TB - 25 kAraNa SarIra explanation..
कारण शरीरं किम्?अनिर्वाच्य अनादि अविद्या रूपं शरीर द्वयस्य कारण मात्रं सत्स्वरूप अज्ञानं निर्विकल्पकरूपं यत् अस्ति तत कारणशरीरम्|
कारण शरीरं किम्?.. So far, the guru has defined the gross body and subtle body. What is left is kAraNa SarIram or the causal body.. And the student properly asks about the causal body.. now the guru defines the causal body.. Please pay close attention to what the guru says.. this statement is what distinguishes our scriptures from the rest of the bunches..!! AND IT IS ENTIRELY BASED ON SRTHI..
अनिर्वाच्य .. that which is indefinable
अनादि .. that which is beginning less.. GURU NEVER SAYS "ENDLESS".!! this means that kAraNa body can be ended.. as the scriptures show later with proper guru and gnAnam..
अविद्या रूपं .. that which is the very essence of ignorance..(or avidhyA, or mAyA, or, mithyA.. these terms will be used exactly as needed in the proper context by our scriptures)
शरीर द्वयस्य कारण मात्रं .. that which alone causes the two bodies, gross and subtle, to come into being..
सत्स्वरूप अज्ञानं .. that whose essential nature is to hide the knowledge of the truth about oneself..
निर्विकल्पकरूपं .. that which stays in an undifferentiated form (this is actually what makes all of identical in the avyaktha or the nmanifest satage)
यत् अस्ति .. that which exists in the manner defined above,
तत कारणशरीरम् . that is causal body.
Thus the causal body is what creates the samsAram experienced by all of us.. it creates the gross body as palace where pleasure and pain can be experience, ti creates teh subtle body which is able to cognize the world around us and make us judge "this is good for me, I like it and thus it is enjoyable.." or equally creates an aversion in us regarding the opposite..
So if we stop to think about what has been said so far, all of us the way we know ourselves to be have been defined so perfectly.. I AM A DOER.. I AM AN ENJOYER.. I AM A KNOWER.. I AM A MORTAL.. AND I AM LIMITED.. WELCOME, SAMSARIS
