The Sarva-Darsana-Samgraha: Or, Review of the Different Systems of Hindu Philosophy
Madhava
Philosophy, Hindu; Philosophy, Indic
[Footnote 388: _Chit-śakti_ and _chiti-śakti_ = soul.]
[Footnote 389: The _sattva_ of the _buddhi_ or the internal organ.]
[Footnote 390: This second substance, "mind" or "understanding"
(_buddhi_, _chitta_), is like a looking-glass, which reflects the
image of the object on a second looking-glass (_sc._ soul).]
[Footnote 391: Váchaspati explains _lakshaṇa_ as _kálabheda_.]
[Footnote 392: I take _ádi_ as meaning _asphuṭatva_. The change of state
takes place between the several moments of the _lakshaṇa-pariṇáma_. Cf.
the Commentaries on iii. 13.]
[Footnote 393: These are generally called the five states of the
thinking principle, _chittabhúmayas_ or _avasthás_. Cf. Commentary, i.
2, 18.]
[Footnote 394: These three conditions respectively characterise men,
demons, and gods.]
[Footnote 395: Much of this is taken from Bhoja's Commentary, and I
have borrowed Ballantyne's translation.]
[Footnote 396: Can _chitta_ mean "soul" here?]
[Footnote 397: _I.e._, as, _e.g._, whether the senses produce the
elements or the elements the senses, &c.]
[Footnote 398: In p. 164, line 4 _infra_, read _sukhaprakáśamayasya_.]
[Footnote 399: In p. 164, line 2 _infra_, read _sattámátra_ for
_sattva-_. Bhoja well distinguishes _asmitá_ from _ahaṃkára_.]
[Footnote 400: For these see _infra_, and cf. Yoga S., ii. 3, 12, 13.]
[Footnote 401: I have ventured to alter the examples, to suit the
English translation.]
[Footnote 402: Where the negation is prominent it is called
_prasajya-pratishedha_; but where it is not prominent, we have the
_paryudása_ negation. In the former the negative is connected with the
verb; in the latter it is generally compounded with some other word,
as, _e.g._--
(a.) "Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note."
(b.) "Unwatched the garden bough shall sway."
The former corresponds to the logician's _atyantábháva_, the latter to
_anyonyábháva_ or _bheda_.]
[Footnote 403: Cf. the _várttika_ in Siddhánta Kaum., i. 401.]
[Footnote 404: Thus _adhana_ stands for _avidya-mánadhana_, with
_vidyamána_ omitted in the compound.]
[Footnote 405: As its subject would confessedly be _buddhi_.]
[Footnote 406: As it is _avidyá_ after all.]
[Footnote 407: In p. 165, lines 16, 17, read (with my MS. of Váchaspati's
Gloss), _sarvavṛittinirodhasampannáyá api tathátvaprasaṅgát_.]
[Footnote 408: I read _tanvavastháścha_ with the printed edition of
Váchaspati's Gloss. If _tanudagdháścha_ is correct, it must mean
_tanutvena dagdháh_.]
[Footnote 409: As in _rámalakshmaṇau_, Ráma and Lakshmaṇa.]
[Footnote 410: I read _pakshatraye_ for _pakshadvaye_.]
[Footnote 411: In his Comm. on Sút., ii. 5.]
[Footnote 412: Thus _inimicus_ is not a "friend," nor, on the other
hand, a "non-friend," but something positive, an "enemy." So
_agoshpada_ is said to mean "a forest."]
[Footnote 413: Cf. Yoga Sút., i. 8.]
[Footnote 414: In p. 166, line 4 _infra_, read _káyádau_ for
_káryádau_.]
