Guest guest Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Reading an Englich edition of the commentary of Baladeva on Brahma sutra, I came upon the verse below, found in Pada 3, Sutra 43; Adhikarana 18 after the sutras: mantra-varnat / api smaryate This verse appears: anur nityo vyapti-silas cid-anandatmakas tatha aham artho 'vyayah saksi bhinna-rupah sanatanah "The soul is atomic, eternal, is present by consciousness everywhere in the material body, is by nature full of spiritual bliss and knowledge, has a sense of individual identity, is unchanging, is a witness within the body, is eternal, and is different from the Supreme." - Padma Purana Tarun, can you give me a translation of this. Best you can. And if you have Baladeva's commentary there can you check to see if this verse is in your edition. ta very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 bhinna-rUpah sanAtanaH can b interpreted several ways. Soul is distinct from body = rUpa = external form. Indeed, perhaps PrabhupAd's most repeated instructed may b extracted herefrom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 The verse is found at 4-4-01 It is in the translation of the text for the sutra "Sampadyavirbhavadhikaranam" ie: the liberated soul does not acquire anything new but only manifests its essential or true nature Can I ask, if you have a tranlation of the Govinda Bhasya of Brahmasutra, whose translation is it? I am looking at the English translation by Bhakti Caitanya Swami, but Yati Maharaj of the Yogapith in Mayapura has also just published his English translation of Brahma sutra.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 Bhakti Chaitanya Swami is in ISKCON? Is he externally from MahAraSTra? Is ZrIpAd Yati Mhrj still at Yoga-pith & Chaitanya Math? Although the latter made some extremely contraversial comments, I learned in Vraj: "It is not our position to criticize him. I can show you my post aparAdha scars to prove it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
