mahA vAkya vichAram TB-64

एवं च जीवेश्वरयो चैतन्यरूपेणाऽभेदे बाधकाभावः |TB-64|

Evam cha jeeva Ishvarayo: chaitanya rUpENa abhEdE bAdhaka abhAva:

Now samkRtam gets a bit tough and this is where a basic understanding of the language is a must for communication..!



Evam cha = In this manner..

jeeva Ishvarayo: = between the jeeva and Ishvara

chaitanya rUpENa = (oneness exists) in the form of consciousness..

abhEdE = NO DIFFERRENCE EXISTS BETWEEN THE TWO..

bAdhaka =(this oneness based on consciousness when understood clearly), ALL THE OBSTACLES (to appreciate bramhan in one's buddhi or intellect)

abhAva: = diasppear..

If you can see the all the words supplied in brackets by me, which is NOT said in the statement explicitely.. but only IMPLICITELY.. and that is really the beauty as well as hed ache of samskRtam..!

Here the guru has explained in great detail the confusion of the disciple, how he came to the guru seeking knowledge (implied, of course) and then the guru starts from the conclusion at the very beginning.. LIKE BIG BANG.!

There are only two entities in creation.. one is the satya vastu AtmA.. the rest is the anitya vastu, mithyA vastu anAtmA..!

But what we encounter 24 7 is anAtmA only.. that too in MOR.. and within this only we have to recognize the satya vastu AtmA.

So the guru systematically unfolds the three bodies.. gross, subtle and causal.. then the various states of our existence.. waking, dream, and sleep. then another view at ourselves from the view point of five koshas.. then how the sRShTi came about by bramhan using the mAyA shakti.. and then the five subtle elements.. and five gross elements.. and what part of jeeva was created from what aspect of which element..!

So guru does not leave anything to our imagination.. and every one of his word is NOT his personal logic and imagination but based on vedas and upanishats.. so the guru uses veda alone as the 6th means of knowledge.. THAT IS SO IMPORTANT.

and finally HE shows JEEVA as ISHVARA.. BY IDENTIFYING WHY & WHY NOT
