Guest guest Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Dear Asthikas This is the second set of loudthinking 1.Sattva---------goodness,the quqlity of goodness 2.Rajas---------the quality of passion 3.Tamas---------the quality of darkness 4.Avyakta------state of primordial nature that immediately procceds the evolution of various constituent elements or Tattvas of the Universe 5.Tattvas---(descending order) Pradhana or Prakriti-----nature 2. Mahat or Buddhi---the great principle 3. Ahankara----egoity The notion of egoity is held to be due to the association of this intelligent principle with Prakriti. Primordial Prakriti is held to give rise to Mahat(great principle) called Buddhi perhaps for the reason that the cognisability of the external world by the Purusha is due to it. Out of Mahat is evolved the principle known as Ahankara, which is a kind of " mind-stuff " responsible for sense of egoity and for the production of senses and the mind The Tanmatras or the subtle and rudimentary elements characterised by 4.Sabda--sound 5.Sparsa--touch 6.Rupa--form of colour 7. Rasa--taste 8. Gandha--smell The grosser elements corresponding to these Tanmatras are 9.Akasa---ether 10. Vayu---air 11.Tejas--light or heat 12. Ap----water 13.Prithivi----earth 14. the Mind---the senses 15.Srotra---hearing 16.Tvak---touch 17.Chakshus---sight 18. Rasa---taste 19.Gandha--smell And the organs of 20.Speaking 21. Working 22.Walking And the organs connected with 23.defeaecation 24. reproduction The 25 th element is the individual soul, which is beyond the Prakriti, in the ascending order The Vedantins add the Mahapurusha as 26th tattva above and beyond the individual soul 6.Prakriti or nature--four different nature Avibhakta-tamas-primary undifferentiate state Vibhakta-tamas--first differentiated state Akshara--even the qualities of sattva, rajas, and tamas are not seen to be differentiated and inwhich it is also said to be promiscuously mixed up with the individual self Avyakta last state inwhich the differentiation of the three gunas has begun to take place. From this Avyakta proceeds the principle known as Mahat and from this the principle called Ahankara or egoity and so on The lights are Sri Hayagreevan The worlds are Sri Hayagreevan The forests are Sri Hayagreevan THe mountains, the regions of space, the rivers and the seas, all that is existent and all that is non-existent are all Sri Hayagreevan( tb be contd) I prostrate before Sri Hayagreeva several innumerable times to bless and to get the Mahamandap completed soon .
