is, that being very well known,
and it being made evident by the description of its different
forms. In fact the real definition of right notion is that whereby
is produced unquestionable knowledge.

“Perception” (pratyaksha) is that function of the thinking
principle by which it acquires, through the medium of the senses
brought in connexion with external objects having common and
peculiar characteristics, a knowledge of the most important
peculiar characteristic.

“Inference” (4५४११0८) is the conviction produced by a previous
knowledge of the uecessary relation between a characteristic and
that which bears it.

A trustworthy word is “ testimony,” (agama).

[Pramana means right notion, as also the means of acquiring
that right notion, ४ ¢., evidence, and hence the two meanings are
often confounded. As a function of the thinking principle it is
right notion, and not evidence. The Yoga system follows the
Séfikhya in admitting only three means of right notion, and in
the Séfkhya-karikaé they are said to comprise every mode of
demonstration. The Naiy&yikas, however, reckon four kinds,
viz., preception (pratyaksha), inference (anumdna), comparison
(upamana), and testimony (sada). The Veddntis follow this
latter, and the Miméfskas recognise six, v2z., perception
(pratyaksha), presumption (arthapatt:), proportion (sambhara),
privation (०९04८), comprehension (874८2660), and oral com-
munication (attihya).

The word used for perception is pratyaksha, which means “ that
which is seen,” but it implies knowledge acquired through any
one of the five organs of sense, or, as Reid defines perception,

CHAPTER FIRST. 11

“evidence which we have of external objects by our senses.” For
testimony Patanjali gives dgama, which means the Vedas, but the
commentator has generalised it by giving for its synonym
dptavachana “ reliable words”; it is the declaration of one who
knows the truth of that which he affirms, and whose authority
may be relied upon. The scriptures, as revealed knowledge,
naturally come at the head of testimony]. |

Having thus described the function of right notion the author
speaks of Misconception.

Misconception is incorrect notion, (or a notion)
which abides in a form which is not that of its object.

“‘ Misconception” (viparyaya) is a notion of something in re-
spect of which it really is not ; as the notion of silver in mother-
o’pearl. ‘ Which abides in a form which 18 not that of its object”
is to say a notion which does not abide in that form which is its
(real) form (in respect of which the notion is entertained). It
amounts to this, that the notion does not reveal the real form of
the thing. Doubt (safsaya) founded on the notion whether a
thing abides in its proper form or not, such as whether a parti-
cular object seen is a man or the stump of a tree, is also a
Misconception.

To describe the function of Fancy, he says :

IX.

Fancy is a notion founded on a knowledge con-
veyed by words, but of which (there is) no object
(corresponding in reality).

Knowledge dependant on words is gabda-jnana. That which
follows it, is sadda-jndnanupati (the epithet used to define
Fancy, which in the text has been translated by the word
“notion founded on a knowledge conveyed by words”). Such
a notion without reference to the real character of an object

12 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

is “Fancy.” Thus the words, “the intelligence of the soul
(purusha) is its own form.” Here a notion is assumed by ad-
mitting a distinction as in the notion produced by the possessive
ease in the phrase “the blanket of Devadatta,” though it does
not really exist, for in fact the soul is intelligence itself (and
there is no distinction between it and its intelligence, or of
possessor and the possessed).

[‘ In the soul

Are many lesser faculties, that serve

Reason as chief ; among these fancy next

Her office holds ; of all eternal things

Which the five watchful senses represents

She forms imagination’s airy shapes,”

Paradise Lost, B. V.]
In order to declare what Sleep is, he says:

X.

Sleep is that function (of the thinking principle)
which has for its object the conception of nothing.

Of that function which is based on the conception of nothing
the name is as aforesaid (abhdvapratyayd.) Hence it follows that
“Sleep” (१४14) is that function (of the thinking principle) which
takes place on the quitting of all objects, in consequence of the
quality of darkness always preceding it. That this is a function
(of the thinking principle and not a mere blank) is proved by
our seeing that one recollects (on arising from a sound sleep)
that “I slept pleasantly,” which could not have happened
without a consciousness of it, (and no memory can exist of that
which is not). Hence it is a function.

In order to describe Memory, he says :

XI.

Memory is the not letting go of an object that has
been recognised.

CHAPTER FIRST. 18

“The not letting go”? (asampramosha) or not allowing to escape
from our intellect an object which has once been recognised
through (proper) evidence 18 ^^ Memory” (smrztz).

Of the five functions Evidence, Misconception, and Fan-
cy belong to the waking state. When any of these, from
vividness of impression, becomes perceptible (in sleep), it isa Dream
(svapna.) But Sleep of itself has no cognisable object. Memory
again is dependent on Evidence, Misconception, Fancy or Sleep.

[Bishop Hall says, ‘““ Memory is the great keeper or Master of
the Rolls of the soul, a power that can make amends for the
speed of time, in causing him to leave behind him those things
which else he would so carry away as if they had not been.” It
is said to be dependant on Evidence, Misconception, &c., because
the impressions it preserves are the productions of those causes. ]

Having thus described the functions (of the thinking principle),
in order to explain the suppression (the fourth word in A. II,) of
these with the means thereof, he says:

XII.

The suppression of these (functions is effected) by
Exercise and Dispassion.

५ Exercise” (adhydsa) and Dispassion” (vairdgya) will be defined
in the aphorisms about to be given. The repression by these
(Exercise and Dispassion) of the functions of the thinking principle
which have the form of revealing, energizing and regulating, is
५८ suppression” (nzrodha). What is meant is the placing of the func-
tions, which from their turning inwards have ceased to dwell on ex-
ternal objects, in the thinking principle, which is their original
cause, and of which they are but potential attributes.

Aversion from sensuous objects is produced by “ Dispassion”’
resulting from a knowledge of the evil influence of those objects
(on the thinking principle), and confirmed steadfastness is acquired
by “ Exercise,” which makes it a source of happiness and quiet ;
and by the (conjoined effect of the) two the functions of the
thinking principle are suppressed.

14 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

[The purport of this aphorism has been given by Kapila in six
aphorisms, 31 to 36 of Book III.]
With a view to describe Exercise, he says :

XIII.

Exercise is the (repeated) effort that it (the think-
ing principle) shall remain in its functionless state.

Sthiti or ^^ functionless state” is that condition of the think-
ing principle in which it abides in its own (original) form, free
from all functions ; and the effort or endeavour (repeated) again
and again to bring it to that condition is ‘ Exercise” or
abhydasa.

He next mentions a special character of that (Exercise).

XIV.

It is again a firm ground attained by proper devo-
tion for a long time unintermittingly.

It (Exercise) is a firm ground, z. e., it becomes steadfast, or
acquires firmness, by being assiduously attended to for a long
time unremittingly with an excess of regard. The meaning is
that it tends to firmness.

He now mentions the definition of Dispassion (A. XII.)

XV.

The consciousness of being the subjugator on the
part of one who thirsts after neither perceptible nor
scriptural objects is Dispassion.

Objects are of two kinds, “ Perceptible” (drishta) and
८ Scriptural” (dnus’ravika). The Perceptible is that which may be
apprehended here (on earth), such as sound and other objects
(perceptible through the organs of sense). The Scriptural is that
which exists in the regions of the Devas or elsewhere (where it
cannot be grasped by carnal organs). °

CHAPTER FIRST. 15

That which is heard (anus’rityate) from the mouth of a preceptor

is anus‘rava or the.Veda. What comes to our knowledge there-
from (3. ¢., from the Veda) is what is meant by “one heard of”
dnus'ravika. Giving up all eagerness for these {wo classes of
objects, on account of their becoming distasteful at the end, the
reflection which ensues (in the thinking principle) to the effect
that these are my subjects, but I am not their slave, is called
Dispassion (Vairagya.)
_ [The word Vairdgya (dispassion) is formed of the privative prefix
vi, and rdga, ‘affection,’ ‘ prepossession,’ ‘love,’ ‘desire,’ the
meaning being, in the technical sense in which it is used here,
absence of desire for enjoyable objects. The absence, however,
should not be accidental, as in the case of a child or of a stolid person
where, owing to want of development of certain organs, it ©
results without effort, but the fruit of due deliberation, and a
conviction that the objects are not worth having, and that the
desire for them should be suppressed.

The word vas’ikdra-sanjnd literally means “ consciousness of
being able to subjugate,” in this instance the passions; but the
commentators take it to be a mere indifference or apathy, neither
affection nor hatred. Thus the Patanjala Bhashya: ^ devoid
of hatred and desirability” (Aeyopadeya-sunyd) ; and Vaéchaspati
Misra explains the phrase by the words “a sense of indifference
having neither attachment nor hatred” (asaflgadvesharahité
upekshabuddhth).

The word rendered into ^ perceptible’ is drish{a ‘seen ;’ but, as
illustrated by commentators, it means all worldly objects of sense ;
they may not be perceptible owing to excessive distance, extreme
nearness, defect of the organs, inattention, minuteness, inter-
position of objects, &c., (Sadkhya-kartka. V. VII.), still they
are perceptible on this earth under some circumstance or other,
and therefore included in the term. The Patanjala Bhdshya
illustrates the term by naming women, food, drink, and power,
(striyonnapanamaisvaryimiti). Dr. Ballantyne renders it into
**seen,”’ which is its lexicographical meaning, but which is quite

16 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

inadmissible here. Wilson, following Colebrooke, renders it
into “‘temporal” which conveys the right technical meaning, but
it becomes inappropriate under certain circumstances, as when
we have to deal with adrishta, the antonym of drishta, in which
case non-temporal would be unmeaning, for the word implies fate
or what has not yet happened but may happen; the unseen is in
that case the best.

The Sanskrit term for Scriptural is dausravika, which means
“that which has been heard from another,” but it has not been
used in that sense here. As the commentators show, the
secondary meaning of 20४57202 is the Veda, which is also called
Sruti, or “that which has been heard,” and the object is to im-
ply those rewards which the Veda promises to the performer of
sacrifices &c. Colebrooke uses the synonym ‘revealed.’ The
Patanjala Bhdshya takes the rewards to mean heaven, rudi-
mental body, and dissolution into nature (svargavatdehyapra-
kyitilayah). Thus the dispassion implies not only indifference
to worldly enjoyments and objects, but the same feeling also in
regard to celestial and other forms of pleasure derivable by the
performance of the rites enjoined in the Veda. The pleasures, both
of this world and of the next, are equally temporary, and therefore
should not be desired by one who longs for emancipation. Thus in
the Sattkhya-karika: ‘The revealed mode is, like the temporal
one, ineffectual, for it is impure; it 1s defective in some respects,
as well as excessive in others.” (Wilson’s Safikhya-karniké, p. 13).
In fact it amounts to the moral imperturbability of Pyrrho.]

A peculiarity in it is to be described.

XVI.

Carried to the extent of indifference to the qualities
it is the highest, as it is (then) conducive to a know-
ledge of God.

“Tt? ४, ८., ^^ Dispassion.” “ Highest” (para) the most estimable.
The first degree of ^ Dispassion” (A. XV) has regard to (ordinary)
objects; the second, has regard to the (three) qualities, and it is

CHAPTER FIRST. 17

cive toaknowledge of the distinction between the product qualities
and the (nonproduced) soul, from its extreme conduciveness to
the perfect suppressive meditation.

[The object of this aphorism is to divide Dispassion into two
kinds; one referring 10 enjoyable objects and called visaya-
vatrdgya, and the other to qualities, ४. ९. to the knowledge of the
relation between the discrete and the indiscrete, (vyaktavyaktadhar-
makebhyoviraktah). The latter is described to be the highest, or
most estimable, because it is more valuable than the former, in
the attainment of the final object. The word para is the lead-
ing term in the Aphorism, and stands by itself, being predicated
by what follow. But Dr. Ballantyne has subordinated it, by re-
ducing it into a predicate. He says “ This carried to the utmost
is indifference regarding the qualities.” This is obviously not
the right meaning. |

Having thus stated the nature of Yoga, the author (next)
mentions the differences existing between the nature of that kind
of it in which there is consciousness (samprajnata) and that in
which consciousness is lost (asamprajnata).

XVII.

Conscious, because it is attended with argumenta-
tion, deliberation, joy and egoism.

The word “ meditation” (samadhz) is understood to be present
after the word conscious to supply the ellipsis in the aphorism.

That which makes manifest without any doubt or error, ४, ¢.,
makes thoroughly manifest, the exact nature of the object pon-
dered is “ Conscious meditation,” (samprajnata samadhi). Samadhi
or meditation is a kind of pondering(éiévana.) The suppression or
exclusion of every function (of the thinking principle) except that
which relates to the subject pondered is Consciousor Discriminative
meditation ; it is thesame with “ Seeded meditation” —savija-sama-
dht. And from there being distinctions of argumentation, &c.,it is of
four kinds, (namely} 18४, the ^^ Argumentative” (savztarka) + 2nd

3

18 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

the “‘ Deliberative” (savichdra); 8rd, the “ Joyous” (sénanda) ; and
4th, the “ Egoistic” (sdsmita). = ^ Pondering” is the taking again
and again into the thinking principle of any particular object
to the exclusion of all other objects. The object to be pondered
is of two kinds ; the Godhead (/s’vara), and the categories or prin-
ciples (¢atévas). The last again are of two kinds according as
they are “irrational” or “ rational.’”’ The irrational are the twen-
ty-four; the rational is the soul.

Among these (the four kinds of meditation), when accepting
the gross elements and the organs as the objects, pondering is
carried on with reference to which is antecedent and which is conse-
quent, and the relation of the words to their meanings, it is called
¢ Argumentative meditation’ (savitarka-samadhi). Should this
pondering, however, be independent of the idea of their antecedence
and their sequence and the relation between their names and
meaning, it would be called ^ Non-argumentative” (nirvitarka).
When pondering is engaged in with reference to something subtile,
as the subtile elements and the internal organ, and to their
qualities in relation to space, time, &c., it is ^ Deliberative”
(savichdra). But should this pondering be in regard to those
subjects themselves, without reference to their relation to time
and space, and simply as substrata of qualities, it is said to be
“Non-deliberative” (nzrvichara). What have been described up
to this time are called Tangible Forms. (Grahya-samdpatti.)

When the quality of goodness of the Internal Organ tinctured
with a little of the qualities of foulness and darkness is pondered,
then consciousness being under the influence of qualities
and the quality of goodness, which is full of the manifestation
of happiness, becomes enlivened, the meditation becomes
“ Joyous” (sézanda). In this (kind of) meditation those of
confined intellect who do not perceive the other (7. ९.) last of
the twenty-five principles, or the chief soul) are indicated by
the word ‘‘bodiless’” (४2442), because they have risen above
their body and egotism. This is the Acceptance Form. (Gra-
hana-samdpatts.)

CHAPTER FIRST. 19

Next, the pondering which has the pure quality of goodness
untainted by foulness and darkness for its object, is called Egoistic
or ontric meditation, (sasmita), because in it, from the enlivening
of the intellectual power, the quality of goodness, which is the
object of the pondering, is disregarded and its existence alone is
perceived. It should not be supposed that there is no difference
between this Ontric meditation and egotism, because where the
Internal Organ knows objects with the use of (the word) I (४, ५.)
with a knowledge of the distinction between itself and the
object before it) it isegotism. But when mere existence is alone
manifest in the thinking principle merged in nature from its reverse
action resulting from its tendency inwards, it isegoism. In this
(last kind of) meditation when contented (beings) do not perceive
the Supreme Soul, and their mind is merged in its true cause, they
are described to be Prakritilaya ‘ resolved into nature.’

Of the persons, who enter into pondering, knowing the
Supreme Soul, the manifestation of intelligence is called the
Form of the taker, Grihitri-samaptte.

Even in the argumentative meditation all the four kinds exist
potentially, and successively as each is abandoned the others
remain, and all these four kinds are Conscious meditation, or that
which has a distinct recognition, samprajnata-samddhi.

{Meditation is described to be of two kinds, Ist, that which
is carried on with a clear understanding of the object reflected
ed upon as distinct from the meditator; and 2nd, that in which
no such distinction obtains and the intellect 1s merged in the soul.
In the former, the subject of the aphorism, there are argumenta-
tion, deliberation, joy, and eguvism, when the objects meditated
upon are irrational objects, such as the first twenty-four of the
twenty-five categoriesof the Saf khya system which the Yoga school
adopts ; and they may not exist when the rational soul is the object.
The first or Argumentative form applies to gross matter; and the
second or the Deliberative appliesto subtile matter. In both these
the quality of goodness plays a subordinate part. When that quali-
ty attains ascendancy the meditation becomes ^ Joyous ;” and it

20 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

ceases to have connection with the body, or technically becomes dis-
embodied. When it prevails without any taint of the foul and the
dark qualities, the thinking principle is then believed to have
merged into primeval nature. This is, however, not the highest
reward, for it does not put an end to transmigration: on the evolu-
tion of creation from nature, the merging ceases, and there is again
a separation. It will be noticed that the first two forms, the
Argumentative and the Deliberative, have their negatives the Non-
argumentative and the Non-deliberative; and these four form a
class called the tangible forms.

The next is the “ Joyous” kind in which the sense of the
existence of the body is lost, and this is called the ^^ acceptance
form.” In this there is no negative form, nor is there any such
distinction in the next kind, the र Egoistic,” in which every thing
is identified with the self. This is called the “acceptor” form.
In all these six kinds of pondering, there is, it will be perceived,
a distinct recognition or consciousness of individuality, and
hence they all come under the term Conscious. When this
consciousness is lost, we come to the next class which forms the
theme of the next aphorism. | ~

The author now describes that form of meditation in which
consciousness is lost, asamprajnata.

XVIII.

The other is that 1n which the residua are ended,

preceded by the exercise of thought as regards the
cause of rejection.

By virama is meant that whereby rejection takes place, 7. ९.)
the abandonment of all anxiety about argumentation &c., (A.
XVII). Pratyaya, “thought,” added to virdma, “ cause of rejec-
tion,” produces the compound expression virdma-pratyaya. Exer-
cise (abhydsa) is reiteration of the idea in the thinking principle.
In this condition of exercise, constantly rejecting with a nega-

CHAPTER FIRST. 21

tive, “not this, not this,” whatever ideas spring up, the result
is the other or Unconscious meditation, or that in which there is
no distinct consciousness, which has nothing left, and in which
the residua are ended. It is the opposite of the former kind, and
it is asamprajndta-samadhi. In this condition there is nothing
to be known, and therefore it is called Unconscious, undiscrimi-
native, or seedless meditation (zrvija).

Now, there are four modifications of the thinking principle,
waking,commencing meditation, concentration, and suppression of
. thought. Thereof (A. II) the waking state belongs to the two
conditions of the thinking principle described as restlessness and
mischievous ignorance. The quality of goodness being on the
ascendant in the condition described as voluptuousness, it is that of
commencing meditation. Concentration and absolute suppres-
sion are the final conditions. Each condition has its residua.
Thereof, those residua which are present in the waking state are
destroyed by those that are produced by the condition of com-
mencing meditation, and those that are brought forth by the
condition of commencing meditation, are destroyed by those due
to the condition of concentration. The residua of the condition
of concentration are destroyed by those of suppression. Even
as lead melted with gold destroys the dross of gold as well as itself,
so do the residua of the condition of suppression consume both
themselves as well as the residua of the condition of concen-
tration.

(The most important word in the aphorism is Safskdra,
and it is just the one which has unfortunately not been ex-
plained either in the commentary of Bhoja, or in the Pdfanjala
Bhashya. In ordinary Sanskrit it has many meanings. In the
Nyaya it occurs frequently in three different senses, viz., velocity
(vega), thinking (dhavand), and elasticity (sthitisthdpaka).
(Tarka-saflgraha). Adverting to the second meaning the Bhasd-
parichchheda, says : ^ 8298} 878, called thinking, (2hdvand,) resides
in sentient beings ; and is imperceptible to the senses, Certainty

22 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

which has no inattention in its constituent, is its cause. It is
also described to be the cause of memory and recognition.”
(Bhavanakhyastu sanskaro jivavrittiratindryah.

Upekshanatmakastasya nischayah kdranam bhavet.

Smarane pratyabhijndyamapyasau heturuchyate.)

Thus it is not memory as rendered by Dr. Roer in his transla-
tion of the Bhashd-parichchheda, for there it is described to be
the causeof memory, and not memory itself. It is not sensation,
nor impression, for it is not transient, but lasting. It is not
perception, because that applies to the acceptance by the senso-
rium of something existing without, and does not serve as the
cause of memory. It is not idea, for it is the result of former
experience, and not spontaneous as an idea may be, nor eternal as
the ancient Greek philosophers supposed ideas to be. Dr. Ballan-
tyne renders it into ^^ self-reproduction of thought ;” but there
is nothing like “ self-reproduction” in it; for it is said to be re-
vived by external stimuli, and not by its own effort. It is some-
thing then—a trace, a mark, acelule, a psychograph—which
perception, whether conscious or unconscious, leaves behind in
the intellect, to be revived afterwards under particular circum-
stances, and it is more or less connected with all intellectual acts
as cause or effect. In the language of Dr. Morell (‘ Mental
Philosophy,’ p. 95) “ When a given mental impression is produced
upon us, it remains for a time before the consciousness, and then
gives way to others. We know, however, that it 13 not absolute-
ly lost ; for,if proper conditions occur, the impression 18 renewed.
The conclusion is, that there must be something deposited within
us which subsists permanently, and which is equally there,
whether it be at any moment the immediate object of our con-
sciousness or not. This something, then, we term a residuum,
using the expression, it will be observed, without implying any
theory on the subject whatever.” The Sanskrit counterpart of this
residuum is Safiskéra. Every sensation, every impression, every
perception, every idea, nay, every dream, leaves its trace behind,
and the traces or residua so obtained constitute the sum total of

CHAPTER FIRST, 93

our experience, and these are Saiiskaras. According to Indian
philosophers these remain not only all life through, but even in
subsequent states of existence, and they are, therefore, believed to
be the cause of our instincts. The new-born infant takes to its
mother’s breast from the saxskara it has in its mind from its
experience in a former existence.

The next word 18 5664, and it, too, has not been fully defined
by the commentators, It means ‘remainder’ ‘ balance,’ or
‘end.’ Compounded with sanskara the meaning is that in which
the remainders are the saiiskaras, or that in which the safiskdras
are ended, or brought toaclose. Bhoja accepts the second meaning,
and he illustrates it by saying that in the state of Unconscious
meditation in its perfection all previous saiskdras or residua of
former conditions, as well as those of the perfect state, are de-
stroyed, even as in the process of cupellation, lead melted with
gold not only destroys the dross existing in impure gold, but
also itself, leaving nothing behind. Thus the Unconscious medita-
tion is seedless or has no object whatever for contemplation.
The Patanjala Bhashya takes a different view. According to it,
in the Unconscious stage all functions are set at rest and the resi-
dua alone remain behind. (Sarva-vpittipratyastamaya-saiiskara-
Seshah nirodhah.) And Vachaspati Misra emphasizes this by ad-
ding the word “alone’—saiisk4ras alone remain—(sanskara-matra
Seshah.) This contradiction may be explained by supposing that
the Patanjala-bhashya has in view a meditation from which
there is awaking, while Bhoja describes the final meditation from
which there is no further waking; for he admits that in the
earlier stages of the Unconscious meditation there are residua
peculiar to it. Yogis admit that people do wake from the Un-
conscious meditation, and that that meditation is often practiced,
and in such eases the safiskéras must remain in a latent state to be
revived by proper stimuli on waking. It is difficult satisfactorily
to decide to what condition Patanjali himself referred to. The
way in which he has used the word 5८56८ would suggest the idea
that he has been correctly interpreted in the Pdtanjala Bhashya.
See A. L. at the end of the chapter.

24 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

The state of Unconscious meditation above described is subject
to the condition precedent, that there should be repeated acts of
contemplation or exercise of thought amounting to a habit, as
regards the necessity of rejecting all causes of disturbance.
Without it the final stage cannot he acquired. This exercise of
thought, however, forms a part of the Unconsious stage, and is
totally unconnected with the Conscious form. Vachaspati Misra
says— the first word in the aphorism (which I have rendered into
^ preceded by the exercise of thought regarding the cause of rejec-
tion,’ and for the sake of idiom put at the end of the sentence) de-
scribes the means, and the other two define the nature of the medi-
tation in question” (purvapaderupayakathanamuttarabhyam cha
svarupa-kathanam). Dr. Ballantyne has mistaken the purport of
the word, and made it the conditio precedent. His version is
‘The one [kind of meditation just described] is preceded by the
exercise of thought in the shape of repose ;—the other [—in-
dependent of any fresh antedecent—] is in the shape of the self-
reproduction [of thought, after the departure of all objects.]”
After what has been stated above, it is obvious that this version
18 not tenable. It may be added that it is not at all usual with
authors of Sadtras to repeat in a subsequent stitra what has been
already explained in a previous one. ]

Having thus stated the distinctions and the nature of Yoga,
and having briefly mentioned the method of performing it, the
author proceeds to speak of those methods more fully.

XIX.

Of (the meditative states attained to by the two
classes of aspirants technically called) the Unem-
bodied and the Resolved into nature, the world is the
cause.

The ^^ unembodied” (४८९८१) and the “resolved into nature”
(prakritilaya) have been described in the aphorism on the argu-
mentative and other forms of meditations (A XVII, pp. 18 f.)

CHAPTER FIRST. 95

Of their meditation the world is the cause. The word dhara-
prataya is formed of bhava ^ world’ and pratyaya ^ cause.’

The meaning is this: that such persons, from their entrance
into the world (on account of their deserts), become participa-
tors of similar (inadequate) meditation. Not being conscient of
ultimate reality, for them this is a mere exercise of the Yoga:
Hence, exertion should be made for the knowledge of the ultimate
reality and in the contemplation thereof, with a view to the
attainment of deliverance. This is the object for which this has
been said.

(In the commentary on aphorism XVII, among the conditions
of Conscious meditation disembodiedness and resolution into
primeval nature have been pointed out as high. Here the
object is to show that those results are secondary, and of the
earth earthy. They do not secure the ultimate end of Yoga.
They are accordingly meditations, of which the world or Prakriti
is the cause. They are, nevertheless, desirable exercises as pre-
paratory to the state in which the ultimate reality is revealed. |

Of others :—

XX.

(In the case) of others this (meditation) is preceded
by Inclination, Energy, Memory, Meditation, and
Discernment.

“Of others” ४. ¢., of Yogis, other than (those who have been
described as) “the disembodied” and “ the resolved in nature.”
^ Preceded by inclination” &c.; that meditation which has
$raddha &c. as the first means, is called sraddhadipurvaka.
These, inclination and the rest, act successively as the means and
the end, ४. ९. they serve as the means or instruments for the Con-
scious meditation. Thereof “ Inclination” (sraddha) is approbation
in favour of the Yoga. = ^ Energy” (virya) is strenuous exertion.
“Memory” (७2070) is not letting out what is once cognised. (A.
XI, p. 12.) “ Meditation” (samdadfi) is intentness on a single point.

4

26 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

८८ Discernment” (prajna@) is thorough understanding of that which
is to beknown. Now, he who has “ Inclination” gets “ Energy,”
or becomes persevering in favour of Yoga. In the condition of
“Energy” comes “Memory” of former states, in which the
thinking principle meditates; and the thinking principle which
has meditated knows thoroughly what it has thought upon. All
these are the expedients of the Conscious form of meditation.
From the (frequent) exercise of that meditation and from extreme
dispassion Unconscious meditation ensues.

[This aphorism explains the practices which should be adopted
by the neophyte in the first stage of his career asa Yogi. He must
have Inclination for the exercise he cannot then undertake. The
Inclination then, must be followed by Energy, or active exertion.
Then there should be Memory of what he has learnt. Next, there
should be frequent exercise of Meditation of some being or other
to bring on the habit for it. And, lastly, there should be clear
Discernment of what should be done and what should be avoided. }

Of the Yogis possessing the above mentioned expedients he
next describes the sub-divisions according to the different ex-
pedients they adopt (for the attainment of their object).

XXI.

Proximate for the ardently impetuous.

(To complete the aphorism the words:) “ The attainment of
the state of meditation” are required to be supplied. ‘ Impetu-
ous” (safivega), energetic exertion for the execution of a work.
८८ Ardent” (¢ivra), excessively, in a high degree. On the part of
those who are thus ardently impetuous, the attainment of Medi-
tation is “ proximate” (5८702). The fruition of Meditation is
also proximate, ४. e., quickly accomplished.

[Having in the preceding aphorism pointed out the practices
to be adopted by Yogis, the author in this lays special stress on the
necessity for ardent application. A lukewarm feeling is not
enough for immediate or early fruition. The application should
be “ ardently impetuous” to ensure quick reward.]

Who are then ardently impetuous? To this he replies.

CHAPTER FIRST. 27

XXIT.

There is a further distinction, from there being the
mild, the moderate, and the excessive.

There are specific distinctions among those who adopt these ex-
pedients, from the mild and other expedients being different. The
divisions of the expedients are “ mild” (१११०४५४), ‘ moderate”
(madhya), and “ excessive’ (adhimdtra). These are severally
threefold, from their being severally subdivided into “ the mildly
impetuous,” “the moderately impetuous” and “ the excessively
impetuous.” And in accordance with this division there are nine
classes of Yogis. The mild expedients are (severally) ‘ mildly
impetuous,” ‘‘ moderately impetuous,” and “ ardently impetuous.”
The moderate expedients are (also) ^ mildly impetuous,” ‘ mo-
derately impetuous,” and ‘ardently impetuous.” The excessive
expedients are (likewise), “mildly impetuous,” ‘ moderately
impetuous,” and “ardently impetuous.” And great endeavours
should be made for the attainment of the “ardently impetuous”
form of the excessive method. So much for the declaration of the
distinctions of Yogis.

(The object of this aphorism is to classify Yogis into different
orders according to their respective arduousness. Some are mildly, `
others moderately, and others ardently disposed, and so each group
forms an order. Again in their mildness and the rest there may
be degrees varying from mildness to moderateness and ardency,
and soeach of the three orders has three sub-divisions, mak-
ing a total of nine groups. The injunction is that Yogis should
exert to pass through the several orders as quickly as possible, so
that the attainment of the final stage may not be delayed. |

Now he mentions an easy expedient, distinct from the preced-

ing expedients.

28 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

Or by devotion to God.
“God” (Fsrara) will be described presently (A. XXIV).

“ Devotion” (pranidhana) isa form of resignationto Him. It 18
thorough worship of Him, and the consignment of all one’s
actions to Him. Without wishing for the fruition of worldly
enjoyments, the making over all one’s actions to Him, the preémi-
nent guide, is ‘‘devotion,” pranidhana. This is an important
means of meditation and of its fruition.

(In this aphorism the author departs from the Safikhya system,
by introducing devotion to God as a facile and ready means of
attaining the end. God, however, 1s not made the end, but the
means to an end of which He forms no integral portion. The theory
of resignation or dedication of the fruits of all actions to Him, 18
evidently borrowed from the Bhakti system in which it plays
the most important part. In entire reliance on the providence of
the Godhead, the Bhakta wishes for no fruition whatever.
Whatever he does is for the service of the Divinity, and He in
His mercy is to grant whatever He thinks proper. In the
Bhagavad Gita this is made the cardinal point of faith, (IX, 27,)
and there it appears quite consistent; but in the Yoga system
Kapila found no necessity for it, and Patanjali adopts it asa
sort of compromise to give atheistic character to his system ; but
it plays only a very subordinate part. ]

It has been just stated that meditation may be achieved
through devotion to God. With reference to this he now proceeds
to declare, in order, the nature (XXIV), the proofs (XXV), the
glory (XXVI), the name (XXVII), and the order of worship of
God (XXIII), as also the fruit thereof (X XIX).

AALV,

God is a particular soul which is untouched by
afflictions, works, deserts and desires.

CHAPTER FIRST, 29

Those things which afflict are “ afflictions” (९८६26), They are
ignorance and the rest about to be described. = ^ Works”
(karma), are what are enjoined or prohibited (in the S’astras), as
also what are mixed, z.e¢., partly one and partly the other.
What ripen out of those works are “ deserts” (vipaka). They
are kind, age and experience. What abide on the field of the
thinking principle until fruition is affected are the residua called
desires (dsaya). ‘‘ Untouched,” (apardmrishta,) free from the
contact in all the three times (past, present and future). "^ Parti-
cular soul” (Purusha-visesha), is that which is distinct from
all other souls, and that is the distinction. ‘‘ God” (4४८7८)
Almighty, or one who is able to grant salvation to creation by the
fiat of His will. It is true that the contact of afflictions does not
obtain in regard to any soul, still the afflictions abide in the
thinking principle of all souls, even as conquest and defeat effected
by soldiers abide in their master. In the case of this Soul there is
no such contact of the afflictions in any of the three tenses; hence
He is especially the Almighty Lord. Such almightiness of His is
due to sempeternal excess of the quality of goodness, This
excess is due for certain to the fulness of His wisdom. Being
separately self-dependent, His wisdom aud almightiness are not
mutually dependent, for they two are eternally abiding in the
substance of the Almighty. His relation to that goodness is
sempeternal, because the union and separation of Prakritz and
Purusha cannot happen except by the will of that Isvara. The
thinking principle in ordinary beings, undergoing modifications
into pleasure, pain and delusion, becomes, on being touched in the
body of the Yogi, by the reflection of the soul, known ; but such
is not the case with Isvara. His superexcellent modification
of goodness abides eternally without a beginning as the sole
object of enjoyment. Hence, being distinct from other souls,
He verily is Iévara. Again, in the case of the liberated soul,
liability to pain and the like is removed by SAstric means (such
as the Yoga, &c.). In His case, however, being always 10 that
condition, there is no correspondence with liberated souls. Nor

is there a multiplicity of Gods, for if we admit their equality
there must be diversity of object, and the object (of the enquiry
into the cause of creation) is defeated ; and if we admit relative
greatness, he who is the greatest, is God, because in Him almighti-
ness attains its highest limit.

[The most important word in the aphorism is J'svara. Derived
from the root J’, it means ‘ ruler’ or ‘ governor,’ but as that is
not very definite, I have preferred the precise and unmistakable
term God, which, though supposed to be derived from good, is
generally accepted in the sense of a ruler.

The next word 18 purusha, which means a man, or the soul of
a man—that which abides (sete) in the body (pure); but it
also means a male simply. Dr. Ballantyne uses spirit as its
equivalent ; but as the dualism indicated by European philoso-
phers between soul or animal life (फण) and spirit, or rational
life (IIvevua) is not recognised by Hindu writers, I have accepted
soul to imply the two collectively. The use of the term shows
that Patanjali did not much care for the Vedantic theory which
denounces the idea of attaching sexuality to the Divinity, and, to
avoid trouble, uses a neuter noun. To prevent misconception he
thinks it quite enough to say that the soul was of a particular
kind, quite distinct from all other kinds, and characterised by
being devoid of all the accidents of humanity. For the sake of
comparison with his definition it may not be amiss to quote here
Udayana Achérya’s summary of the different definitions of the
Godhead given in leading Hindu works. It runs thus:

«४ Now although with regard to that Being whom all men alike

In ordinary beings, the thinking principle is modified into
pleasure, pain and delusion, but in the body of the Yogi, being
touched by the reflection of the thinking principle (in its
purity) it becomes known as reflected. Such is not the case
with [svara. He is, by reason of His eternity, always solely of
the quality of goodness and super-excellence; he exists as the
object (of our meditation). Hence, being distinct from other
souls, He verily 15 8४५१. Again, in the case of the liberated soul,

condition, there is no correspondence with liberated souls. Nor

there must be diversity of object, and the object (of the enquiry
into the cause of creation) is defeated ; and if we admit relative
greatness, he who is the greatest, is God, because in Him almighti-
ness attains its highest limit.

[The most important word in the aphorism is Fsvara. Derived
from the root Fs, it means ‘ruler’ or ‘ governor,’ but as that is
not very definite, I have preferred the precise and unmistakable
term God, which, though supposed to be derived from good, is
generally accepted in the sense of a ruler.

The next word is purusha, which means aman, or the soul of
a man—that which abides (shete) in the body (pure) ; but it
also means a male simply. Dr. Ballantyne uses spirit as its
equivalent ; but in philosophical works it is always used for soul,
and to preserve the spirit of the text I have accepted that word.
The use of the term shows that Patanjali did not much care
for the Vedantic theory which denounces the idea of attaching
sexuality to the Divinity, and to avoid trouble uses a neuter
noun, To prevent misconception he thinks it quite enough to
say that the soul was of a particular kind, quite distinct from all
other kinds, and characterised by being devoid of all the incidents

may not be amiss to quote here Udayana Achdrya’s summary
of the different definitions of the Godhead given in leading Hindu
works. It runs thus :

^ Now although with regard to that Being whom all men alike

may desire,—(thus the followers of the Upanishads as the very

shottoma,—the followers of the Purfnas as the great Father
(Brahmé) ,—the Ceremonialists as the Soul of the sacrifice,—the
Saugatas as the Omniscient,—the Jainas as the Unobstructed,—
the Mimaisakas as Him who is pointed out as to be worship-
ped,—the Charvakas as Him who is established by the conven-
tion of the world,—the followers of the Nydyaas Him who is all
that is said worthy of Him,—-why farther detail ? whom even
the artizans themselves worship as the great artizan, Visvakar-
man,)—although, I say, with regard to that Being, the adorable
Siva, whom all recognise throughout the world as universally
acknowledged like castes, families, family invocations of Agni,
schools, social customs, &c., how can there arise any doubt? and
what then is there to be ascertained ?”—(Cowell’s Kusumdanjali,
p. 2.)

For a theist, intent on proving the existence of the Deity, this
summary is good enough ; but it is not absolutely correct. The
Charvikas do not admit the existence of the Godhead as the
supreme ruler. They are atheists, and do not acknowledge any
Divine supremacy. The Kapilas, though not so outspoken, still
hold that the existence of the Godhead cannot be proved. Kapila,
in the Safikhya aphorisms says, “ It 1s not proved that there is a
God.” (Fs'vardsiddheh 1. 92.) This idea he works out elaborately
in his Fifth Book, and, for ready reference, I quote Dr. Ballan-
tyne’s translations of the aphorisms on the subject.

04. 2.—Not from its [—the world’s—] being governed by
the Lord, is there the effectuation of fruit, for it is by works
[—. e., by merit and demerit—] that this is accomplished,—
[‘‘ by works alone, which are indispensable,” —and if we do make
the additional and cumbrous supposition of a Lord, He cannot
reward a man otherwise than according to his works].

44. 3.-- [17 a Lord were governor, then] having intended his
own benefit, His government [would be selfish], as is the case
[with ordinary governors] in the world.

Aph. 4.—[He must then be} just like a worldly lord, [and]
otherwise [than you desire that we should conceive of Him ; for

32 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

“if we agree that the Lord also is benefited, He also must be
something mundane,—just like a worldly lord ;—because, since his
desires are (on that supposition) not (previously) satisfied, he must
be liable to grief, &c.’’].

Aph. 5.—Or [“ if whilst there exists also a world, there be a
Lord, then, let yours, like ours, be merely”] a technical term
[र for that soul which emerged at the commencement of the
creation,—since there cannot be an eternal Lordship, because of
the contradiction between mundaneness and the having an un-
obstructed will’’].

Aph. 6.—This [that there is a Lord] cannot be established
without [assuming that He is affected by] Passion, because that
is the indispensable cause [of all energizing].

Aph. 7.—Moreover were that [Passion] conjoined with Him,
he could not be eternally free, [‘‘and thus the tenet (of His
eternal freedom) must be surrendered.”’—“ Pray (let us ask)—does
Lordship arise from the immediate union, with Soul, of the
wishes, &c., which we hold to be powers of Nature—(not pro-
perties of Soul—)or from an influence through proximity simply,
—as in the case of the magnet? Of these he condemns the
former alternative’ |.

Aph. 8.—If it were from the conjunction of the properties of
Nature, it would turn out that there is association, [which
aa denies of Soul. ‘In regard to the latter alternative he
says” |.

Aph. 9.—If it were from the mere existence [of Nature, not
in association, but simply in proximity], then Lordship would
belong to every one; [‘‘that is to say,—if Thought obtains
Lordship merely from proximity, as in the case of the magnet
(which becomes affected by the simple proximity of iron), then
it is settled, as we quite intend it should be, that all men indiffer-
ently, experiencers in this or that (cycle of) creation, (may) have
Lordship, because it is just by conjunction with all experiencers
that Nature produces Mind, &c. ;—therefore your tenet, of there
being only one Lord, 15 overthrown”).

CHAPTER FIRST. 33

Aph. 10.—It is not established [that there is an eternal Lord]
because there is no real evidence of it, [—‘in the first place,
there is not sexse-evidence, so that only the evidence of inference
and of testimony can be offered ; and these are inapplicable ;”’ as
he proceeds to show].

Aph.11.—There is no inferential proof [of there being a Lord],
because there is here no case of [invariable] association [between
a sign and that which it might betoken ;—“ and so there is no
inferential proof of there being a Lord ; because, in such argu-
ments as ‘ Mind, or the like, hasa maker, because it is a product,’
the fact of invariable concomitancy is not established, since there
18 no compulsion” that every product should have had an intel-
ligent maker].

Aph. 12.—Moreover, there is scripture for this [world’s] being
the product of Nature [—not of a Lord].” (Sadthya Aphorisms,
pp. 1147)

1 should add here that some K4pilas do not wish openly to
admit their atheism, and appeal for support from the aphorism in
which Kapila says “ The existence of such a Lord is a settled
point,” (III, 5 and 7), meaning by “such” an emergent Lord
who has been absorbed into nature, and who is inno sense the
governor of creation. The greater part of chapter III of the first
book of the Vedanta Satra treats of this subject ; but it is too long
to be quoted here.

The Pdtanjala Bhashya points out the distinction between the
emancipated soul and the Godhead thus: “ If isolation be it, then
would there not be many isolated ones? (Not so.) For the isolated
ones attain their isolation by rending asunder the three bonds,
whereas in regard to God there never was and never can be
such bonds. The emancipated implies previous bondage, but this
cannot be predicated of God. Again, in the case of the resolved
into nature there is possibility of future bondage, but it is not
the case with God—He is sempeternally emancipated and sem-
peternally the Lord.” Kaivalyam praptahstarhi 5००४८ cha baha-

Having described the identity of God, the author next produces
a proof that such a being exists.

XXV.
In Him the seed of the omniscient attains infinity.

In that God the seed of omniscience, as also of parvitude and
magnitude and of knowledge of the knowers of the past, the future
&c., attains its “infinity,” (xzratisaya)* or highest perfection.
Being the source like a seed it is called seed (vija). It is well
known that of the qualities of parvitude and magnitude, which
have degrees, there is an absolute perfection. Thus, the perfection
of parvitude is seen in atoms, and that of magnitude in the sky.
In a similar manner knowledge and other manifest attributes of
the thinking principle compared with each other must somewhere
attain the highest perfection, and wherever they are in the
highest perfection, that is God. Although from the general
character of this inference no precise being is proved, yet in the
84817128 His omniscience and other qualities may be precisely
learnt.

But how does He, without any impulse of Hisown,cause the union
and separation of Prakriti and Purusha? Such a doubt should
not be entertained. Being merciful, He finds in His mercy to
creation the impulse. His impulse isthe wish “TI shall rescue all
creation (from pain) at the periodical minor and great pralayas.”
What ever is desirable to one, is his impulse.

[The logical force of this aphorism is not apparent. Itis a
mere assertion, and can scarcely be taken as a proof, as the Com-
mentator puts it foryvard to be. He himself felt the difficulty,
and escaped out of it by appealing to the authority of the SAstra.

* Niratisaya, limitness, greatness, or infinity.

CHAPTER FIRST. 35

The S4stra here referred to is the Séfkhya, and the P. Bhéshya
quotes a passage from the work of Panchagikha which shows
that “the first knower, lord, and great sage, with a view
to creation, in his mercy taught this science to the enquirer
Suri.” Mdividvannirmanachittamadhishthdya karunydt bha-
gavan paramarshi résuraye jijndsumdndya tantram pravacheti.
The first knower is Kapila, who, being an incarnation of Vishnu,
obtained the science from Sayambhu or Maheévara.]

Having thus described the identity and proof of the existence
of God, the author refers to His greatness.

XXVI.

He is the instructor of even all early ones, for He is
not defined by time.

Even of the primary creators such as Brahma and others, he is
the “ instructor,” or preceptor, because ^ He is not defined by
time,” for He has no beginning, while the others are so defined,
having a beginning.

[The word guru has been translated “ instructor” in accordance
with the text, and after the commentator who supplies the equi-
valent upadeshtd. It may be more appropriately rendered into
noblest” or “ greatest,” as it would make the reason assigned, un-
defined by time, more consistent, for want of beginning, or being
not circumscribed by time, does not imply tuition. The object of
the explanation, however, is to refer to the first tutor Mahesvara to
whom reference has been made in the last note. Inthe P. Bhashya
no equivalent is given of the word, but the sense is explained by
the word yathdsya sargasyddau prakarsha-gatydsiddhak, tathd-
tikranta-sargadisvapi pratyetavyah.

Vachaspati Misra explains the term by prakarsha “ superior :”
na vartate prakarshdsya gatih praptih pratyetavya dgamat tadanena
prabandhena bhagavanisvaro darsitah

In giving the purport of the aphorism he uses the words
Samprati bhavatah brahmadibhyah viseshamaha.]

36 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

Having thus described the greatness of God, the author now
supplies His indicator, with a view to help people in their
devotion.

XXVII.
His indicator is the Pranava.

Of the Iévara thus described, the “ indicator,” name, expressive
word, whereby one is thoroughly (yra=prakarshena) lauded (nu)
or praised, glorified, or hymned is—pranava, which is the same
with the syllableOm. (The sentence indirectly gives the deriva-
tion which is pra = “ excessive” and xu = “ to laud,” whence
Pranava). Between the two (the name and the being denomi-
nated) the relation of the indicator and the indicated is eternal.
This is conventionally expressed, but not produced by any one ;
(it is the same) as in the case of a father and his son, when one
points out the existing relation (by saying) “this is the father,
and this is the son,” (though the relationship exists from before,
and is not produced by the saying.)

[Pranava is the technical name of Om, and the injunction is
that that syllable should be frequently muttered. Care is taken
to show that the relation between the indicator Om and the
indicated God is eternal and not produced by man, and the
example of the father and son explains what is intended. The
Vedas, the Upanishads and all Hindu works recommend the same
process, accepting the term as the most sacred name of the Divinity.
See Chhandogya Upanishad, ChapterI. In two short notes, pub-
lished in the ‘Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal’ for
1865, pp. 46—208, I take the word to be the Indianized form
of the Hebrew Aman and the English Amen. |

His adoration is next enjoined.

XXVIII.

Its repetition and the reflection on its meaning
(should be made).

CHAPTER FIRST. 37

Tts,” 2, e., of the Pranava, consisting of three and a half
instants, ^^ Repetition” (gapa), pronouncing it in due order, and
the “ Reflection” (dhdvana), the perception repeatedly of the God
indicated by it, are the means of concentration of the thought in
it. Hence, for the accomplishment of meditation (samadhi) the
Pranava should be repeated, and its meaning reflected upon
by a Yogi. This is declared.

(Om is ordinarily declared to be a compound of the letters ख
(a) ड (प) and म (10), which supply the three instants, and the con-
version of the m into the nasal mark “ supplies the half instant.
In prosody the word is a long syllable, but in modulated reading
or recitation its prosodial quantity 18 a protracted circumflex
sound. |]

The fruit of such adoration is next described.

XXIX.

Thence the right knowledge of the reverted percep-
tion, and the removal of obstacles.

From that repetition and that reflection the nght knowledge
of the “reverted perception” (pratyakchetand) is effected in the
case of Yogis. That “perception” (chetand) or power of seeing,
which turns towards its own internal organ, withdrawing itself
from (orin opposition to worldly) objects, is called “ reverted
perception” (pratyak “turning back,” chetana “ perception”) -
anda “right knowledge” (adkigama) of it is thereby acquired.
The “ removal” (abidva),z.e., the counteraction of the power of
the obstacles about to be described is also effected.

[The natural function of the senses is to extend outwards, in
order to receive the impressions of external objects and carry
them to the sensorium, but that being suppressed by the Yogi,
the senses turn inwards and find their object within, and therefore
the function is called reversed, or reflex. The object of this round-
about way of description is to say that the senses hold communion
exclusively with the soul.]

38 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.
Now, 9 doubt arising as to what are the obstacles ? he says :—

XXX.

Disease, Langour, Doubt, Carelessness, Idleness,
Worldly-mindedness, Mistaken notions, Unattainment
of any stage of abstraction, and Instability therein ;
these, causing distractions, are the obstacles.

These nine, impelled by the force of foulness and darkness,
become the causes of “ distractions,” ४, €.) by these enemies to
concentration the thinking principle is disturbed. Of the nine :—

(1) “Sickness” (vyddhz) is fever and the like, resulting from
disordered humours.

(2) “Langour” (stydua) is an indisposition of the thinking
principle to work.

(3) ^ Doubt” (saiiSaya) is the disposition of the thinking
principle which relies on both sides of a question, as whether
Yoga is practicable or not.

(4) Carelessness” (pramdda) is a disposition not to exert,
or indifference in performing meditation.

(5) «^ Idleness” (d/asya) is a heaviness of the body and of
the thinking principle, which is the cause of want of interest in
matters relating to Yoga.

(6) ^ Worldly-mindedness” (avirati) is the inclination of the
thinking principle to enjoy the pleasures of the world.

(7) “Mistaken notion” (b47dntidarsana) is wrong percep-
tion, such as taking a bit of mother-o’pearl to be silver.

(8) ^ Unattainment of any stage” (alabdha-bhimikatva) 18
not attaining, for some cause or other, a particular stage of
abstraction.

(9) “Instability” (anavasthitatva) is the condition in which
the thinking principle having attained a stage cannot abide in it.

These being opposed to the practice of concentration of medita-
tion, are called ^ obstacles,” (antardydh).

To shew that there are other causes which produce distraction
of the mind, he says :-—

CHAPTER FIRST. 39

XXXI.
Pain, Distress, Trembling, Inspiration and Expira-
tion are the companions of distractions.

Whenever from any cause distractions are produced then pain
&९,, come on. Thereof—

(1) “Pain” (dukkha) isa modification of the foulness of
the thinking principle; it is characterised by pain, which
living beings exert to remove.

(£) Distress’ (daurmansya) 18 the agitation of the mind
proceeding from external or internal causes.

(3) “Trembling” (afgamejaytva) is the shaking of the body
which causes unsteadiness in the posture (of a Yogi).

(4) “Inspiration” (svdsa) is a drawing in of the external
air. The expulsion of the air from the lungs is “ expiration”
(prasvdsa).

These existing along with the (other) distractions, should be
removed by the exercise and dispassion already described; (A. XII)
and therefore they are noticed here

[Pain here referred to is described in the Pétanjala Bhashya
as of three kinds: mental, physical and supernatural. That
which affects the mind without touching the body is mental,
that which proceeds from disorders in the body is physical, and
that which proceeds from evil spirits &c., is supernatural. The
Sdfkhya Karika notices all the three. (Wilson’s Séfkhya
Kariké, p. 2.)

The Pdtanjala Rahasya gives pidd ‘ disease’ as the equivalent
of Dukkha.}

Another expedient for overcoming the obstacles with their
accompaniments is now being pointed out.

XXXII.

For their prevention let there be exercise on one
principle.

4.0 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

For the “ prevention” (pratishedha )or obstruction of those
distractions, let there be ^^ exercise” (abAydsa) or repeated applica-
tion of the thinking principle to some one selected “ principle,”
(¢attva), from the force resulting from which arise the condition
of concentration, and thereby the distractions subside.

[In former aphorisms meditation has been declared to be of two
kinds: conscious and unconscious, or seeded and seedless. The
object here is to inculcate the necessity of constant exercise of
the first, or the seeded form, to steady the mind, and prepare it
for the more arduous and difficult phase in which there should be
no object upon which to meditate, or the state in which, in the
language of Wordsworth, “thought is not.” The highest form
of conscious meditation is intelligent communion with the soul,
but this too is not at once practicable, and the instruction is that
any one of the twenty-five categories may be taken up for medita-
tion, so that the mind may be trained to the habit of concentra-
ting itself at any one point at pleasure, and of remaining in that
state of concentration without fatigue. ]

Now he describes another expedient with advertence to certain
works which help to purify the thinking principle.

XXXITI.

The cheerfulness of the thinking principle, through
friendliness, compassion, complacency and 1411
ference in regard to happiness, grief, virtue and vice.

< Friendliness” (maztri) disposition to be friendly. ^^ Compas-
sion,” (karund) mercy. ‘ Complacency” (muditd) to be pleased.
^ Indifference” (upekshd) to feel neither pleasure nor pain. These
feelings should be felt, in due order, for the happy, the grieved,
the virtuous, and the sinful. Thus, to the happy one should be
friendly, (saying) ^ blessed is their happiness ;” and not be envious
tothem. For personsin grief he should show mercy, and desire
how to relieve them from their grief, and not remain indifferent to
their suffering. To the virtuous, with a view to encourage virtue,
he should express satisfaction, and not be envious of them (say-

CUAPTER FIRST. 41

ing) “ Forsooth, are these virtuous”? For the vicious a feeling of
indifference should be practised, neither encouraging nor hating
them. In the aphorism, the word “ happiness” &c. are intended to
stand for persons possessing those qualities, These feelings
of friendliness &c.,producing cheerfulness in the thinking principle,
easily bring on the condition of Samadhi. These acts are external
(and not intrinsic parts of the Samadhi). Even as in arithmetic,
addition and the like are useful in the calculation of alligation, &c.,
(but are not in themselves integral parts of the main object), so the
feelings of friendship, &c., antagonistic to envy, passion &c., pro-
ducing cheerfulness, prepare the thinking principle for the con-
scious form of Samfdhi. Passion and envy are the chief causes of
distractions. When these are thoroughly eradicated, the cheerful-
ness induced, effects the concentration of the mind (to one object).

[The Aphorism suggests a second expedient that of cheerfulness.
Unless the mind is cheerful it cannot be steady, and this cheer-
fulness is to be brought on by friendliness towards the happy, com-
passion for those who are in distress, complacency in regard to
virtue, and indifference in respect to vice. Indifference in
respect to vice might at first sight appear a very mild feeling,
but hatred, detestation or other strong manifestation of feeling
towards vice would mar cheerfulness, and itself be a cause of
pain and uunsteadiness ; hence it is avoided. }

He points out another expedient.

XXXIV.
Or by expulsion and retention of the breath.

^ Expulsion,” (prachchhardana) means the throwing out of
the air from the lungs ina fixed quantity through a special
effort. ^^ Retention” (vididrana) is the restraint, or stoppage of
the motion of breath for a certain limited time. That stoppage
is effected by two acts—by filling the lungs with external air, and
by retaining therein the inhaled air. Thus the threefold prand-
४१८, including the three acts of expiration, inspiration and
retention of breath, fixes the thinking principle to one point of

6

4.2 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

concentration. All the functions of the organs being preceded
by that of the breath—there being always a correlation of
breath and mind in their respective functions,—the breath when
overcome by stopping all the functions of the organs, effects
the concentration of the thinking principle to one object. The
Agama proclaims its power of destroying all defects thus:
** All obstructive functions are caused by faults.”” Hence, by
its destroying faults, it becomes effectual in producing concentra-
tion of the mind.

[The definition of “retention” (vzdhdrana) by the terms
^ stoppage of motion” (gativichchheda) is obviously faulty, but
as the aphorism refers to ^^ retention’? immediately after the
“expulsion” (prachchhardana) and the attempt to retain the
breath after it has been fully expired would be futile, it is
necessary to inspire before the breath can be retained, and the com-
mentator is obliged to include that act along with the retention.
The Patanjala Bhashya calls the retention to be Prandyama
(vidhdrana prindyamah), and in the Séfkhya Siitra this meaning
is accepted. It is, however, not the generally accepted mean-
ing. All other Yogic and Tantric works regard the three acts of
expiration, inspiration and retention performed in specific order,
to constitute the Pranayama. The order is not always the same.
Some have expiration first, inspiration next, and retention last,
Others place inspiration first, retention next, and expiration last.
The word matrapramana in the commentary, which I have
rendered into “ fixed quantity,” has been rendered into sva/pa or
“little” or “ slowly” in the Patanjala Bhashya ; but it does not ex-
press the true technical meaning. The object of the matra is to
imply a fixed period of time. According to the Skanda Purfna a
matra is equal to the time required in one breathing, (Eka érdsa-
map maitre prinaydme nigadyate), and to imply that this
breathing must be natural, the Yoga-chintdmani adds that this
breathing should be during sleep (when there is no violent effort).
Nidrdvasangatasya 1750 yavatkdlenaikagvdso gachchhatydgach-
chhats cha tavathalaprindydmasya mdtretyuchyate.) And this

CHAPTER FIRST. 4.3

period is equal to two anda half palas. (Sirddha svdsa palad-
vayatmakah kalah, pradndydma kdla siddhah.) The pala here
means the period occupied by a twinkling of the eye. The mdéré
is obviously taken as a unit, and of these from 1 to 24 are devoted
to a pranéy4ma according as it is inferior, middling, or superior.
The mode of reckoning the time to be devoted to each act is regu-
lated in one of two ways ; Ist, by so many repetitions of the syllable
Om, or the mystic mantra of the performer, or the specific mystic
syllables (vfja) of that mantra; 2nd, by turning the thumb and
the index finger of the left hand round the left knee a given number
of times. The time devoted to inspiration is the shortest, and to
retention the longest. A Vaishnava in his ordinary daily prayer
repeats the Vija mantra once while expiring, 7 times while inspir-
ing, and 20 times while retaining. A Sakta repeats the mantra
16 times when inspiring, 64 times while retaining, and 32 times
while expiring. ‘These periods are frequently modified. The
details vary according to each particular form of meditation,
and the capacity of the performer. As a general rule it may be
said that longer is the retention the more proficient becomes the
Yogi. The usual mode of performing the Préniy4ma is, after as-
suming the posture prescribed, to place the ring-finger of the right
hand on the left nostril, pressing it so as to close it, and to expire
with the right, then to press the right nostril with the thumb, and to
inspire through the left nostril, and then to close the two nostrils
with the ring-finger and the thum, and to stop all breathing. The
order is reversed in the next operation, and in the third act the
first form is required. This constitutes the Prandydma, and it may
be repeated after short intervals according to choice for hours. The
object avowed of this performance is the steadying of the mind.
The Hatha-dipikd philosophises on this by saying, “ by the motion
of the breath, the thinking principle moves; when that motion is
stopped, it becomes motionless, andthe Yogi becomes firm as the
trunk of a tree; therefore the wind should be stopped. As long
as the breath remains in the body so long it is called living.
Death is the exit of that breath, therefore it should be stopped.”

44 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

(“ Chale vate chalam chittam nischale nischalam bhavet, Yogt
sthanutvamdpnoti tato vdyumni rodhayet. Yavad vdyuh sthito
dehe tabajjivanamuchyate, Maranam tasya nishkrantistato vayum

Elsewhere the text asserts that this Pripdy4ma is conducive
both to health and longevity, and all minor works on Yoga and
the Tantras generally expatiate at great length on the sani-
tary and the therapeutic advantages of practising it regularly at
stated times. The Hatha-dipika, in one place, says, “all diseases
disappear in him who devotes himself to the Pranfyéma; without
it in the state of practising Yoga every kind of disease arises.”
(Prandydmadiyuktena sarvaroga kshayo bhavet, ayuktdébhyasa-
yogena sarvaroga samudbhavak. The ideaseems to have travelled
to the far West, and the spiritualists in America have accepted
it as a recognised maxim of their system. Many spiritualists
practice this Prdndydma under the name of “ deep breathing,”
and A. J. Davis, one of their apostles, in his ^ Harbinger of
Health” (pp. 52-53), gives the following directions for curing
diseases through its means.

* First, if your weakness be general, and the blood is loaded
with cold matter, lay flat down on your back, and, while breath-
ing deep, and slow, and untformly, WILL YOURSELF TO BECOME
HEALTHY—in your feet and hands, in your knees and elbows, in
your hips and shoulders, in your bowels and liver, in your lungs
and brain! The heart will take care of itself. In cases where the
weakness is generally distributed, all you are required to practice
(while so prostrated and respiring) is the art of concentrating
your Will and desires simultaneously on the extremeties first ;
then work upward and ziward progressively ; and when, in the
lapse of ten minutes of steady, deep breathing, you have reached
the brain, repeat the process in the ascending scale, as indicated
in the manner aforementioned.

“ By this Pneumogastric treatment of yourself, you will receive
spiritual strength from the air—nothing is more certain! When,
by practice, you can breathe deeply and heroically, and at the

CHAPTER FIRST. 45

same time put your Will upon the restoration of the general
system, the art of fixing your mind upon some particularly
diseased part will become less and less difficult. Consumptive
persons, by simply breathing profoundly, and willing systemati-
cally, may enlarge their chests and lungs beyond the possibilities
of disease. Persons of cold temperature, with irregular habits
and bad practices, may “right about face” and become har-
monially healthy. Learn to depend upon yourself—use the
infallible remedies of Nature—and, in spite of priest or doctor,
you will ‘ pass from death unto life.’

“Time OF EXxERCISES.—In acquiring this psychological power
over the destinies of your bodily state, and in becoming a Self-
healing Institution, whether home or abroad—it may be neces-
sary to practice (either while on your back, or standing, or
walking, or riding,) perhaps three times in each twenty-four
hours. Never just before meals, nor soon subsequent to them;
but the true time is when chilification is going on; abont 90 or
120 minutes after eating. The spirit world will aid you, by
forming a secret conjunction with the pxeumogastric conductor.
It is certain, gentle sufferer; do not permit yourself to doubt.
Nothing is too good in Nature, in matter, in spirit, or in truth.”’]

In pointing out another expedient, he foreshadows the con-
scious form of meditation.

XXXYV.

Or cognition resulting from sensuous objects may be
the cause of steadiness.

‘Of the mind” (manasa is understood to) complete the sentence.
“Sensuous objects” (vishaya) are odour, taste, colour, touch and’
sound, and that in which these reside as objects is vishayavati,
the cognition whereof causes the steadiness of the mind. Thus,
by directing the thinking principle to the tip of the nose, the cogni-
tion of spiritual odour is effected. In the same way the cognition
of taste may be effected at the tip of the tongue, the cognition of
colour at the forepart of the palate, the cognition of touch at the

46 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

middle of the tongue, and the cognition of sound at the root of
the tongue. Thus the cognition of spiritual sense-objects result-
ing through one or other of those organs becomes the cause of
the concentration of the mind. This is to encourage Yogis in
the belief that the Yoga has a fruit. ©

[By thiscommentary the meaning of the text remains perfectly
unintellegible to the uninitiated. The reason is, the commen-
tator takes for granted that the rudimentary principles of Yoga
are known to his readers. The purport is that in the act of
Pranfy4ma (as explained in A. XXXIV) when the Yogi directs his
mind to the tip of his nose &c., he derives in the places mentioned a
sense of those objects which is ordinarily acquired by their natural
organs, and having done so, he feels no inclination to exercise
those natural organs, and his mind settles down into undisturbed
contemplation of the object to which he directs his mind. The
commentator uses the word divya for which I use “ spiritual” as
the equivalent. The P. Rakasga uses alaukika or “ supernatural”
as the equivalent. The word prarritti in the text has been taken
by the P. Bhasya to be equal to sazivit or cognition. In the
commentary above and elsewhere the word manas mind has been
sometimes used for ८८८८९, thinking principle}.

He describes another expedient of the same kind.

XXXVI.

Or a sorrowless extremely luminous (disposition
being produced causes the steadiness of the thinking
principle).

(The sense of the aphorism must be completed) by the terms,
९ disposition being produced causes the steadiness of the thinking
principle.”

The word “lumen” (jyotzs) means the manifestation (of the
quality) of goodness. When it exists in its fulness, in any disposi-
tion it 18 called “extremely luminous” disposition (jyotismati).
८८ Sorrowless” (visoka) is that disposition in which the power resul-
ting from the exercise of the delightfully pure element (goodness)

CHAPTER FIRST. 47

has removed the grief which is produced by the quality of foulness.
It steadies the thinking principle. The purport of this is this :—
when the thinking principle is in the quality of goodness located
in the cup of the lotus heart as on the waveless milky ocean, and
the sensuous functions are all destroyed by the light of know-
ledge, the steadiness of the thinking principle results as a matter
of course.

[ Briefly, the purport is that when the thinking principle is
totally griefless, and manifest in the extreme refulgence of the
quality of goodness, it is steady, and has no cause for vacillation. ]

In course of pointing out another expedient, he describes the
object of the conscious form of meditation—or discriminate
meditation.

XXXVII.

Or. the thinking principle taking a passionless
object (becomes the cause of the mind’s steadiness).

The phrase “becomes the cause of the mind’s steadiness” is
understood to complete the sentence.

“The Passionless” (vifaraga) are those who have abandoned
all longings for sensuous objects, and their thinking principle,
which has destroyed all pain, by being made the object of thought,
becomes the cause of steadiness.

[The next expedient is the making the thinking principle of
those who have overcome all passions the object of contemplation.
Vachaspati Misra explains this by saying “ the passionless are
Krishna Dvaipfyana and others. To make their thinking
principle the object of thought is to rely thereon. Vétaragdh
Krishnadvaipayana prabhritayah. Tesham chittam tadevavalam-
banam, tenoparaktamits. ||

He describes another expedient of this kind.

XXXVITI.

Or reliance on knowledge resulting from dream or
sleep.

48 APTIORISMS OF PATANSJALI.

“ Dream” (svapna) is the perception by the thinking principle
alone of the soul’s agency when the functions of the external
organs are dormant. ‘‘ Sleep” (एकाद) has heen already defined
(A. X). The knowledge which results from “ reliance’ thereon,
t. é., reliance on dream or reliance on sleep, produces steadiness
of the thinking principle.

[ Although sleep has been defined to be absence of consciousness,
the Yogis believe absence of consciousness to be a kind of know-
ledge. (See. A. X,) Vachaspati Misra gives an illustration to show
how the beatific vision of an image of Mahesvara may, on wak-
ing, tend to steady the thinking principle in the contemplation of
any particular object. Perfectly sound sleep of which on waking
we know only that we have slept well and nothing more, is also
favorable to steadiness in the same way, perfect calmness of the
mind being thereby produced. |
¡ Different men having different tastes, Yogis may affect each a
different expedient according to choice, and by meditating there-
on attain his object (sci/. steadiness of mind). To stablish this
he says—

XXXIX.

Or by meditating according to one’s fancy.

By thinking on anything according to choice, whether external,
as the moon, or internal, asa plexus of arteries, the thinking
principle becomes steadied.

(The object of this aphorism is to show that by constantly
reflecting on any object of choice, the habit is acquired of keep-
ing the thinking principle confined to one object. The choice of
course does not extend to carnal objects, for they would tend
to excite, instead of allaying, the passions. The moon, or the
sun, or other similar object has no such tendency, and certain
plexuses within the chest and the abdomen which are believed
to be the seats of the thinking principle, are held particularly bene-
ficial in producing steadiness. |

Having thus described the different methods, he proceeds to
point out what the fruit thereof is.

CHAPTER FIRST. 49

XL.

His mastery extends from the minutest atom to the
limit of infinite magnitude.

Having by these means acquired steadiness of the thinking prin-
ciple, the Yogi, by thinking on minute objects, acquires unfailing
५ mastery” (vasikara) over the minutest atoms, ४, ९.) his thinking
principle is not baffled even by the reflection of the most minute
objects, such as the minutest atoms. In the same way, the reflec-
tion of big objects, like the sky &c., to infinite magnitude, never
causes any disturbance of the thinking principle, ४ ८.) it becomes
independent everywhere. Such is the meaning.

[The purport is obvious. When steadiness is once fully
acquired, the thinking principle acquires mastery over every thing,
and nothing can baffle it. The result of this perfect nature is
transcendantal power over all material and spiritual objects:
of this full illustrations will follow in Chapter III. The P.
Bhashya adds that when the thinking principle of the Yogi is
perfect in this respect, it does not any longer care for the appli-
ances of exercise elsewhere enjoined. Tadvasikarat paripurnam
yoginagchittam na punarabhyasakritam parikarmapekshate iti.]

What becomes of the condition of the thinking principle purified
by these methods, he now proceeds to describe.

XLI.

To him of overpowered faculties, there area con-
centration and a consubstantiation in (matters relating
to) the perceiver, the means of perception, and the
perceivable, as in a transparent gem.

He, whose faculties have been overpowered, is “ of overpowered
faculties” (kshinavritti). With reference to him there is, in
regard to the objects of his faculties, no distinction about the per-
ceiver, the means of perception, and the perceivable, and there
result a “concentration” and a “ consubstantion.” Tatsthatva is
concentration in it, (ekagrata). = ^ Consubstantiation” (¢adania-

7

50 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

natva) is becoming of it, for when the thinking principle is
lowered, (or reduced in its carnal functions in the way described,)
the object of meditation attains superiority. The meaning 1s,
that such a condition (samdpatt:), or modification to that form,
results,

Of this an example is given. In the case of “a transparent
gem” or clear rock-crystal jewel, whatever colour it dwells upon,
the same it obtains. In the same way in the transparent, clear
thinking principle the form of the object thought of is imposed.

Although the text gives the perceiver, the means of perception,
and the perceptible, but, according to the order of precedence, the
terms should be understood to stand as if written “ perceptible,
means of perception, and perceiver,” for first the meditation is
directed to the perceivable ; then it is devoted to the perception ;
and then it is confined to the perceiver, which is mere egoism ; for
in the ease of the soul alone there can be no thinking. Even so,
the thinking principle tinged by a substantial or a subtile object
of perception assumes its character. In this sense the condition
is implied also to the perceived.

[The word kshina in the text means weakened, but this weak-
ness is not general ; according to the P. Rahasya it is confined to
those subjects which are not thought of, the power remaining in
full force in connexion with the special object of thought:
kshina-critteh dlambanavishayatirikta = vishayanirupita = vritti-
sunyasya. Tatsthatva 18 literally being in a thing, éat ‘ there,’ and
stha “to be reposited ;” but the commentator gives the equivalent
concentration, ekagrata. Tadanjanatva is literally being tinged
thereby, and the stock illustration of the crystal being coloured
red by the shoe-flower placed in it is adduced; but the com-
mentator prefers the equivalent tanmayatva “ being of that sub-
stance.” He is, however, not singular in these interpretations.
The ए. Bhdshya amplifies the explanation by adding that when
the soul, as agent or perceiver, is made the object of thought, the
thinking principle becomes manifest in the special form of that
soul, and when the emancipated soul is thought upon the think-

CHAPTER FIRST. 51

ing principle becomes of its special form. Grihitripurushdlam-

Having explained the conditions, he now points out its four-
fold differences (in three aphorisms.)

XLII.

The argumentative is that which is influenced by
the fancy of word, meaning, and understanding.

That which is perceivable by the organ of hearing, or is an
explosion or bursting of sound (sphofa), is (technically sound or)
*‘ word” (Sabda). ‘‘ Meaning” (artha) is (the sense conveyed
by the word indicating) a genus (such as the cow or the horse).
^^ Understanding” (jndaza) is a function of the intellect in which
the quality of truth prevails (in preference to the other two
qualities). ^^ Fancy” (vikalpa) has been already defined (A. IX)
^^ Affected” (saf#kirna) influenced by them, ए. ¢., by the three,
words &. That modification, in which the three (words &c.)
are apparent in an undefined fanciful shape, (४. ९.) their relations
are doubtful in the mind), as the word gau “a cow,” meaning a cow,
and conveying the notion of a cow, is called ‘ argumentative,”
(savitarka.)

(The conditions adverted to in the preceding aphorism are four-
fold, and thereof the first is called argumentative, inasmuch as tn
that condition the thinking principle fancies or doubtfully accepts
a thing without positive discrimination of the relations between a
word or its meaning and the idea conveyed by it. The P. Bhashya
explains it by saying, ^ Gaw is the word, a cow is its meaning»
and the idea is that of a cow, and accepting these distinct posi-
tions in an undivided form.” Gaurits 8abdo Gaurityartho Gaurits

jnanamityavibhagena vibhaktandmapi grahanam drisktam. The
P. Rahasya puts it more clearly by saying “ when on hearing the
word there is a doubt as to whether the gau is a word, or it 18

52 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

@ meaning, or it is an understanding. Gauriti s’abde s'rute sate
gauriti 54640 ०८ gaurityartho va gauriti jndnam va evamvikalpak.
(See p. 18.) This is an inferior condition.

The word sphofa, which I have rendered into “ bursting,” is
the technical name of the sound which is eternal, and of which
spoken words are but manifestations. The theory of some
grammarians is that words are eternal, and they become manifest
when spoken. Dr. Ballantyne, in his essay on Hindu Philosophy,

has given a full account of this dogma. ]
The opposite of it or the non-argumentative is next de-
scribed.

XLITT.

That is non-argumentative in which, on the disso-
lution of memory, the meaning alone without any
definite identity is apparent.

When the memory of words and of their meaning has subsided,
and the shape rises manifest and distinctly graspable, excluding
the sense of understanding, and appearing as if devoid of a definite
identity, it is “ non-argumentative.”

(The P. Bh&shya explains the purport thus: when the intellect,
intent upon the form of the object of acceptance, forsakes the
accepting understanding which is like itself, and becomes solely
of the form of the object, ४. ¢., it becomes of the form of the
object accepted, it is non-argumentative. Grdhyasvaripoparaktd
prajnd svamiva prajndripam grahandtmakam tyakté padartha-
matrasvarupa grahyasvariupdpanneva bhavati sa nirvitarkd
samapatti. |

To indicate varieties of it, he says :

XLIV.
By this the deliberative and the non-deliberative as
pertaining to subtile objects are also described.
“By this,” 2. ¢., by the explanation about the argumentative
and the non-argumentative conditions, the deliberative (savickdrd)

CHAPTER FIRST. 53

and the non-deliberative (nzrvichdéra) conditions have been descri-
bed. How are the latter? “ Subtile objects,” (sukskmavisaya)—
“‘subtile’ rudimentary matter and the organs are so called. By
this the former two propositions are made to refer to gross objects.
They are dependant on gross matter, whether connected with the
ideas of words, meaning, and understanding (as in the case of the
argumentative form,) or without them (as in the non-argumenta-
tive form.) ‘‘ The deliberative” (savichérd) is that which is an
abstract notion defined by place, time, quality, &c. ‘The non-
deleberative” (xirvichard) is that in which the abstract notion is .
manifest as a mere substratum of quality, perfectly independent of
all ideas of place, time, quality, &c. These refer to subtile objects.
{The object aimed at is to assign the argumentative and the
non-argumentative conditions to gross matter, and the delibera-
tive and the non-deliberative to subtile objects. The distinction
seems to be purely technical, implying only slight differences. ]
To explain how far this subtile object extends, he says:

XLV.

This subtile objectivity terminates in the indisso-
luble.

What has been described about the object of the deliberative and
the non-deliberative conditions being subtile objectivity extends
to the indissoluble. That which does not merge into anything,
nor indicates or implies anything is the ^ Indissoluble’”’ (a/:fga)
or First Principle (nature, Prakriti), and subtile objectivity
extends to that limit. Now in the resolution of qualities,
there are four stages, viz., 1, defined character, (visishta
114) ; 2, undefined character (avisish{alifiga) ; 3, mere
character (liftyamdtra) ; 4, devoid of character, or indissoluble,
(22112). The objects of defined character are the (gross) elements.
Those of undefined character are the subtile elements and the
organs. Mere character is indicative of the Intellect; and
devoid of character, the First Principle. Hereby it is said that
there is nothing more subtile than the First Principle. |

54 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

[The word (14 has been defined to be that which indicates
or characterises, a mark or sign which is inseperable from it,
and, I believe, the word character is its nearest equivalent. The
First Principle or Prakriti is called a/:fga or that which is with-
out anindicator, because by itself it does not specifically indicate
anything, and is the subtlest of the categories, and there is
nothing more subtile. “It may be urged,” argues the P.
Bhashya, “ that the soul is more subtile than the first principle,
but, though it is true that the characterless (a/zfga or Prakriti)
is more subtile than the characterised, still the same cannot be the
case with the soul, since thesoul is not the material but the in-
strumental cause of character, and therefore the utmost limit of
subtility must rest with the First Principle.” = १८१४८७८० purushak

am vyakhyatam.]

He now points out the necessity for these mental conditions.

XLVI.

These verily constitute meditation with a seed.

“‘These verily,” 2, ९.) the conditions above described, exist
with a seed or object. ‘“‘ With a seed,” (savija} means conscious
meditation, (or Samadhi having a distinct recognition,) because
such meditations have always something to rest upon.

[These four conditions have been already described - 10 the
commentary on Aphorism XVII, and call for no further re-
marks here. }

Now, these (conscious conditions) maturate into the non-deli-
berative condition, and therefore he describes the fruit thereof.

XLVII.

In the purity of the non-deliberative (condition)
there is intellectual contentment.

*
CHAPTER FIRST. 55

“Non deliberativeness” has been already defined. (Aph.
XLIV). “ Purity” (vaisdradya) means freedom from dirt. The
non-argumentative condition 18 superior to the argumentative.
To that the deliberative which has a subtile object in view, (is su-
perior). Again, the non-deliberative, which has no object in view, is
superior to the preceding. When by rigorous practice “ purity,”
as the condition of freedom from dirt, is attained “ intellectual
contentment” results, ४. ¢., the thinking principle, being free
from pain and longing, becomes fit to flow in an even course.
This is the purity of the thinking principle, abidence in which
is steadfastness (Aph. XXXII).

(The four conditions are graded in due order, and the last is
declared to be the best of them, because in the highest purity of
that condition there is perfect intellectual contentment, in which
one can behold all knowledge like one seated in the palace of

He next explains what happens when this condition is attained.

XLVIII.

In that condition knowledge becomes truth-support-
ing.

That “ knowledge” (prajnd) which supports the “ truth” (rita)
or reality, and never permits it to be covered by misconception
(A. VIII) is “truth-supporting”’ (rétambhara), and 70 the
condition (aforesaid) this is acquired. With the light of that
knowledge the Yogi perceives everything in its true character,
and acquires the highest Yoga.

[In the next aphorism it will be shown that this perfect know-
ledge is the same with the transcendental power of knowing things,
independently of the ordinary means of ascertaining truth. ]

Its distinction from other forms of knowledge is now to be
explained.

56 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

XLIX.

The knowledge which results from testimony and
inference is general, (and differs from this) which has
a specific object (in view).

“Testimony” (७१४८४) is knowledge founded on sacred texts.
“Inference” (anumdna) has been already defined (Aph. VII).
The knowledge which results from these two has generals for its
object, since neither words nor characteristic signs are able, like
the organs of sense, to convey -a knowledge of particularities.
While this knowledge (the one under notice), resulting from the
purity (fulness) of the non-deliberative condition, is distinct from
them, inasmuch as it has a speciality for its object. When one
is in the condition of this knowledge, the truth of all subtile,
intercepted, and remote objects becomes manifest in a clear form.
The advice is, that for this reason it is proper that every exertion
should be made by Yog‘s for the attainment of this knowledge.

[The transcendental powers referred to above are here de-
scribed to be the power of observing things which are so subtile,
or so intercepted, or so remote that they cannot be observed by
the ordinary appliances of perception. ]

He now describes the fruit of this knowledge.

L.
The residuum of this is opposed to all other residua.

“The residuum” (satskdra Aph. XVIII) which is produced by
that knowledge, obstructs all other residua, whether arising
during worldly condition or during meditation, 7. ¢., it renders
them incapable of achieving their respective works. Since the
residua produced by knowledge being absolute, are more power-
ful, they are able to preclude all residua resulting from non-
absolute knowledge. The purport is that for this reason that
absolute knowledge should be exercised.

CHAPTER FIRST. 57

[The purport of this and of the next aphorism has already been
explained in the comments on aphorisms XVII and XVIII.]

Having thus described conscious meditation, he now explains
the un-conscious form of meditation, (Aph. XVIII).

LI.

On the removal of this also, everything being
removed, there is meditation without a seed.

^ Of this,” 2. ९., of conscious meditation. ‘ Removal” (nzro-
dha) is dissolution. On its dissolution all functions of thought
melting into their causes, and the mere residua which arise in this
state being also rejected by the conviction “this is not, this is
not,” meditation without a seed becomes manifest. On this being
accomplished the soul (puruska) becomes pure, and abides solely
in its own nature.

[The P. Bhdshya explains the aphorism thus: “That medi-
tation is not only antagonistic to the impressions of the Samé-
. dhi state, but also to the residua left by those impressions.
But how do the residua of the suppressed (nirodha) state
remove the residua of the meditative state? By the influence
of the duration of the suppressed state the existence alone of the
impressions produced by the suppressed thinking principle is
perceptible. As the thinking principle then merges into its
own natural form along with all the impressions of the waking,
the meditative, the suppressed and the isolated states, their residua
can no longer be antagonistic to the natural state of the thinking
principle, nor the causes of its (separate) existence. And
since the thinking principle, divested of its functions, along
with the residua of the isolated state, is suppressed, and in that
suppression the soul resides in its own form, it is called pure and
liberated.’ |

Now in this (chapter) have been described Yoga, the subject of
the work (A.1I), its definition by the words the cessation of the
thinking principle (A. II), exercise (XIII), dispassion (XY), the

This is the end of the first quarter or Yoga chapter of the

CHAPTER SECOND. 59

CHAPTER SECOND.

May the three-eyed Lord of the universe, by whom has been
disclosed the several means of obtaining the occult powers of the
difficultly-achievable Yoga, be favourable to the attainment of
the desired object !

Having in the first chapter explained the Yoga for those
whose thoughts are collected, together with the means thereof,
the author now, anticipating the question what should be the
practice of the means for the achievement of the Yoga for those
whose thoughts are in a waking (worldly) state, describes the
Kriyda-yoga (practical Yoga), with a view to establish the mode
of accomplishing it.

(This chapter is designed for persons who have not obtained
control over their passions, but who are nevertheless desirous
of practising those works which are calculated to train them for
the performance of the highest branches of the Yoga, and
to enable them to acquire supernatural powers (riddisés). Inas-
much as this training can be attained only through active exercise
of certain duties, and those duties form the topics of this chapter,
the chapter is called Kriy4-yoga or “ Practical Yoga.’’]

I.
Asceticism, muttering, and resignation to God con-
stitute the Practical Yoga.

८ Asceticism” (¢anas) is the observance of the fasts called
Krichchhra, Ch&ndréyana and the like enjoined in another
S astra (Dharma-gdstra). ^^ Muttering” (sidhydya) is the inaudible
repetition of particular mantras preceded by the Pranava, (२, ¢.,
thesyllableOm). ^ Resignation to God” (J’svara-pranidhana) is
the dedication to the Supremely Venerable all one’s works, without

60 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

any concern for their fruits. These, it is said, are the Practical
Yoga.

[This aphorism defines what Practical Yoga is. It includes
the three acts of Asceticism, Muttering, and: Resignation to God.
The first includes all those acts of fasting and the like which
the Smriti ordains for the mortification of the flesh. In this sense
tapas would be best rendered by religious austerity or self-denial,
but the examples given are included under the head of penance.
The Yogis do not exclude any of them, nor, except in the form of
seats &c., add any new form of penance. The {2८4८6414 named
in the commentary is by some believed to be the same with the
Pr&jfpatya, and by others with the Santapana. The first is effected
by eating once a day for three days in the morning, then once in the
night for three days, then subsisting for three days on food given,
unasked, as alms, and lastly fasting for three days. The fast is
absolute, and not evena mouthful of water is allowed to be drunk.
The second is effected by living for six days on the five products
of the cow and water in which kwga grass has been steeped, and
absolutely fasting on the 7th day. The Chéndrdyana has several
varieties, but all of them are regulated by the moon’s age, the food
being daily reduced by one mouthful from the first day, till on the
newmoon no food is taken, and then on the next day beginning with
one mouthful the full allowance is got on the day of the fullmoon.
These penances are ordained for particular heinous sins. In citing
their names it is not the object of the commentator to enjoin that
these particular penances shonld be regularly practised, but
simply to cite'examples. The Hathadipiké enjoins some forms
of asceticism suited to the Raéja-yoga. The object is, there should
be constant mortifying of the flesh so as to subdue its longings.

Muttering, like the last, is a part of the Smriti ritual, largely
dwelt upon in the Tantras. Every householder has a particular
mantra which he is required to repeat for a certain number of
times every day, the number varying from twelve to many
thousands according to choice. The muttering is so done as not
to be audible to a bystander, but in a manner so that cach repe-

CHAPTER SECOND. 61

tition may be clear and distinct, and fit to be counted by the
mutterer. The P. Bhdshya and the P. Rakasya add that
sadhydya implies either the muttering of a mantra, or the study
of that s’4stra which relates to emancipation. Pranavadi-pavitra-
nam japo mokshas'astradhyayanam va.

Resignation to God (pranzdhdna) bas been already explained
on p. 28.

These are essentially necessary as preliminary practices, but
they do not constitute the Yoga itself.]

(To the question) of what use are these, he replies:

II.

It is for the purpose of the contemplation of Sama-
dhi and for weakening afflictions.

८८ Afflictions” (1८८58) will be presently described (II, 111.) To
८८ weaken them” is to make them unfit for their respective works.
८८ Samfdhi’’ (meditation) has been already explained (1, xx.) Its
“ contemplation” (०५४८१४८) 15 repeated cogitation of it in thought.
That Yoga which has these contemplation and weakening for its
purpose (arthka), object, is so called (kriyd-yoga). What is said
is this : These mortifications, &c. when practised, weakening the
afflictions of the ignorance residing in the thought, become acces-
sories toSamfdhi. Therefore the advice is that the Yogi should
first turn his attention to this Practical Yoga.

[The purport of this aphorism has been already anticipated
-in the remarks on the last preceding Aphorism. ]

It has been said (above that the Practical Yoga is wanted)
for the purpose of weakening the afflictions, and what those
_afflictions are he now describes.

III.

Ignorance, egoism, desire, aversion, and ardent
attachment to life are the five afflictions.

62 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

“ Afflictions” (1८८54) are the five, ignorance, &c., which will
be (presently) described. These, being of an obstructive cha-
racter, 2. ¢., producing distress, become the object of the term
affliction. These, abiding in the thinking principle, strengthen
the modifications of the (three) qualities whieh constitute mun-
dane existence.

(Here the names of the afflictions are given, but their defini-
tions are reserved for subsequent discussions. The reason why
they are called “ afflictions,” is explained to be that they tend
to promote those modifications of the thinking principle which
the three qualities of goodness, foulness, and darkness tend to
for worldly purposes. In other words, those functions which
attach the mind to the world are afflictions, because they stand
in the way of emancipation. |

Although all these are equally afflicting, nevertheless
ignorance, being the source (of all of them), is the chief, and to
establish this he says:

IV.

Ignorance is the field of those which follow,
whether they be dormant, weak, intercepted or
simple.

“Ignorance” (avidyd) is delusion ; it is in fact the assumption
of that being the soul which is not soul. Itis the “ field” (kshetra),
or ground of production, of those which follow, ४. e., egoism
and the rest, and each of them may be in one of the four condi-
tions of dormancy, &c. Wherever the reverse-idea-producing
ignorance becomes weak, there egoism and the other afflictions
are not seen to arise, for it is seen that where the mistaken
notion exists there they arise, it follows, therefore, that ignorance
is their source.

The “dormant, weak, intercepted or simple.” Of these
afflictions those which, existing in the thinking principle, do
not, owing to the absence of an exciting cause, produce their

CHAPTER SECOND. 63

effect, are called “dormant” (prasupta), asleep. Thus in child-
hood. Though residing in a child in the form of instincts those
afflictions do not, from want of co-operation of an exciting cause,
flare up.

Those afflictions are said to be “ weak” (¢anz) which, be-
coming overpowered in their effort to perform their respective
functions by their mutually contradictory inclinations, reside in
the thinking principle in the form of instincts, but are not able
to carry on their work without the aid of numerous auxiliaries.
This is the case in the practising Yogi (who being engaged in
one particular contemplation does not allow the afflictions to
disturb his thoughts. They are in him, but in a condition of
weakness produced by their non-indulgence).

Those afflictions are said to be “intercepted” (vichchhinna)
which remain with their powers overcome by a particularly
potent passion, as desire when the prevailing passion is aversion,
or aversion when the prevailing passion is desire: being mu-
tually opposed to each other, they cannot dominate at the same
time, (one must for the time intercept the other).

Aflflictions are said to be “ simple” (udara) when, having their
auxiliaries beside them, they carry on their respective functions.
This is the case of the waking condition of those who follow not
the ways of the Yoga.

Each of these four (afflictions) has ignorance for its root, and
is also attended by it, for nowhere are the afflictions found
existing by themselves as opposed to, or independent of, the
attendant. When that ignorance, a mere falsehood, is removed
by thorough knowledge, these afflictions, like roasted seeds, never
sproutagain. It follows that these are both rooted in, and attended
by, ignorance; hence they are all implied by ignorance. The
conclusion is that as all these afflictions are calculated to produce
distractions of the thinking principle, it is the foremost duty of
the Yogi to exert for their removal.

[In A. 111 the afflictions have been described to be five in
number. In this the author shows that four of them owe their

04 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

origin, and are subject, to ignorance. He also shows that they are
always present, though not always active. The causes of their
want of activity are described to be dormancy, weakness and
interception |

He now defines ignorance.

Vv;

Ignorance is the assumption of that which is non-
eternal, impure, painful and non-soul, to be eternal,

pure, joyous and soul.

The assumption of a thing being what it is not, is ^ igno-
rauce” (avidya). That this is its general definition follows from
its distinctions as pointed out (in the aphorism). Thus the
assumption of eternity in the non-eternal water jar and the
like is ignorance. In the same way, the assumption of purity
in impure objects, like the body and so forth, that of joy in
pain, and that of the soul in the body (which is not soul, are
results of ignorance). By these is explained the mistake of con-
founding vice with virtue and the useless with the useful.

[The P. Bhashya argues that although the word avidya is
formed of the privative particle a with vidya “ knowledge,” it
does not mean simple absence of knowledge, but a conception
distinct and the opposite of it, and illustrates it by the examples
of amitra and agoshpada, the former of which, though formed of
८ (absence) and mitra “a friend,” does not mean the absence of a
friend, but an enemy, and the latter, formed of @ and goshpada
“the footprint of a cow,” does not mean the absence of the
footprint of a cow, but a country. Tasyds chamitragoshpada-

With a view to explain egoism, he says :

CHAPTER SECOND. 65

VI.

Egoism is the identifying of the power that sees
with the power of seeing.

“The power that sees” (drik-sakt:,) is the soul (Purusha).
“‘The power of seeing” (darsana-sakti) is the internal organ
produced by the quality of goodness unaffected by the qualities
of foulness and darkness. What is said is, that the assumption
of the two extremely different things,—the one being the
enjoyer and the other the enjoyed—the active and the inert,—
being the same is egoism (asmita). Thus, when nature (prakritz),
though really devoid of the power of enjoying and of intelli-
gence, fancies ‘I am the enjoyer,” “I am the intelligent,” the
blunder is the affliction called egoism.

[The internal organ is a modification of the quality of goodness,
which marks the distinction between itself and the things around
it. In this state it is egotism; but when that internal organ
ceases to perform this function, and only a sense of mere
existence is felt in the thinking principle without any distinction
of the self and the things around it is egoism. This definition
was anticipated by the commentator in his remarks on A. इण
chapter I, (p. 19) and the author gives it here.]

He defines desire.

VII.

Desire is dwelling on pleasure.

^ Dwelling on pleasure” (suthdnusayi) is lying on pleasure.
The longing or thirst for pleasure on the part of him who had
experienced it before, and is impelled by its remembrance, is the
affliction called desire (7dga).

[The root $£ is “to sleep” or “ lie down,” and literally the
translation of anus‘ayi should be the sleeper, or that which lies on
something, but idiomatically I prefer dwelling, as it conveys more
clearly the idea intended by the author. Obviously he means the

9

66 APHORISMS OF PATANJALTI.

dwelling on, or keeping alive in the mind, the idea of some
object or other. Anusaya means “ to follow” or “to pursue,”
and that would afford avery appropriate rendering of the term
here, but in the next aphorism it has been used with reference to
pain, and as no one pursues pain knowing it to be pain, that
rendering cannot be adopted. It is true the word also means
“repentance,” and it may be assumed that the author has used
the word in two different senses in the two aphorisms, but such
an assumption would be unjustifiable in dealing with definitions.
The author, in his aphorisms, has nowhere evinced any leaning
for rhetoric or verbal ornament, and it is very unlikely that he
should use the same word in two consecutive aphorisms in two
contradictory senses, when his object is to make things clear, and
not to confound. |
He next defines aversion.

VITl.

Aversion is dwelling on pain.
“ Pain” (duhkha) has been already defined, (€. I, xxx1). That

which one, having experienced it, and remembering it, is averse
to its means as undesirable, is the affliction called ^ aversion’’
(dvesha).

[Three of my MSS. has pratikiula-lakshnam for ukta-laksh-
nam. If that reading be adopted, the meaning would be “ Pain
is of an opposite nature,” ४. ८. in the case of pleasure there is a
longing or thirst to get the object, while in that of pain, the
feeling is the reverse, or avoiding to get it.]

He now defines tenacity of life.

IX.

Tenacity of life is an attachment to the body
which relates to the residua of one’s former life, even
on the part of the wise.

CHAPTER SECOND. 67

The fear arising from the memory of pain from death endured
in a former life prompts the constant wish, “May I not be
separated from the body and its objects,” and the attachment
to the body resulting therefrom, an attachment which exists
without an inducing cause, in all beings from Brahma to an
earthworm, is the affliction called ^" Tenacity of life.” (4८4४
vesha.) Thus, it is afflicting in the waking or mundane state.
These afflictions should at the outset be destroyed by the Yogi
by the exercise of concentration of the mind to one point.

[The only doubtful word in the aphorism is the first. It 15
formed of the three words, sva “one’s own,” rasa literally
“ wish,” and rai, “ that which carries :’—“ that which carries or
keeps in current one’s wish.” The commentators have, however,
not rendered it so. Without giving a synonym of rasa, the
P. Bhashya uses the word vdsand in its place (marana-
duhkhanubhavadiyam vasaneti), and that word is the equivalent of
saiiskara, which I have rendered into residua. In this way the
term svarasavaht means ‘that which carries the residua of one’s
former life.’ It proceeds from the memory of former experi-
ence, and since no one has in this life experienced the pain of
death, it must follow that the fear of death must be the result
of the unconscious memory of the experience of a former state
of life—and this fear is the cause of attachment to life. |

Since it is not practicable to remove these afflictions without
first knowing what they are, the author, having described their
names (II, 111) fields, (I, 1v) divisions, (II, 1v) and characteristics,
(II, v to 1x,) now explains the division of the means of destroying
them, according as they are gross or subtile.

X.
These, the subtile ones, should be avoided by an
adverse course,

Those are “subtile” (sikskhma) afflictions which exist in the
form of residua, but have not assumed a modification in the

68 APIIORISMS OF PATANJALT.

form of active work. They are to be avoided (heya), eluded, by
an adverse course (pratiprasava) or reflex modification. When
the thinking principle, with its residua, has accomplished its
course and entered into egoism, which is its source, how can these,
(afflictions,) being rootless, exist ?

(The five afflictions aforesaid are described under two heads,
subtile and gross. They are subtile when they exist in the
form of residua, ४, e., they exist potentially, but are latent.
They become gross when they break out into active operation.
Now, the latent ones are to be overcome by an adverse course.
The natural course is to allow them to manifest themselves
through the stimuli of external objects; but if the thinking
principle be directed inwards towards egoism, the course of
action is adverse to the natural tendency of the residua; and, in
the absence of stimuli, they cannot manifest themselves. They
cannot sprout, and are, therefore, compared in the P. Bhashya
to roasted seeds. |

He next describes the means for the destruction of the gross
(afflictions).

XI.
Their functions should be avoided by meditation.

The functions of these afflictions in active operation, which
manifest themselves in the form of pleasure, pain, and delusion,
should be “ avoided,” destroyed, by meditation characterised by the
concentration of the thinking principle ona single point. These,
being gross, are suppressed by the mere exercise for the purifica-
tion of the thinking principle, even as dense thick dirt on cloth
and the like is removed by mere washing, while that which is
subtile in it requires heating and other (arduous) means.

[The means of suppressing the gross afflictions, or those
afflictions which are in active operation, is meditation, or con-
fining the thinking principle to one action, and focussing it
there to the exclusion of all other objects. The difference lies in
this—that in the case of latent afflictions the thinking principle

CHAPTER SECOND. 69

is directed inward, and no opportunity is given to the latent ones
to become active ; and in the case of gross ones or those which
are in active action, the thinking principle is confined to one
object, and thereby all others are excluded. In the one case a
desire is repressed by turning away from it, and keeping the
thinking principle occupied with another, and in the other no
opportunity is given for external stimuli to excite the latent
wishes.

The illustration given shows that the subtile ones are more
difficult to repress than the gross ones. |

Having thus defined the true character of the afflictions he,
with a view to explain the residua of works, says:

XII.
The residua of works have affliction for their root,
and are felt (either) in this manifest birth, (or) in the
unmanifest one.

By the term “ residua of works” (karmds‘aya) the nature of the
residua is explained, for all works are of the form of residua. By
(the phrase) “ Have affliction for their root’ (kles’amiu/ah) their
cause is indicated, for of good or evil works the afflictions are the
cause. By (the phrase) “ felt in this manifest birth, or in the un-
manifest one,” the fruition is described. What is felt in the present
existence is called “felt in this manifest birth” (drishtajanma-
vedaniyah) ; that which is to be felt in another existence is
called “ felt in an unmanifest one,” (adrishtajanma-vedaniyah).
Thus, some virtuous actions, such as the worship of the gods and
the like performed with excessive ardour, produce fruits even in this
life in the form of kind, age, or experience. Thus, to Nandis’vara,
through the influence of his worshipping the lord Mahesvara,
change of kind was secured even in this life. Similarly to
Vigvamitra and others kind and age accrued through the
force of penance. In the case of some kind alone is changed.
Thus inthe case of Nahusa and others performing vicious acts
with excessive ardour kind alone was changed. So ८1४2511 was

70 ड APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

metamorphosed into a creeper in the garden of Kartikeya. Thus
is the rule to be explained distributively or collectively.

[The leading word in this aphorism is sarmasaya. Formed
of karma “ works” and asaya “ virtue and vice,” it implies the
results which follow from the performances of works. The word
agaya has been accepted in aphorism 24, chapter I, to be the
equivalent of vdsand and saiiskdra, and for the sake of concord-
ance, and in accordance with the commentators, I render it here
in that sense, inasmuch as the results do not manifest imme-
diately, but remain latent to even a second or subsequent life in
the form of residua.

The works are described to have afflictions for their root,
because all works proceed from ignorance, egoism, desire,
aversion, and tenacity for life, technically called the five afhic-
tions, (II, 111). No work can be performed unless impelled by
one or other of these five, and so they are the roots of the residua
that are left behind. The fruits of these residua are borne
either collectively or singly, and at different times, either in this
life or in a subsequent one, and the commentator cites instances
to prove this. The story of Nandisvara becoming a demigod
occurs in the Vrihannandikesvara Purana. The Ramayana and
some of the Puranas give the story of Vis’vamitra, a Kshatriya
by birth, becoming a Brahmana. The Mahabhérata relates the
story of Nahusa being changed into a snake by a curse. The
story of Urvasi’s becoming, like another Daphne, a creeper, occurs
in the drama of Vikramorvasi. ]

Now he describes the varieties and distinctions of the residua
of works with their fruits.

XITI.
The root existing, the deserts are kind, age, and
experience.

The ^ root” (mila) is the afflictions aforesaid. As long as the
afflictions are not removed, the deserts (४७८), fruition of works,

CHAPTER SECOND. 71

good and evil, follow in the form of kind, age, and experience.
“Kind” (८६) means being a man or some other being. “ Age”
(dyus) is always remaining in the same body. ^ Experience”’
(640ga) means sense objects, the senses, and consciousness of
pleasure and pain, according as it is accepted in the passive,
instrumental, or abstract sense.

The purport of this is this: That as the residua of works
reposited in the thinking principle from time without a begin-
ning, attain maturity, so they, according to their measure, lead
to fruition in the form of kind, age, and experience. The
afflictions existing with their roots uncut, the residua of works
become the originators of deserts. Even as unhusked S’éli
paddy, like unroasted seeds, are able to germinate, but husked
grains, like roasted seeds, cannot, so the residua of works, un-
parted from the afflictions, become the germinators of deserts ;
though such is not the case when the afflictions are removed, or
the residua are reduced to the condition of roasted secds.

(The first difficult word in the aphorism is 4८2. Its meaning
is obvious enough, but I call it difficult because I can find
no satisfactory equivalent for it in the English language. It is
formed of the root san ‘to be born,’ and means that which is
born; but in philosophy it 1s used to imply species in a very
comprehensive sense. It means caste, 2. e., distinction of family ;
or species, that is one distinct from another, as several species
in @ genus or order ; or broader distinctions than what is implied
by species; as also the broadest distinctions which naturalists
indicate by the term kingdom. The examples given show that
the word jatz equally applies to the change of caste, as in a
Kshatriya becoming a Brahman; or to that of species} as in a
man becoming a demigod ; or to that of a kingdom asin a woman
becoming a creeper: I know of no such comprehensive term in
the English language. Dr. Ballantyne uses ran‘, but I doubt if
the change of a woman into a creeper or a stone, the change could
be idiomatically described as one of *‘ rank.” Colebrooke uses

72 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

birth,” but the change may take place without a regular birth.
For the sake of English idiom the best course would be to use
different equivalents under different circumstances, but that would
upset the line of argument of the author. Genesis appears to bear
close approximation to द, and kind is its Anglo-Saxon counter-
part. In using “kind” as the equivalent, I use what appears less
liable to objection than others, but it is by no means a good one.

The second word dyus has been so explained by the commenta-
tor as to imply longevity, but the word means simply “ age”
or “duration of life,” which may be long or short according
to circumstances :—a meritorious work leading to prolongation
of existence in a particular body, whereas a vicious one tending
to shorten the span of life.

The third word is ९400, which Dr. Ballantyne renders into
“enjoyment ;” but inasmuch as here it means the endurance of
pain as well as the delectation of pleasure, I prefer न experience,”
which covers both.

The purport of the aphorism is that the fruition of works
leads according to circumstances to change of body into a higher
or lower grade, to the prolongation or reduction in the span of
life, and to the experience of pleasure or pain.

The P. Bhashya thus explains the time of fruition: “The
deserts are of three sorts, kind, age and experience. In regard
to them the questions are discussed, 1st, Is one work the cause of
one birth, or is it the cause of many births? 2nd, Are many
works the causes of many births or of one birth ?

One work is not the cause of one birth. Why so? Because
there would be no regularity in the fruition of the remainder of
innumerable works accumulated from time without a beginning
along with a recent work. The objection would also be there
would be no inducement for people (to perform many works).
Therefore it is wrong.

Nor is one work the cause of many births. Why? Because if
out of many works each work was to be the cause of many births,

CHAPTER SECOND. 73

there would be want of time for the fruition of all the remainmg
deserts. Therefore it, too,is wrong. Nor can many works be the
cause of many births. Why? Because it is not possible for
many births to happen simultaneously, and consequently it must
be said to happen successively, and then the objection before urged
(about want of time) would apply. It follows then that the diverse
stock of residua of virtuous and vicious actions performed from
birth to death remains in a dominant or a dominated form, and
on a death taking place it becomes the cause of a birth, being
itzelf liable to destruction on another stock becoming dominant.”]

The above described kind, &c. being the fruits of works, the
author, in order to show that they produce fruition according to
the works which are their cause, says:

XIV.

_ They have joy or suffering for their fruit, accord-
ing a8 their cause is virtue or vice.

“Joy” (4/ada) is pleasure, and “suffering” (paritdpa) is
pain. Those which have joy and suffering for their fruits are
80 called, (४, ¢., by the term 4dda-paritdpa-phaldah).

“Virtue” (pxnya) is fortunate action, and the reverse of it is
“vice” (apunya). Those which have virtue or vice for their
cause are 80 Called (by the compound term punydpunya-hetutva).

What is said is this :—those works which proceed from virtuous
actions yield joyful fruition in kind, age, and experience. Those
which resuit from vice have painful fruitions.

(The meaning is obvious, and calls for no remark. |

To all ordinary beings the fruition is thus of two kinds; but
to the Yogi all are painful ; to show this, he says:

XV.

To the discriminating all are verily painful, be-

cause of the adversity of the actions of (the three)
10

74 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

qualitics, and of the pains of sequence, anxiety and
residua. |

The meaning is, that to the “ discriminating” (४2४९४) who has
had experience of the afflictions, &c., all manifest sense- objects are
painful, like tasteful food infused with poison, and therefore should
be known as adverse to him, since the thoroughly experienced
Yogi feels oppressed by even the slightest pain. Even as the
eyeball feels the acutest pain from the mere touch of a fibre
of wool which the other organs do not, so the discriminating Yogi
is distressed by even very slight pain.

To explain why it should be so, he says, “ because of the
pains of sequence, anxiety and residua.” Inasmuch as the longing
for objects of enjoyment increases in the same ratio in which they
are enjoyed, and the pain proceeding from their non-attainment
is unavoidable, therefore pain always follows pleasure, and there
is nothing but pain. This is the pain of sequence (parindma-
duhkhatva).

Again, since even in the enjoyment of pleasing objects there
is always a feeling of aversion against that which is antagonistic
to them, anxiety cannot be eluded even while in the enjoyment of
pleasures. This is the “ pain of anxiety,” (¢dpaduhkhata).

‘‘ Pain of residua” (sanskaraduhkkha). The sensation of plea-
sure, or of pain, arises in the presence of a desirable or an
undesirable. object, and a corresponding residuum is left on
the field (of the thinking principle), and since from such a
residuum a corresponding sensation is produced, and since from a
great number of such residua the mundane condition is never
cut short, therefore all residua are painful.

“From adversity of the action of the qualities” (gunavyitti-
virodhdt). The effects of the three qualities of goodness,
foulness and darkness, manifesting in the forms of pleasure,
pain, and delusion, being mutually overpowering or overpowered,
are hostile to each other. They are everywhere connected with
pain, hence they are painful.

CHAPTER SECOND. 75

What is said is this :—To the discriminating who ts anxious
to obviate pain to the utmost and absolutely, all the four causes
above described, appear in the form of pain, and hence all
deserts are said to be of the form of pain.

[The object of this aphorism is to establish that everything
connected with worldly life is painful, and Yogis should, there-
fore, shun them all. To prove this, itis first shown that all
joyous actions are followed by pain. (The word parindma in the
text here is used for sequence or result, and not modification as
in most other places.) There must be a change after the enjoy-
ment of pleasure, and as there is an increase of desire from
enjoyment there must be frequent disappointments, and they
inflict pain. Even in the act of enjoyment there is always a
dread of something that may disturb it, and so it is not unal-
loyed. Then all actions and all impressions leave behind
residua in the field of the thinking principle, and they revive
sensations of pleasure and pain. And lastly, the three qualities
are adverse to each other, and therefore they create disturbances
- and cause pain. The conclusion is a state of pessimism, from
which the only relief is to be had by totally cutting oneself off
from all worldly affairs. This pessimism forms the basis of all the
leading systems of Indian philosophy, and is not unknown in
Europe. According to Hartmann, “ if we balance our pleasures and
pains, the latter greatly exceed the former.” Schopenhauer goes
further, and assigns a negative nature to pleasure, which is very
much the same as the doctrine of Leibnitz who assigns a
privative character to pain. He holds that “all pleasure causes
an exhaustion of the nervous processes, and are in themselves
indirect, resulting from the cessation or intermission of pain,
and seldom emerges into consciousness, whereas pain ¢o ipso
generates consciousness.” He asks, “ what, for instance, are
all the pleasures of health, of youth, of freedom, of sufficient
means? Are they anything but the absence of sickness, of old
age, of slavery, of poverty? and is not work itself an evil?
How great misery does it entail upon. the toiling magses of

76 APIIORISMS OF PATANYJALI.

our fellow countrymen? Does any one work of his own free
will?” He adds, “no amount of pleasure can compensate for
any degree. of pain.” Again, “ human life oscillates between
pain and ennui, which states are indeed the ultimate elements
of life.” Hartmann holds pleasure and pain to be “ qualitatively
similar, and only different in quantity.” (Philosophie des Unbe-
wussten). Socrates aptly describes pleasure and pain to be
“fastened together from one crown.” (Plato, Phedo.) Poets
generally revel in the pleasures of this world, but Byron, one of
the greatest among them, says—

“ Count o’er the joys thine hours have seen,
Count o’er thy days from anguish free ;
And know, whatever thou hast been,

*Tis something better—not to be.”

The question then arises whence is the deliverance to come ?
and an able writer thus summarises the answer of the pessimists.
In knowing that the world is radically and necessarily bad.
Such knowledge leaves no ground for that old affirmation of the
Will to live. It leads to a negation of Will, to a renunciation of
desire, which, completed by means of asceticism and mortification,
must attain that perfect freedom of the Will, that true nirvana,
in which there is no more Will, and therefore no longer an ideal
presentation or a real world.” (Westminster Review, XLIX,
128.) This is almost the very language of Kapila].

Since pain, residua, works, and the fund of deserts, as aforesaid,
are produced by Ignorance, and since Ignorance is of the form
of false knowledge, and should be destroyed by perfect know-
ledge, and since perfect knowledge is that which decides what
should be rejected and the cause thereof, and what should be
approved and its cause, he says this by way of explanation:

XVI.

Avoidable is the pain not yet come.

~ ॐ

CHAPTER SECUND. 77

Inasmuch as the past 1s gone (and cannot be recalled), and
that which is being experienced cannot be avoided, that worldly
pain which has not yet come (but may come) is what should be
avoided. This is what is said here.

(The word heya is derived from the root 4d ‘ to quit,’ and
means both that which should be shunned and that which
can be avoided. The English equivalent has not this double
sense, but it affords the nearest approach to the Sanskrit term.
The injunction is, since the past and the present are beyond
control, exertion should be made to preclude the possibility
of future pain. Dr. Ballantyne is quite right in rendering
the aphorism into “what is to be shunned is pain not yet
come,” but when eya is used as an adjective, this phrase “ that
which is to be shunned,” is too lumbering to be used with
convenience. Avoidance-worthy conveys the exact meaning, and
is more easy of manipulation, but it too is lumbering. A single
term is wanted, and, not knowing any English word of the
kind, I use what appears to me to approach the nearest to the
-original, without being its exact equivalent. ]

He now describes the cause of the avoidable.

XVII.

The conjunction of the spectator and the spectacle
is the cause of the avoidable.

The “spectator” (drishta) is the soul of the form of intelli-
gence. The “spectacle” (drzsya) is the principle of under-
standing (intellect). The conjunction,” safiyoga, 3. e., coming into
the relation of the enjoyer and that which is to be enjoyed, of
these two, without due discrimination, is the “cause,” (Aetz)
producing agent, of the “avoidable,” (Aeya) which is pain result-
ing from the modifications of the qualities, and that is the world.
The meaning is that on the cessation of that conjunction
worldliness subsides.

(In this aphorism “ the avoidable” is used to imply the affairs
of the world. Those affairs result from the conjunction or

78 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

interaction of the soul and the intellect, and inasmuch 98 world-
liness is invariably associated with pain, and that pain cannot be
suppressed as long as that worldliness lasts, and for the sake of
emancipation worldliness should be avoided, that which is to be
avoided is here called the avoidable, or the avoidance-worthy.
The word satyoga means conjunction, but here a mere reflection of
the soul is what 18 meant. The reflection results from propin-
quity. There is never an actual contact. |

Having described the conjunction of the spectator and the
spectacle, he now explains the nature, the function, and the
motive of the spectacle.

XVIII.

The spectacle is of the nature of illumination, action,
and rule; it is of the form of the elements and the
organs ; it 18 the purpose of for experience and emanci-
pation.

*‘Tllumination” (prakdga) is the nature of the quality of
goodness. «^ Action” (kriyd) inthe form of exertion, is that of
foulness. ^" Rule” (s¢4zéz), in the form of regulation, is that of
darkness. That which has illumination, action and the rest for its
essential nature is so called, (2, ¢., by the term prakdsa-harya-
sthiti-gilam). By this the nature of the spectacle is defined.

«५ [४ is of the form of the elements and the organs” (dhuten-
driyalmakam). The “elements” (९6४८5) are, according as they
are gross or subtile, the earth, &c. and the rudiments of odour, &९.
The “organs’’ (¢ndriya) are threefold, according as they are the
organs of sense, the organs of action, and the internal organ. That
of which these two (the elements and the organs), in the forms
of the preceptor and the precept, are the natural modifications,
not different from its own form, is called “of the form of the
elements and the organs.” By this its action is also described.

“Experience” (d40ga) has been already defined, (II, xu11).
^ Emancipation” (apavarga) is the cessation of worldliness result-

CHAPTER SECOND. ` 79

ing from discriminative knowledge. That which has these two,
(6hoga and apavarga) for its “ object” (artka) or requirement, 18
the spectacle. This is the meaning.

{There would be no spectacle if there was not in it a power of
manifestation, 2. ९.) of illumination, or light. Without some
action, too, it could not be manifest ; and to be manifest it must
have some rule or order. Hence the three are described to be the
three essentials of its exietence, or in other words its nature.
The esoteric interpretation of this is that the spectacle is essen-
tially the three qualities of goodness, foulness and darkness,
which must be in action to produce spectacle. It is of the
form of the elements and the organs. The organs could not alone
produce spectacles, nor would the elements produce spectacles if
there were no organs to perceive them and communicate them to
the intellect. The independent existence of the two, unconnected
with each other, would also fail to produce a spectacle. They must
be brought together to do so, and therefore it is that the spectacle
is described to be of the nature of illumination, and of the form
of the elements and the organs. The purport of this round-
about expression is that the intellect is the spectacle when it is
acted upon by the elements and the organs, or the elements and the
organs are modified in the form of the intellect. The word used
in the text is démd, and it is explained to be a modification not
different from its natural form or identity (svarupabhinnah pari-
namah. What this natural form is is not apparent. Obviously
the natural form of the intellect, or Buddhi, would be the mean-
ing, but from what follows, Prakriti would seem to be what
is meant. I shall notice this lower down, (A. xIx, xxi).

The motive or object of the spectacle is twofold,—it ministers
to our enjoyment, and it may be made to help us in our endea-
vours to attain emancipation from the bondage of the earth.

The word ०८420 means fixity or abidance, but the Sdfkhya-
tattva-kaumud? explains it to mean rule, regulation, or order.
Had there been no order or rule, illumination and action would be
continuous, and there would be no cessation or break. It is the

80 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

intervention of darkness that causes the break or order of the
manifestation of light and action; this is implied by ०4८८४. It
implies the quality of darkness. |

To describe the phases of this spectacle in its various conditions,
in the forms of modifications which should be known as fit to be
avoided, he says:

XIX.

The specific, the unspecific, the solely mergent, and
the immergent are the divisions of the qualities.

‘¢ The divisions of the qualities,” 2. e., their specific conditions,
should be known to be four—this is enjoined. Thereof the
specific” (vigesha) are the grosselements and the organs. The
८८ unspecific” (avtsesha) are the subtile elements and the internal
organ. The “solely mergent” (ifgamdtra) is intellect. The
‘immergent” (aliflga) is the unmanifest or undiscrete, ४, ¢.,
Prakriti. This is what is said. Since the relation everywhere of
this undiscrete of the form of the three qualities is necessary to
be known at the time of commencing knowledge, the four
divisions are defined.

[The object of this aphorism is to explain that the spectacle
assumes different forms under different circumstances. It is
^ specific” or well-defined when it refers to the elements and the
organs. It .is “unspecific” or undefined when related to the
subtile elements and the internal organ or the mind. It is “solely
mergent” or mere thought when it refers to the intellect or the
thinking principle. And it is “ immergent” or unmanifest or
undiscrete when referring to Prakriti. Here Prakriti is included
as one of the forms or phases of the spectacle, though in the
commentary on the seventeenth aphorism the spectacle has been
defined to be the intellect or the principle of understanding
(buddhitattva). This inconsistency is explained away by saying
that the intellect is but a modification of Prakriti, and, inas-
much as its primary form is Prakriti, the spectacle must include

OHAPTER SECOND. 81

Prakriti. The words used in explaining the term d/md in the
commentary on the last aphorism—“ a modification not different
from its primary form,” (svaripdbhinnah parindmah)—supports
this inference. This is, apparently, different from the doctrine of
Kapila who assigns 23 out of the 25 categories to the spectacle,
leaving out the soul and Prakriti; but in reality there is no
difference, except in the phraseology, as will be shown in the
twenty-first apborism.

The four terms have been differently rendered by different
translators. The terms used above have been taken from Cole-
brooke and Wilson’s ‘Safkhya Kériké.’ Mr. Davies, in his
‘Hindu Philosophy,’ adopts the first two, but for ‘ mergent”
uses “attributive,” and for “immergent” its negative. Dr.
Ballantyne uses “ diverse,” “non-diverse,” ‘merely resolvable”
and “irresolvable.” In translating apherism 45 of Book I, I
have rendered these words collectively with the subject, ९.14, into
‘‘ defined character,” ‘ undefined character,” ^" mere character”
and “devoid of character.” ]

Since the detestableness of spectacle must be first known, and
it having been described along with its conditions, to show what
should be accepted, the spectator, the author now says:

XX.
The spectator is absolute sentience, and, though
pure, still directly beholds intellected ideas.

“The spectator” (drask{d) is soul. He is “absolute senti-
ence” (drisimatra), sensation only. The object of using the
term “absolute” (mdéra) is to preclude the idea of the quality and
the qualified, (3. ९. he is himself sensation and not possessed
of sensation). Some explain sensation to be an attribute of
soul,

He, the spectator, ‘though pure,’ (Suddhopi), i. e. although
existing by himself in his own essence, being above all liability to
modification and the like, “directly beholds intellected ideas.”
Intellected ideas” (pratyayas) are knowledge tinctured by

11

82 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

worldly objects. “ Directly” (anu), without any intervention, or
without any medium, he beholds (pagyati).

What is said is this. Soul attains his spectatorship by his
proximity to intellect, which alone is tinctured or influenced by
passing objects.

{The soul is sentience only, ४ ९.) it consists of sentience and
nothing more. In this condition it is absolutely pure, being
unalloyed by any other object. It, nevertheless, directly beholds
intellected ideas, or is the percipient, of all ideas without any
intervention. This is effected by its proximity to the intellect,
which receives the impressions of the outer world. The act of
modification or change which perception implies is effected in
the intellect, and does not extend to the soul. This distinction is
necessary for the purpose of maintaining the immutability and
perfect purity of the soul, for the admission of change would
destroy its immutability and absolute purity. |

To show that soul alone is the experiencer, he says :

++".
Only for his purpose is the soul of the spectacle.

“Spectacle” (drisya) has been defined above (II, उणा).
© Its soul’ (दद) is its true nature. It, “ the soul of the spectacle,”
is required for “ his purpose,” for the purpose of consummating
the experiencership of soul to the exclusion of all selfish ends.
Pradhana in activity does not work with a view to attain any aim
of its own, but to accomplish the experiencership of soul.

(The meaning is that the true nature of the spectacle acts
solely to accomplish the purpose of soul, and not for any
purpose of its own, for it has none such. It will be noticed
that the text says it is the soul of the spectacle, and not
the spectacle itself, that subserves the purpose of soul, and
the question arises what is its soul? The word used in
the text is démd, which means soul, 7. ९, the soul of the
spectacle subserves the purpose of the soul of a living being.
The commentator explains dima by svartpa “ it own natural form,”

CHAPTER SECOND. 83

or true nature. In the commentary on A, उड, he uses the
words svaripabhinnah parindmah, or “a modification not dif-
ferent from its primary form,” neither of which carries us
directly to what is meant. It is obvious, however, from the use of
the word Pradh4na—Prakritiin the commentary on the aphorism
under notice, which in activity, is said, “ not to work with a view
to attain any aim of its own,” that the “soul of the spectacle”
is but another form of expression for Prakriti. That Prakriti
n activity is the spectacle is abundantly evident in the leading
works of the Safikhya system. Thus, in the Safkbya-kérika :

८ For the sake of soul’s wish, that subtile person exhibits (before it)

like a dramatic actor, through relation of means and consequence,

with the aid of nature’s influence.” (Verse उना), Again, “as
a dancer, having exhibited herself to the spectator, desists from
the dance, so does nature desist, having manifested herself to
soul.” (Verse tix). Again: “Generous nature, endued with
qualities, does by manifold means accomplish, without benefit
(to herself), the wish of the ungrateful soul, devoid as he is of
qualities.” (Verse tx). Again “he desists because he has seen
her; she does so, because she has been seen. In their (mere)

union there is no motive for creation.” (Verse Lxv1). Similarly
the Sdéfkhya Stitra: ^ Nature’s creating is for the sake of
another, though it be spontaneous,—for she is not the experi-
encer,—just like a cart carrying saffron (for the sake of its
master).” (Ballantyne, III, वश्या). Again, ^^ just like a dancer,

does she, though she had been energising, desist, because of the

end having been attained (in the shape of soul’s aim).” (Ibid.
III, पड). Nor is there any inconsistency in this, for intellect
does not differ from Prakriti except in being in activity ; and
“soul,” “true nature,” “original shape of the intellect,” and

other similar expressions must imply Prakriti or nature, and

nothing else. This will explain the remarks made in the note on

Aphorisms xvii and XIx.

Commenting on the passages quoted from the Safkhya-kéri-
k&, Mr. Davies observes, “ Beautiful as poetry, but not very

84 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

philosophic, nor in direct harmony with other parts of the
Séfikhya philosophy. Kapila, or I’svara Krishna, forgets that
nature (Prakriti) has no personality, no powers, no volition, and
no consciousness,” (p. 95.) This is not fair towards I’svara
Krishna, who provides for such criticism by saying, “as the
production of milk, which is unintelligent (unknowing), causes
the growth of the calf, so the developement of nature causes
the liberation of soul;” (Verse 11x;) and Kapila cites the
unintelligent cart carrying saffron for its owner. |

If the accomplishment of the experience of soul be thus the
only aim, then, on the accomplishment of that object, Prakriti,
having no other object in view, should cease to be active, and
the cessation of all modification in it, itself being pure, (४, ¢.,
having the three qualities in equipose) all spectators should be
free, and it would follow that the world would be cut short,
Suspecting such a consequence, he says :

XXII.

Destroyed in the case of him whose purpose has
been attained, she is still active, for she is common to
others besides him.

Although she (Prakrits—nature) becomes “destroyed” (nashfa),
devoid of action, in the case of some one soul which has attained
its purpose, (krifartha), by experiencing the world till the
manifestation of discriminative knowledge, yet she, being com-
mon to all souls, remains active (anashkf{a) in other cases. It
follows that Prakriti, being common to all experiencers, can never
be totally destroyed, nor can the emancipation of one imply the
emancipation ०५911. This is what is meant.

(The conclusion arrived at in the next preceding aphorism, to
the effect that on knowledge being attained, Prakriti ceases to act,
and becomes functionless, is calculated to suggest the idea that
her cessation from her action would apply to all souls, so that
on one soul attaining emancipation all souls would be free, there
being no active ministering Prakriti to keep them supplied with

CHAPTER SECOND. 85

external impressions. This, however, is not the case. The
destruction, or cessation, of action, is confined to the particular
soul concerned. When a soul has, through discriminative know-
ledge, attained his aim he ceases to be influenced by Prakriti,
and guod that soul Prakriti is destroyed ; but as regards other
souls which have not attained their aims she remains fully active ;
and this is indicated by the paradox “though dead, still she is
alive :”? nasktopyanashtam. This 18 the natural consequence of
nature being one, and souls many. The P. Bhdashya explains the
reason by saying that the contact of the quality to the qualified
is without a beginning ; dharmindm anddisatiyogat dharmamdatra-
ndmapyanddisanyogah. |

Having described spectacle and spectator he proceeds to
describe their conjunction.

XXIII.

Conjunction is the cause of the apprehension of the
natures of the inherent power and the lordship of
power.

He defines it through its function. “Inherent power” (svagakti)
is the nature of the spectacle. ‘Lordship of power” (svdmi-
$aktz) is the identity of the spectator. That ^ conjunction”
(safyoga) which is the cause of the apprehension of the natures
of the two, existing correlated as the knowable and the knower,
is the natural condition of the relation of the experience and the
experiencer, and no other. Nor is their conjunction of a different
character from their respective natures, which are eternal and all
pervading. The character of the experience as the experience and
of the experiencer as the experiencer is established from time
without a beginning, and that is the conjunction.

(The purport of this is that there is an inherent relation between
the experience as experienceable, and the experiencer as experiencer
from time without a beginning ; that is, this relation is not casual
or adventitious, produced at particular times by particular causes,

86 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

but natural and always existing. This relation of the two is
indicated by the term saziyoga or conjunction, and this conjunc-
tion or the natural relation of the two is the cause of worldliness.
As will be explained afterwards, the conjunction is not actual or
material, but a mere reflection of the one on the other.]

He now describes its cause

XXIV.
Its cause is ignorance.

That which has been described before (II, rv) as ^ ignorance”
(avidya), having the nature of doubt and delusion, is the cause
of the conjunction which has the form of indiscriminateness.

(The object of the text is to say that ignorance is the cause of
the conjunction of soul with intellect, and that conjunction
produces indiscriminateness, or the want of power on the part
of soul to distinguish between itself and intellect, and the
failure to do so leads to the feeling of the pleasures and
afflictions of the world being borne by it. When the differences
of the two are distinguished, the conjunction dissolves, and
soul is free. Dr. Ballantyne has been misled by the presence of
the word A4eya in the preamble of the following aphorism into the
supposition that that word is a part of the aphorism under notice,
and having incorporated it he has interpreted it as such. The
word, however, has been cited with reference to its use in a
preceding aphorism. |

The avoidable (Aeya) is the objective of the verb to avoid
(4é), and to explain what that avoidance is, he says :

XXV.
From its absence there is absence of conjunction,
and that is, avoidance. Thereupon results the isola-
tion of the spectator.

“ Tts,” ४, €.) 2 ignorance. On its “absence” (adhava), t.e., on
its being irradicated by perfect knowledge which is its essential

CHAPTER SECOND. 87

opposite, the effect of the conjunction ceases, or is absent, and this
absence is called “‘ avoidance” (Adua). The meaning is this: itis
not, practicable to separate ignorance like an embodied object,
but, on discriminative knowledge being produced, this conjunc-
tion, which has indiscriminitativeness for its cause, it of itself
ceases, and this is its avoidance (१८१८). That which is an
avoidance of the conjunction, is assumed to be an “ isolation”
(kaivalya) of the eternally isolated soul. In this way the
nature, cause, and effect of the conjunction is explained.

(The meaning is that when ignorance is irradicated by a right
apprehension of its relation to soul, its relation with soul
ceases, and this surcease makes the solitary eternal soul isolated
from ignorance and its consequences, and the soul remains
isolated, as is its nature. All my MSS. give the reading
५५ 0 eternally isolated” (nityakaivalyasya,) but Dr. Ballantyne,
has found a different version; his text has nztyam kevalasya,
which would give the meaning “ there is eternal isolation of the
solitary or isolated”—kevalasya nityam kaivalyam. The isola-
tion is in either case assumed to be everlasting, and hence this
isolation is believed to be final deliverance from bondage.

The word]kasvalya is derived from kevala, “ alone,” and “ isola-
tion” appears to be its most appropriate rendering ; but, inasmuch
as this isolation takes place by withdrawing or detaching the
soul from the phenomeral world, Colebrooke and Wilson use
८८ abstraction.” The Sdttkyatattva-kaumudi defines it to be
‘absolute suppression of the three kinds of pain, as a property
of sacred writ, holy sages, and inspired teachers or prophets.
It must, therefore, be something different from intellect and the
rest which are the same thing as pain, and cannot effect a spera-
tion form their own essence.” (S‘astranam makarshinam divya-
lochanandém cha kaivalyam chatyantikaduhkha-trayaprasama-
lakshanam na buddhyddindm sambhavati, te hi dukkhatmakah
katham svabhavadibhih mochayitum sakyanti.) Vijnana Bhikshu
defines it in the same way, and calls it absolute extirpation of
pain (dukkhatyantikochchhedah). Any way, it is the final reward

88 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

of the knowledge advocated and the practice of meditation
enjoined in this system of philosophy. ]

Now, by way of describing the means of avoidance he points
out the cause of the acceptable.

XXVI.

The means of avoidance is the manifestation of
undisturbed discriminative knowledge.

५८ Discriminative knowledge” (viveka) is the name of the
knowledge (which shows) that qualities are distinct from soul.
Its ^ manifestation” (kkydtz) is the means (updya) or cause
of the “avoidance” (८) or rejection of the visible. How
should this be? It should be “ undisturbed,” (८४७०९८०८). That
which has no interruptions, or breaks or repeated intervals of
waking from meditation, is called undisturbed.

The purport of it is this: on the disolution of ignorance,
from the contemplation of that which is adverse to it, the
cessation of all ideas of relationship, agency, &c., the vanishing
of the dirt of foulness and darkness, and the refluent modification
of the intellect, the reflection of soul on intellect is called dis-
criminative knowledge. And by the constant or uninterrupted
prevalance of it the function of the spectacle ceases, and this is
isolation.

[The object of the aphorism is twofold ; Ist, to point out the
means of avoiding the avoidable, 2nd, to indicate, by implication
what should be accepted. The means of avoiding the avoidable,
that is ignorance, is the cultivation of discriminative knowledge
without any break or interruption. Light and darkness cannot
exist conjointly, light must always destroy darkness, and as dis-
criminative knowledge is light, and ignorance darkness, the one
disappears on the other becoming manifest. Were, however, the
light to be fitful, or interrupted, there would be certain periods of
light and others of darkness, and to preclude this the injunction is
added that the light “should be undisturbed” or uninterrupted.

CHAPTER SECOND. 89

The second object is implied, but not pointed out. If continuous
light is necessary it follows as a matter of course that that is
what should be accepted. }

Having described the enlightenment which takes place in the
soul on the taking place of discriminative knowledge, he defines
the nature of the discriminative knowledge.

XXVIT.

Of that there are, up to its utmost stage, seven kinds
of enlightenment.

“Of that,” ६. €.) of the produced discriminative knowledge,
the “enlightenment” (prajna), with the understanding of what
should be known is, to its “utmost stage,” (prantabhimi) 2. ९.9
to the stage of Samadhi, along with all its accessories, of seven
kinds.

Thereof four are liberation from work, viz., (1) The knowable
has beenknown by me. (2) There is nothing remaining to be
known. (3) My afflictions are overcome, and there is nothing
for me to overcome. (4) Knowledge has been acquired by me,
discriminative knowledge has been attained by me. Thus, in
these states, by rejecting all other conceptions, these kinds of un-
derstanding are produced. This understanding, which is pure
knowledge regarding work, is called liberation from work.

Intellectual liberation is of three kinds, ४६८.) (1) my intellect
has accomplished its purpose. (2) The qualities have finished
their domination over me; like stones fallen from the crest of
४ mountain they cannot go back to their place; for, tending to
dissolution in their own cause, and there being a want of the
original cause which is ignorance, and in the absence of a
motive, how can there be springing up of the evilones? (3) And
my meditation has been identified with my soul. Such being
the case I am existing in my real nature. These three kinds
are intellectual liberation. Thus, on the springing up of this
sevenfold knowledge to the utmost stage (of meditation) the soul
is said to be isolated.

12

90 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

[The knowledge which is the aim and object of this system
of philosophy is, according to its different states of perfection,
classed under two heads; one relating to works, and the other to
intellect. The first of these two heads is then divided into
four, and the second into three sub-heads, making altogether
seven stages. The lowest stage is that in which the Yogi feels
that he has known all that has to be known. The next is that
in which he, in addition to the first, feels that he has nothing
more to learn. In the third there is, in addition to the first
two, the conviction, that all impediments to knowledge have
been destroyed, and there is nothing more to destroy. These
three lead to the conviction that the full amount of discriminative
knowledge has been acquired, and this constitutes the fourth.
All these refer to external nature, and since they are connected
with the active creation or works, they are called liberation from
work, The second group refers exclusively to the intellect or
the thinking principle. The convictions, 1st, that the intellect
has done its office by pointing out the distinction between soul and
nature ; 2nd, that the qualities which govern the functions of the
intellect have lost their influence; and 3rd, that the intellect has
merged in the soul, refer to the relation of the intellect to the
soul, and as the conviction is that the intellect has lost its power on
the soul, therefore, it is called intellectual liberation. All these, it
will be perceived, are dependant upon judgment, or conscious-
ness of the effects of certain actions, and therefore relate to con-
scious or seeded meditation. (Cf. B.I, A.17.) The function of
deliberation or judgment resulting from ratiocianation is in every
instance present, and the ideas of, I, me, and mine, govern
the whole. But when the judgment is brought to this final
stage there is nothing more to do, and then follows the uncon-
scious condition which is absolute isolation. ]

Having described that the cause of discriminative knowledge
is the cessation of conjunction, he now explains what are the
means of its origin,

CHAPTER SECOND. 91

XXVITI.

On the decay of impurity through the practice of
the accessories of the Yoga, there is an illumination
of the understanding till discriminative knowledge
(results).

‘‘The accessories of the Yoga” (70041144) are what will be
presently described, (अद्य इ.) =^ The practice” (anush{hana) there-
of is the intelligent exercise of the same till discriminative
knowledge results. ^ 00 the decay of impurity,” (asuddhi-
kshaya), 2, e., onthe decline of the impurity which is of the form
of afflictions of the character of an envelope tothe manifestation
of the thinking principle, whatever “ Illumination of the under-
standing” (jndanadipti) takes place, greater or less, by the modi-
fication of the principle of goodness till the time of the manifes-
tation of the discriminative knowledge, the same becomes the
cause of that manifestation: this is the meaning.

[The commentary explains the aphorism in a roundabout
way. The purport is that by the practice of certain exercises
the impurities which surround the thinking principle are gradu-
ally destroyed, and as they are destroyed so there results a gradual
enlightenment which culminates, on perfect maturity, in discrimi-
native knowledge. ]

The decay of impurity by the practice of the accessories of the
Yoga having been thus described, the question arises what are
those accessories ? (To this question) he replies.

XXIX.
Restraint, obligation, posture, regulation of the
breath, abstraction, devotion, contemplation, and medi-
tation are the eight accessories.

Some of these being directly beneficial to profound meditation
are intimate accessories, such as devotion, &c. Others sub-
serve profound meditation by eradicating hesitation and adverse

92 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

feelings of slaughter, &c., such as restraint, obligation, &. Among
them posture and the rest are successively subservient (to
samAdhi). Thus on the acquisition of posture there is steadiness
in the regulation of breath. The successive ones are to be
explained in the same way.

[These eight areclassed under two heads, Ist, general or extrinsic,
and, 2nd, special or intrinsic. The first two are general, because
they are obligatory at all times ; the other six are intrinsic, because
they subserve the purpose of the Yoga, but are not otherwise
necessary. What these eight are will be explained in the follow-
ing aphorisms. |

He now successively explains their nature.

XXX.

Restraint includes abstinence from slaughter, false-
hood, theft, incontinence, and avarice.

“ Slaughter” (47754) is work which requires the destruction of
life; it is the root of all evils, and its absence is “‘ non-slaughter,”
(ahiisd). As slaughter should be avoided at all times, its
absence implied by non-slaughter is first mentioned.

“ Veracity” (satya) is confirmity in mind and speech with
fact.

“Theft” (steya) is forcibly taking another’s property; and
its absence 18 “ non-theft” (asteya).

“‘ Continence” (drakmacharya) is subjugation of carnality.

८ Non-avarice” (aparigraka) is the non-acceptance of objects
for the promotion of enjoyment.

These five, non-slaughter, &c., are indicated by the term yama,
restraints, and reckoned as accessories to Yoga.

[These restraints figure prominently in all Hindu systems, and
are by no means peculiar to the Yoga. They obtain equal
prominence among the Jains and the Buddhists; the latter call
them Piéramités. Using the term restraint, for Yama, I have
found it necessary for the sake of English idiom and uniformity
of expression to use the roundabout form of abstinence from false-

CHAPTER SECOND. 93

hood, &c., instead of the direct positive terms veracity (satya), &c.,
which the text employs. They form the ground-work without
which no religious superstructure is possible. ]

He points out a peculiarity of these.

XXXI.

These are the great austerities of all stages, irrespec-
tive of kind, locality, time, and compact.

“ Kind” (jatz), such as Braéhmanhood (conf. ante, p. 71).
“ Locality” (desa), such as particular sacred pools, &c. ‘‘ Time”
(kala), such as the fourteenth lunation and the like. ‘ Compact”
(samaya), the requirement of a Brahmana, &c. These are called
the great austerities (mahkavratas). They are imperative in all
conditions or stages of the thinking principle, “irrespective”
(anavachchhinna) of these four conditions of kind, &c., 2. ¢., it
does not mean that “I shall not kill a Bréhmana,” “TI shall not
kill any one in a sacred pool,” “I shall commit no slaughter on
the 14th lunation,” ^^ I shall not kill except for gods, Brébmanas,
&c.,”’ implying four specific conditions, but that “I shall not
for any purpose whatsoever, kill any one at any place, at any
time.” The others should be explained in the same way. Thus,
when these practices are universal, without any qualification,
they are called “ great austerities.” Their interrupted observance
is not so.

[106 purport is that these restraints should be observed with
reference to all kinds of being, at every place, at all times, and
under every circumstance, without any qualification whatsoever.
The object of adverting to “compact” is to leave no room for
religious sacrifices, such as the Vedas enjoin. They are, in

the estimation of the Yogi, as objectionable as unauthorised
slaughter. }

He next describes obligation.
XXXII.

The obligations are purification, contentment,
penance, study, and devotion to the Lord.

{)-} APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

“ Purification” (saucha) is of two kinds, external and internal.
External (vd4ya) means the washing of the body with earth,
water, &c. The internal (aztara) is the washing, by means of
friendliness and the like, of all dirt from the thinking principle.
“Contentment” (santoska) contentedness. The others have
already been explained. These, purification and the rest, are
indicated by the term niyama, “ obligation.”

[These obligations are common to all persons, whether Yogis
or otherwise. They must be attended to very carefully as much to
prepare oneself for the performance of the Yoga, as for the well-
being of ordinary worldly life.]

How these are accessories to the Yoga, he next explains,

XXXITI.

By the exclusion of the questionable the thought of
its opposite (18 acquired ).

(Those things which) cause doubts or questioning are ^^ ques-
tionables” (Vitarka), and these, including slaughter and the like,
are inimical to the follower of Yoga. When they are obstructed
or excluded by the thought of their opposites, then Yoga becomes
easily achievable, and the restraints and obligations consequently
become accessories to Yoga.

[The restraints keep one from the performance of certain ques-
tionable acts, and the obligations train one habitually to avoid
the questionables, and thereby the thinking principle is prepared
for undisturbed concentration in the performance of the Yoga.
The restraints and the obligations necessarily become accessories
to the Yoga, and are therefore so called.]

Now he successively describes the natures, the distinctions, the
varieties, the causes, and the fruits of the questionables.

XXXIV.

The questionables are slaughter and the rest.
(Whether) they are done, caused to be done, or abet-
ted; (whether) preceded by longing, anger or delu-

CHAPTER SECOND. 95

sion; (whether) slight, moderate or excessive; they
have pain and ignorance for their endless fruits.
Hence (the necessity) of the thought of opposites.

The aforesaid slaughter and the rest are first divided into
three kinds, viz., done, caused to be done, and abetted. Thereof
those which are accomplished by oneself are “done” (krita).
Those which follow from orders to the effect ‘‘do them,” ^^ they
should be done,” are caused to be done kirita). Those which,
on being accomplished by others, are encouraged by (the saying)
“well done, well done,” are “abetted” (anumodita). These three
forms are described to prevent mistakes respecting them ; other-
wise a dull-witted person might fancy, ^^ the slaughter has not
been completed by me, so no fault rests on me.”

To indicate their causes he says, “ proceeded by longing, anger,
or delusion.” Although longing and anger are first noticed, yet
since delusion, which is characterised by its accepting that to be
soul which is not soul, the source of all pains, and since longing
and anger arise from distinctions about differences of relation as
to one’s own or another, delusion should be known to be the root,
2. €., all faults proceed from antecedent delusion. ‘ Longing”
(lobha)) is thirst. ^^ Anger” (krodha) is an inflammatory fune-
tion of the thinking principle, which sets aside all sense of dis-
crimination about what is proper and what is improper. Each
of these is threefold, according as it is distinguished by being done,
caused to be done, &c., and slaughter and the rest are divisible
into these according as they are caused by delusion, &c.

They are again divided into three kinds according as they are
“mild, moderate, and excessive.” ^^ Mild,” (manda) are slow,
2. ९. neither excessive nor moderate. The “ moderate” (madhya-
ma) are neither mild nor excessive. The “ excessive” (adhv-
matra) are ardent, neither mild nor moderate.

Thus there are nine kinds, and these being three-fold the total
becomes twenty-seven. Again, of the mild &c., each being
divisible according as it is mild, moderate and excessive, becomes

96 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

threefold. The combination to be made as it becomes appro-
priate; thus mildly mild (mridu-mridu) ‘ mildly moderate”
(mridu-madhya), ^ mildly ardent,” (mridu-tivra).

Their fruits he describes (by the words) “having pain and
ignorance for endless fruits.” Pain (dwAkha) 18 a function of the
quality of foulness, manifesting itself in the form of repugnance.
“ Tgnorance” (ajndna) is false knowledge in the form of doubt
or error. Their fruits are indicated by (the compound term)
duhkhajndnananta-phaléh. From such pain and ignorance pro-
ceed “ endless” (ananta) unintermitting fruit. What is enjoined
is that these should be overcome by the Yogi, who has known
their nature, cause, &c. by thinking on their opposites.

[The works condemned by the restraints and the obligations
have been lumped together under the name of questionable (Vi¢ar-
ka) for easy treatment, and then their natures, distinctions,
varieties and fruits are generally described. They call for no
explanatory remark. |

In order to explain how perfections arise successively by
ardent exercise of these (duties) he says:

XXXV.

When non-slaughter is confirmed (there is) near
him abandonment of enmity.

In the neighbourhood of him who is confirmed in non-
slaughter there is ‘abandonment of enmity” (vairatydga), or
harmless abidance even on the part of the naturally cruel, such
as of serpents and mungooses. The meaning is, those that are
addicted to injury, give up their injurious nature.

[The purport is obvious. When the restraint from
slaughter has been acquired there cannot exist any feeling of
enmity, and, naturally hostile individuals, having acquired it, live
in peace and harmony, like serpents and mungooses, which are
naturally hostile to each other, and yet under the influence of
the virtue may dwell together without injuring each other.]

CHAPTER SECOND. 97

He next describes what becomes of him who practices veracity.

XXXVI.

In the confirmed in veracity (there is) asylum of
the fruit of works.

“Works” (12/44) are the sacrifices, which, when performed,
yield the fruits heaven, &. The Yogi who practices veracity
rises to such greatness that he attains the fruits without per-
forming those works, and at his bidding they may be attained
by any one soever, without performing those works. Such is
the meaning.

[Veracity or abstinence from falsehood is here described to be
as meritorious as the sacrificial rites enjoined in the Vedas; 3. ८.)
by practising veracity with unswerving faith one acquires the
same merit which the sacrifices yield, and that without its being
tainted by the cruelty which attends sacrifices. The P. Bhashya
explains that he becomes virtuous, and as a virtuous person
attains heaven (which is the reward of virtuous works), and his
speech becomes fruitful. (Dharmika bhiiyd iti bhavati. Dhar-
mikak svargam prapnuhiti svargam prapnoti, amoghdsya vdg-
bhavati.)]

He now describes the reward of him who abstains from theft.

XXXVIT.

Jewels from all sides approach him who is confirmed
in abstinence from theft.

When a Yogi practices abstinence from theft, and that absti-
nence rises to a high pitch, jewels from all sides come to him
without his wishing them.

[The object here is to show that what may be acquired with
great trouble by theft, may be had unsought by scrupulous
abstinence from theft. ]

The fruit of continence he next describes.

13

98 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

XXXVIIL.
Attainment of vigour in confirmed continence.

Whoever steadfastly practices continence obtains, on its attain-
ing its highest pitch, ^“ vigour” (virya), or manly power comes
in him. Conservation of manly vigour is continence, and on
its attaining a high degree, vigour comes in plenty in the body,
the organs and the mind.

(The meaning is that there is always a loss of vigour by in-
continence, and therefore the Yogi should abstain from it in
order to conserve his vigour. |

He next points out the fruit of non-covetousness.

XX XIX.
On non-covetousness being confirmed there 18
conscience of all about births.

The word kathantd is the abstract form of katham ‘what,’ or
‘what all about,’ and janma-kathantad means all about births, and
the full knowledge thereof is its ‘conscience’ (sambodha).
The meaning is that he knows all about the questions, ^ What
was I in a former birth? Who was 1? What did I do?”

Covetousness is not confined to objects of enjoyment ; it extends
to the soul’s desire to have a body, for that too is covetousness,
since the body is needed for enjoyment. And such being the
case, the knowledge of principles cannot prevail, while the
inclinations are disposed outwards from the excess of the quality
of foulness. Now, when on giving up all desire for the body
and the rest, an indifference is attained, then to the indifferent
being, devoid of foulness, an acquaintance with all past and future
existences becomes a cause of thorough knowledge.

(The reward here spoken of is transcendental ; it enables the
observer of abstinence from all covetousness to see by his mental
eye all that has happened to him in former births, and what will
happen hereafter. |

Having thus described the perfections of the restraints, he now
describes the obligations,

CHAPTER SECOND. 99

XI.

From purity (proceed) loathing for one’s own
members, and non-intercourse with others.

For him who practises purity there is a “loathing” (ugupsd)
or detestation produced for even the members of his own body
from discrimination of their nature and cause. (The idea then
18) ^“ This body is impure, no fondness for it should be cherished.”
And for the same reason there results a ^^ non-intercourse,’?
(48054702) absence of relationship, or avoidance of mixing with
“others,” (paraih), ४. e., with other embodied persons. This is
the meaning. How can he who loaths his own body from per-
ceiving its this or that fault, wish to have intercourse with other
bodies of the same description ?

[The purity as defined in the commentary on A, XXXII.
(p. 94) 18 obviously confined to contact with dirt and conscious-
ness of the body being naturally impure. Here the latter phase
is magnified to the extent of making the embodied loath his
own body, and @ fortiorar: all bodies. |

He describes other fruits of purity.

XLII.

Moreover, purification of goodness, complacency,
concentration, subjugation of the organs, and fitness
for beholding soul.

(The words) “are produced” are required to complete the
sentence. ‘‘ Goodness” (sativa) consists of light, joy, &c. Its
purification, is its not being oppressed (or overcome) by the
qualities of foulness and darkness. ‘ Complacency” (sawmanasya)
is mental satisfaction from non-perception of distress. = ^ Con-
centration” (ekdgratd) is fixedness of the thinking principle on
any sensuous object to which it may be directed. ^ Subjuga-
tion of the organs” (indriyajaya) is the abidance in themselves
of the organs diverted from their objects. ‘Fitness of behold-

100 APHORISMS OF PATANIJALI.

ing soul” (d¢madarsanayogyatva) is the adaptation of the
thinking principle to do so on the manifestation of knowledge.
To one who is practised in purity these, purification of goodness
and the rest, successively manifest themselves. Thus, from
purity comes purification of goodness; from purification of
goodness, complacency ; from complacency, concentration ; from
concentration, subjugation of the organs; from subjugation of
the organs, fitness to behold soul.

{This aphorism is the sequel of the preceding one; it enu-
merates advantages in addition to those previously described.
The advantages noted are of obvious import. ]

The fruit of exercising contentment.

+ 111.
From contentment, (proceeds) superlative felicity.

From contentment becoming excessive such internal felicity
arises for the Yogi, as cannot be equalled by the pleasures of
external objects, even to the extent of a hundredth part of it.

(The meaning is obvious. ]

The fruit of austerity.

XLII.

Through austerity results the perfection of the
body and the organs, from decay of impurity.

Through the decay of impurity of the form of distress and
the like by the exercise of austerity there arises in the mind a
^ perfection” (siddht) or superiority of the body and the organs.
The meaning 13 this, the afflictions of the thinking principle
decay by the performance of Chandr&yana and other fasts.
From that decay the organs acquire the power of perceiving
the minute, the hidden, and the remote, and the body (the power
of assuming) at pleasure the form of a molecular, or great mag-
nitude.

CHAPTER SECOND. 101

[Briefly the purport of the aphorism is that by attaining
perfection in austerity, a Yogi acquires transcendental powers ;
his organs are then able to grasp all kinds of objects,
whether they be so minute as not to be ordinarily perceivable
by the senses, or so hidden as not to be accessible to the senses,
or so remote as to be beyond their range.

The reference to the Chéndradyana is a mere illustration, the
object is to imply austerity generally, and not to such only as
are enjoined as penances. The object is not penance or expia-

tion for sins committed, but the general mortification of the
flesh. |

The fruit of muttering.
XLIV.

Through muttering results the cognition of the
desiderated deity.

. On the perfection of “ muttering” (sddhydya) characterised
by the repetition or the like of a selected mantra, there results
a cognition on the part of the Yogi of the deity desiderated :
the meaning is that that deity becomes visible to him.

[The word svdédhydya means the study of the Vedas, but here
it is used in the technical sense of muttering or inaudibly re-
peating a great many timesany selected mantra. This is closely
analogous to the counting of the rosary. |

The fruit of contemplating on the Lord.

XLV.

Meditation is completed through the contemplation
of the Lord.

Whoever is thus devoted tv the Lord, in him “ meditation”
(samadhi) of the kind described (C1 AL.) becomes manifest,
because that Divine Lord, being pleased, excites meditation by
removing all obstructive afflictions (from the way).

(The theistical character of Patanjali’s doctrine is here estab-
lished by the admission that the divinity may, when contem-

102 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

plated, help to promote the object of the Yoga. Kapila repndiates
the idea. ]

Having described the restrictions and the obligations, he now
proceeds to describe posture.

XLVI.

Posture (is that which is) firm and pleasant.

“ Posture” (5८77८) is that whereby one sits, such as Padmasana,
Dandisana, Svastikdsana, &c. When that seat becomes “ firm’
(sthira) or devoid of agitation, and “ pleasant” (sukha) or not
uncomfortable, then it is reckoned as an accessory of the Yoga.

(The word dsana ordinarily implies the material adapted for sitting
upon, such as a rug, a mat, a board, a chair, or the like, but here it
has been used for particular modes or attitudes of sitting, and therefore
I have translated it into posture and not seat. The aphorism re-
commends such postures as ensure steadiness and comfort; but the
postures as described in other works do not convey to a worldly under-
standing any such idea. Brahmdnanda, in his commentary on the
Hathapradipika, says that Vasishtha, Yajnavalkya and other ancient
sages had described 84 postures as appropriate for Yogis, and that
Siva, the greatest of Yogis, was their author. He adds that Gorak-
shanatha, a Yogi of a later date, but of great renown, reckoned the
total number of appropriate postures at 84,00,000. (Chaturass-
tilakshdni cha taduktam Gorakshandthena.) Of the 84 some are
common, some are more important. Svatmdrdma, in the Hathapra-
dipiké, describes ten as “more important” for the performance of
the Hathayoga. These are called, 1, Svastika ; 2, Gomukka ; 3, Vira;
4, Kuirma; 5, Kukkuta; 6, Utténa-kirmaka ; 7, Dhanuh; 8, Hat-
syandtha ; 9, Maytra; 10, Sava. The most important ones are: 1,
Siddha alias Mukia alias Gupta; 2, Padma; 3, Sitha; 4, Bhadra
alias Goraksha. The P. Bhdshya does not enter into any detail, but
names the following as examples, viz., 1, Padma or lotus; 2, Vira
or heroic; 3, Bhadra or decent; 4, Svastika or the mystic diagram
so called ; 5, Danda or staff-like ; 6, Sopdsraya or self-reliant ; 7, Pary-
atka or bedstead-like ; 8, Kraudcha-nisidana or like the posture of the
seated heron; 9, Hasti-nishidana or seated elephant; 10, Ushtra-

nishidana or seated camel ; 11, Samasansthana or evenly poised. The
following are brief accounts of the ways in which the postures are
assumed.

1. Padmdsana. The right foot should be placed on the left
thigh, and the left foot on the right thigh; the hands should be
crossed, and the two great toes should be firmly held thereby ; the
chin should be bent down on the chest; and in this posture the eyes
should be directed to the tip of the nose. It is called Padmdsana,
and is highly beneficial in overcoming all diseases,*

2. Virdsana. Place each foot under the thigh of its side, and it
will produce the heroic posture Virdsana.t

3. Bhadrdsana. Place the hands in the form of a tortoise in
front of the scrotum, and under the feet and this is Bhadrdsana.t =

4. Svastikdsana. Sitting straight with the feet placed under the
(opposite) thighs is called Svastikasana.§

5. Dandisana. Seated with the fingers grasping the ankles
brought together and with feet placed extended on the legs. ||

6. Sinhdsana. Let the ankles be placed under the testes, the
left ankle on the right side of the suture (the mesian line) and the
right on the left side of the suture; let the hands placed on the
knees, and the fingers extended; let the mouth be wide open, and
the sight be directed to the tip of the nose while one is in deep contem-

plation ; and it will produce the lion posture Sithdsana, the adored
of all Yogis.*

7. Put the right ankle on the left side of the chest, and similarly
the left ankle on the right side, and the posture will be Gomukha,
or of the shape of a cow’s mouth.t

8. Closing the anus with the two ankles crossed while the mind is
under control, produces, say the knowers of Yoga, the tortoise pos-
ture, Kurmasana.t

9. Having established the lotus posture, if the hands be passed
between the thigh and the knees and placed on the earth so as to lift
the body aloft, it will produce the Fowl seat, Kukkufdsana.§

10. Having assumed the fowl posture, should the two hands be
placed on the sides of the neck it would make the posture like that of

the tortoise upset; it is called upset tortoise posture, Uttanakurmakd-
sana. ||
11. Hold the great toes with the hands, and draw them to the

ears as in drawing a bowstring, and this is called the bow posture,
Dhanurdsana.§

12. Place the right foot on the roof of the left thigh, surround
the right knee with the left, foot, and sit with the body twisted, and
it will result in the Matsyandthdsana or posture Matsyandatha.**

18. Mayurdsana. Hold the earth with both hands placing the
elbows on the sides of the navel, and keep the body erect like a
staff: this is called the Maytrdsana or peacock posture.*

14. Siddhdsana. Place the left ankle onthe membrum virile, and
thereupon put the right ankle, and if completes the Siddhdsana.t

Besides these A’sanas, Yogis have a great many postures or ges-
tures which they reckon under the name of Mudrd, to which, how-
ever, no mention is made here in the text. In Tantric rituals the
technical difference between an A’sana and a Mudré depends upon
the organs employed. An A’sana or seat is by its very nature connected
with the disposition of the lower limbs, whereas the Mudrd depends
upon the motion of the upper limbs; and in the Tantras all symbols
produced by twining the fingers or placing the hands in particular
positions are recognised as Mudrds. The Yogis have also some
Mudras of the same kind; but in their more important Mudras the
distinction is entirely lost sight of, and hands and feet alike come into
play to produce the A’sanas as well asthe Mudrds. The great and
most remarkable distinctive character of the Mudra appears, however,
to be its connection with the regulation of breath. The Gheranda
6८244८4 describes in all twenty-five Mudras, and the Hafhadipika
recognises ten of these as the most important ‘in warding off decay
and death,” (jardmaranandsanam.) These are — 1 Mahdmudra; 2,
Mahabandha; 3, Mahadvedha; 4, Khechari; 5, Uddiyana; 6, Mila-
bandha; 7, Jalandhara; 8, Viparita-karani ; 9, Vajroni; 10, S‘akti-
chdlana.t The following are brief descriptions of these gesticulations
and of the advantages to be derived from them:

1. Mahdadmudrd. Pressing the perineum by the heel of the left
foot, the right foot should be extended, and then held fast by the two

hands. Then closing the throat the wind should be held above.
Even as a snake struck by a staff stretches like a staff, so the coiled
S‘akti (breath) suddenly becomes straight, for then she is in a state of
dying in the two nostrils. Then the wind should be discharged steadily,
but not forcibly. The wisest of the wise call this Mahdmudra.*

2. Mahdbandha. Let the heel of the left foot be put under the
perineum, and the right foot on the left thigh, and, having drawn io
breath, let the chin be pressed hard on the chest, and the wind be held
fast in the heart. After holding the wind as long as one is able, let it
be slowly expired. When the expiration is complete, let the operation
be repeated on the right side. (This shows that the breath in the
first instance should be drawn by the left nostril.)

8. Mahdvedha. While performing the Mahdbandha should the
Yogi effect the suppression of the breath in the Khechari style by
closing the passage of the wind by the throat Mudr&, and then,
putting the hands evenly on the ground, drive the wind slowly to-
wards the buttocks, it is Mahkdvedha.t

4. Khecharé. When the tongue is reversed and pressed into the
thollow of the head and the sight is fixed at a spot in the middle of
the two eyebrows, the posture is called Khechari.*

5. Uddiydnabandha is that posture in which the wind flies
upwards by the susumné vessel frum the right side of the belly above
the navel.t

6. Mulabandha. When the heel is pressed against the perineum,
the anus is contracted, and the Apdéna wind is by force directed up-
wards, it is Mulabandha,t

7. Jdlandharabandha. When the throat is contracted and the
chin is pressed hard on the chest it is Jélandhara posture, the de-
atroyer of decay and death.§

directed that way for two muhitrtas and when it comes to the susumna&
yessel, stop it and this is S’ektichdlana. (Loosely translated.)*

According to some the Bandhas, on distinct form the Mudras, (Cf.
N.C. Pal’s treatise on the Yoga.)

Treating of a system of philosophy Patanjali bas not thought
proper to enter into details, regarding age, sex, caste, food, dwelling, =
&c. as bearing upon Yoga, but other works supply information
about them to a considerable extent. A few notes derived therefrom
may not be unfitly added here. The first question that would arise
would be—who are fit to perform the Yoga ? On this subject the Hatha-
pradiptkd fixes no limit. It says, “by the practice of Yoga, every
one may attain perfection, whether he be youthful, or old, or very
old, or diseased, or decrepit.”f The next point is the selection of a
proper place, ^ A small monastery, a dwelling not larger than a cube of
six feet, situated in an out-of-the-way place where there is no danger
within a circuit of a bow, of hail, fire and water, in a country abounding
in food and free from danger of wars and the like, where religion
prevails, ina thriving kingdom,” is the most appropriate. The cell
or mathike should have a small door and no window; it should be free
from holes, cavities, inequalities, high steps and low descents; it
should be smeared with cow-dung, devoid of dirt, not infested by ver-
min, with a terrace in front, a good well, and the whole surrounded by
a wall. Dwelling in sucha place, avoiding all anxieties, the Yogi
should follow the path pointed out by his teachers in the exercise of

the Yoga.® He should avoid all excess of food, violent exertions, and
vain disputations. His food should consist of wheat, sali rice, barley,
Shashti rice (or that which matures in six days), the syama and the
0015818 grains, milk, clarified butter, coarse or candied sugar, butter,
honey, ginger, palval, fruits, five kinds of greens, mung pulse, and
water,’’ and all soothing sweet things in a moderate quantity, avoid-
ing flesh-meat and too much salt, acids, and all stale, putrid, decomposed
or acrid substances. The quantity of food taken should be such ae
to leave one-fourth of his appetite unappeased.f

He describes the means of making the seat firm and pleasant.

XLVII.

Through slightness of effort and attainment of the
infinite.

The construction of the sentence is that through slightness of
effort and through attainment of the infinite the seat becomes firm
and pleasant. When the wish is formed, ‘I shall adopt this
posture,’ and that posture is accomplished even with “ slightness of
effort,” 8. ¢., without difficulty, and when the thinking principle is
reposited in the infinity of space or the like, and by understanding
it becomes of it, then from absence of the body and of egotism the
posture does not become painful. When this controul over posture
is accomplished agitations of the body and such other obstructives
to meditation do not arise.

CHAPTER SECOND. 111

{The object here is to point out that when by practice one
becomes able to assume any position at will, without any diffi-
culty, and, adverting to the dogma that the thinking princi-
ple assumes the form of the object it thinks of, when by
thinking on any infinite object, such as the sky, it becomes itself
infinite, it feels no pain or uneasiness in assuming any posture,
however painful it may otherwise be. The means of attaining
firmness of seat thus are practice and the contemplation of bound-
less objects. ||

A fruit thereof when accomplished.

XLVIII.
Thereupon non-embarrasment by the pairs.

The meaning is that on the controul of posture being accom-
plished, the Yogi is no longer oppressed or embarrased by the
pairs, 8. ¢., cold and heat, hunger and thirst, and the like.

[This is the ultimate fruit of attaining perfection in assuming
the different postures above adverted to. |

Having thus described how to controul the postures he describes
regulation of breath.

XLIX.

On its being accomplished the regulation of breath
(which is) interruption in the flow of inspiration and
expiration.

On posture becoming firm that auxiliary of the Yoga which
is regulation of breath and of which firmness of posture is the
cause, should be practised.

How is it characterised by the interruption in the flow of.
inspiration and expiration? Inspiration and expiration have been
already defined (B. I. A. xxxiv.) The “ interruption” (vichchheda)
or stoppage of the twofold “ flow” (gatz) or current in places
outside and inside produced by means of expelling or filling of
the breath is called Prandydma or regulation of breath.

112 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

{Here the true Praynéy4ma is accepted to be the interruption
or break in the flow of the breath. The inspiration and the
expiration are the functions of which the stoppage is the most
effectual act for the attainment of perfect meditation. It is
called Aumbhaka, or quiescence, and the longer it is sustained the
more proficient becomes the Yogi. When perfect controul has
been attained in this respect, the Yogi can live buried under earth
for months and years without peforming any organic function
whatever. |

For its better understanding, he describes its nature after
showing its distinctions.

L.
That, again, is an external, an internal, and a
stationary function; it is divided by place, time, and
number; it is protracted or subtile.

The “external function” of breath is expiration, or expulsion
of the breath outward (rechaka). The “ internal function” is in-
spiration or filling in (puiraka). The function of stoppage inside
is kumbhaka. Because the vital air at that time remains quiescent
or motionless, as water in a jar, (17064) therefore that condition
is called kumbhaka.

This regulation of breath is of three kinds, according as it is
specialised by space (des‘a), “ time” (kala), and ‘ number”
(sattkhya). 1४ 18 also “ protracted” (dérgha), or “subtile” (sukh-
ma). It is especialised by place, as (when we say) “ twelve
distant from the nose,” meaning as far as twelve fingers from
the nose. It is specialised by time, as (when we say) “ of the
duration of thirty-six instants.” It is specialised by ^^ number,”
when (we say) ‘many times done.”

By these inspirations and expirations the first udghata is
produced, and to know this a numeral figure has to be used.
Udghdta is the striking of the head by the wind propelled upward

from the navel.

CHAPTER SECOND. 113

{The object of this aphorism is to describe the 1६06६7४.
It is an operation which includes the three functions of inspira-
tion, quiescence, and expiration. The breath must be drawn in `
first before it can be retained within; the retention cannot last
long, and so after a time there must be an expiration. The first
and the third, however, are regulated by the capacity of the lungs,
and by the time necessary for the expulsion of a given quantity
of air, and cannot be much modified, and the second alone, there-
fore, concerns the Yogi most, for he can controul it to a consider-
able extent, and hence it is held to be the most important element
of the Pranfyama; not unoften, as in the last preceding apho-
rism, it alone is described as the Pranayéma. The threefold
operation is specialized by the time devoted to each operation,
by the extent of space from which the breath is drawn, by the
number of times it is repeated, by the period for which it bas been
practised, and by the subtility or grossness of the operation.

The operation of udghdéa is mysterious. I cannot find out from
any work or person how the internal air is made to strike parti-
cular internal organs. |

Having described the three members of the regulation of breath,
he, with a view to enunciate a fourth, says :—

LI.

The fourth is dependant on the recognition of the
outer and the inner spheres.

_ ©The outer sphere” (véhya-vishaya) of the breath extends far as
twelve (fingers) from the nose. The “inner sphere” (dbsyantara-
vishaya) is represented by the heart, the navel and the like.
That quiescence or stoppage of motion, (which ensues) on recog-
nising or taking into consideration these two is the “ fourth”
regulation of breath (prandydma). Its difference from the third
form, called kumbiaka, is this : The latter without taking any note
of the outer and the inner spheres suddenly assumes quiescence,
15

114 APHORISMS OF PATANJALTI.

like a lotus falling on a hot stone, while this is a stoppage
which results from a recognition of the two spheres. This, like
the preceding, should be known to be divisible according to place,
time and number.

[This is purely intellectual, and involves no change in the
order of the operation. It is the same operation, but performed
intelligently. ]

He now describes the fruit of the fourth kind.

LII.
Thereby is removed the covering of light.

“Thereby,” 2. ९., by that fourth form of regulation of breath, .
the “covering” (dvarana) of the form of afflictions which envelope
the “light” (pgrakds’a) which is the thinking principle abiding in
the quality of goodness, is destroyed. This is the meaning.

[The purport is that this fourth form of Pranay4ma is specially
useful in removing all those ideas of pain and suffering which
are ordinarily associated with the thinking principle. }

Another fruit.

LIII.

The mind’s fitness for steadiness.

“‘ Steadiness” (dhdrand) will be defined presently (B. पा, A. 1.)
The mind (mamas), divested of its defects through the instru-
mentality of these forms of regulation of breath, remains fixed to
whatever it is applied, and does not suffer from distractions.

(Here the word manas has been used as a synonym of chzéia,
thinking principle).

He gives the definition of abstraction.

LIV.

Abstraction is the assumption by the senses of the
original nature of the thinking principle, from want
of application to their respective objects.

CHAPTER SECOND. 115

That by which the senses are abstracted, or from a feeling of
opposition, withdrawn from their respective objects, is Abstrac-
tion (pratydhara). How that may be effected is thus explained.
Of vision and the other senses the respective objects are form and
the rest. «^ Application” (samprayoga) to them is advancing
towards them. The want of such advance is the forsaking of them
and abiding in their original nature. When that forsaking is
effected the senses become the imitators of the original nature of the
thinking principle. Since the senses follow the thinking principle
as do bees their king, they all become of its nature. Thus when
the thinking principle is subdued these become abstracted.

(The natural tendency of the senses is outwards, towards the
objects which are designed for their entertainment, and the
great object of the Yoga is to divert them from those objects,
in order to bring them to a focus in the thinking principle.
When this is effected they cease to act, and are restored to the
natural state of the thinking principle of which they are
emanations. That natural state, again, is quiescence, and con-
sequently the senses become quiescent, and this is their abstracted
state. ]

Having described abstraction, which is the imitation of the
nature of the thinking principle by the senses, he now describes
the fruit of the act.

LV.
Thence the complete subjugation of the senses.

The meaning is—that by the practice of abstraction the senses
come so completely under controul that do not proceed, according
to their natures, outwards to their respective objects even when
excited thereto.

[The chapter opened by enquiring, what the exercise of the
Yoga was, and having described in detail that exercise with all its
concomitants, it now closes by describing the fruit of that exer-
cise. The fruit is complete subjugation of the senses. |]

116 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

Thus then has been described the practical exercise of the
Yoga which forms the theme of the first chapter. The practical
Yoga is first defined (1), then follow its use (11),in the weakening
of the afflictions (111), ite origin from ignorance (1९), the definition
of ignorance (ए), do. of afflictions (vi to 1x), means of obviating
them (x and x1), works, their sources and fruit (आ to xIv),
afflictions, their character and why and how they are to be got
rid of (xv to उदरा), discriminative knowledge (इरा to अन्ता);
postures, &c., (xLv11 to ना), and the advantages thereof (L111 to
Lv). (Not literally translated, but only the substance of the
commentary is given here for reasons elsewhere assigned, p. 58.]

Now this Yoga, through restraints and obligations, assumes the
form of a seed, which sprouts through postures and regulation
of breath, flowers through abstraction, and bears fruit through
contemplation, retention and meditation, and these are explain-
ed in this chapter on exercise.

ADDENDUM.

The note on Aphorism xxxrrI on page 94 is calculated to mislead
unwary readers. The remark that purification and other obligations
are common to all persons, whether Yogis or otherwise, is quite
correct with reference to the text. The obligations are as imperative
on Yogis as they are on householders, and none should neglect them ;
but purification is here taken in its ordinary acceptation, and does not
refer to certain peculiar acts of washing or Saucka which some
Yogis, particularly the followers of the Hathayoga, recommend. They
hold that ordinary washings &c., are not enough. They have accord-
ingly devised complicated, and in some respects very repulsive, forms
of purification, which they regard as absolutely necessary as prepara-
tory steps towards the attainment of fixity of seats. These they de-
cribe under the collective name of Shkajkarma or “sixfold work,” as
they are reckoned under six different names. These names are—L.,
Dhauti; II, Vasti; III, Nett; IV, Laukiks ; V, Trdataka, and VI,
Kapdlabhdti.® These are variously subdivided by the Gheranda Sait-
hitd, the Niruttara Tantra, the A’diydmala the Brahmaydmla, the
Grahaydmala, the Rudraydémala, the Sivasaihitd, and other Tantras.
I shall follow the first in the following notes :

I. Dhauts means washing, and it is known under four different
names according to the parts of the body to which it is applied.
These are, lst, Antardhauti or washing of the intestines; 2nd,
Dantadhauts or washing of the teeth; 3rd, Hriddhauti or wash-
ing of the stomach ; and 4th, Mulasodhana or washing of the rectum.t

The first is effected in four different ways, viz., (a) by contrac-
ting the mouth in the form of a crow’s bill, and drawing in a full
draft of air into the intestines, where it is retained for a time and

then thrown out.* As wind is the means of washing in this case it
is called Vatasdra. (6) By drinking a large quantity of water up to
the throat, and then forcing it down so as to expel it by the lower
orifice.f This is called Vérisdra. 1 know not how this can be effec-
ted, but to the occultist everything is possible. (c) By stopping the
breath and then striking the navel a hundred times against the ver-
tibral column.f This is called Agnisdra. (द) By taking in air through
the mouth contracted into the form of a crow’s bill, retaining it in the
intestines for an hour and a half, and then expelling it through the
lower orifice.§ (Vahiskarana.)

2nd. The Dental washing includes the purification of the teeth,
the tongue, the two ears, and the foramen on the crown of the head.||
For the teeth a dentrifice of catechu or clean earth is recommended
as appropriate.¢ For the tongue scraping with the index, the
middle and the ring fingers is held sufficient.** For the ears, rubbing
the orifices with the index and the ring fingers,¢f and for the foramen

8rd. The purification of the stomach is effected in three ways: Ist,
by passing the tender leaf-shoot of a plaintain, or a turmeric plant,
or a cane, through the mouth into the stomach, and, after shaking it
drawing it out (Dandadhauti); 2nd, by drinking a large quantity of
water and then vomitting it out (Vamandhauti) ; 3rd, by swallow-
ing a strip of cloth three inches wide and fifteen cubits long and then
drawing it out (Vasadhauti).+

4th. The purification of the rectum (४7०50 द कद) is effected by
washing the part with water aided by a finger or the stalk of a
turmeric 19०४.

II. The purification of the fundament (Vdstisodhana) is effected
by repeatedly contracting the fundament while seated firmly in
water up to the navel ( julavasti) or on dry land (sthalavasti).§

III. Neti is the technical name of thread, a span length of which
is passed through the nostrils and drawn out from the mouth with ४
view to purify the nostrils. ||

IV. Laukikt Yoga is the practice of shaking or swinging the

intestines repeatedly from one side to the other.*

V. For the purification of the eyes, the recommendation is that
the eyes should be fixed on one point, the tip of the nose for instance,
without permitting any twinkling, until tears flow in abundance. This
is called Trdtaka.t

VI. Under the last head of Kapdlabhdti, three practices are
recommended: Ist, drawing the air through the left nostril and ex-
pelling it by the right, and then reversing the operation, and per-
forming it alternately several times, (Vdtakrama) ; 2nd, drawing in
water by the nostrils and throwing it out by the mouth, (Vywé-
krama) ; 8rd, by sucking up water by the mouth and throwing it out
by the nostrils, (S’stkrama).t

The Tantras describe several other modes of purification, and suggest
many variations in the rules above quoted ; but it is not worth while to
quote them, particularly as first class Yogis denounce all such puri-
fications as quite unnecessary, if not actually futile.

CHAPTER THIRD. 121

CHAPTER THIRD.

May Bhitanatha, (the lord of elements,) by the thought of
whose lotus feet, the occult powers of Animé and the rest are
attained by thinkers, be to our prosperity !

With a view to describe the three accessories of the Yoga,
Dharana, &c., already referred to, (C. II A. xxx) and to explain
the external, the internal, and other Siddhis, Patanjali begins this
chapter, adverting first to the explanation of the term Safiyama.

[The occult powers (vibhutis) are the following: 1, animd,
^ molicularity,” extreme minuteness, or parvitude, or invisibility ;
2, Laghima, “ extreme lightness,” levity, tenuity, or incorpore-
ality; 8, Prdptz, “accessibility,” or touching anything at will, as
touching the moon with the tip of one’s finger; 4, Prdkamya,
“‘ wilfulness,” or irresistibility of will, fulfilment of every wish ;
5, Garimd, “excessive pondrosity,” magnitude, or illimitable
bulk ; 6, /’sitd ^ sovereignty,”’ or supreme dominion over animate
and inanimate nature; 7, Vasitd, “subjugation,” the power of
changing the course of nature ; 8, Kdmdavasdyita, “ self-controul,”
or the power of suppressing all carnal longings. These are also
indicated by the term riddhi, and also by s¢ddhz or perfections,
Inasmuch, however, as s¢ddhi is applied to other profections it is
sometimes qualified by the term maha. The powers are algo
indicated by the terms 64८7 and azévarya. }

Thereof, he describes the nature of steadfastness.

I,

Steadfastness is the confinement of the thinking
principle to one place.
“To one place” (dese), $, ९,, 10 the navel-wheel, the tip of
the nose, or the like. ^^ Confinement” (4andha) of the thinking
16

122 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

principle is making the thinking principle steady (on one object)
by excluding (the thought of) all other objects. This (confinement
to one place) is called Diarana or the steadfastness of the thinking
principle.

The meaning is this:—-The Yogi, who has purified his internal
organ by benevolence and other acts of refining the thinking
principle, who has accomplished the restraints and the obligations,
who has acquired mastery over his postures, who has subdued the
vital airs, who has abstracted himself from the field of the senses,
who has conquered the pairs (cf. C. II A. शशा), should, in
a quiet place, and in an erect posture, by fixing it to one object,
such as the tip of the nose, produce steadfastness of the thinking
principle for the practice of discriminate meditation.

(The preliminary obligations and restraints having been accom-
plished, and the habit of assuming the various kinds of seats
having been acquired, the Yogi should engage himself in train-
ing his thinking principle so as to be able to keep it unswervingly
steady to any object to which he may wish to direct it ; and this
unswerving fixity is called Dhdrané, or steadfastness. This stead-
fastness cannot be acquired without asubstratum. There must be
some object to which the thinking principle can be applied,
whether it be the tip of the nose, or a plexus of nerves in the
belly, or the crown of the head, or the ether, or the sky, for with-
out it, in the preliminary stage, the thinking principle would be
wandering. And inasmuch as there must be a substratum, the
steadfastness of thinking produced by it comes under the head
of discriminate meditation (samprajndata-samadhi). (C. I A. xvit.)
Practically it is a state of steady, immovable abstraction, buy
the word abstraction would be an indirect and not a direct de-
finition of 10047918, inasmuch as abstraction gives prominence
to the act of withdrawing or separating, leaving the result of the
act in the background, whereas Dhéran4 gives prominence to
the fixation of the thinking principle to one point, leaving the
separation or withdrawing from other things to be tacitly
implied.

CHAPTER THIRD, 128

The P. Bhashya defines ‘“ Dh&rané to be the fixation of the
function of the thinking principle on the navel-wheel, or on the
lotus of the heart, or on the light in the head, or on the tip of
the nose, or on the point of the tongue, or on such other place, or
on some external object.”” (Nabhichakre hridaya-pundartke mur-
dhnz jyotishi nasikdgre jthvagra-ityddishu des'eshu vahye vd
vishaye chittasya vyittimatrena bandha iti bandho dhdrand.)
The “ external object” of the commentator is explained by Vijnéna
Bhikshu to mean the image of a divinity. ]

Having defined steadfastness, with a view to define contempla-
tion he says :.

II.

Contemplation is unison there of the understand-
ing.

‘“‘There,’’ in that place where the thinking principle is confined.
“ Of the understanding” (pratyayasya) of the knowledge. What-
ever unison (or harmonious blending) is obtained through the
instrumentality of avoiding untoward modifications, and what
knowledge constantly arises through dependance on that on which
steadfastness is reposed, is called “ contemplation” (dhydéna).

[The word diydna is usually translated into meditation, for
it implies that profound and abstract consideration which brings
its object fully and undisturbedly before the mind. Inasmuch,
however, as there is deliberation and consideration in this act,
contemplation appears to me to be a more appropriate equiva-
lent, the highest state of contemplation, which 18 Samadhi, being
indicated by the term meditation.

The P. Bhashya defines Dhyana to be “an even current of
thought undisturbed by other thoughts.” (Sadris’a pravaka-
pratyaydntarenapardmrishto dhyanam.) ]

He now describes meditation, the last or highest member of
the Yoga.

124 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

ITI.

When that (contemplation), existing as if without
its own identity, enlightens solely one object, it is
meditation.

“When that,” 2. ९. contemplation as defined above (A. 11).
When “solely one object” is enlightened, z. ¢., when the object
produced by application to the form of an object, negating all
other forms of consideration, and the thought appears as if devoid
of its own identity, it is called ‘ meditation” (samadhi). That
which brings the mind together thoroughly, (samyag-ddhiyate),
४. e., brings it to one centre by avoiding all disturbing causes, is
Sam4dhi.

(The P. Bhdshya defines Samadhi to be “that in which
contemplation so realizes the form of the object contem-
plated as to make its own identity, as it were, void from
the prevalence of the nature of the contemplated object.
(Dhydnameva dhyeyakdra-nirbhasam pratyayatmakena svaripena
sunyamiva yada bhavati dhyeya-svabhdvaves'dt tada samdadhiri-
tyuchyate). As stated in the foregoing note, 82008411 is only a
more advanced state of contemplation than 011 ६०४, In the
latter the ideas of other objects besides the one contemplated
are subdued and kept down, but not entirely suppressed ; but
in the former it isso complete that not only exteraneous ideas
are suppressed, but even the distinction between the thinking
and the thought are lost, so that the former, as it were,
merges into the latter, and nothing but thought remains. Such
being the case, the body ceases to be influenced by external stimuli,
and a state of catalepsy or trance is produced. Hence it is that
Samadhi is not unfrequently translated into trance or catalepsy.
Catalepsy, however, takes note of only the cessation of the
organic functions, leaving unnoticed the state of the thinking
principle, whereas Samadhi brings the intensity of the think-
ing to the fore, without caring for the organic functions, and the
English equivalent used should therefore convey thisidea. Medi-

CHAPTER THIRD. 125

tation it is true doesnot give the measure of the intensity, but
since that intensity varies greatly under different circumstances,
meditation is by itself enough for ordinary use. |]

In order to supply for use in his work a technical term for
the three constituents above described, he says:

IV.

The three together constitute Sayama.

In this Sastra the application of the three operations of
contemplation, (diydua) steadfastness (dhdrand), and meditation
(Samadhi), to one object is indicated by the use of the term
Safyama.

[The word Safiyama is formed of the intensitive particle sam
prefixed to yama “ restraint,” and means vow, binding or confine-
ment, and in this work indicates the absolute restriction of one’s
self to the practice of the three means of accomplishing the Yoga.
In connexion with the ceremonial of the Smriti, it is used to
indicate the day preceding that of the rite itself, because on that
day the performer has to place himself under certain restrictions
about food, drink, and occupation, the nature of which varies
according to the character of the rites. The word is defined with
2 view to prepare it for subsequent use as a technical term for the
three most important acts of Yoga. ]

standing.

ing similar (2. ९., freely blending with each other so as to be the
same) by practice. “ Understanding” (prajnd), i. e., the nature of

126 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

(The purport 18 obvious. When a person is proficient in per-
forming the threefold acts of Safiyama, he attains the light of
understanding, or the power of knowing thoroughly the nature
of the object to which he directs his attention. ]

Its application.

VI.

It is to be applied according to its stages.

According to “ its,” 2, e., of the Saiyama, “Stages” (54472),
it should be applied to the varying conditions of grossness and
subtileness of the substratum of the function of the thinking
principle. The Safyama should be practised in a higher stage
after subduing or attaining proficiency, or knowing thoroughly,
the lower stages of the thinking principle, for the fruition is not
effected by practicing the Safyama in the highest stage without
first bringing into controul the lower ones.

[The subject matter of this aphorism is a mere detail: it is the
rule that Safyama should not be attempted for the higher
stages of perfection until after it has been practised in the lower
stages, 3.¢., it 18 to be practised step by step according to the
different stages into which the career of the Yogi is divided.
See C. II A. उर्णा. |

A doubt having arisen why in the chapter on the appliances
(C. II) he should have described only five after naming the
eight members of the Yoga, and omitted three, the author says:

VII.
The three are more intimate than the former.
“Than the former,” z. ९.) of restrictions and other members of
the Yoga, which are the appliances of meditation in a secondary
degree. (C. II A. xx1x.) The three members, steadfastness, &c.,
‘ are intimate” (antarafiga, lit. akin,) to descriminate meditation,
since they establish the true character of meditation.

CHAPTER THIRD. 127

[In C. II A. xxrx. the accessories of the Yoga have been
described to be restraint, obligations, postures, regulation of
breath, devotion, steadfastness, contemplation, and meditation.
Of these tke first five are subsidiary or ancillary to, and the last
three integral parts, lit. members of the body of, the Yoga, and this
idea is developed in the aphorism under notice by the statement
that the former are strangers and the latter intimates. The first
five only prepare a person for the performance of the Yoga, but
the last three constitute the Yoga, for without them there can be
no discriminate Yoga having a specific object of thought. ]

To point out that it is nevertheless a stranger compared to
another, he says ;

VIII.
It is still a stranger to the seedless.

“To the seedless” (nirvijasya), 4. ९.) to the meditation which
depends on nothing, or carries on pondering with reference to
vacuity. To it the threefold members of the Yoga are strangers,
(vahiraftga,) because they are only secondarily subservient.

[Having in the next preceding aphorisms described the last
three of the eight members of the Yoga, to be essential to the
Yoga, the author makes a distinction, by saying that though
they are essential in the case of discriminate meditation, or that
in which there is a specific object of thought, they are not so when
the Yogi, rising above all specific objects, makes vacuity (3117142)
the object of his pondering. This form of meditation is called
“seedless” (cf. C. I, A. Lx1), and it needs no aid and can derive no
help from steadfastness, contemplation and objective meditation. |

Having now clearly explained the subject of Safijama, wishing
to disclose the nature of perfection of the different members of
Yoga, he describes successively the three modifications.

IX.

The suppressive modification is the moment of
conjunction of the thinking principle with suppres-

128 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

sion on the overthrow and success of the twofold
residua of waking and suppression.

“ Waking” (vyutihkana) includes the three conditions of agita-
tion, bewilderment, and voluptuousness. ‘‘ Suppression” (१270442)
is that modification of the thinking principle in which the quality
of goodness becomes a part of it, or retires to 1t. When succes-
sively the “ overthrow” (८४०९६८०८) and success “ prevalence” (pra-
durbhava) of the residua of the two, ४. e., of the waking and the
suppressive conditions, are produced, then at the moment of
५ suppression,” the conjunction (azvaya) which takes place from
the thinking principle having then both functions is called ‘ sup-
pressive modification” (nirodhaparindma). = ^ Overthrow” 15 the
condition of incapacity to perform work, there being a contempt
for it. ^^ Prevalence” is the condition of manifestation in the present
condition. The meaning is this:—When the residua cognate to
waking are pacified, and the residua of suppression are prevailing
and the thinking principle appears connected with both from its
being the substratum of quality, then that state is indicated by
the word suppressive modification (zirodhaparinama).

Although there is no stillness of the thinking principle when
affected by the functions of the qualities, nevertheless this
modification is called ८८५ or motionless.

[Having explained the exact position of the threefold exercise
of Safiyama, the author now proceeds to describe what follows
that exercise, and in doing so first defines three terms, and the first
of them is suppressive modification (nirodhaparindma). This is
defined to be the time when all the residua of the waking state
being overthrown, the thinking principle begins to be worked
by the residua of the suppressive state; it is the moment of
transition from the one condition to the other that the term
indicates. The P. Bhashya thus defines the term: “the residua
of the waking state are the attributes of the thinking principle,
but they are not intelligent. The residua of suppression, pro-
duced by the intelligence of the suppressive state, are also the

CHAPTER THIRD. 129

attributes of the thinking principle. On the overthrow and the
success of the two, the residua of the waking state are put down,
those of the suppressive state rise up, and there is then a correla-
tion of the thinking principle, and the changes, thus constantly
occurring in a thinking principle is suppressive modification.”
(Vyutthdna-saiskdraschitladharma na te pratyayatmaka iti,
pratyaya-nirodhena niruddha nirodhasafiskard api chittadhar-
mah, tayorabhibhava-pradurbhavau vyutthana-sanskard hiyante
nirodha-sanskara adhiyante, ntrodhakshanam chittamanveti tad
ehasya chittasya pratikshanamidam saiiskaranyathatvam nirodha-
parinamah.)

In explaining the text, Bhoja uses a term which, as playing
an important part in subsequent explanations, requires a few
words of comment. The word is vartamanddhvan, a compound
of vartaman “ present” and adhvan “a road,” but here “ time”
(adhvas'abda kdlavachanah,) which I have rendered into ^ present
condition.” The theory is that every image, shape, or idea
exists from eternity in a latent form; circumstances make it
manifest, and when those circumstances are overcome it reverts
to its former condition. The first 18 andgatddhvan, or the un-
manifest or antecedent condition ; the second or what we see is
the varlamanddhvan, or the present condition; and the third 18
atitddhvan, or the postcedent condition, which is reversion to the
first condition. The image existed in the marble in a latent
condition ; the sculptor brings it to its present condition, and
when it is broken it passes on to its postcedent condition. This
theory is the same which prevailed in Greece in ancient times.
Thus, says Sir William Hamilton: “ Plato agreed with the rest of
the ancient philosophers in this—that all things consist of matter
and form; and that the matter of which all things were made,
existed from eternity, without form; but he likewise believed
that there are eternal forms of all possible things which exist,
without matter; and to those eternal and immaterial forms he
gave the name of ideas. In the Platonic sense, then, sdeas were
the patterns according to which the Deity fashioned the

17

phenomenal or ectypal world.” So Tiberghien, (Hssaz des Con-
noissance humane, p. 207,) “ Seneca considered ideas, according
to Plato, as the eternal exemplars of things, Cicero as their
form, Diogenes Laertius as their cause and princtple, Aristotle as
substances.”

The word saiskara, which, for the sake of uniformity, I have
aendered into residua, would have been more pointed here if
translated into idea.]

The fruit thereof.

ॐ,

Its tranquil flow from residual habit.

“ Its,” of the thinking principle, “ tranquil flow” (pras’dnta-
vakitd) is produced by the residua of the suppression aforesaid.
The meaning is, from voluptuousness being removed the thinking
principle flows in its own modification.

{The advantage derived from the suppressive modification is
that, when it is attained, the thinking principle becomes tranquil,
and abides in its own nature, that is, it is no longer subject to
agitation from the prevalence of the adverse qualities of foul-
ness and bewilderment. |

Having described suppressive modification, he now defines
meditative modification.
XI.

The destruction of multifunctionality and enliven-
ment of concentration of the thinking principle is
meditative modification.

“ Multifunctionality” (sarvarthata) is the quality of voluptu-
ousness of the thinking principle, which results from its
accepting many objects from its versatility. When one object is
depended upon there is a similar modification, and it 18 ^ concen-
tration,” and that too is a quality of the thinking principle. The
“ destruction” and “enlivenment” (tshaya and udaya) of the
two are successive, £. ¢., the destruction or extreme overthrow of
the quality of multifunctionality and the enlivenment or full mani-

CHAPTER THIRD. 181

festation of the quality of concentration are successive. The
condition in which there is a junction of the two in the thinking
principle, when it has the quality of goodness in excess, is called
५ meditative modification” (samddhi-parinama). This is distinct
from the former, (४, e., suppressive meditation). In the former
there are the overthrow and the prevalence of the two residua, 2, ९.)
the contempt for the nature of the former waking residua and the
prevalence in an unsubdued state of the latter or the residua of sup-
pression. In this, however, there is destruction and full enliven-
ment. Destruction is entrance into the condition beyond that of
reproduction, of the voluptuousness of multifunctionality, from
extreme hatred. Enlivenment of the quality of concentration is
its manifestation in the present condition.

[Suppressive modification as defined in A. Ix, is confined to
the point of time when the waking state passes on to the
suppressive state; but in the meditative modification, there is a
farther advance. The waking state has then been entirely over-
come, and the meditative state is in full prevalence. The one is the
commencement, and the other the consummation, of the condition
of meditation. The P. Bhdshya explains this by saying “ multi-
functionality is an attribute of the thinking principle, so is
concentration ; the meaning is there is destruction or disappear-
ance of multifunctionality and the enlivenment or manifestation of
concentration.” (Sarvdrthaté chittadharmah ekdgratd chittadhar-
mah, sarvdratdyah kshayastirobhdva ityarthah, ekagrataya udaya
dvirbhava ityarthah.) Briefly this is a higher state of con-
centration. |

The third or the concentrative modification.

XII.
The concentrative modification of the thinking
principle is that in which both the tranquil and the
enlivened conditions are equally recognized.

132 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

Unity of idea is a special function of the abstracted thinking
principle. “Tranquil” (८८2) is that which has entered the
postcedent condition. = ^ Enlivened” (udi¢a) is manifestation in
the present condition. From the thinking principle being in a
collected state, the two are equal, and from their object being
one, are similar cognitions (pratyayas). When the collected
thinking principle abides correlated with both it is called concen-
trative modification.

[In the suppressive modification the worldly state is just
passing away, and the meditative state is just commencing, and
the thinking principle is becoming tranquil; in the meditative
state the first stage is passed, and concentration is in prevalence
or fully enlivened; and when the tranquil and the enlivened
conditions are in full play, the condition is called the concentra-
tive modification, The P. Bhashya explains this by saying,
“ of the controlled thinking principle, the first cognition is tran-
quillity, and the next after it is a similar one that of enliven-
‘ment, and the thinking principle in meditation 1s correlated to
both, in the same way” (samahita-chittasya purva-pratyayah
Sénta uttarastat-sadriga udilah samadhi-chittamubhayo-ranu-
gatam punastathaiva). As in the last case so here, we have in
this an advance over the last preceding condition. |

Having described the forms of the modification of the think-
ing principle, he assigns them to other subjects.

XIII.

By this the modifications of property, time, and
relation in elements and organs have been described.

^ By this,” 2. ¢., by the threefold exposition of the modifica-
tions of the thinking principle (A. 1x, श, शा.) ^^ In elements,”
(dhuteshu,) both the gross and the subtile. ‘In the organs”
existing severally as Intellect, organs of function, and internal
organ. It 18 to be understood that the three modifications of

property, time, and relation have been described (by the above
aphorisms).

CHAPTER THIRD. 183

When, on the cessation of a former property, the subject
undergoes the modification of another property, even as the
subject clay, forsaking the form of an undefined mass, assumes
another property, that of a jar, it is called the modification
of property (Dharmaparinima). The ^ modification of time”
(Lakshana-parindma) (is thus indicated) —when that jar, giving
up its antecedent condition, assumes its present condition, or
forsaking it, takes up its postcedent condition. The modification
of relation (Avasthdparindma) is the correlation of the jars, in
the first and the second conditions, for the train of the functions
of qualities is always moving, and does not remain unchanging
for even a moment.

[This aphorism applies the theory of eternity of ideas
enunciated in the three preceding aphorisms to things in general.
The object is to show that even as in ideas, latency, manifestation,
and disappearance follow successively, so in the thinking principle
ideas appear and disappear under particular circumstances without
radically changing its original nature. Change in matter is
not absolute, nor radical conversion of one thing into another,
but a modification of property, or of time, or of relation. A
mass of clay converted into a jar is a change of property, and
not of the radical elements of clay. This change is next altered
by time, as the breaking of a jar into potsherds ; and there is a
further change going on in its condition, and the new Jar of
yesterday is not the same with the jar we see to day, for there
has been some change in it since yesterday, for change is constant
and cannot be retarded fora moment. The first change is called
Dharmaparinama, the modification of property. The second is
Lakshanaparinama, the modification of time. The word /akshkana
ordinarily means a sign or character, but it has been explained
by commentators to mean time (ddlabheda). The third is
Avasthéparinama or change of relation.]

Now, a doubt arising as to what the property is, he defines the
nature of the propertied, ४, ¢., the subject.

184 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

XIV.

The subject is the correlative of the qualities of
tranquillity, enlivening, and latency.

“The tranquil” (sdztdéh) (qualities) are those which, having
performed their respective functions, have entered the postcedent
condition. “The enlivened” (udztdh) qualities are those which,
forsaking the antecedent condition, perform their functions in the
present condition. = ^ The latent,” (avyapadesyah) qualities are
those which, abiding potentially, do not produce action. Thus
everything is comprised in everything, and so on. By the word
property (dharma) is implied that simple potentiality which
abides distinctly correlated as effect and cause. Whatever proceeds
and admits of correlation with that threefold quality is called
the “ propertied” (dkarmt) which is the subject of tranquillity,
enlivening and latency. Thus gold, giving up the quality of the
form of a necklace and assuming that of the form of a svasti-
ka cross, still appears asa golden form, 2. e., when in these slightly
different characters the subject appears as a common property, it
is subject, but when it abides as a distinct mode it is a property,
and therefore it is described as the correlative of qualities.

[Properties do not always exist in the same form in the
same way. Sometimes they are tranquil, at others active, or
enlivened, and sometimes latent, and these properties are called
dharma, and the thing with which they are correlated is the
“ propertied,” or the substratum of qualities, or Diarmi—that
which has the Dharma. A thing cannot be called a subject until
it is correlated to a property, and a property ceases to beso when
it qualifies nothing. On the other hand, by change of relation a
subject may become a property and a property a subject—a
subjective law or its objective outcome. }

To remove the doubt as to how a single (propertied) subject
undergoes many modifications he says:

CHAPTER THIRD. 135

^ XV.

The diversity of succession is the cause of the ver-
satility of modifications.

Krama or “succession” of property as defined above and
anyatva, “diversity,” which is every moment visible, make
the compound Kramdnyatra, (which has been rendered into
“diversity of succession” in the text). And that is the “ cause”
(ketu), mark, or indicator of the (azyatva) or multiplicity or
diversity of the modifications aforesaid. The meaning is this:
Constant motion or succession, as from powdered earth into
clay mass, thence flattened plates, thence a jar, shows the manifest
form of the versatility of modifications. And whatever the
motion in the subject of the modifications of time and condition,
the same should be understood to be the argument in support of
the versatility of modification. For certain all conditions appear
constantly changing by constant motion, and the versatility of
modification from constant mutability is thereby established. 0
all mutable objects, like the thinking principle and the rest,
some qualities are grasped by perception, such as pleasures,
conditions and the like, and some are known by inference,
such as fate, residuum, power, &c., and the propertied subject
not being distinct from property is to be explained in the
same way.

[Both the text and the commentary explain the subject in a
very roundabout way. The purport is that the diversity of
phenomena in the versatile world, is due to constant motion,
or uninterrupted succession of changes. The three qualities are
never at rest, they are flowing in a constant round of changes,
and every change brings on some change of property, for were
not properties to change, there would be no perceivable change.
And the thinking principle, associated directly with the functions
of the three qualities, must accordingly with these changes, be
the agent of a multiplicity of functions, and that is its multi-
functionality. The changes under notice are either perceivable

186 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

by the senses, organs, or felt by the mind, but in both cases
they apply to the thinking principle. ]

Now, with a view to describe Siddhi (perfection) by showing
the object of the Safyama already described, he says:

XVI.

The knowledge of the past and the future is ac-
quired by Saiyama over the threefold modification.

The threefold modification resulting from distinctions of
attribute, time and relation has been already described. By
the Safiyama, ४. ९.) by practising the controuls aforesaid in
connexion with this object, Yogis acquire a full knowledge of
the past and the future. The purport is this: When a Yogi,
knowing that in any given subject this is the attribute, this
is the time, this 1s the relation, and it having performed its
work in the present condition has entered the postcedent con-
dition, performs the Safiyama by surmounting the obstructions, he
knows everything, all that is passed, or that is to happen, because
from the manifestation of the pure quality of goodness in the
thinking principle, he then constantly rejects all obstacles caused
by ignorance to the power of perceiving the purport of all and
everything. When by these means all obstacles have been set aside,
then, through concentration, the power of perceiving the property
of all and everything becomes manifest as in a stainless mirror.

[Having explained the rationale of the action of the thinking
principle on worldly objects, the author now proceeds to describe
the effect of Safyama on that action, and the occult powers
which may be derived by that exercise. The first occult power
or perfection noticed is the power of knowing the past and the
future. This is acquired by directing the Safiyama to the
threefold changes described in A. XIII, ६ ९.) by meditating
about them till the light of truth rises in the thinking principle
of the Yogi and makes everything manifest. ]

He deseribes another kind of perfection.

CHAPTER THIRD. 187

XVII.

A confused comprehension of word, meaning, and
knowledge (arises) from indiscriminate understanding.
By Safiyama with due discrimination, (is acquired
an understanding) of the cry of all creatures.

A “word” (ada) is a sound formed of letters joined in a fixed
order, perceptible by the organ of hearing, and always convey-
ing the same, single, distinct meaning ; or it is a mere explosive
sound having in it no fixed order, but still intelligible to cultivated
understanding. In either case it forms words and sentences,
for both are adapted to convey a fixed meaning. ^ Meaning”
(artha) implies kind, quality, action, &. ‘ Understanding”
(pratyaya) is knowledge, or the function of the intellect in which
it assumes the form of the object (implied). By accepting in our
intellect these naturally distinct word, meaning and understand-
ing as one, there is confusion. Thus, in saying “ bring a cow,”
the meaning is a cow (go), belonging specifically to the species
cow, and having dewlap, &c. ; the word is the indicator; and the
understanding is the appreciation of it ; and all these are grasped
without any distinction. It is not used with a clear perception of
the word cow being the indicator, the meaning being what is
indicated by the word, and the understanding that which accepts
the two; and if one is asked what is the meaning? what is the
word ? what is the understanding produced by it ? he gives, only
one answer to all the questions by saying ‘a cow.’ Were he not
to conceive all these to be identical, how could he give the same
answer to all the questions? In this state he who makes the
८८ distinction,” (pravibhdga) that the essential nature of a word is
that it is the indicator (vdchaka), that of its meaning is the indi-
cated, and that of the understanding is making it manifest, and,
` making this distinction, places himself in Sahyama about it,
acquires the knowledge of the cry (ru¢a) or word of all creatures,
including feral and domestic quadrupeds, birds, reptiles, &c., ४, ९.

18

138 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

he knows with what particular motive a specific sound has been
made by a particular animal.

(Words are correlated with meanings, and meanings with
ideas. When sounds are reduced to speech there is a fixed
relation between their constituents, and this relation is fixed by
orthography and syntax; but when, in the cry of an animal
for instance, this relation of sounds does not appear to be so
fixed, it is not to be understood that there is no such relation, for
without it the sounds could not convey meaning and idea. And
the relation being admitted, it must follow that the cry of animals,
which are intended to convey ideas, must 028९6 80706 such relation,
and this relation can be learnt by directing the Safyama to it.
Ergo when the Safiyama is accomplished, the Yogi who performs
it is able to understand the meaning of the cries of animals. |

He describes another form of perfection.

XVIII.

A knowledge of former existence by making the
residua apparent.

Twofold are the residual impressions of the thinking principle.
Some are simply productive of memory; others are the causes of
the deserts, kind, life, and enjoyment, called virtue and vice. When
Safiyama is performed in regard to these residua, the performer,
enquiring into his former actions to the effect—thus has that
object been perceived by me, thus has that act been performed
by me, remembers all the past by the mere reflection, the residua
being by themselves excited without any separate stimulants,
and gradually visibly sees in the self-excited residua the kind,
&c., experienced in former existences,

[As explained in A. उरा, C. I., the residual impressions are of
a twofold character. One class of them produce memory, that is
when excited by a stimulus, the impressions which lie latent in the
mind become vivid, even as an action done in childhood and
afterwards entirely forgotten, is brought up in the mind many
years after by the sight of the locality or other circumstance

CHAPTER THIRD. 189

connected with it. Involuntary impressions received in dreams
and the like are also so produced. The second class of impres-
sions are those which bring on the desert of works; they are
perfectly involuntary, and are mostly residua of former exis-
tences. By applying Saftyama to these, they are excited and
become visible to the Yogi, and thereby he is able to know the
events of his former existences. |
Another form of perfection.

XIX.

With reference to cognition, a knowledge of
another’s thinking principle.

“ Cognition” (pratyaya) as indicated by some characteristic
sign, such as the complexion and the like, of others. When a Yogi
has performed the Sahyama with reference to it, he attains a
knowledge of another’s thinking principle. The meaning is, that
one’s own thinking principle, by entering the thinking principle
of another, comes to know all its attributes, whether it is excited
or otherwise.

{The principle explained above applies also to the thinking
principles of other persons. The Safiyama applied to them brings
them within the range of the understanding of the Yogi. The
theory being that the thinking principle which thinks upon a
thing assumes the form of that thing, it follows that the mind
of the Yogi performing the Safiyama becomes the mind thought
of, and thereby knows it.]

He now describes a peculiarity in the knowledge of other
thinking principles.

XX.

(But) not along with its object, that not being

the object (of the thinker).

But he is not able to know another’s thinking principle (in
the text represented by the pronoun it) “along with its object”
(sdlamana), 2. e., along with the object to which it is directed,

140 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

because none of the characteristics of the object is made the
subject (of the Safiyama). From the characteristic of the object not
being reflected upon the thinking principle alone of another is
known, but not that it is blue or yellow, because Sailyama cannot
be directed to that which has not been made the object of it, and
there can be no recognition where it is not made the object.
Hence another thinking principle along with its object is not
cognizable, the object not being taken into account. Now, the
qualities of the thinking principle will be included. When con-
templation is made as to what is the object, then from that
8802708 a knowledge of the whole subject is acquired.

[This aphorism qualifies the sense of the next preceding one.
It says that by thinking on the thinking principle of another
one can know it, but not its objects, unless those objects are
also included. When they are included the knowledge 18 per-
fect. ]

He describes another perfection.

शा.

From Safiyama with reference to the shape of the
body, the power of vision being benumbed, and the
correlation of light and sight being severed, there is
disappearance.

The ^ body” (4dya) is the human frame, and its shape (1140) is
that quality of it which is perceptible by the eye. The meaning
is—of such a body such is the shape. Through Sayama the power
of the eye to perceive things becoming ‘ benumbed’ (séambha),
9. e., obstructed through contemplation with reference to that
shape, and “the correlation of light and sight being severed,” ¢. e.,
the luminousness of the eye which proceeds from the quality of
goodness being “ severed,” or rendered incapable of performing its
function, there is a disappearance of a Yogi, 2. ९.) none can see him.
By this it should be known that the disappearance of sounds
&c. is also implied, z. ¢., by this exposition of the means of the

CHAPTER THIRD. 141

disappearance of shape, &c., the disappearance of sounds, &c., the
objects of the ears, &c., is described.

[Objects are perceivable by the light which the quality of
goodness throws on them, but if this light be withdrawn by the
quality of goodness being confined in the thinking principle, they
cease to be so. Accordingly, when a Yogi performs Sanyama
with reference to his body or any part of it he withdraws
therefrom the quality of goodness, and the body or the part
of it so acted upon ceases to have the quality of perceptibility,
and the Yogi becomes invisible, inaudible, &. When an object
has no power of visibility in it, it necessarily becomes invisible.
This is how the Yogi makes himself invisible. ]

He describes another form of perfection.

XXII.

Works are deliberate and non-deliberate, and by
Sayama about them a knowledge of the final end ;
or by portents.

Life is the consequence of former works. They are of two
kinds, “ deliberate” and “ non-deliberate.””’ Thereof the ^ deli-
berate” or anticipatory (sopakrama) 18 that in which there
is an anticipation of consequences in the attempt to produce
a result, as in the spreading of wet cloth in a hot place in
order that it may dry quickly. The reverse of the former is
the “non-deliberate” (nirupakrama), as the leaving the same
cloth in a lump in a cool place where it may dry after a long
time. Whoever performs Saiiyama with reference to these
two kinds of work, (enquiring) ‘whether my work will mature
quickly or slowly,’ in him, through firm contemplation, a know-
ledge of the final end is produced. “Final end” (apardnta)
is the separation of the body from the soul, z. e., death. A“ know-
ledge of it,” z. e., at such a time, at such a place my death shall
happen,’ he acquires with certainty.

142 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

“Or by portents” (arishtebhyvas). Portents are of three kinds,
spiritual (tdhyatmika), material, (ad4ibhautika) and supernatural
(adhidaivika). The spiritual is that (which is conveyed ina
spiritual way, as) when one with the ears closed does not hear the
sound of the vital air in the stomach, or such like (the said sound
being ordinarily audible). The material is the sudden sight of a
frightful human form, or the like. The supernatural is the
accidental sight of invisible things, such as paradise, &९. By them
one knows the time of death. Although knowledge may be
acquired through portents by other than Yogis, it is in their case
general and doubtful. In the case of Yogis, on the other hand,
the time and place being certain, the perception is as certain as
actual sight.

[The efficacy of this Siddhi depends upon the precision with
which the events of past existences are realised in the mind by
reviving their residua through the power of Safyama. When
their memory is perfect, one can easily calculate which of his
former acts will bring on death within a short time, and which
are destined to retard it. It will be seen that in the Yoga
system residua or deserts play the part of fate, and if the
nature of the residua be known, one knows his fate. ]

In order to explain the perfection acquired by the purifying
processes (Chap. I, A. xxx, p. 40) he says:

XXIII.

In friendliness, superhuman powers.

By performing Safyama in regard to friendliness, mercy,
complaisance, and indifference, super-human powers are acquired
with reference to them, z. ¢., in the performer friendliness, mercy,
and complaisance attain such great excellence as to enable him to
contract friendship with all (persons).

[The sense is obvious, and needs no comment. ]

He describes another kind of perfection.

CHAPTER THIRD. 143

XXIV.

In powers, the powers of the elephant and the like.

By performing Safyama with reference to the powers of the
elephant and the like, powers like those of the elephant, &c., become
manifest in the Yogi. The meaning is this: He who performs
Safiyama in regard to the power of the elephant, the force of the
wind, or the vigour of the lion, wishing it to be in him, becomes
possessed of those powers.

[As obvious as the purport of the last preceding aphorism. ]

Another perfection.

XXV.

From contemplation of the light of the extremely
luminous disposition, a knowledge (is acquired) of the
subtile, the intercepted and the remote.

_ The light of the extremely luminous disposition has already
been described. (C. I, A. xxxvi). The “light” is that which
expands the manifestation of the quality of goodness. From
“contemplation” (14452) of all things appertaining to it, ४, e.,
from thinking of the objects irradiated by it, a knowledge is
produced, in one’s own internal organ and the organs of sense
endowed with special power, of the “ subtile” (४150702) such as
atoms, &c., of the “ intercepted” (vyavahita), as mines under the
earth, and of the remote (viprakrishta), as the elixir of life existing
on the other side of the Meru mountain.

[The clear light of the quality of goodness is what is meant
by “the light of the extremely luminous disposition.”]
Another perfection of a similar description.

XXVI.
From Sajiyama in the sun, a knowledge of regions.

He who performs Sayama with reference to the manifest
sun, obtains a definite knowledge of whatever regions and towns
exist in the seven spheres, including the terrine, the aérial,
and the celestial. In the preceding aphorism the subject is the

144 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

manifestation of the quality of goodness, here it is material, that
is the distinction.

[The P. Bhashya gives a long account of the seven principal
regions and their subsidiaries, taken from the Pur&pas, but it is
not worth quoting. In Wilson’s Vishnu Purana the details are
given at leagth. |

Another perfection by means of reliance on material mani-
festation.

XXVII.

In the moon, a knowledge of the disposition of
the stars.

By performing Safyama with reference to the moon, a know -
ledge is derived of the disposition (४४ द), or the order of
arrangement, of the starry luminaries. As the stars lose their
light on the manifestation of the sun, Safyama with reference to
the sun cannot suffice to afford a knowledge of the stars, there~
fore a different means is (here) ordained.

[The reason given why the Safyama with reference to the
sun does not suffice to give an idea of the arrangement of the
stars and planets appears ludicrous. Bhoja cannot have seen a
star in day light. The P. Bhdshya does not refer to it.]

Another perfection.

XXVIII.

In the Polar star, a knowledge of their motion.

A knowledge is produced of the “ motion” (gati) of the par-
ticular time and position of each of the stars by performing
Safyama with reference to the Polar star (Ddruva), the chief,
the fixed star. This is a star, that is a planet, this is the period
within which it will reach a particular constellation,—all these are
known. What is said is that this is the fruit of knowing their
times.

[The ®. Bhdshkya adds that the Safiyama applied to the
firmanent above suffices the pupose. (U'rddha-vimaneshu krita-

CHAPTER THIRD. 145

sanyamastdnt viantydt). It is not obvious why Bhoja has
omitted this. ||

After having described perfections regarding externals, he now
attempts to describe internal perfections.

XXTX.

In the navel-wheel, a knowledge of the disposi-
tion of the body.

A knowledge is acquired by the Yogi who has performed
Safiyama with reference to the ^ wheel” (chakra) of sixteen radii
which exists in the middle of the body, and is called ‘“ navel”
(2642) , of the “disposition” \vy¢éha) obtaining in the body of
fluids, excrements, humours, tubes, &c. What is said is this—the
navel-wheel, situated in the middle of the body, is the root of all
the widespread tubes, therefore by knowing it, one fully under-
stands how they are disposed in the body.

[Down to the last aphorism the effect of Safyama applied ta
external objects formed the theme of comment; now the author
turns to objects situated within the body. The first is the navel-
wheel, which is said to have sixteen radii. How this idea got
into currency I cannot make out. Ancient Hindus must have seen
the human abdomen dissected, and having seen it, 1६ 1s impossible
toimagine, how they conjured up the idea of a wheel with sixteen
radii. There must be some recondite metaphor involved in this,
but I know not what it is.]

Another perfection.

XXX.

In the throat-well, the subdual of hunger and
thirst.

The well in the throat is ^^ throat-well” (Lanthakupa). It isa pit
or well-like place (and therefore called a well) behind and below the
tongue and palate. By the contact of the vital airs with it

(the sensations of) hunger and thirst are produced. The hunger
19

146 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

and thirst of the Yogi who has performed Safiyama with refer-
ence to that well, are subdued. The streams (of the vital airs)
being satisfied below the uvula, this kind of perfection is accom-
plished.

[The throat-well is the pharynx where the air from the mouth
and that from the cavity of the nostrils meet. |

Another perfection.

XXXI.

Firmness in the tortoise tube.

Firmness of the mind is acquired by performing Safyama with
reference to the tube, called the “tortoise” (h#rma), which is
situated below the throat-well. The meaning is—that on the mind
entering that spot there happens no vacillation, in other words,
such a firmness of the body is produced that no one can cause it
to shake.

[The tortoise tube is the lower part of the larynx including
the bronchi. ]

Another perfection.

XXXII.

In the coronal light, vision of perfected ones.

In the skull there isan aperture called Brahma-randhra. It
is called “light” (yyolvh) because it is the site of light. Even as
the spreading effulgence of a jewel in a closed room collects at the
keyhole, so the light of the quality of goodness in the heart spread-
ing collects at that aperture. And by the performance of Safyama
in it by Yogis, those perfected ones, or celestial beings, who dwell
in the space between the earth and the sky and are invisible to
ordinary people, become visible, ए, e., Yogis see them, and hold
converse with them. This 18 the meaning.

[The point at the crest of the frontal bone remains open in
childhood when the parietal bones are not sufficiently developed ;
at maturity this opening is closed ; but, its existence having once
been proved, it is believed to exist always, and is called Brahma-

CHAPTER THIRD. 147

randhra. Life is said to depart through this aperture in certain
cases, and spiritually it is reckoned to be the most important
part of the body. In the Tantras it is referred to with great
reverence.

This is the only aphorism in the Yoga system which may be
assumed as recognising the truth of the spiritual manifestations
of modern European spiritualists; the rationale, however, is
entirely different. ]

He now describes the means of becoming all-knowing.

XXXIIT.
Or from Pratibha, everything.

Pratibha is that knowledge which is independent of cause,
produced solely in the mind, uncontradictory, and suddenly
evolved. By performing Safiyama with reference to it this
Pratibha knowledge, called Tdraka or emancipator, which results
before the manifestation of thorough knowledge, arises. Even as
the light which becomes apparent before the rising sun, so this
Taraka, or knowledge of everything before the manifestation of
thorough knowledge, becomes apparent. When this is the case,
the Yogi can know everything without resource to any parti-
oular Safyama.

(The P. Bhdshya explains the word Pratibha by the phrase
Pratibham nama tdrakam, which may mean the Morning
Star, the one which is visible a little before sunrise, or that it
is an emancipator. Patanjali, perhaps, referred to the star, as the
light of that star prepares the way for the illumination of the
universe by the sun; but Bhoja, having set a limit to external
objects at the close of the 28th aphorism, is compelled to
take the Pratibha to be something different. According ४२ his
definition, it is a sort of instinct, or intuition, “ the knowledge
which is independant of cause, produced solely in the mind,
uncontradictory, and suddenly evolved.” He has, nevertheless,
been obliged to preserve the relation of the star to the sun by
referring to the illumination resulting from sunrise. The

148 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

morning star is not, like the Polar star, always the same, different
planets serving its place at different times, and this uncertainty
maust have told against the material meaning being accepted as
the right one. Whether the practising Yogi should think on the
morning star, or intuition is a question which I cannot decide,
but Bhoja has obviously the best of the argument.]

Another perfection.

XXXIV.

In the heart, a consciousness of the thinking prin-
ciple.

“Heart” (Arzdaya) is a particular part of the body. The
locale of the internal organ is within a small, inverted lotus
placed in that part of the body. By performing Sayama
with reference to it, a knowledge of the thinking principle of
one’s own and of another person is obtained, z.e., the Yogi
comes to know all the residua in bis own thinking principle, as
well as the passions, &c., in other thinking principles.

[The description of the heart is obviously rhetorical. As the
seat of the thinking principle it is described as the must appro-
priate spot to which attention should be directed to know it
thoroughly. ]

Another perfection.

XXXV,

Experience is an undefined conception of the qua-
lity of goodness and the soul, which are totally uncon-
nected. From Safiyama for its own object, and not
for another’s object, proceeds a knowledge of the soul.

“The quality of goodness” (sattva) is a particular modification
of nature (pradhdna) ; it is characterised by illumination and
joy. ‘Soul’ (purusha) is the experiencer in the form of a ruler.
From the distinction of the experiencer and the experience,—=

CHAPTER THIRD. 149

of the rational and the irrational—there is total unconnection
between the two, i. ¢., they are separate. ‘A conception” of
the two without any distinction, not knowing them distinctly, is
experience. Hence whatever consciousness of pleasure and pain
is felt by the quality of goodness assuming itself to be the master
is experience. Goodness having no object of its own, its work is
for “another’s object,” (pardrtha), 2. e., for the object of the soul.
That which is distinct from it is its “own object,” (svartha) ;
which is reliance on the true nature of the soul, or the connection
of the shadow of the soul with the quality of goodness (sattva)
devoid of egotism. By the performance of Safiyama in that
connection, a knowledge of the object of the soul is derived, ४. ८
the soul knows reliant perception to be in this way dependant
on the quality of goodness. Nor does there arise any difficulty
about the soul, the knower, becoming the object of knowledge,
for the objection will be met by the argument of knowability
(2. e., that which is the knower cannot be the knowable) ;
because the knower and the knowable are quite contrary.

[The soul is the experiencer of joys and sorrows; it experi-
ences them by its being reflected on the intellect, which is the
Immediate experiencer. The two are essentially different ; one is
sentient, the other inert; one the enjoyer, the other the enjoyed.
An association of the two is brought about by the former being
reflected on the latter, and then the former experiences what is
produced in the latter. The latter, however, being irradiated by
the former, acts the part of the agent or actor, and whatever it
thereby feels is called enjoyment. This feeling, however, is for
another’s purpose, 2, ¢., for the purpose of the soul, its own pur-
pose being the merging in that soul. In the one case it works
for another, and falsely imagines itself to be the actor, and
in the other it acts with a vew to attain its own end. When
Safiyama is performed with this discrimination and with the
object of knowing the soul, the knowledge is acquired. ]

He now describes the fruits of this Saiyama.

150 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

XXXVI.
Thence proceed intuition, audition, taction, vision,
gustation and olfaction.

“Thence,” from performing Saiyama in the said quality of
goodness, or practising it; even in the waking state these
faculties are produced. Thereof “ intuition” (Prdtzbha) is the
knowledge already described (A. xxx11r) on the manifestation
of which minute objects become visible.

८८ Audition” (S’rdvana) 15 the knowledge produced in the organ
of hearing. Therefrom the highest celestial sound, or that which
is produced in the heaven, becomes audible.

“ Taction” (Vedand) is the knowledge produced by the organ
of touch. That by which is known that a thing exists (४444८;
anayd) is Vedané; it is a Tantric term which has been used here.
Therefrom proceeds the knowledge of such celestial things as are
subjects of touch.

Vision” (Adarga) is that knowledge which is produced by
the organ of sight. Whereby is seen (dris'yati) or perceived
thoroughly what every form is, is ddarga. When it is in its full
development a knowledge of celestial forms is produced by it.

“ Gustation” (Asvdda) is the knowledge produced by the
organ of taste. That by which a thing is tasted (dsvddats
aneneti) 18 dsvdda, and on its full development a perception of
celestial taste is produced.

८८ Olfaction” (Vartd) is the sensation of smell. In Tantric
terminology the word vrités means the organ of smelling; that
in which resides (varttate) the objects of smell (is ९८८2) and that
which proceeds from that organ of smell 18 Vartd, ४. e., the
sensation of smell. When that becomes fully developed celestial
smells become perceptible.

[This aphorism explains the collateral advantages of perform-
ing Saiiyama with reference to the soul. These advantages are
superior or transcendental powers in the organs of sense. Nor

CHAPTER THIRD. 151

are those powers confined to the meditative state; when once
acquired, they are retained permanently, and even in his ordinary
worldly waking state the Yogi can exercise them, so that in his
ordinary faculties he becomes infinitely superior to common
mortals. |

Of these different fruits he now describes the respective
provinces.

XXXVIT.

These are obstacles in the meditative condition
(but) perfections in the waking state.

“These,” the different fruits described above. In the state of
meditation they are “obstacles,” (upasargas,) hindrances, dis-
turbers, because from joy, wonder, &c., resulting thereform,
meditation becomes relaxed. In the state of waking (vyu/hdna),
४. e., in the ordinary state of life, they are, however, perfections
(siddhayah), because then they yield desirable fruits.

[The perfections described are of the world worldly, required
for werldly purposes, but useless for higher meditation, 7. ९.)
for meditation having isolation for its aim. Nor are they
simply useless, but positively obstructive, for they interfere with
the even tenor of calm meditation. In the waking state they
may be gratifying, and, indeed, they are useful only in that state,
but apart from it they are not wanted. |

He describes another perfection.

XXXVIII.

From slackness of the cause of bondage and from
a knowledge of the process, the entrance of the
thinking principle into another body.

The consciousness which results of the experiencer and the ex-
perience, acting from the constant relation existing between the
soul and the intellect residing inside the body and from pervasion, 18
called corporeal bondage (s‘arirabundha). When through medita-

152 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

tion the cause of bondage, which is work in the twofold form of
virtue and vice, becomes slack, or attains attenuity,and when a Yogi
knows the process, £. e., the way in which the thinking principle
issues from the heart through the organs towards worldly objects,
knowing full well this is the tube called chittavaha through which
the thinking principle circulates, and it differs thus from the tubes
through which the vital airs and the rest circulate, and also knows
the passages in his own body and that of others, he can enter, by
the passage through which the thinking principle circulates, into
the body of another, whether it be dead or alive. The thinking
principle, after entering another body, follows the bent of the
senses even as honey-bees follow the queen bee, (/¢. king bee).
And the Yogi who has entered another body uses it as his own
body. Since work is the cause of circumscribing the fruition
of the pervading soul and the thinking principle, if that cir-
cumscription be weakened or destroyed by meditation, fruition
may result everywhere from the independence of the thinking
principle.

(The transfer of one’s own soul into another body plays a
prominent part in the legendary lore of India, and the idea
was not unknown at one time in Europe. How this transfer
is effected is explained in this aphorism. The bondage of the
soul to the body is due to works and their deserts, works
having been performed their deserts must be borne by the soul
in association with the body ; but when through meditation the
residua of works are obliterated and the bond is loosened, and
the Yogi knows the way in which the soul goes out and comes
into a body, he can, at will, make the soul travel by that
way and enter another body, whether dead or alive, and again,
at will, withdraw it from that body, and bring it back to its
own. And wherever the soul rests there it works upon the
organs, and enjoys their experiences, or in other words, the organs
follow the soul as do working bees their queen. ]

From subdual of १६18, ascension and detachment
from water, mud, thorns, &c.

The simultaneous waking, like the flaming up of burning chaff,
of the functions (of the body) is indicated by the phrase vital air,
(Jivana), and from differences of action, that vital air is indicated
severally by the terms Prana, Apana, &. Thereof one form of air is
called Prana,because it passes (pranayandt,) from the heart through
the mouth and the nostrils. That air which descends (apanayandt)
from the navel down to the great toe is called Apdna. Another
is called Samdna,because,surrounding the navel,it permeates every-
where (samantannayanat). Another is called Uddua, because it
ascends from the back of the neck to the head (uxnayazdt).
Another air pervades the whole body, and is called Vyaxa, because
it circulates over the whole body, (vydpya nayandt). From the
subdual of the Udana, through Safyama, the other airs being
suppressed and the tendency being upwards, the Yogi does not
suffer from “ water,” ६, ¢., in large rivers, &c., nor from large
collections of “ mud,” (kardama,) bogs, nor from sharp “ thorns”
(kan{aka), 8. e., from his lightness he rises, like a floss of cotton,
even when drowned in water or the like. ‘

[The body is kept alive by five vital airs, and of these that
which is called Uddna is characterised by its tendency to rise
upwards. Now, by making Safyama in reference to it the
tendency of the other airs are overcome, and the whole body
tends upwards, consequently there is no gravitation, and the
Yogi is neither drowned in water, nor submerged in a bog.
The attenuity of his body at the time is such that it cannot be
pierced by a thorn.]

XL.

From subdual of Samana, effulgence.

contro] through 8० ४६४, that unprotected fire ascends, and the
Yogi appears effulgent as if flaming in glory.‘

[The stomach is the seat of the fire which keeps up the heat of
the body and consumes food ; and this fire is surrounded and
kept in its place by the air called Samana. Such being the theory,
it follows that when by Saityama the air in question is overcome
or rendered inapt in its special function, the fire, from its na-
tural tendency upwards, should rise up and escape from the body
in lambent flames of glory. The Buddhists, who developed the
Yoga system to its utmost limit, declare that the crown of the
head, the space between the eyebrows, the mouth and the shoul-
ders are the places whence these flames usually issue. In the
Sanskrit Buddhist literature of Nepal these flames are frequent-
ly described as issuing from the person of S’f4kya Buddha,
whenever he immersed himself in a profound meditation, and in
ancient sculptures images of Buddha are often represented
with these flames occupying the place of halo, nimbus, aureola,
or glory of European art. A physical cause for these flames
may be found in the electric flames which have been noticed
by Reichenbach on the persons of highly electric tendency under
certain conditions. Of course it is an open question as to whether
Yogis had seen such electric flames and derived their descrip-
tions therefrom, or drawn them from their fanoy. |

From Safiyama with reference to the relation
between the organ of hearing and ether, a superper-
fect organ of hearing. ;

“Organ of hearing” (S’rofra) is that organ which perceives
sound, and is produced by egotism. “ Ether” (Akéga) is sky, the
result of the subtle rudiment of sound (S‘abdatanmédira). The
relation” (sambandha) between the two is that of the site and the
situated. The Yogi who has performed Saiyama with reference
to it attains a superperfect organ of hearing (Divyas‘rotra), and

CHAPTER THIRD. 155

becomes able to hear simultaneously subtile, intercepted, and
distant sounds.

(The ether is the product of the rudiment of sound; and the
organ of hearing is dependant on it for the performance of its
function; and if the relation between the two be brought under
control by performing Saftyama with reference to ether, the per-
former obtains the power of knowing it under all circumstances. ]

Another perfection.

XLIT.

From 8872108 with reference to the relation
between the body and ether, travelling in ether, from
acquisition of levity, like that of cotton.

The “body” (kdya),is the form made of the five elements.
By performing Saiyama with reference to the relation which exists
between the body and ether which yields space (for objects to
abide in) a levity, like that of cotton and the like, 18 effected, 8. ९.)
they become alike. Having effected this and attained the levity,
the Yogi, walking at will over water, or on a spider’s web, or on
the rays of the sun, at his choice travels on ether.

[The rationale of the operation in this case is very much the
same as in the last; the body is kept down by the ether, and if
the ether be under control, the body acquires the power of rising
over it. ]

The function independent of external functions is
the great incorporeal. Therefrom the destruction of
the covering of light.

That mental function which is out of the body, ४. ९., indepen-
dent of it, is named the “ great incorporeal” (Mahdvideha), because
it is exclusive of the stedfastness of the relation between the
body and egotism. “Therefrom,” from Saiiyama performed
with reference to it, the destruction of the covering of light is

effected, ४, ¢., the covering consisting of afflictions, works, &c.,
which obstruct the light of the thinking principle centered in
the quality of goodness alone, 18 removed. The meaning 18 this:
The external functions of the thinking principle which result
from the body and egotism are called factitious (4alpzta). When,
abandoning the feeling of body and egotism, there arises an in-
dependent (or self-reliant) mental function it is non-fictitious
(akalpita). By performing Saftyama with reference to it, all
taints in the thinking principle of the Yogi are removed.

[The covering produced by the qualities of foulness and dark-
ness prevent the true light of the quality of goodness from being
seen to perfection. If that covering be removed the vision is
perfect. When retiring under this covering, which is no other
than consciousness under the name of egotism, the mind entertains
factitious ideas, and produces factitious works, which are conse-
quently false. Divested of this covering it works differently, and
whatever it produces is real. Saftyama performed with reference
to the relation existing between the body and egotism removes
the covering, and thereby cleanses the thinking principle. ]

Having thus described the different forms of perfection, inclu-
ding anterior destruction of objects, posterior destruction of objects,
and the middle condition; having also explained the knowledge
of the externals, regions, &c., of the internals, the formation of
the body, of the powers of friendliness, &c., which effect particular
objects; having, further, described the conditions of internal
and external organs and such like expedients for meditation, as
also the conditions of the vital airs, Prana, &c., and other per-
fections for producing stedfastness in the thinking principle and
earnestness in meditation; he now, with a view to point out the
various means for the perfection of the seeded and the seedless
meditations for the visual inspection of the soul, says,

XLIV.
From Safiyama with reference to grossness, nature,
subtlety, concomitance and fruition, conquest of the
elements.

CHAPTER THIRD. 157

By performance of Saiiyama with reference to the five specific
conditions or qualities, such as grossness, &c., of the five
elements, earth, &c., the conquest of the elements is effected,
t. ¢., the elements become subservient. Thereof = ^ grossness”
(१८४५४८५) implies the specific forms in which the elements are
perceived. “ Nature” (svarupa) implies respectively their effects,
such as smell, viscidity, heat, impulsion, and impenetrability.
“Subtlety” (sékshma) implies successively the subtile conditions
which are the causes of the elements: these are the subtile
or rudimentary forms of matter (¢anmdtra). ^ Concomitancy”
(anvaya) includes the qualities of shape, disposition, and
existence, which are everywhere seen to co-exist. = ^ Frui-
tion” (arthavatva) 18 that power in the qualities which lead to
enjoyment and emancipation. Thus, by performing Safiyama
in regard severally to the five elements, nature and condi-
tions aforesaid, the Yogi conquers the elements. This is to
be done in this way,—first in the gross form, next in the subtile
form. To the performer of Safyama in this order, nature and
the elements become fulfillers of desires, even as cows follow
calves.

[The object of this aphorism is to explain the advantages
derivable from the performance of Safyama with reference to the
five elements. The elements brought under control subserve the
wants and wishes of the controller, even as cows subserve the
acquirements of calves by following them wherever they ramble. |

He now describes the fruit of this conquest over the elements.

XLV.

Therefrom proceed attenuation, &c., as also excel-
lence of body and the indestructibility of its qualities.

(1) “Attenuation” (animd) the attainment of the form of
atoms (molecularity).

(2) “Levity” (Jaghimd) attainment of lightness like that of a
floss of cotton.

(3) ^ Ponderosity” (garima) attainment of great weight.

158 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

(4) “TIllimitability,” (mahzmd) attainment of greatness, or the
power of touching the moon or the like with the tip of one’s finger.

(5) “Irresistible will” (prakamya) non-frustration of desires.

(6) “Supremacy” (5 2८०८) highest authority over the body
and the internal organ.

(7) “Subjection” (४८७०८४८४) prevailing everywhere, ४. ¢., the
elements being subservient to him do not disobey his behests.

(8) “Fulfilment of desires,” (tdmdvasdyitva) accomplishing
one’s desire everywhere, 2. ¢., in whatever object a desire is formed,
the Yogi becomes accomplished in that, or brings it to fruition by
attaining it.

These, attenuations, &c., as accessories to meditation, become
pevalent in Yogis on their conquering the elements. Thus by
attaining molecularity he can enter into (the substance of) a
diamond, The other cases should be explained in the same way.
These eight qualities, attenuation, &c., are called great perfec-
tions, (mahdsiddhis). =^“ Excellence of body” (4dyasampat), which
will be presently described, is also obtained. ^ The indestructibility
of its qualities,” means that the shape and the other qualities of
that body are not liable to destruction by any means. Neither
does fire burn its shape, nor wind dry it up, and so on.

(The exact nature of the advantages to be derived from
Saflyama with reference to the elements, not having been १९.
scribed in the next preceding aphorism, the author supplies the
omission in this aphorism. The advantages are the eight sid-
dhis or perfections an account of which has already been given
on page 121. They include many of the perfections described
in separate aphorisms, I fail to perceive any marked distinction
between the 5th and the 8th. The explanation of the 8th given
on p. 121 is Tantric. ]

He next explains what excellence of the body is—

XLVI.

“Colour, loveliness, might, and adamantine hardness
constitute the excellence of the body.

CHAPTER THIRD. 159

** Colour, loveliness, and might” are well-known. ^ Adaman-
tine hardness” (vajrasanhananaiva) means that hardness is
produced in one’s body like that of the diamond. These are the
excellences that become manifest in the body.

[While yearning for the severance of all bondage to worldly
objects, the Yogis cannot get over the natural love which ties
the mind to the body. The body is one’s own, and it is always
desirable to have it in a perfect state of beauty, and the means
are here provided to give it perfection. Of course it is introduced
here as the effect of a particular kind of Safyama, and not as a
thing to be desiderated. ]

Having thus explained the excellence of the body, he now
describes the conquest of the organs by one who has attained
his (proper) stage.

XLVII.

From the performance of Safiyama with reference
to perception, nature, egoism, concomitance, and frui-
tion, (proceeds) the conquest of the organs.

“Perception” (grahkana) is the function of the organs directed
to their (respective) objects. ‘‘ Nature” (svaruépa) is ordinary
manifesting power. ^^ Egoism” (८45707८6) is consciousness. “ Con-
comitance” (anvayatva) and “fruition” (arthavatva) as explained
above (A. xiv, p. 157). By performing Safyama with re-
ference to these five conditions of these organs the Yogi becomes
the conqueror of his organs.

[The five conditions of these organs include Ist, their nature,
t.¢., their power of making objects manifest; 2nd, their
function when in active operation ; 3rd, their consciousness of
being active; 4th, their concomitance or relation to each other or
mutual interdependance; and 5th, their fruition or the result
they produce. If all these conditions be brought under control
by performing Safiyama with reference to them, the organs
necessarily come under complete control.]

The fruit thereof.

160 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

भा.

Therefrom proceed quickness as of mind, uninstru-
mental perception, and the conquest of nature.

५५ Quickness as of mind” (manojavitva) is the attainment by
the body of extreme quickness of motion like that of the mind.
“‘Uninstrumental perception” (vikarana bhava) is the accomplish-
ment of the functions of the organs without the aid of the body.
“Conquest of nature” (pradhdnajaya) is bringing everything
under subjection. These perfections are attained by those who
have overcome their organs. In this science these are called
honey-drops (madhupratika). Even as every drop of honey has
its taste, so each of these is tasteful, and therefore they are honey-
drops.

(The advantage of having control over the organs as described
in the last preceding aphorism is, that the Yogi is then able to
perceive things without the aid of his material organs, and to do
s0 with the quickness of the mind, ४. e., instantaneously. He
also acquires mastery over nature in every way. The nature
here referred to is the Pradhdna of the Sankhya categories, the
highest of the twenty-five, next only to soul. |

Having described the conquest of the (external) organs, he
now points out the conquest of the internal organ.

XLIX.

Supremacy over all conditions and omniscience,
the moment the distinctive knowledge of the quality
of goodness and the soul (is attained).

The knowledge of the distinction between the quality of
goodness and the soul which results from performing Safiyama
with reference to the modification of pure goodness, is “ distine-
tive knowledge” (anyatakhydti). From the subsidence, through
the influence of the Safyama, of the conception about the
qualities being agents the Yogis, who are in that condition, attain
in their meditation supremacy over all conditions and omniscience,

CUAPTER THIRD. 161

* Supremacy over all conditions” (sarvabhavrdadhishthatritva) is
the attainment of power like a master over all modifications of
qualities. ‘‘Omniscience” (sarvajnatritvz) is correct knowledge
of those qualities as they exist in calm, (sd@fa,) enlivened,
(wdita,) and latent (avyapadisya) conditions. In this science
this perfection is called ^ sorrowless perfection” w2s’okasiddhz,
while those that have been described before are indicated by the
term vas’tkdra (controul).

[The object of this aphorism is to describe the effect of
getting controul over the mind or the internal organ. That
controul enables the Yogi te perceive the difference be-
tween the quality of goodness and the soul, and endows him
with absolute mastery over all conditions of existence and
thorough omniscience. The omniscience directly refers to the
conditions of the three qualities, but indirectly to all and
everything in the universe. Everything in the universe de-
pends upon the three qualities of goodness, foulness, and dark-
ness, and those qualities are either in a calm state, or ina
state of excitement, or latent; and if one comes to know their
conditions he necessarily knows all and everything that pro-
ceeds from them. This state of supreme knowledge is called
Vis'oka or sorrowless perfection, for when it is attained there
cannot possibly be any cause for pain or sorrow ; whereas in the
perfections previously described there is always some room for
sorrow, or longing of some kind or other. The latter ensure
controul over the things they refer to, and the controul is more
or less perfect according to circumstances, and they are fitly
called Vas tkdéra or ‘ controul.? They do not, however, secure
absolute immunity from pain, and this necessitates the marked
distinction in the designations. ]

Next he describes another stage.

L.
From indifference even to this (perfection) through

destruction of the seed of evils, (results) isolation.
21

162 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

When the Yozi becomes indifferent even to that sorrowless
perfection, then ignorance, the seed of the evils such as passion,
&c., being destroyed by the root, ‘‘ isolation,” (kasvalya,) absolute
cessation of pain, results, 3. ¢., on the termination of the influence
of the qualities the soul is restored, placed permanently, in its
own state.

[Nor is the sorrowless perfection the ultimatum. When the
Sayama is exercised freely it produces an indifference in the
mind in regard to it, and this indifference destroys ignorance, the
root of all evil, and leads to isolation, or the detachment of souk
from the bondage of worldly ties. ]

_ He now points out the means of remaining in this meditation.

LI.

Avoidance should be made of association with, and
encouragement of, celestial temptations, from appre-
hension of evils recurring.

There are four classes of Yogis; viz., lst, those practisers of
the Yoga on whom the light is just shedding ; 2nd, Ritambharas,
or those who possess the knowledge which holds to the truth ;
3rd, those who have conquered the elements and the organs; 4th,
those who have exceeded all objects of contemplation. Thereof, to
those who have attained the fourth meditation, when the seven
surrounding stages of knowledge have been attained, and the final
stage of ‘honeyed knowledge’ has been interviewed, the celestial
(sthdninah) gods become tempters, z. ¢., they offer presents of
handsome women, elixir vite, &c. With such temptations no
association should be made, nor any encouragement be given to
them. From association there is a fall into the enjoyment of
worldly pleasures. With regard to them therefore both associa-
tion and encouragement should be renounced.

[When the Yogi attains the last described sorrowless stage, he
is exposed to a great danger. The gods envy his high excellence,
but, unable to exercise open enmity, they try to divert him from

CHAPTER THIRD. 168

his purpose by insidious means. They place temptations in
his way, offer him handsome women, inexhaustible wealth, long
life, and so forth to bring him back to the ways of the world,
and thereby frustrate his purpose of attaining isolation. They
act the part of Satan in the Bible and of Mara in the Buddhist
system. In Hindu legends Indra is the chief god who envies
men who are about to rise superior to carnal weakness, and
the means he employs are the courtezans of his court, who
descend on earth and tempt all Yogis by their celestial charms.
According to the Tantras when such temptations fail, resort is
made to fear. Frightful forms of all kinds assail the १०६
when he is engaged in his meditations; venomous serpents hiss
around him; tigers prowl about him; ogres come with wide
open mouth to devour him. These are, in the technical language
of the Yoga system, called Vibhéshika. The lukewarm yield to
these, break their meditation, and are lost; the determined
take no note of them, and attain their object. It is believed
that these frightful forms never do any actual mischief; their
object is to frighten, to put to test the determination and firmness
of the Yogi, and not to do any positive harm. The advice given
in the Tantras is not to give any encouragement to such tempta-
tions, nor to be depressed or frightened by the dangers which
become manifest. Firmness suffices to overcome them. The
text here does not refer to frightening. }

In connexion with the manifestation of this fruitful under-
standing, he describes a means besides the Safiyamas above
described.

LIT.

From Safiyama with reference to the course of
moments (proceeds) an understanding born of dis-
criminative knowledge.

“ Moment” (kshana) is the smallest division of time, which can
no further be reduced in quantity. “Course” (krama) the suc-

164 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

cessive modifications of such moments of time. By performing
Saiiyama with reference to the course of moments, the aforesaid
understanding of discriminative knowledge results. The meaning
18 this: This is a moment of time, it is subsequent to another,
therefore the first is antecedent to this. For him who has
performed Saiiyama with reference to this course, interview with
the minutest is effected in the course of a moment, and so is the
interview effected of the subtile nature. This is manifestation
of discriminative knowledge.

[The next step of the Yogi is to perform Safiyama with re-
ference to the progress of time, and when this is accomplished,
discriminative knowledge becomes thoroughly manifest. |]

He now applies this Safiyama to a special subject.

LITI.

Therefrom results the knowledge of the difference
between two similars when that difference is not
marked out by kind, character and habitat.

^ Kind, character, and habitat” (jati, dakshan1, des‘a) are the
means of differenciation of things. Sometimes “kind” (jaéz) is
the cause of distinction ; as this 1s a cow, this is a buffalo. When
the kind is the same, “ character’ (/akskana) may be the cause
of distinction; as this is spotted, this is tawny. Where kind
and character are alike, the cause of distinction may be “ habitat,”
(des’a) ; thus with two emblic fruits of the same size and colour,
one may be of one country and the other of another. There are
again cases in which distinction cannot be determined, as particles
of white earth of one country. When Safiyama is performed
to ascertain distinctions in the last class of cases, a knowledge
of distinction is produced, and by its exercise distinctions
of even the exceedingly subtile categories may be perceived.
What is said is this: When distinctions cannot be ascertained
by any other means they, including a knowledge of such

CHAPTER THIRD. 165

distinctions in the subtile categories, may be known through this
Safiyama. ।

‘This aphorism explains what is meant by discriminative
knowledge. Under ordinary circumstances discrimination is
made by attention to kind, character and habitat. But this is
not possible in the case of the subtile categories which are not
amenable to such tests. For them Saiiyama is the only means,
and it should be brought to bear upon them. When the Satyama
is accomplished, the power of discriminating them is fully
acquired, and this is discriminative knowledge. ]

To explain the name, object, and nature of the aforesaid
knowledge resulting from discrimination, he says.

LIV.

The knowledge resulting from discrimination is
emancipating, omni-objective, semper-objective, instan-
taneous.

The knowledge which results from the power of the aforesaid
Safiyama at the last stage is «^ emancipatine” (Tdraka). That
whereby Yogis are ferried over the unfathomable ocean of the
world has the significant name of Taraka, (the emancipating).
He describes its object ; it is a “ omni-objective” (sarva-vishaya) ;
all categories from the Mahat downward are its objects, and
therefore it 1s omni-objective. Its characteristic is its semper-
objectivity (sarvathdvishayatva). That which has for its objects
the categories in all conditions, whether gross or subtile, in all
their modifications, and existing in all forms, is always semper-
objective. Another characteristic of it is ^^ instantaneousness”’
(aktrama). Being finally modified it has to make no progress in
accepting two, three or one form, hence “ instantaneous,” 2. ९.) (a
Yogi in this stage) perceives everything at once, like an emblit
fruit in the palm of one’s band.

[The discriminative knowledge aforesaid is here more fully
explained. It grasps all the categories and therefore the whole

166 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

universe. It makes them its object at all times, and its
knowledge is never absent. It acts instantaneously, because
it has the whole thing before it, and needs no process of observa-
tion and retiociation to come to an understanding. And every-
thing being known by it, it effects emancipation, for emancipation
means true knowledge. |

He now says what results from this emancipating knowledge
proceeding from discrimination.

LV.

On the purification of the quality of goodness and
of soul becoming equal, (there results) isolation.

% The quality of goodness and soul” have already been defined.
When their purification becomes equal there is isolation. The
“purification” (s’uddhi) of the quality of goodness of the
thinking principle is effected when, on the cessation of the
assumption of agency, it merges into its first cause. The purifica-
tion of soul is the absence of its factitious enjoyment. When the
two are equally purified (in this way), isolation is effected with
regard to the soul, ४. ९. it is emancipated.

[The thinking principle ordinarily fancies itself to be the
agent of all work, ४. ९. 1४ 1s conscious of being the actor in all
cases, and this is its natural function; but when this feeling is
removed by discriminative knowledge, it reverts to its primary
original condition, and ceases to cherish any idea of its being
the actor, and this is its purification. Similarly soul, though
itself devoid of action, is always engaged in an unnatural facti-
tious enjoyment of the fruits of work by its ass ‘ciation with the
thinking principle, and when that association is removed it is
purified. And this double purification, the cessation of the
thinking principle from fancying itself the actor and consequent
submersion into its original cause, and the removal of the associa-
tion between the soul and the thinking principle, effects the
isolation or separation of the soul from all attachments, and this
is emancipation from the bondage of the world.]

CHAPTER THIRD. 167

Thus have been described in this chapter the three principal
components of the Yoga, (1—111) ; their collective name Safi-
yama, (iv); the merits of that Saityama, (v—x); the three
modifications of things, the antecedent, the middle, the post-
eedent conditions, (xI—xvi) ; the Siddhis (xvi1); the external
perfections giving knowledge of regions (XvI1I—xxviII) ; the
internal perfections, giving knowledge of the organization of the
body (xxix—xLI); the organs (xt1); the stages of controul of
matter and organizations (XLI—xXLv111) ; the means of attaining
discriminative knowledge, the emancipating knowledge, the
highest Samadhi (xtIx—t.); the subsidence of the thinking
principle in its primary cause and isolation (एर). These are
the subjects described in this chapter on perfections. (Condensed
as before.)

This is the end of the third quarter, or the quarter on perfec-
tions, of the commentary, entitled Raéjamartanda, on Patanjali’s
Tustitutes of the Yoga, by the great king, the superior king,
the illustrious Bhojadeva.

168 CHAPTER FOURTH.

CHAPTER FOURTH.

I adore that solitary, unborn Is‘4na who is made up solely of
thinking principle and bliss, and by whose fiat isolation is
produced without (the aid of) any special means.

Now the author commences the chapter on Isolation with a
view to establish by inferential arguments and by refutation of
errors resulting from mistaken convictions, the true nature of
Isolation. And by showing that the perfections aforesaid result
from birth and various other causes, he demonstrates that they
appear with the help of the power resulting from the practice of
8४704411 in former births and from causes in this life from the time
of birth. Further, with a view to afford assurance that no harm is
done to Samadhi which may be acheived in course of many births,
and to prove the preeminence of the completion of Samadhi as
also for the consummation of the isolating Yoga, he says :—

I.

The Perfections are produced by birth, herb, in-
cantations, austerity, or Samadhi.

Some perfections are caused by birth, as the power of flying
in the air and the like in birds, or the perfected qualities of
knowledge manifesting themselves immediately after birth, as in
the great sage Kapila and others. Perfections from herbs—as
firmness of the boy, &c. produced by the use of elixirs in Patéla
and such like places. Perfections from incantations—as
ascent in the air by the repetition of particulary mantras. Per-
Sections from austerity—as in the case of Vis’vdmitra and others.
Perfections from Samddhi—as already described in the preceding
chapter.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 169

These perfections result in those persons who have destroyed pain
in previous births ; hence, as in the case of perfection by Samadhi,
so in the case of others, the real cause is the practice of Samadhi
in former births; incantations, &c. are merely instruments.

[The word S:ddhi comes from the root szsk ‘to accomplish,’
and means something accomplished, Transcendental powers
attainable by the performance of Safiyama, are perfections accom-
plished by special means and therefore called Siddhis or perfec-
tions; and having used that English equivalent elsewere I have
thought fit, for the sake of uniformity, to use it in the above
aphorism. It is, however, not fully expressive here. Special
powers, or faculties would have been much more expressive and
to the point, the purport of the aphorism being that some
faculties are derived from birth, some from herbs, some from
incantations, some from the practice of austerities, and some from
Samadhi, This general principle is laid down with a view to
prepare the way to what follows. ]

It might be contended that since in Nandis’vara and others
the change of kind, &c., were effected in this life, how can you
then establish the causality of the practice of Samadhi in
previous lives? In reply to this, he says:

II.

Change of kind (results) from transmutation of
the material cause.

The “ change of kind,” &c., in Nandis’vara and others in this
life (were produced) by “ the transmutation of material causes”
(prakritydpurat). Future materials (or materials which are
ordinarily produced in a subsequent life, come up and), produce
in this life the transmutations, z. ८.) they change themselves
into other kinds. | |

[The general principle having been laiddownin the first
aphorism that special faculties are produced by five causes, the
question arises, how does the body, which is produced by birth,

change even in this life, the material cause remaining unaltered,
22

170 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI,

and the Samadhi performed in a previous life no thaving effected
any change at birth? The reply is that 89118401 18 not the
material but an instrumental cause, and it prepares the way for
he selfmutation of the material cause.

Prakriti is here used in the sense of material cause, or
the materials of which the body is made up. Apérana is to fill
up. The two words together mean “ the materials fill up,” 3. e.,
they undergo the necessary transmutations to change one kind
into another. The purport is that even in this life the materials
of the body may so change as to convert a Brdhman’s body into
a divine one, as in the case of Nandis'vara, or a Kshatriya body
into a Brahmana one, as in the case of Vis’vamitra, and conse-
quently the exception taken to the argument put forth in the first
aphorism to the effect that “ birth, &c. are causes of perfection” is
not tenable. By the use of the word pééchitya, ‘future’, the
commentator means that the changes which in ordinary course
would take place in a future life, take place in exceptional cases
in this life. }

It may be argued that merits, demerits, &c., are in such cases
seen to be resulting (in this life when their fruits would not
under the theory be hable to manifestation), how can we then
attribute to them causality in the transmutation of the material
cause in this life? To this the author says:

III.

In the mutation of the material cause merit is
non-efficient : from it proceeds the piercing of the
covering, as in the case of the husbandman.

“Merit” (nimitta), virtue, &c. In the transformation of the
material cause merit is non-efficient, for a cause cannot be set in
motion by an effect. Where then is there the operation of virtue,
&९. 7 To this he says: ‘From it proceeds the piercing of the
covering, as in the case of the husbandman.” ‘From 1४.72 from
the performance of virtuous acts, &c., proceeds “the piercing”
(९८८४2) or destruction of whatever “ covering” (varana) obstruc-

CHAPTER FOURTH. 1171

tion, such as vice, &c., exists, the two being mutually antagonistic,
and the obstruction being destroyed, the material causes themselves
become effective in their desiderated work. This he illustrates by an
example. “ Asin the case ofa husbandman.” Even as a husband-
man or farmer, wishing to carry water from one field to another,
pierces only the obstacle to the flow of water, and that being pierced,
water itself assumes the modification of expansion, without any
exertion on the part of the husbandman to the expansion of water,
so should be understood to be the case with regard to virtue, &c.

[Following the line of argument adopted in the preceding
aphorism, the author shows that virtue, &c., are not the imme-
diate causes of the change which takes place when a Brahman
becomes a god, as in the case of Nandis’vara, but that they serve
the subsidiary purpose of removing the obstacles which stand
in the way of the change, and the change takes place by itself.
The illustration given puts this very clearly. The husbandman
does not make the water flow, he only removes the obstacles,
and then the water flows by itself from its own inherent tendency
to follow the law of gravitation. ]

When a Yogi, who has a mastery over the cardinal principles,
with a view to enjoy at once the fruits of his actions, from the
perception of his own superior transcendental powers, wishes to
assume many bodies at the same time, whence does he derive
many thinking principles (to vitalize those bodies)? In reply
to this question the author, says:

IV.

The created thinking principles (proceed) solely
from egoism.

The thinking principles which animate the bodies created by
a Yogi, proceed through his will solely from their original cause,
४. e., from egoism. They emanate at once as sparks from a fire.
[Among the perfections mentioned in chapter III the power
of multiplying one’s own body, so as to produce many where there
is one, is not mentioned, but here it is taken for granted that

172 APHORISMS OF PATANJALT.

an accomplished Yogi possesses this power, and that he does
produce them to effect quickly his emancipation by simultaneously
performing in many bodies those works which promote his end,
and the question is raised as to how does a Yogi, who creates
many bodies and himself animates them all, provide a thinking
principle for each of them? The answer given is that through
his will he makes his egoism send forth the needful, even as a
fire sends forth sparks from itself. This multiplication of bodies
is called Adyarytita Yoga or the Yoga of many bodies. |

Then, how do numerous thinking principles, having diversity
of objects, produce one effect ? To this, he replies:

V.

In the diverse tendency of the many the impelling
thinking principle is one.

“In the diverse tendency” (pravritt:bhede) or multifunction-
ality of the many thinking principles the one thinking principle
of the Yogi is the impelling force or actuator, because it is the
ruler, and therefore there is no difference of object. The mean-
ing is—that as in its own body the mind directs the eyes, the hands,
&९., according to its will, from its being the ruler, so does it in
the other bodies.

[In the preceding aphorism the question having been solved
as to how a single individual can provide thinking principles for
many bodies, the question arises as to how can many thinking
principles act in concert and preserve the unity of the creator? If
this unity be not admitted, there would be so many independent
individuals, each following the bent of his own mind, and the
idea of one individual acting as many without any loss of
individuality, would be lost. This doubt is removed by the
explanation that the thinking principles provided to the many
are in reality one, and entirely controlled by the primary think-
ing principle, of which they are mere scintillations ]

The thinking principle which belongs to the perfections result-
ing from birth, &c., are produced by the same five causes,

CHAPTER FOURTH. 173

and yet the thinking principle produced by Samé&dhi is distinct
from the others. To show this he says:

VI.

Thereof the meditation-born one is without any
residua.

“The meditation-born” (dhydénaja) thinking principle or that
which is produced by Samadhi, is, among the five, the one which
18 ^^ without any residua” (andsaya), ४, e., without any residua of
(former) work. This is the meaning.

[Thinking principles are said to be of five kinds, because they
proceed severally from birth, herbs, incantation, penances, and
meditation (A.1). The word used (ja), means “ born,” but the
object is not to imply that the thinking principles are actually
born of herbs, incantations, &c., but to indicate the training, habit
of thought, disposition or impurities which it acquires under the
five different circumstances. The first four are said to depend
on the residua of former works, and the last to have nothing to
rest upon, it being self-supporting, 7. ¢., not resulting from the
residua of any former work. ]

To show that the thinking principle of the Yogi is distinct in
its work, even as it 18 distinct from other thinking principles in
being devoid of pain, &c., he says :

VII.
The work of a Yost is neither white nor black : those
of others are of three kinds.

That work which produces good fruit, such as sacrifices, &c.,
15 ^ white” (६४८९८). That which produces a bad result, such ag
Bréhmanicide, 18 “black” (156१०) . That which is mixed up of
the two, 18 white-black (५1८4-6 26412). Thereof, the white work
belongs to wise people, to those who are engaged in charity, asceti-
cism, the study of the Vedas, &c.; the black belongs to the
vicious ; and the white-black (or mixed kind) toordinary men. As
regards Yogis, who have performed the Saiiyama, work is of a

174 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

different character to these: their work produces no fruit, for
they undertake it after renouncing all desire for fruition.

(In the first three kinds of work fruition is inseparable. The
wise give alms, perform penances, read the Vedas, display their
benevolence, &c. &c. and derive the fruits thereof; the vicious
commit wicked actions and suffer for the same; ordinary mortals
are sometimes engaged in good actions and sometimes in bad
ones, and suffer or enjoy accordingly. The Yogis, who renounce
the fruits of all actions, can neither suffer nor enjoy from what
they do, and hence their work is declared to be distinct from the
works of others. They are, in the language of the Bhagavadgita,
like the lotus-leaf which, lying on water or having water on it,
is never wetted. ]

Now he describes the fruit of such works.

VIII.

Thence proceeds the manifestation of the residua
which are suitable to its fruition.

Now, the residua of works produce two sorts of fruits, one sort
being memory only, and the other, kind, age, and experience.
Thereof, those residua which have for their fruition kind, age,
and experience which are derivable in one or many births,
have already been described above (p. 69). Of those the only
fruit of which is memory, the manifestation proceeds from the
same works. Even as work produces a body, whether as a Deva,
or a human being, or a lower animal, so does it by its maturity
lead to a corresponding manifestation of residua (vdsani). The
meaning is this. Should a celestial or other body once acquired
by a certain work be acquired even after the interposition of a
hundred other births the memorial residua of the former state
will manifest themselves again. Their memory revives according
to circumstances, even when residing in other regions. In the
intermediate states, though existing, they remain in a latent
condition. Nor do the residua produced in course of existence in
hell and other places become evident then.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 175

[For the sake of verbal fidelity I have used memory as the
equivalent of the Sanskrit term Smriéi of the commentary ; but
the object aimed at is not memory in its ordinary signification,
but the remembrance in one life of appetites, desires, and affec-
tions of a preceding one. These results manifest themselves
in, what in European philosophy is called, instinct. They are
remembrances, because they arise without any conscious purpose,
though they are not without consciousness. European philo-
sophers, who do not recognise transmigration, finding Instinct
to be opposed to Reason, take it to be something distinct from
it—a distinct faculty. In its widest signification it extends to
living beings in general—to plants as well as to animals,—but for
psychological purposes it is limited by Dugald Stewart to Appe-
tites, Desires, and Affections. Butler changes Desires into Pas-
sions, but without any material change of purport. Dr. Bain
says “ Instinct is untaught ability,” (Mental and Moral Science,
Bk. III, ८, 1V), and this is amplified by Hamilton into “ an agent
which performs blindly and ignorantly a work of intelligence
and knowledge.” (Reid’s Works, p. 7614.) Paley has “a pro-
pensity prior to experience, and independent of instruction.”
Milton calls it ^ Reason discursive or intuitive.’ These defini-
tions have been summed up into “ untaught ability,” ^^ untaught
propensity,” ‘unconscious purpose.” It is opposed to Habit,
which is the result of tuition and exercise, and distinct from
Reason, which presupposes argumentation and deliberation. The
memory of our text is Instinct as defined above; but our author
does not recognise spontaneity in anything, nor purpose indepen-
dent of Reason. He attributes the eteology of Instinct to
residua left in the thinking principle by rational action, and the
said residua lie dormant till they are made vivid in a subse-
quent life. Habits leave their residua exactly in the same way
as other actions, and they not only become manifest in the next
life, but also in the progeny, as in the cases of pointers and
other animals. In short, according to our author, Reason is one
and the sole faculty of all knowing, the only principle of certain,

176 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

ty, and it manifests itself as Reason or Instinct differently under
different circumstance. Anyhow, the meaning of our author
will be best understood by replacing his Memory by Instinct.

The aphorism under notice explains the fruit of work as mani-
fested by Instinct. Having already described that work leads to
two kinds of fruit, Instinct and deserts, or in his language memory
and kind, age and experience, he now says that Instinct does not
manifest itself uniformly at every successive birth, but according
to circumstances when it is needed in subsequent lives, even
after many interruptions, the residua for it remaining dormant
during such interruption. Thus, a man born in the next life
as a dog having no occasion for his human instincts, acts as a
dog, but twenty or more generations after, when he is again
born as a man, his early instincts revive, and he acts according
to them. This is the theory which the aphorism explains by
saying that residua manifest themselves in conformity to the
fruition of work. When a work entails existence as a serpent,
those residua become manifest which are appropriate to such an
existence, but not those which are appropriate for other forms
of life. In other words, residua remain dormant or in a
potential state until the necessary excitants are in operation.
The 8. P. Bhashya, explains this by saying, “ when a celestial
work is in fruition, it does not become the cause of manifestation
of the residua of infernal, brutal or human states; it then enlivens
only those residua which are conformable to a celestial existence.’’
(Na hi daivam karma vipachyamdnam naraka-tiryat-manushya-
vasandbhivyakti-nimittam bhavati kintu daivdnugund evdsya
vasand vyajante). The purport is that each kind of existence
brings to light its own appropriate residua. |

Doubt having been produced of there existing any causal
relation in these residua, he establishes it by saying:

IX.
From the uniformity of memory and residua there
is uninterruptibility of relation, even after breaks by
caste, locality and time.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 177

0 worldly beings transmigrating in diverse forms, when one,

after experiencing one form, attains that form again after an
interruption of a thousand other births, the residua of impres-
sions appropriate to that state, which had been formed at the
first birth and had become latent from want of the necessary
conditions, become manifest on the attainment of that suitable
state. Thus, there is, notwithstanding breaks caused by caste,
locality and time, an “ uninterruptibility” (auantarya) or conti-
nuity in producing their own necessary fruit of memory. How
so? “From the uniformity of memory and residua.” Thus, on
the performance of a work there is produced a deposit of
residuum on the quality of goodness of the thinking principle,
and that is the germ of the fruits of heaven, hell, &c.; or it is
the residua of works such as sacrifices &c. It exists as a latent
power, or as a power of the actor in relation to experience
and experiencer. From these residua proceeds memory, from
memory the experiencing of pleasure and pain, and from that
experience again come residua, memory, &c. It is true that
where memory and residua are different there is, from want of
uninterruptibility, a difficulty in producing a relation of cause
and effect ; but in our case here, where impressions become residua,
and residua merge into memory, and they reside in concord in one
thinking principle, the relation of cause and effect is not difficult
or hard of effectuation.

[According to the preceding aphorism the residua of former
births are the causes of manifestation of certain effects; but,
since concomitancy is necessary between cause and effect while
the intervention of many dissimilar births between two similars
causes an interruption, it may be argued that residua are not the
causes of memory, as alleged. This objection 18 met by saying
that the memory remains, and therefore sequence is obviously
not broken. The memory of sucking the teats on the part
of an infant returns after many births, whenever that infant ts
again born as a human being, though it does not manifest itself
when the same infant is born as a bird or a serpent, and it shows

23

178 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

that the memory is not lost. Hence the relation of cause and
effect is not broken.]

Admitting the uninterruptibility of residua, and their rela-
tion as cause and effect, it may be asked when an impression first
takes place is it caused by residua, or without a cause? To
solve this doubt, he says:

X.

There is no beginning about them, because of the
eternity of desire.

८८ About them,” 2. e., about or in regard ६०१८७१०४. ^ No
beginning” (andditva), that which has no commencement. The
meaning is, these have no beginning. How? “ Because of the
eternity of desire.” This “ desire” (57564) or longing of an in-
tensely delusive character— (manifesting itself in such wishes as)
‘may the means of effecting my pleasure be always mine;
may there never be a separation between me and them’—is the
cause of residua, and that being eternal there is no beginning.
This is the meaning. What is meant 18 this: From the
proximity of the cause the tendency of the functions of impres-
sions and residua cannot be checked, and the thinking principle,
from its expansible and contractile character, pierced by the
impressions, residua and the like, modifies itself when it attains
each appropriate existence.

[The theory of Instincts being the result of action in former
lives is open to the grave objection that it does not account for
Instinct in the first instance. A being born for the first time
should have, according to the theory, no Instinct. The initia]
impression must therefore be causeless, and so there is no reason
to admit that residua are the causes of effect, ४ ¢., of birth, age
and experience. This objection is met in this aphorism by saying
that Desire is eternal, and therefore there is no necessity for a
beginning. Desire is essential to existence; there would be no
existence if there was no Desire; and that Desire produces
residua, and so there is no break in the course of eternity. The

CHAPTER FOURTH. 179

opponent wished to expose the fallacy of the argument regard-
ing residua being the cause of Intuition by showing that there
could be no residua at the first start, and the author accepts
ॐ regressus tn infinitum to surmount the difficulty. According to
him the universe had no beginning and will never end, and
therefore there is no occasion to seek a beginning.]

From their infinity it being doubtful that the residua can
ever be destroyed, he points out the means of destroying them.

XI.
Since they are agglomerated by cause, effect, sub-
stratum and support, their absence would produce the
absence of the others.

Conception (anuéhava) is the cause of residua ; desire, &c., are
the causes of conceptions ; and of them the cause is ignorance.
Thus 18 (ignorance) both the immediate and the mediate ^^ cause”
(0८८४). ‘ Effect” (phala) is body, memory, &c. =^ Substratum”
(a$raya) is the intellectual principle. ‘ Support” (d/améana or
object of desire) 18 the same for both conceptions and residua.
Now, since these infinite residua are collected by these cause, effect,
substratum and support, when they are absent, 2, e., when they
may be likened to roasted seeds, on their being burnt by know-
ledge and Yoga, there being no root left, the residua cannot sprout,
nor lead to action, and thus they are destroyed.

(Now the question is raised, how can one undo that which is
eternal? and the answer given is—since desires proceed from,
or are the sum total of, cause, effect, substratum and support,
one has to remove those conditions which produce desires, and
that removal zpso facto removes desires. The removal is effected
by the aid of Yoga. Yoga knowledge parches cause, effect,
substratum, and support by exposing their real nature, and when
80 parched, they become, like roasted seeds, unfit for germination,
and their destruction follows as a matter of course. Of course
this is limited to the individual who effects the parching, and
does not extend to the world at large. |

180 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

It may be questioned, that since the thinking principle is being
constantly destroyed, and there is a difference in their relation as
cause and effect from their want of simultaneity between residua
and their effects, how can there be a unity ? To prove the unity,
he says :

XIT.

(The thinking principle) exists in its proper nature ;
the past and the future (result) from differences in the
condition of qualities.

The (possibility of) production of things which are absolutely
non-existent 1s unreasonable, from their want of relation to exis-
tence. Nowhere has there been any relation to existence in the
horns of a hare.

In the case of a nonentity as an effect, with what design
can causes proceed to act? None enters into action for a false
object, and it being opposed to entity there is no relation of
nonentity to it. When truth attains its own identity, how can
it become baseless and untrue? ‘The meaning 1s, it cannot
accept an antagonistic form. Hence from there being no possi-
bility of the destruction of existence, and from the impossibility
of the origin of non-existence, the qualified, convertible by
qualities, always remains in one form. The qualities, alone,
change into their threefold conditions. Attaining each condition,
the qualified forsakes its original form, and, remaining in the
present condition, attains the state of objects of enjoyment.
Hence in this science are established the distinctions of the past
and future conditions of qualities, and of their relation to each
other as cause and effect. Hence, too, the same thinking principle
is made to exist as the qualified until isolation, and none can
prevent it.

(The removal suggested in the preceding aphorism suggests
the idea of destruction ; but that is not possible. Nothing can
proceed from non-existence, and no existence can be absolute
non-existence, and the difficulty is solved by referring to the

CHAPTER FOURTH. 181

doctrine explained in A. 14 €. III which recognizes a threefold
condition of existence, the antecedent, the postcedent, and the
present. Matter is eternal, and remains always an existence;
but its conditions vary ; accordingly when the present condition
of a thing is destroyed, the thing reverts to one or other of
its two other conditions, and the parching of the seeds implies
their resolution into the antecedent condition. This is the theory
of Moderate Nominalism or Conceptualism with its threefold
condition of Universalia ante rem, as thoughts in the mind of
God; Universalia in re, as the essence (quiddity) of things;
and Universalia post rem, as concepts. The text looks to
thoughts or ideas or plastic types without reference to God.]

He now describes of what forms these qualified and the quali-
ties are.

१९8१९

They are individualised or subtile, and consist of
qualities.

The qualities and the qualified described above are divided into
the individualised and the subtile. The “ qualities” (gundh) are
of the forms of goodness, foulness, and darkness. ‘ To consist
०? (taddtmanah) is to be of that nature, or to be modified to that
form: this is the meaning. Since there is seen a concomitance
in all persons, both externally and internally, through goodness,
foulness, and darkness in the forms of pleasure, pain and delusion,
of individuals and conceptions, and since it is found that which
is concomitant is also its modified form, as in the case of jars
which are concomitants of earth are also modified forms of
earth, therefore the modification of qualities is evident.

{The simple proposition in this aphorism is that all attributes
are mere modifications of the three primary qualities. Circum-
stances may make them subtile or gross, but, whether one or the
other, they consist of nothing but the three qualities of good-
ness, foulness, and darkness modified in some one form or

another. They are mere modes of being, but not radically
different: beings. |

182 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

Apprehending the doubt that if all these three qualities be
the chief causes everywhere, how can we talk of one qualified
(or one substratum of quality) ? he says :

XIV.

From unity of modification (results) unity of a
thing.

Although there are three qualities, yet their modification into
the member and the membered, (in some cases goodness becoming
the membered, in some cases foulness, and in others darkness,)
being one, “ unity” (¢a¢tva) or oneness is admitted. Thus, in the
examples this is the earth, this is the air, &., (in which unity
is observed, for earth is a modification of darkness, and air of
foulness.)

(The purport is that as only one modification can take place
of the thinking principle at a time, the unity of a thing is
never disturbed. The thinking principle under similar circum-
stances changes exactly in the same way, and no difference can
possibly result. In other words, as the three qualities can be
only separately ascendant, one at a time, the simultaneous percep-
tion of the effects of all the three cannot be effected ; and this
meets the objection raised in the preamble. }

Had objects existed distinct from cognition it would be
proper to talk of the unity or multiplicity of objects, but when
cognition itself from the influence of residua existing in the
relation of cause and effect, appears in different shapes, how
can you say so? In reply to this question, he says :

XV.

Even in the sameness of object, the course of the
two are distinct, from diversity of the thinking prin-
ciple.

“ Of the two,” of the cognition and the cognizable, the course

is distinct, follow different or separate roads. How so? From
diversity of thinking principles even in the sameness of object.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 183

Even in similar things, as the attainment of women and the
like, differences of thinking are noticeable in different observers
from the resulting sensations of pleasure, pain and delusion.
Thus, on beholding a beautiful and attractive woman, pleasure
is felt by an amorous person, enmity by her rival, and disgust
by an ascetic. And since these different kinds of feeling arise
from one object there can be no agency in the thing itself.
If it be said that object is the effect of our thinking principle
only, the object would appear in one form only. Also, if a
thing were an effect of the thinking principle then there would
be no other thing extant when that thinking principle would be
occupied with one thing. (If it be said) be it so, we deny it.
For how could that thing then be beheld by many others?
And since it is so beheld, it cannot be an effect of the thinking
principle. If it be said that it is created by many at the same
time, the reply would be that there would be a difference between a
work produced by many, and a work produced by one. And if
the difference be not admitted, then there being difference of
cause without a difference of effect, the universe would be either
causeless, or uniform. What is said is this: should there be no
difference of effect when the causes are different, then the whole
universe resulting from many causes would either be of one form,
or not following the different causes, be causeless from its indepen-
dence (of the causes). And if it is so (it may be asked) why
does it not, being made of the three qualities, produce in the
same percipient the sensations (simultaneously) of pleasure, pain
and delusion? The case is not so. Even as the object consists of
three qualities, so is the thinking principle made up of three
qualities, and in its perception of objects, merits and demerits are
accessory causes, and from their prevalence or depression results the
manifestation of the thinking principle in such and such (varying)
forms. Thus inthe presence of a woman near an amorous person,
his thinking principle, disposed towards merit through the influence
of the quality of goodness, becomes full of pleasure. From the
co-operation of the quality of foulness, which is auxiliary to vice,

184 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

for all rival wives, it becomes painful. Similarly from the
co-operation of the quality of darkness, which is attended by
ardent vice, it becomes to angry rival wives the cause of
delusion. Hence the cognizable object is independent of
cognition, and consequently cognizable and cognition, being
contradictory in their natures, cannot bear the relation of cause
and effect. Thus it being possible without any difference in the
cause for the existence of a difference in effect from their
relation, the independence of cognition from the object is
established.

[The question discussed in the preceding aphorism raises a
doubt as to whether perception is due to objects or to the
cognitive power. It cannot be said that objects produce percep-
tion, for in that case a given object would always and every-
where produce the same sensation, as a given cause cannot
produce dissimilar effects. A handsome woman should be a
handsome woman to all beholders, without a distinction. In
the world this is, however, not the case. A woman produces very
dissimilar feelings in different beholders, and she, as the object,
cannot therefore be said to be the cause of perception. On the
other hand, the thinking principle cannot be the cause, for if you
accept it to be one in all persons, it, as a cause, cannot produce
different effects ; and if you accept it to be different in different
individuals, dissimilar causes would lead to one uniform result,
which is impossible. The solution offered is that thinking principle
and object are different, but inasmuch as both are governed by the
three qualities, the prevalence of a particular quality at a parti-
cular time in the thinking principle produces a difference in the
perception of an object. The “diversity of the thinking princi-
ple” in the text implies a diversity in its condition as regards the
state of the qualities working within it. The argument here is the
same which European philosophers discuss with reference to sensa-
tions and sensibles ; and the optional use of jndna and vijndna by
our author shows that he means cognition or sensation and per-
ception, and not the higher knowledge elsewhere indicated by the

CHAPTER FOURTH. 185

word ynana. I have used for it cognition after Mr. Jardine, who
defines it as “a general name which we may apply to all those
mental states in which there is made known in consciousness either
some affection or activity of the mind itself, or some external
quality or object.” (‘ The Elements of the Psychology of Cogni-
tion,’ p.1). The object to which this [दव or cognition is applied
18 gneya or cognizable, which is just the same with idea as
used by Locke, who says, “it is the term which, I think, serves
best to stand for whatsoever is the object of the understanding
when a man thinks; I have used it to express whatever is meant
by phenomena, notion, species, or whatever it is which the mind
can be employed about in thinking.” Idea, however, has been
used in 80 many varying senses by European metaphysicians
that I have thought it safe to confine myself to coguizaéle or
object, as least likely to cause misconceptions. The theory of
eternity of matter is here made the basis of the argument. ]

Since a cognition, being an illuminator, is by nature per-
ceptive, and the object, being susceptible of illumination, is
by nature perceivable, why should cognition not perceive and
recollect all things simultaneously? With a view to remove
such doubt, he says :

XVI.

A thing is known or unknown from its dependence
on its change of form in the thinking principle.

“Its” of the object. = ^ From its change of form” (upardgat).
From its producing forms in the thinking principle, an external
object becomes known or unknown. The meaning is this: in the
attainment of their production all things depend on the conjunc-
tion of their causes. The production of the cognition of a
blue or other colour depends on the accessory cause of the
form being brought forward as an object through the passage
of the organs of sensation; perception being impossible without
the object, since there 18 no correlation. Hence, by whatever
object is the form of cognition modified, that object is brought

२५

186 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

into cognition, $, ¢., that object becomes known. That which
does not give its shape (to the thinking principle) is held
to be unknown. Similarly, recollection is produced of that object
which, having been known before, has left residua in the mind, and
which residua, excited by a similar object, acting as the accessory
cause, brings it to our knowledge. Hence, neither cognition,
nor memory is constant everywhere, nor is there any inconsis-
tency.

(The argument mooted in the last aphorism is further deve-
Joped by saying that the effect of the qualities is transmitted to
the thinking prineiple through the object seen, and the thinking
principle is thereby modified differently under different circum-
stances. The qualities act from two different directions, first in
the thinking principle apart from the object, and next in the
object, and through it in the thinking prineiple. A man ina
passion has the quality of foulness prevalent in him, and then
that foulness affects everything he sees, though it is not foul; and
when all the qualities are calm in him, he sees a foul action, and
the foulness of that action enters within him and tinges his
thinking principle from without. ]

To remove the doubt that since the perceiving soul does not
perceive a yellow cclour when it perceives a blue, there is liability
of its assuming, like the thinking principle, different shapes,

or being modified from its being at times the perceiver, he
gays:
XVII.

The functions of the thinking principle are always
known, for its presiding soul is unmodifiable.

All the functions of the thinking principle—characterised as
they are by proofs, misconceptions, &c.,—are “always,” ४, ¢., at all
times, known to its percipient soul, since it is unmodifiable, or
wanting in liability to change from its being of the form of the

intellect (ch7drupa). Were it mutable, the constant percep-
tibility of those functions would not follow, the mutability

CHAPTER FOURTH. 187

being (necessarily) occasional. The meaning is this. The soul of
the form of intellect always remaining as the presiding principle,
and its intimate associate, the pure element, the thinking principle,
being also always present, by whatever object it (the latter)
is modified in shape there is the probability of that object
being always brought into contact with the shadow of the
former (soul, chet); and such being the case it is established
that there is constant perceptibility, and never can there be
any apprehension of change.

(Having explained the relation of cognition to cognizables,
and the rationale of the process by which things become known or
unknown, the author proceeds to explain how it is that the thinking
principle, which, under the circumstances alleged, is always chang-
ing and assuming new forms, should still be able to know different
objects, or have the power of understanding. The thinking
principle is admitted to be tz se unconscious, and is itself under-
going constant modifications, and cannot therefore exercise intelli-
gence, and be itself the cause of knowledge. But, says the author,
its presiding soul is constant and immutable, and associated with
that soul it derives reflected intelligence, and by its aid it is always
able to know whatever external object casts its shadow on it. In
otber words, though the thinking principle is itself unconscious,
it derives intelligence from the soul which is pure intelligence
and absolutely immutable. The P. Bhashya explains the aphorism
by saying, “had the presiding soul been hable, like the thinking
principle, to constant mutation, then objects or the functions
of the thinking principle would have become, like sounds and
other objects, sometimes known and sometimes unknown to it;
but constant consciousness (८६४८, perceptibility) of the mind is
indicated by the immutability of its presiding soul.” (Yadé

vrittayah sabdddivishayavat jnitajnaldh syuh, saddjndtatvants
manasastatprabhoh purushasydparindmitvamanumapayati.) This
idea is further developed in other commentaries. |

Now it may be said that since the thinking principle itself,

188 APHORISMS OF PATANJALTI.

from excess of the quality of goodness, is the illuminant, it can
from its self-illumination, illuminate both itself and the object,
and the act of perception can thereby be completed, what is the
use of the assumption of a separate percipient? To allay this
doubt, he says :

XVIII.

It is not self-illuminative, since it is perceptible.

“It,” the thinking principle, is not “ self-illuminative”
(४४८९484), expositor of itself, but it is perceptible by the soul.
How so? Because it is “perceptible.” A perceptible is known
by a percepient, as in the case of a water-jar or the like.
The thinking principle is an object of perception, and therefore
it is not self-illuminative.

[The argument in the next preceding aphorism would suggest
the idea that the thinking principle, whether directly or in-
directly, was itself the perceiver, and that being the case there
is no necessity for assuming a separate perceiver. Where one
assumption is sufficient, two are not needed. This objection of the
opponent is refuted in the aphorism under notice, by saying
that the thinking principle cannot be the percipient, or self-
illuminattve, because it is itself an object of perception. That
which is an object of perception cannot itself be percipient; and
the commentator illustrates this by citing the example of a water-
jar, which, as an object of perception, cannot know itself. The
P. Bhashya elaborates the argument by saying, “ Even as the
other organs and their objects, such as audition, &c., cannot be
self-illuminative from the circumstance of their being perceivables,
the mind should be so known. Nor can fire be an example in
this instance; for even fire cannot make its own hidden identity
visible. Manifestation is seen to result from the conjunction
of a manifestator with a manifestable, and such conjunction
cannot take place with one’s own identity. Besides if the theory
of self-illuminativeness of the thinking principle be admitted, it
would not be perceptible to any body else.” (Yathetardnindriya~

saiiyoge drishtah, na cha svartipamdtresti saftyoyah kincha svd-
bhasam chittamityagrahyameva kasyachiditi.) The illustration
of fire becomes appropriate on the assumption that it owes its
luminosity to itself. But the luminosity contemplated by the
term svdbhasa is knowledge, and not light. In fact, the light
of the text can be understood only by substituting for it the
word knowledge, throughout the discussion. |

It may be said that the argument here has accepted the pro-
position, (४, ९.» it involves a petitso principiz), for the percepti-
bility of the thinking principle bas not yet been established.
Besides, in men the functions of accepting that which is good
and rejecting that which is injurious are made manifest through
the consciousness of one’s own intellect; and such feelings as
“T am angry,” “I am afraid,” “I have no desire,” cannot be
produced without the consciousness of the intellect (and since
they are, the agency of the soul is not needed.) To meet
this argument, he says:

XIX.

Attention cannot be directed to both at the same
time.

The understanding of an object is the establishment of its
usefulness by (knowing it to be) this—this is the object which
is the cause of pleasure or pain. The understanding of the intellect
is the establishment of the use of that object through pleasure or
pain in the form of I (or the ego). In the perception of an
object two such kinds of understanding cannot be effected at the
same time, for there is a contradiction. There is no possibility
of effecting two contradictory actions simultaneously, and there-
fore it is not possible to perceive “both,” 2. e., cognition and
cognizable at the same time. Hence, it is laid down that the
thinking principle is not self-illuminative. Further, even if

190 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

two such actions could be accomplished, their fruits could not
result, for there cannot be an apprehension of the two fruits,
because the thinking principle being directed outwards to grasp
an object cannot know itself. The result is confined only to the
object, and not to itself. This is the meaning.

[The opponent again comes to the charge, and says that the
intellect or understanding may supply the place of the soul, for
the thinking principle may see, and the intellect may decide about
the nature of the sight. The author demurs to this by saying two
such functions cannot take place simultaneously, or the thinking
principle cannot see and argue at the same time. The sensation
of hunger is first felt, and then its nature discussed. The
thinking principle must undergo two modifications, once to feel,
and then to consider, and these it cannot undergo at once; so
these two acts can never take place simultaneously, and consequent-
ly it cannot be said that the thinking principle is alone sufticient to
account for consciousness and knowledge: a separate cause must be
assigned for these two feelings, and that cause is the soul. The
P. Bhashya pithily disposes of the question by saying, “ It is not
possible to behold one’s own self and another at the same time, for
it leads to the theory of the momentarists who hold action, effect
and cause to be the same.”” (Na chaikasmin kshane svapararipa-
vadhdranam yuktam, kshanikavadino yad bhavanam sasva kriyad
tadeva cha kdrakamityabhyupagamah.) The meaning of the
aphorism is simply that the thinking principle cannot perform
the two acts of perception and self-knowing at the same time, and
therefore it is obvious that it cannot by itself be the cause of
intelligence. |

Let it be admitted that a cognition cannot be self-perceptive,
still may it not be perceived by another cognition? Assuming
such a question, he says:

XX.

If one cognition be the perceptible of another,

there would be an excessiveness of cognitions to

CHAPTER FOURTH. 191

cognitions, and also a confusion of memory.

If one cognition could cognize another, then that cognition
being itself unintelligent and unable to illuminate another,
we must assume a third cognition and for it another, and so
on and a thing could not be perceived in the whole lifetime
of aman. Nor can an object be known when the cognition
remains unknown.

It leads also to “confusion of memory.” On a particular
colour or a taste being produced in a cugnition there would arise
an endless series of cognitions to perceive it, and when the
residua left by a former cognition would attempt to recall it
to memory there would arise, from there being no break in the
ideas of cognitions and objects, cognitions and memories simul-
taneously, and hence, it being impossible to make out with
reference to what object the recollection has arisen, there would
be a confusion of memory, 2. ९.) 1४ would not be known that
this is the memory of colour and this is the memory of taste.

[The explanation above given leaves the door open to the
assumption that one cognition may perceive another, and thus
obviate the necessity of assuming the agency of the soul, 2, ९.9
each individual may have many cognitions which co-operate
with each other in producing knowledge of a particular object.
To preclude this theory, the author brings forward the argument
of regressus in infinitum. If one cognition could perceive
another, we would require a third to perceive the second, and
80 on, and there would be no end to the chain. It would,
he urges, also lead to a confusion of memory, for on one idea
being called to memory all its attendant ideas would arise to
infinity, and it would be impossible to determine which is the
particular idea that has been revived. ]

The question may then be asked, if, in the absence of self-
perceptive power in cognitions (buddii), one cognition cannot
be known by another, how do we use the idea this is the

perception of an object ? To remove this doubt, he expounds his
conclusion.

192 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

XXI.
The intellection of its own cognition takes place
when it takes its form through the non-transitional
soul.

¢ Soul” (purusha), being of the form of intelligence, is called
chiti (intellect), It is‘ non-transitional” (apratisaftkrama), that
which has no transition or passing into another place is so called :
by this is meant that it does not mix with anything. In the
modification of the member and the membered, the (three)
qualities, (as members) in passing into the qualified or membered,
assume their forms, and in the world atoms, moving on, produce the
forms of objects; but the power of intellection (४, e., soul) does
not do so, because it always retains its own form, inasmuch as it
exists in itself. Hence when the thinking principle, being near
it, assumes its shape, intellection takes place; and when the soul,
by its contact with the function of the thinking principle being
endowed with understanding, cognizes, then the knowing of the
thinking principle of its own self takes place.

[The soul never undergoes any modification, but by its
reflection on the thinking principle that principle derives its
intelligence, and that intelligent state is therefore said to be
attained through the non-transitional soul. It is then ८१४८ or
intelligence, because for the time being it has intelligence in it,
and this is explained by the commentator. When the thinking
principle in its intelligent state assumes the form of an object, it
18 able to know its own notions. The ©. Bhdshya explains the
text by saying, ^^ unmodifiable is the power of experiencing ; it is
also non-transitional. On its reflection falling on the excessibly
modifiable (the thinking principle) the functions of the latter reflect
on it. Thereupon people call it the function of understanding from
its imitating the function of the thinking principle enlivened by
intelligence, though it is devoid of the function of understanding.”
(The force of the argument here depends upon the distinction
made between intelligence and the function of understanding,
for the soul, though intelligence itself, does not exercise any

CHAPTER FOURTH. 193

function.) (Aparinimini hi bhoktrifaktirapratisaftkrama cha

cha praptachattanyopagraharupayd baddhivritteranukarimdtra-
tayd buddhivpityavigishtd hi jndnaorittirdkhgdyate).

Pandit Govindadeva Siastri, following some later commenta-
tors, explains the text so as to mean that the soul itself under-
goes the modification. The earlier and more reliable commenta-
tors, however, do not accept that meaning, and as the sequel
shows them to be right I have accepted their interpretation. ]

To show that thus the self-perceptive thinking principle, being
able to perceive all objects, becomes fit for all purposes, he says:

XXII.

The thinking principle, modified by the knower and
the knowable, is (able to perceive) all objects.

“ The knower” (drash{d) is soul. To be modified by it is to seem
to be of its form from its propinquity. To be modified by the
knowable, is to undergo the modification of assuming the form of
the (object) perceived. When this (double modification) takes
place, then it becomes able to perceive all objects, Even asa trans.
parent crystal, or a mirror, or the like 1s fit to receive the reflection
of all images, so the quality of goodness, unstained by foulness
and darkness, is able, from its purity, to receive the reflection of
the soul (chet). Not so foulness and darkness, owing to their
‘want of purity. The quality of goodness, divested of all asso-
ciation with foulness and darkness, from its being liable to only
-one modification, and being able to receive the reflection of
the intelligent soul, remains like a steady lamp-flame till the
attainment of emancipation (mokska). Even asin the vicinity
of a loadstone motion is produced in iron, so in the vicinity of
the intelligent soul manifestible intelligence is reflected on the
quality of goodness. Accordingly, in this system of philosophy
two powers of intelligence are recognized, the eternally present
(ns¢yoditd) and the manifestible (adA:eyafigd). The eternally

25

194 APHORISMS OF PAPANSALI.

present power of intelligence is soul. The manifestible power of
intelligence is the quality of goodness, which derives its power
by its contiguity to the former. From extreme propinquity, it,
as an intimate friend, effectuates the experiencership of the soul.
And as that quality is the resting place of Purusha, the supreme
soul, the Séfikhyas, who recognise an actionless Brahma, attribute
to it the experience of pleasure, pain and delusion. (The epithets
“supreme” and ^ Brahma” are meaningless here, for the human
soul is all that is meant: God as Brahma is not indicated).

Now, though from the extreme abeyance of some one quality
and of its prevalence at certain times and in some cases, all the
three qualities are constantly modifying in the forms of pleasure,
pain, and delusion, and the thinking principle is not pure, yet when
that principle modifies its form into that pure quality of goodness,
which is the essence of work, it attains its perceptibility. The
pure primary quality of goodness of the thinking principle, on the
one side reflected upon by intelligence or the soul, and on the other
covered by the thinking principle modified into the forms
of external objects, and becoming conscious from the effect
of the reflection of the soul, becomes able to feel pleasure,
pain and delusion, though it is devoid of intelligence. Thus the
experience, from its extreme propinquity to soul and from want
of due discrimination, is said to be of soul, though it is unexperi-
encing. To this effect has Vindhyavasi said: ‘ the sufferingness
of the quality of goodness is the sufferingness of soul.” Elsewhere
it 18 said. ‘‘ Even as an image produced by the reflection of-a
reflected image on a mirror is called a reflection, so the mani-
festation of the shadow of intelligence, like the intelligence of
soul, is implied by the word pratisankrdanti or contact.”

It might be argued that, though the reflection of the ever-
modifying may be seen in a transparent body, as a human
face in a looking-glass, how can there arise the reflection of
the absolutely transparent, all-pervading, unmodifying soul in
the comparatively untransparent quality of goodness? To this
the reply is—Not knowing the true nature of reflection you

CHAPTER FOURTH. 195

have said this. The display of the manifestible power of
intelligence in the quality of goodness, by the propinquity of the
soul, is called reflection. Even as is that sentient power, abiding
in the soul, ¦ ५ does its reflection appear in the quality of good-
ness.

Again, since it has been-said that soul is absolutely pure, how
can it be in contact with the (comparatively) untransparent quality
of goodness ? This argument is not correct, for the contact of the
sun and the like (which are highly transparent) is seen in water
and the like which are less transparent. If it be said that there
can be no contact of that which is undefined, that too would be in-
consistent, because we see the all-pervading sky (1452) reflected in
a looking-glass, or the like. And such being the case, there can be
no objection to the effectuation of the reflection (under notice).

It may be argued that what has been said about there being
an apparent or external contact by propinquity of the sentient
power with the quality of goodness of the thinking principle,
there should be the experience of pain and pleasure on the part
of soul, is inconsistent, for how can the quality of goodness
of the thinking principle be produced without a modification of
Prakriti? and for what object should there be a modification of
Prakriti? ‘To this it is replied, that Prakriti has to effectuate
soul’s experience of the objects of mundane existence, and, its duty
being to effectuate the object of soul, the modification is proper.

It may be urged that this is not proved, for the effectuation
of the soul’s object is impossible. The duty of effectuating
soul’s object implies the consciousness on the part of Prakriti
that “it is my duty to effectuate soul’s object ;” but how can there
be such a consciousness on the part of the unsentient Prakriti? If
you admit the consciousness, how will you maintain its unsentience
or inertness? The reply to this is that in the two forms of
progressive and regressive modification. there are the two natural
powers (of progression and regression), and they are called the
duty of effectuating soul’s purpose. Those powers are natural
to the unsentient Prakriti. Its progressive modification (ana -

196 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

loma-parindma) is the outward one, extending from the intelleet
to gross matter; while eatering through its cause and ending
with the annihilation of egoism is its regressive modification,
(pratzloma parinama). Hence onthe completion of a experi-
ence, the two natural powers being destroyed, Prakffti, having
achieved its object, ceases to modify. In performing such duty
for soul on the part of the unsentient Prakriti, there is no
inconsistency.

Again, it may be argued, if there be two such powers naturally
possessed by Prakriti, then why is exertion made for salvation
(moksha) by those who long for it? and if salvation be no
object the science of those who advise it is worthless. The answer
is, the relation of soul and Prakriti as experiencer and ex-
perience is from time without a beginning, and that being the
ease, when pain is felt on the part of Prakyiti in action, from the
assumption of its being the agent or actor, there arises the desire—
५४ how can there be absolute stoppage of my suffering ?” and hence
there is a necessity on the part of Prakriti for the advice of the
science which points out the means of stopping the pain. The
substance of the advice of the science is the quality of goodness
of the thinking principle as governed by work. In other works
on philosophy this has been accepted to be the nature of igno-
rance (avidyd.) That nature, exerting for salvation, relying on
the help of the advice of such seiences, obtain the reward called
salvation. All works influenced by the (necessary) conjunction
of causes attain their own selves, and it is established by
proof that of the work called moksha, which is acquired by
regressive modification, this is the conjunction of causes, because
it cannot be attained by any other method. Hence without that
cause how can it be effected? It follows, therefore, that the
quality of goodness of the thinking principle modified by worldly
objects in contact and enlightened by the shadow of soul, con-
ducts, through the conviction of (the reality of) those objects,
all worldly affairs. Deluded people, looking at such thinking
prineiple, imagine it and all such thinking principles to be the
world. ‘They should be enlightened.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 197

{Having met all the principal objections to the theory of the
thinking principle being ‘sensitized into intelligence by a
reflection of soul which is intelligence, the author enunciates
that the thinking principle, modified on the one hand by the soul
and on the other by external objects, is brought into play in
every case of sensation. The word used in the text for the
double transformation is uparakta, which is a compound of ५00
‘excess’ and ranja ‘ to colour’ or ‘tinge,’ meaning that the think-
ing principle is doubly tinged or influenced; and this conveys
the true meaning of the text. The P. Bhashya accordingly
cites the example of the crystal vase tinged by the coloured object
put in it. Inasmuch as the theory, however, is that the thinking
principle assumes the shape of the object in every instance of
cognition, and the same epithet is used for the double tinging, it
is necessary, for the sake of consistency, to adopt the same phrase-
ology everywhere; I have accordingly used the word modified.

Bhoja, after explaining the text, enters into a long dissertation
on the various objections that may be started to the doctrine,
and refutes them serzatum. The first and most obvious objection
is—how can a shadow of soul produce in an object on which
it falls the quality of the original? Soul may be intelligence,
but its shadow cannot reasonably be said to convey that intelli-
gence on the object on which it falls. Thecommentator sees no
harm in this, for, says he, such action is manifest in the motion
produced in iron by the propinquity of a loadstone. He de-
scribes soul’s intelligence to be two-fold; one 18 Nityoditd or
always and eternally present, and the other Adbhivyatga or
manifestible, and it is the latter that sensitizes the thinking
principle.

The next argument is, if it be the thinking principle that is
sensitized, how can soul be said to be the experiencer? The
reply is—that soul is really not the experiencer, but since experi-
ence is felt by the agency of its shadow it is in an indiscriminate
way called experiencer.

Then the question arises how can reflection take place of

198 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

a perfectly transparent object like soul, on a comparatively
untransparent object like the thinking principle with the quality
of goodness prevalent in it? This is met by saying that the
word reflection here simply is the technical name of the influence
of soul on the thinking principle

An argument like the last is raised with reference to the
contact of the absolutely pure soul with a comparatively impure
thinking principle. This, however, is held possible, as we see the
sun reflected in foul water. The contact of that which is illimi-
table with a finite object is also possible, as in the case of the
sky reflected in a mirror |

The objection next urged is that why should Prakriti or
nature change to produce effects? The answer is, it subserves
the purposes of soul. This answer is, however, not enough, for
Prakriti or nature being unintelligent, cannot have such a
consciousness of duty, andact पृ) ६0 1४. The reply is that Prakriti
has two inherent powers in it, that of progression and of re-
gression, and acting under their impulses it subserves the pur-.
poses of soul, and therefore there is no inconsistency.

The admission of the two powers aforesaid suggests the objec-
tion that, if they be natural they will run their course of their
own accord, and there is no use in controlling them. The
effect of the regressive action is salvation, and that must come
of itself; none needs try for it, and, if so, what is the use of
Yoga as a means of salvation? This is met by saying that it
is Prakriti when in action that feels pain and, wishing to puta stop
to that pain, wants to know how to do so, and hence arises the
desire for salvation, and the Yoga points out the means of doing
so. Without such advice Prakriti would go on working for
ever. |

The 7. Bhashya has not mooted these discussions. |

Suspecting that it may be argued that if all purposes are
accomplished by a thinking principle of this kind, why should
we acknowledge an experiencer of which there is no proof, he
gives the proofs (in support of the existence) of the spectator.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 199

। XXIII.

It exists for another’s purpose, though coloured
by uncountable residua, because it operates by asso-
ciation.

“It,” the thinking principle, “coloured,” ४, e., assuming
many forms, through the influence of an uncountable number
*of “ residua” (vdsand) (existing in it), effectuates for “ another’s,”
i. ९. a master’s, “ purpose” (artha) the work of experience and
final reward. How so? “ Because it operates by association.”
Association” (sathatya), ४. e., by fully joining together, operates
to accomplish a purpose. We see that works performed jointly
are for another, as in the case of a bed or a chair. The co-
operators (in this case) are the qualities of goodness, foulness,
and darkness, which, modifying in the form of the thinking
principle, jointly work for another, and that ‘‘ another” is soul.
It may be urged that through the force of the example by
which the subservience of another’s purpose by an embodied
stranger, as a bed or a chair or the like, is established, a similar
(embodied) stranger may be proved, but you contemplate an
unembodied “ another,” and, the opposite being proved,your argu-
ment becomes destructive of the object. The reply 18 thus given :
Although in the example pervasion of the premiss has been ac- |
cepted as general in regard to effectuating another’s purpose, yet
on consideration of the specific distinctions of goodness in the
qualified, the distinction will be evident, and the position that the
experiencer is another is established. Thus, as in inferring the
existence of fire in a mountain covered with fuel of a particular
kind from the smoke seen there, the inference that fire is produced
by fuel and is distinct from other fires 18 taken for granted, so here
in inferring that the specific experience called goodness is for an-
other’s purpose. In the same way the experiencing superior is
proved to be another of the form of intelligence and isolated.
Although he appears as the other and the noblest of all, yet the
body is superior to objects resulting from the quality of darkness,
because it is manifest, and the asylum of the organs. _ The organs

200 APIHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

are superior to the body; to them the illuminating quality of
goodness is superior; and he who is the illuminator is distinct
from illumination and of the form of intelligence. How can then
there arise this conjunction 7 (2.¢., there is no actual conjunction
but a mere shadow).

[The explanations given in previous aphorisms still leave the
door-open to the argument that the agency of the soul is
redundant and not wanted. If the thinking principle doubly
modified as above stated is sufficient for conception, why make
the soul the experiencer of worldly joys and sorrows? To this
question the reply given is that, though the thinking principle is
actuated by innumerable desires resulting from the residua of
former works, it nevertheless acts for another’s purpose, and not
for itself, since it acts by the co-operation of many causes, and not
of its own motion. Though there are innumerable residua in it,
they cannot work until external agencies are brought to bear
upon them, and that shows that the thinking principle has no
power of action suo motu. Itis unconscious too, so that it can
have no will of its own. It acts only when it is worked
` upon, and this is indicated by the phrase ^ operates by associa-
tion.” Inasmuch, however, as its action may tend to brine on
liberation which is for the good of the soul, it is to be inferred
that in its other actions it subserves the gratification of that
soul. No line can be drawn between what actions are for the
soul and what are not, and logically what is true for a part, 2. ¢.,
for liberation, must be true for the whole. This idea is expressed
in the Safkhya-kaérika by the verse ‘ generous nature, endued
with qualities, does by manifold means accomplish, without
benefit (to herself), the wish of ungrateful soul, devoid as he is
of qualities,” (Lx). It should be noticed, however, that the
functions which are usually attributed to nature or Prakriti in
the Safikhya are invariably assigned to the thinking principle
(chit¢a) in the Yoga of Patanjali. In fact, in the Yoga system,
chitta plays a more-important part than the Buddhi of Kapila,
and appertains to itself the character both of Buddhi and Pra-
kriti, but the commentator does not mark this distinction. In

CHAPTER FOURTH. 201

his works Kapila frequently refers to Prakriti where Patanjali con-
fines himself to Chitta. The action of the unconscious thinking
principle for another’s purpose is usually explained by the illustra-
tion of the saffron cart, which, unconscious as it is, subserves the
purpose of man by bringing him a desirable condiment. |

He now proceeds to show by ten aphorisms that the fruit of
this philosophy is isolation.

XXIV.

For the knower of the difference there is a cessa-
tion of the idea of self in the thinking principle.

Thus the quality of goodness and soul being proved to be
distinct, whatever idea exists of his self being the thinking prin-
ciple, in him who knows them to be distinct, that is the one is
different from the other, the same surceases, 2. ९., the idea ceases
of the thinking principle being the actor, knower, and experi-
encer.

[Having disposed of all metaphysical questions bearing on
the subject-matter of his work, the author now reverts to the
thesis, how isolation is effected. The metaphysical questions
above set forth, when thoroughly understood, enable a person
to divest himself of the idea that his self or ego is his thinking
principle, and to believe that his soul is the real self. He knows
that the thinking principle is unconscious and not his self. The
idea, in fact, is altogether set at rest, and his soul is so far freed
from the natural wrong belief that the thinking principle is the
ego. |

(To the question) what happens when this takes place, he
says :

XXV.

Then the thinking principle is turned towards dis-
criminative knowledge, and bowed down by the weight
of commencing isolation.

The thinking principle, which was turned outwards by igno-

26 :

202 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI,

rance, to derive the fruit of experiencing worldly objects, deflects
now towards “ discriminative knowledge,” (viveka) 3. e., tarns
inward towards the path of discriminative knowledge, and
18 ^“ bowed down by the weight of coming isolation,” (£aivalya-
pragbhara) i.e., the fruit of isolation, or the commencement of
isolation.

[When the belief aforesaid is effected, the thinking principle
drops the cosmos, and turns inward to the cultivation of dis-
criminative knowledge, and is overpowered by the sense of
isolation which begins to sprout in him.]

Now, by describing the causes of the impediments which occar
in the thinking principle flowing towards discrimination, he
points out the means of overcoming them.

XXVI.

In the intervals thereof other impressions arise
from residua.

“Thereof,” 3. ९., of the thinking principle engaged in medita-
tion. In the “intervals” (chhzdreshu), in the void spaces of
the thinking principle, whatever “ impressions” (16702) or ideas
of the waking (or worldly) state arise, the same proceed from the
now-fading residua of the former waking state, in the forms of
“T,” “mine,” and the like. What is said is that by means of
extirpating the internal organ their avoidance should be effected.

[While isolation is progressing there are opportunities when
ॐ person is not actually engaged in meditation, z. e., during the
breaks in his meditation, for worldly ideas to sprout from the
residua of former existences still clinging to the mind. These
are calculated to disturb the process of isolation, and are so far
impediments, which should be destroyed. ]

He now says that the means of avoidance has already been
explained.

XXVIII.

The avoidance of these should be (the same) as

already described in the case of afflictions,

CHAPTRR FOURTH. 208

The avoidance of these should be effected in the same way in
which the avoidance of afflictions, ignorance, &c., has been
already pointed out (©. II. x—xr). Even as they, scorched by
the fire of knowledge, do not, like roasted seeds, sprout in the
field of the thinking principle, so are the residua, (rendered
infructuose).

[The ideas should be destroyed in the same way as afflictions,
for which provision has been made in a previous part of the
work, (C. II. x—x1).]

He now describes the means by which a Yogi, on his medita-
tion becoming steady by the non-production of other thoughts
in the way aforesaid, may attain excellence.

XXVIII.

On the completion of the series there is produced
the meditation (called) the Cloud of Virtue, even in
the case of the non-aspirant, from the appearance of
constant discrimination.

“On the completion of the series” (prasaffkhydne), t. e.,
after careful contemplation of the nature and respective pecu-
liarities of all the categories arranged in due order. On that being
accomplished even in the case of the “ non-aspirant” (akusida),
or one who does not wish for any fruition, there is produced from
the appearance of constant discrimination, on the cessation of all
foreign thoughts in his thinking principle, the meditation called
the Cloud of Virtue. That which showers (mehati) or irrigates
profusely the virtue (ddarma) which is neither black nor white,
(cf. 1४, vu1,) and which 18 subservient to the attainment of the
summum bonum is the “Cloud of Virtue” (Dkarmamegha) By
this is shown that the highest virtue is the cause of knowledge.

[When the series of works enjoined above for the perfection
of Yoga meditation have been completed, then there arises in
the mind of the performer a meditation called Cloud of Virtue,
which means that all virtues are showered on it, even when

204 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

it does not wish for them. The sense is that though the Yogi
may not wish for any reward, still the reward comes. The word
in the text is akustda, from @ meaning negation and kusida
interest, that is disinterestedly. The theory is that the perfec-
tion of virtue results spontaneously in a person who completes his
Yoga duties as described in the text. ]

He explains next what results from that Cloud of Virtue.

XXIX.

Thence follows the cessation of afflictions and
works.

The meaning 18, that on the manifestation of knowledge, their
antecedent causes being removed, there is a cessation of the
afflictions resulting from ignorance, and of all the works which
are, according as they are white, &c., of three kinds. (श्या).

[The object of the cloud is now described. On its appearance
there results a complete cessation of all afflictions and all works ;
there is no longer any sense of affliction left in the mind of the
Yogi, and he has neither any desire for work, nor any residua of
former works left in his mind. ]

He next explains what happens on this cessation.

XXX.

Then the knowable becomes small from the infinite-
ness of the knowledge free from all coverings and
impurities.

“Coverings” (dvarandui), are those whereby the thinking
principle is covered; they are the afflictions; they are also
impurities. Free fromthem, meansdevoid of them. From the
knowledge (jndza) becoming free, like the sky bereft of cloud,
and ‘from its infiniteness” (dantydt), +. e., from its being
without a break, or all-pervading, ^ the knowable” (jneya) becomes
“small” (a/pa), or fit to be counted or grasped. The meaning
is, that the Yogi can easily know everything.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 905

[The next advantage is that the objects of sense are reduced
toa minimum. Knowledge then becomes limitless and free from
all impurities and coverings or interruptions ; and placed against
such knowledge, knowables or cognizables become insignifi-
eant, 2, ¢., that knowledge which can grasp everything, finds no
difficulty in understanding small matters. Not that there is
a reduction in the number or quantity of cognizables, but, placed
besides limitless knowledge, they, by comparison, become insigni-
ficant. |]

He then states what takes place after this :

XXXI.

Thereupon takes place the termination of the
succession of the modifications of the qualities which
have accomplished their end.

Those which have “ accomplished” (krita), completed, soul’s
purpose or object in the form of experience and emancipation
are called kritdrthah, or those which have accomplished their
end. The “ qualities” (gundh) are goodness, foulness, and dark-
ness. “ Their modifications” (parindma) are their conditions of ex-
istence in relation to each other as members and membered, in a
progressive or a regressive state to the time of the completion of
the purpose of soul. Their “ succession” (krama) is to be presently
described. Its ‘ termination” (parzsamdpt:) is ite finality, i. ¢.,
it does not arise or happen again.

[Proceeding onwards, the next effect of the Yoga is a cessa-
tion of the tendency on the part of the qualities to undergo
change. The qualities are the most active agents in worldly
life, and it is their modifications that produce the various imprese
sions of life, and when they cease to change, there is ipso facto
a cessation of worldly impressions. It is the duty of Prakriti
to minister to the purposes of soul, and as the qualities are
inherent in Prakriti, the qualities may be taken as synonymous
with Prakriti, and those qualities, having done their work, cease

206 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

from labour. The work of the qualities is said to be two-fold ;
they have to minister to soul’s experience of the world, and then
to bring on its emancipation ; and when the state above described
is attained, the qualities have already accomplished both these
works, and, having nothing else left to do, stop work # re the
soul concerned. |

He now describes the succession above referred to.

XXXII.

The succession is the counterpart of the moment
perceptible at the end of the modification.

८८ Moment” (kshana) isa short amount of time. Its ^“ counter-
part” (pratiyogt) is another distinct moment. = ^^ Perceptible at
the end of the modification” means that which is accepted as the
totality after perceiving a number of moments, and this is called
the ‘‘ succession” of moments, for no succession can be perceived
in unperceived succession of moments.

[The word “ succession” (krama) used in A. उका, is explained
in this aphorism to mean the following of one moment after
another. The object is to say that the lapse of time is reckoned
by the succession of one moment after another, though there is
no break between them ; one totality is divided into many parts
only for facility of reckoning. |

He now defines the specific nature of isolation, which is the
result.

XXXIII.

Isolation is the regression of the qualities devoid
of the purpose of soul, or it is the abidance of the
thinking power in its own nature.

“The regression” (pratiprasava) or the non-production of
change on the completion of the regressive (or refluent) modifica-
tion of the (three) qualities, on the accomplishment of soul’s
(two-fold) purpose of experience and emancipation is called
“isolation” (kazvalya) + or, it is the abidance of the thinking

CHAPTER FOURTH. 207

power (soul) solely in its own proper nature, on the cessation
of its identification with intellectual functions (or objects).

(Having described the Yoga in all its details, the author con-
cludes the work by announcing the ultimatum to which it leads.
This ultimatum is kaival/ya, and it is defined to result on the
reabsorption of the triad of qualities in their original cause, on
their having done their duty to soul, or on the abidance of the soul
in its own nature without any association with the qualities ;
that is to say, when it has no longer the thinking principle near
it to cause its shadow to fall thereon.

The commentator does not explain the word kaivalya. The
P. Bhdshya, suggests its meaning by saying “when the
power of intelligence becomes alone, and remains always after
in that state it is hatvalya,” (chiti-Saktireva kevald tasyak
sadd tathaivdvasthanam kaivalamiti). It is the same goal
which the Saéfikhya assigns to its votaries, but it uses,
instead of kaivalya, the word apavarga which, though not radi-
cally synonymous, conveys the same idea, that of liberation
from the trammels of nature. The Sddkhya-kdrika adopts the
term kaivalya, and says, “‘ when separation of the informed soul
from its corporeal frame at length takes place, and nature in
respect of it ceases, then is absolute and final katvalya accom-
plished,’ (v. (डरा). Gaudapdda contents himself by saying,
“ katvalya is the abstract form of kevala,” (kevalabhavat kaiva-
lyam). V&chaspati Mis’ra and Narayana take it to mean
% exemption from the three kinds of pain,” (duhkhatraya-vigamam
duhkhavindsam). The lexicographical meaning of kevala is
‘one,’ ‘alone,’ ‘only,’ and in the derivative form it means,
‘ oneness,’ ‘ singleness,’ ‘ solitariness,’ ‘ exclusiveness,’ or ‘ individu-
ality,’ 3. ¢., deliverance from the association of nature. Cole-
brooke translates it into ‘deliverance,’ and Wilson adds ^ liberation.’
Mr. Davies, in his translation, prefers ‘ abstraction.’ All these may
be resolved into tso/ation, the word used in my version, the idea
being that the soul is freed from all association, material, pheno-
menal, or noumenal.

208 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

The epithets ‘absolute’ (atkdntika) and ‘ final’ (dtyantika)
used in the Safkhya-karika, and the word ‘always,’ (sada) in
P. Bhashya show that this isolation is to last for ever, and no
future association of any kind is possible. To quote Mr. Davies,
‘the soul’s perfect and final deliverance from the bondage of
matter has been gained. No new character can be assumed ;
no birth into any kind of bodily state, even that of the gods,
can follow. The drama of life is ended, and the actors retire
from the stage for ever.”

This eternal quietude of the soul after isolation amounts, in
the opinion of M. Cousin, to ^ mihilisme absolu, dernier fruit
du scepticisme ;” but where existence forms the primary condition
of the theory, nihilism cannot logically and fairly be predicated.
The question is, does the soul exist or not after salvation? and
since the Yoga, like many other schools of philosophy, both Indian
and European, insists that it does, (cf. Safkhya-sutra I, 45,
46,47), there is no room left for a charge of negation against it.
Professor Wilson, following the Indian exegetes, more correctly
explains the case by saying, “it is merely intended as a negation
of the soul’s having any active participation, any individual interest
or property, in human pains, possessions, or feelings.” Professor
Weber, in his ‘ History of Indian literature,’ (pp. 238-9), has
entirely misrepresented the case. He says, “one very peculiar
side of the Yoga doctrine—and one which was more and more
exclusively developed as time went on—is the Yoga practice, that
is, the outward means, such as penances, mortifications, and the
like, whereby this absorption into the supreme Godhead is sought
to be attained.” To those who have attentively read the preceding
pages, it will be obvious, that the idea of absorption into the
Godhead forms no part of the Yoga theory. Indeed, it is diffi-
cult to conceive how so well-read a scholar, as the learned profes-
sor, could have formed this opinion, unless we believe that he
has not read the Yoga, and has borrowed his theory from the
Bhagavadgita, and Puranic and Tantric modifications of Yoga.

CHAPTER FOURTH. 209

Patanjali, like Kapila, rests satisfied with this isolation of the
soul, He does not pry into the how and the where the soul abides
after the separation. This condition of philosophic abstraction,
however, not being satisfactory to worldly-minded people long-
ing for a peaceful hereafter, a necessity arose for the elaboration
of a more concretely blissful scheme, and the modifications above
noticed were offerred by the Purdnics to meet the requirement.
They devised other forms, but those require no description here.
This completes the work; but Bhoja takes this opportunity
to compare the condition of the soul as described in the Yoga
with what other systems propose, and thereby to demonstrate its
superiority. The first is the Buddhist doctrine of momentary

existence. |
Nor is it only in our philosophy that the knower of the field

[of action] in its isolated condition is recognised to exist in this
form of intelligence ; on reflection it will be seen that in other
systems of philosophy also it remains in the same form. Now,
in the worldly condition soul appears as full of agency, experi-
encership, and inquisitiveness; if this one soul, the knower of
the field, be not admitted to be so, then in the absence of all
antecedent and postcedent enquiry in momentary consciousness,
(z. e., believing consciousness to be existent only for the time
being, which cannot look into the past or the future,) there would
be no constant relation between soul and the fruits of works, and
tbe objection would arise of the destruction of that which has
been done, and the coming into existence of that which has not
been done, (४. ¢., no desert would follow works done, and desert
would result from undone work). Acknowledge him to be the
experiencer (of deserts) by whom an act enjoined by the 868४798
is performed, and there will be an inclination on the part of all to
perform works for the acceptance or avoidance of good or evil.
Since all actions characterised by the desire of avoidance or accep-
tance are subject to enquiry ; since there would be an impossibility
for enquiry in the case of mutually distinct moments; (2. ९.) the
27

210 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

moment when one action is done heing distinct from that in which
another action is performed) ; and since in the absence of enquiry
there would arise an impossibility for any kind of action to take
place, it is established that that which is the agent, experiencer,
and enquirer is the soul. In the condition of liberation, there being
an absence of all actions characterised by the idea of the acceptable
and the acceptor, sentience alone remains behind. That sentience
is apparent only as sentience, and not by knowing iteelf, since the
nature of sentience is to perceive objects, and not to perceive
itself. Further, when an object is perceived by the thinking
power, the idea is “this” (ayam), and when the identity of
that power is to be implied, the idea is “I” (akam). Two
such mutually discordant actions, characterised as the profluent
and the refluent are, cannot be achieved simultaneously, and
since the two actions cannot be performed at the same time, soul
remains as sentience only. Hence it is reasonable (to believe)
that in the liberated condition, when the qualities are defunct,
soul remains solely as sentience. In the mundane condition
agency, percipiency, inquisitiveness arise in regard to that soul.
Besides, there is a relation between Prakriti and soul, which is
that of experience and experiencer; it is natural, and existe
from time without a beginning. It is due to the prevalence of
want of right notion. And that being the case, in the presence
of the two powers for the advancement, of the object of soul,
(cf. IV, xx11), all modifications in the form of Mahat and others
take place. And since the power of the soul as the supreme
agent, and of casting its quality of sentience on the thinking
principle, and that of experiencing the result of the conjunction
of that reflection, proceed from conjunction (with Mahat), and
since the consciousness of agency and experiencership of the intel-
lect proceeds from the influence of sentience on the intellect, and
consequently of the conduct of all enquirable actions, what use is
there in other unprofitable agglomeration of fallacies ?

[Bhoja does not say that the theory he combats is due to the

CHAPTER FOURTH. 211

_ Buddhists, but the dogma of momentary consciousness was
prevalent among the Madhyamikas, and hence I infer that he
means the Buddhists. The theory is, that all things are momen-
tary, and their cognition is also momentary, produced by the
concatenation of complements of unconscious causes, without a
permanent intellectual back-ground, (4 Cowell and Gough’s
Sarvadarsana-safigraka, p. 15). It is refuted by the allegation,
that such consciousness could not be made subject to moral
responsibility. The consciousness that would perform an action
now, would have no relation to the one that had acted before, or to
that which would act in the future, and the responsibility of the one
could not be transferred to another. There could be no such idea as
ego, for the ego of one cognition would not be the ego of another,
and yet as ego is the basis of cognition and consciousness, no
theory can be valid which repudiates that. There could be under
such circumstance no incentive to, nor necessity for, moral action.
A permanent individual consciousness is unavoidable, and that is
found in the thinking principle enlivened by a reflection of soul. |

Again, if, rejecting this course, it be accepted that agency is
soul’s essential attribute, then arises the admission of its being
subject to modifications, and as modifications are non-eternal or
temporal, its character as soul is destroyed. Nor can perception
of mutually different conditions be effected in one form at the
same time; and accordingly, in the condition in which soul is
perceived associated with some produced pleasure, can the
condition of pain be perceived. Thus the conditions being
various, the conditioned must likewise be various, and from
variety and modificability there can be neither spirituality nor
eternity, (४. ¢., that which is modifiable cannot also be eternal
or spiritual, and eternity and spirituality are essential attributes
of soul). Hence it is that those Safikhyas who believe ina
peaceful Brahma, acknowledge soul to remain in the same form
both in the mundane and the liberated conditions.

[This is apparently the theory of the Vais‘es’uikas, who believe

912 APHORISMS OF PATANJALI.

soul to be the real actor. The objection to this theory is that
action implies change, and if soul be the real actor, it would
be subject to change. The idea of change, however, is, in the
opinion of Patanjali, incompatible with the spirituality and
eternity of soul ; it would cease to be soul if it were changeable like
material objects, and therefore this theory is not tenable. ]

The theory of the Vedantists, who believe liberation to be
that condition of soul in which it is solely sentience and Joy,
is not correct. Joy being the identity of pleasure, and pleasure
being manifested by perceptables, and perceptibility not being
produced without perception, the doctrine of unity is destroyed
by the admission of the two, the perceptible and the perception.
Again, their saying of cognition itself being the joyous soul
would be prejudiced by the incompatibility of two antagonistic
qualities abiding together. Perception and perceptable cannot
fitly be called one. Again, soul is said by the non-dualists to be
of two kinds, the working or conditioned and the unconditioned
orsupreme. But if you admit that form in which the working
soul becomes the experiencer of pleasure and pain, to be also the
form in which it exists as the supreme soul, then the supreme
soul becomes, like the working soul, subject to modifications, and
pertain, the nature of ignorance. If it be said that the ex-
periencership is not direct, but accepted as a present (by the
soul) while remaining as a neutral superior, the case would be the
same as in our system of philosophy.

The assumption about the joyous form (of soul) has already
been refuted. It may be added that if soul be admitted
to be of the character of ignorance, there would be no seperate
existence left for working souls, and which should then be the
object of philosophy? Certainly not the unconditioned soul, for
it is eternally free; nor the working soul, for it is (admitted to
be) of the character of ignorance, and thus will result the falsi-
fication of all systems of philosophy. I£ the creation be admitted
to consist of ignorance, the question would arise, whose igno-
rance is it? It cannot be that of the supreme soul, for it is

CHAPTER FOURTH. 213

eternally free, and of the form of knowledge. It cannot be of
the working soul, for that being without a seperate existence,
how can it be connected with ignorance? It would be like the
admission of horns of a hare (a mere fiction). It might be said
that the ignorance of ignorance consists 10 its not being the sub-
ject of demonstration by argument. It may, like the dew on the
earth with the rays of the sun (playing on it), melt away under
ratiocination, and yet it may beignorance. This, however, cannot
be. Whatever does something must be distinct from, or identical
with, something else, and since the agency of ignorance in the
development of the universe must be admitted, and admitting
it, if ignorance be indeterminate, then nothing whatever will be
determinate ; even Brahma itself will be liable to be put down
as indeterminate, (but if it be described to be determinate, it will
cease to be ignorance). It follows then that the form of soul
cannot be other than that of a supervisor. This supervisorship
is mere sentience only, for there is no evidence of its having any
other quality.

(The Vedantic doctrine is refuted on two grounds ; Ist, because
it involves a duality which the Vedantists themselves repudiate ;
2nd, it makes soul liable to be affected by ignorance, thereby
destroying its absolute purity, and if we admit that soul may be
involved in ignorance then it will become indeterminate, and
there would be no certainty about anything. |

It is alleged by the Naiy4yikas and others that soul is sentient,
because it becomes so by contact with sentience, and that sentience
is produced by the union of soul with its mind. They say that
desire, knowledge, exertion and other attributes are produced by
the contact of soul during its working condition with mind,
and through those qualities, the soul knows itself to be the
knower, the agent, and the experiencer. In the state of libera-
tion (01864), when false notions are suppressed on the suppres-
sion of the residua (doska) which are produced by them, there
results an absolute annihilation of the specific attributes, know-

ledge, &c., and soul is acknowledged to reside in its own
essential form. This, however, 18 not 8 correct assumption, for
what would you accept to be the peculiar soulness of the soul
in that condition? (You cannot urge that pervasion, immensity,
and eternity are its constituents, for) the qualities of pervasion
and the rest pertain to ether and others, and to differentiate it
from them, some determinate form must have to be admitted.
You may say that the specific character of soul is its own
speciality (or kind to which it belongs). But this cannot be
urged, for such speciality exists in all things, (४, e., everything
has its specific distinction as a particular kind). It is necessary,
therefore, to admit some other differentiation of the soul, apart
from speciality, and this can be effected by admitting its super-
visorship, from its being of the form of sentience, and in no
other way.

As to what is believed by the Mimfiisakas about soul being
both worker and work, the position is not tenable. They
believe that soul is indicated by the use of the word I, and
by the use of I, both the agency and the objectivity of soul
are included, (४. ¢., soul is the ego, and nothing else can be ego,
and the soul being the ego, the ego must include both soul and
work, for in knowing the soul work must appear to be soul and no
other). But this cannot result, because they are of contradictory
natures. Agency implies him who measures, while work means
that which is to be measured or proved, and the assumption
of these two antagonistic qualities cannot be effected in one at
the same time. When two antagonistic qualities are assumed,
then there can be no unity, as positive and negative, and so are
agency and objectivity antagonistic. Should it be said there is
no antagonism between agency and objectivity, but there is
between agency and instrumentality, we deny it, because the
assumption of antagonistic qualities is the same (in either case).
Rejecting then the theory of perceivable by the use of I, we hold
the soul’s supervisorship as proved, and thence its sentienceness.

CHAPTER FOURTH. - 215

The theory of those who hold soul to be finite, defined by
the body, and mutable, because it is reckoned among matter,
tumbles down as soon as it is started. By the admission of
mutability, the sentience form of soul is destroyed, and in the
absence of its seutience form, how can there be any spirituality
in soul? Hence those who desire to uphold the spirituality
of soul must admit ite sentience form, and that is its supervisor-
ship. |

[This is the theory of the Arhatas or Jains. (^ Cowell and
Gough’s Sarvadarsana-safigraka. |

Some fancy soul to be of the form of the actor. They
believe that the action of knowing, which results in the presence
of a perceptible object, has for its fruit the cognition of that
object; and in that cognition as the fruit, the true form of
soul, being of the form of illumination, becomes manifest ;
and objects being perceptible, the soul becomes the perceptor ; for
it is produced in some such form as “I know the pot,” (in
which “ I” is the perceptor, “ know” 18 the cognition of the form
of illumination, and the “ pot” is the perceptible object). The
_ cause of action is for certain the actor, and therefore actorship and
experiencership constitute the form of soul. This, however, is
inconsistent. (If cognitions be the root),—the question arises, Does
the actorship of those cognitions arise simultaneously, or succes-
sively? If you say, that the actorship is simultaneous, then its
actorship shall cease a moment after. If you say, it happens
successively, it cannot be predicated of that which is uniform,
(z.¢., soul). If you say the actorship of soul is effected always
in one or the same form, then that one form being always pre-
sent, all fruits would become of one form. If the actorship be
multiform, then there would be mutability, and there being
mutability, there can be no form of sentienceness. It follows
that those who believe in soul’s sentienceness, should not main-
tain its direct actorship. The way in which the actorship of the
uniform, eternal, sentient soul is proved by us, is the most con-
sistent.

216 APHORISMS OF PATANIJALI.

Those who by such arguments maintain that the self-manifest
soul becomes the perceptor through the cognition of objects, will
find their refutation by the same line of argument.

Some hold that the reasoning (vimarsa) form of soul is its
sentience form, (४. ¢., its sentience is no other than its reasoning
power). They say that the sentience form of soul cannot be
ascertained without reasoning; the sentience form is said to be
distinct from the inert, and without reasoning it cannot be
defined, and without reasoning, there is nothing left behind.
This is, however, untenable. Reasoning is the discussion which
has the form of “ this, thus, and so,” (४. e., every process of
ratiocination involves the assumption of something like this, this
is, this 18 not, thus it 18, thus it is not, it 18 so, it is not so, and
without them there can be no reasoning,) and that cannot arise
without egoism (or consciousness), and when reasoning is brought
to bear on soul it is brought into cognition in the form “I am
of this form,” and thus the soul, the subject of discussion, being
brought to light by the word I, no advance is made beyond
a fancy, and fancy is a form of conviction, which is the function
of the intellect, and not of sentience. But as sentience, uniform
and eternal, remains always in one shape, there can be no
entrance of egotism into it. It follows then, that this assumption
of reasoning in the soul is a mistaken assumption of the intellect
for soul, and not a knowledge of the identity of the self-manifest
soul, the great soul.

Thus in no system of philosophy can the form of soul be
ascertained by any means, without admitting its supervisor-
ship. Supervisorship implies sentience form, which is distinct
from inertness. Because it exists supervising in the form of
sentience, therefore it derives the quality of experience (in
objects), and that which is supervised by sentience becomes fit
for worldly usage. And such being the case, other systems of
philosophy, if they decline to accept what we have said about
the isolation of soul as resulting on the cessation of the
functions of Prakriti after it has accomplished its duty have no

resource. It has, therefore, rightly been said that isolation is the
abidance of the sentient power in its own form after with-
drawing its shadow from. all functions.

treated of in this chapter on isolation. [Only the substance of
the commentary has been given here, for reasons explained before. ]

received on the crowns of their diadems, by kings prostrate
at his feet in acts of service and salutation, the lotus of whose
mouth having been attained by the goddess of speech, she
became uncommonly proud, even he, the auspicious Bhoja, lord of
the earth, composed these notes on the aphorisms of the lord of
serpents.

tion, of the commentary entitled Réjamartanda, on Patanjali’s
Institutes of the Yoga, by the great king, the superior king,
