SUTRA II. 3. 46.

अनुज्ञापरिहारौ देहसम्बन्धाज्ज्योतिरादिवत्॥२.३.४६॥

anujñāparihārau dehasambandhājjyotirādivat ..2.3.46..

… Anujna, permission (to do good or bad deeds). Hence activity. … Pariharau, exclusion, cessation from activity (i e., Mukti or Release). … Dehasambandhat, on account of connection with a body … Jyotiradivat, as in the case of light and so on. The word ‘Jyotih’ means ‘eye’.

46. In the case of the Jivas, there is wordly activity or cessation therefrom (Release), on account of their connection with bodies, but not so in the case of the Avataras. The Jivas are like light in the eye (depending for its vision upon the activity or cessation of the light of the sun). — 264.

COMMENTARY

Though the Jiva is an Amsha of the Lord, yet on account of its connection with Avidya from beginningless time, and on account of its connection with a body, it is under the control of the Lord, and with regard to it we find texts declaring permission and exclusion. But no such control by the Lord is related with regard to the Avataras like Fish and the rest On the other hand, they are described as the Lord and as uninfluenced by their bodies which they assume. Thus there is a great difference between the Avataras and the Jivas.

The word permission means inciting a person to do good deeds, as we find in the Kaushitaki Upanishad, that the Lord makes him whom he wants to raise up do good deeds, etc. (Kaushitaki, III., 8.)

The word exclusion means cessation from work (good or bad), hence Mukti, as we find in the texts «knowing Him one transcends death».

As an illustration of this, the author says, «It is like light and the rest» The word ‘light’ here means ‘eye’ or the power of vision. As the eye, though a part of the sun, is yet manifold on account of its relation with the various bodies, and as it depends for its activity on the permission of the sun, and ceases to]be active when the sun does not permit it; in other words, the vision depends on the presence or absence of the light of the sun, so the Jivas depend for their activity or release on the permission or will of the Lord. But the Avataras are parts of the Lord, like the rays of the sun which are identical with the sun, and can never be excluded from the sun, and do not depend upon any permission or exclusion of the sun. Thus there is a vast difference between the Jivas and the Avataras.
