18. Because of wishing, the Anandamaya is not Pradhana. — 18.

COMMENTARY

In the Taittiriya Upanishad (ll, 6. 5) we find, ‘…’ «He wished — may I be many, may I grow forth». Thus creation proceeds by the more wish (Kama) of the Anandamaya. Now, according to Samkhya, Prakriti is non-sentient, and can have no Kamana or wish. Therefore, the Anandamaya, with regard to which the word Kama is used, can not be Prakriti.

SUTRA I. 1. 19.

अस्मिन्नस्य च तद्योगं शास्ति॥१.१.१९॥

asminnasya ca tadyogaṃ śāsti ..1.1.19..

… Asmin, in him, in the person called Anandamaya. Asya, his, of the Jiva. Cha, and. a Tat, that, (fearlessness) ….. Yogam, union. … Shasti, teaches ‘Shruti).

19. The Anandamaya is not Pradhana, for the additional reason that the Shruti teaches two-fold Yoga of the Jiva with it — 19.

COMMENTARY

When a Jiva is fully devoted to this Being of Bliss, he obtains fearlessness; while if he is not fully devoted, he is mot with terror. For so says the Shruti (Taitt., Up., II., 7. 2):

When he finds freedom from fear, and rest in that which is Invisible, Incorporeal, Undefined, Unsupported, then he has obtained the Fearless. For if he makes but the smallest separation from It, there is fear for him. But that fear exists only for one who thinks himself wise, (not for the true sage).

This teaching has no bearing with regard to Pradhana, for according to Samkhya, it is the separation from Pradhana that gives fearlessness, while it is union with Pradhana which is the cause of bondage and all fear. Thus pradhana has all the attributes diametrically opposed to those of the Anandamaya; for union with the Anandamaya produces fearlessness, while the slightest separation from Him, is the cause of all fear. Thus it has been established that the Saviour Hari alone is the Anandamaya, etc., and neither Jiva nor Prakriti is so.
