10. That state of the soul, which is devoid of its sense of egoism and destitute of its knowledge of dualism, and its distinction from the state of the one universal soul, and shines forth with its unsleeping intelligence, is said to be at rest in itself or _swarúpa_. 11. But this state of the pure and self-intelligent soul, is obscured by the various states of ignorance, whose grounds you will now hear me relate unto you. These are the three states of wakefulness or _jágrat_, known as the embryonic waking (or _vijajágrat_), the ordinary waking, and the intense waking called the _mahajágrat_. (_i.e._ the hypnotism or hybernation of the soul, being reckoned its intelligent state, its waking is deemed as the ground of its ignorance, and the more is it awake to the concerns of life, the more it is said to be liable to error). 12. Again the different states of its dreaming (swapnam or somnum), are also said to be the grounds of its ignorance and these are the waking dream, the sleeping dream, the sleepy waking and sound sleep or _sushupti_. These are the seven grounds of ignorance. (Meaning hereby, all the three states of waking, dreaming and sound sleep (_jágrat_, _swapna_ and _sushupta_), to be the grounds fertile with our ignorance and error). 13. These are the seven-fold grounds, productive of sheer ignorance, and which when joined with one another, become many more and mixed ones, known under different denominations as you will hear by and by. 14. At first there was the intelligent Intellect (Chaitanya Chit), which gave rise to the nameless and pure intelligence Suddha-Chit; which became the source of the would-be mind and living soul. 15. This intellect remained as the ever waking embryonic seed of all, wherefore it is called the waking seed (Vijajágrat); and as it is the first condition of cognition, it is said to be the primal waking state. 16. Now know the waking state to be next to the primal waking intelligence of God, and it consists of the belief of the individual personality, of the _ego_ and _meity_,—aham and mama; _i.e._ this am I and these are mine by chance—prág-abháva. (The first is the knowledge of the impersonal soul, and the second the knowledge of personal or individual souls). 17. The glaring or great waking—mahajágrat, consists in the firm belief that I am such a one, and this thing is mine, by virtue of my merits in this or by-gone times or _Karman_. (This positive knowledge of one’s self and his properties, is the greatest error of the waking man). 18. The cognition of the reality of any thing either by bias—rudhádhyása or mistake—arudha, is called the waking dream; as the sight of two moons in the halo, of silver in shells, and water in the mirage; as also the imaginary castle building of day dreamers. 19. Dreaming in sleep is of many kinds, as known to one on his waking, who doubts their truth owing to their short-lived duration (as it was in the dreaming of Lavana).
