I have just uploaded the file ‘jnana yoga.doc’

to the folder ‘Advaita for the Novice – 2007’ (?) and also

added a page at my website - http://www.advaita.org.uk/discourses/definitions/jnana_yoga.htm.

 

 

I have also added part 27 of Sri Sadananda’s series

on vedAnta paribhAshA – “The position of vishiShTAdvaita”. http://www.advaita.org.uk/discourses/knowledge/vishishtadvaita.htm

This corresponds with the conclusion of Part 12 as originally posted to the

group. As before, please let me know if you find any errors in my

transcription/editing – I found this part particularly difficult!

 

Best Wishes,

Dennis

Dennis - PraNams.

 

Looks good to me. Just for clarification.

SamaanaadhikaraNa is used both by advaita and vishiShTaadvaita. According to

advaita the samaanaadhikaraNa comes with reference to cause and effect. Effect

is nothing but cause itself in different form (and name).

For vishiShTaadvaita the samaanaadhikaraNa is between the visheShaNa and

visheShya - the attribute and the substantive - since the two are inseparable.

 

However in identifying the jiiva as the attribute of the Lord in

vishiShTaadvaita, samaanaadhikaraNa is only in terms of the oneness of the

indwelling parabhramha (antaryamin)in jiiva, and that is the identity involved

in tat tvam asi - not the identity in all respects since jiiva has organic

relation with paramaatma - jiiva is just one organ of the totality. Individual

qualities of the jiiva do not belong to paramaatma - therefore one has to do

bhaaga tyaaga here also as the above referenced post indicates.

 

 

Hari Om!

Sadananda
