Sri Sanath Sujatheeyam – Sri Mahabharath
– Sri Shankarabhashyam
Chapter – 4 – Bhashyam – 4 - The indestructible Purusha and destructible Prakrithi
Rishi Sanathkumara speaks “Oh! Rajan, the
Jeeva who is drenched in Avidhya believes the ‘Mrithyu’/death is real; hence
they perform Vedic Karma to achieve Amaraththva/long life. In the same manner,
the Jeeva drenched in Vishayavisham/interest in material matters and bondage is
considered as toxic poison, becomes blind without the knowledge of Moksha which
is free from the interest in the worldly matters and afflictions, Moksha is
Nirvishaya, and the ignorant Jeeva highly praises the Amarathva.”
“Oh! Gauthama, it is highly fortune to
become Srigala/Vriksha in the sacred land of Vrindavan, instead of achieving
Moksha which is the state of Nirvishaya.”
Sanathkumara speaks “ Oh! Rajan, The
knowledge of that supreme Bhramam which has no dual forms, and the practice of
Gnanakarma would provide that Amrithaththva/immortality. The Athmajjyani who have experienced the
state of supreme bliss, and Adhvatheeyadharshi, envision that all-pervasive
Bramham, oneness-in all, hence he affirms that there is no Mrithyu. Oh! Rajan,
I shall explain about the two categories of Jeeva 1) ignorant drenches in
worldly matters and bondages due to Avidhya, the Vishayavishandha who is completely
soaked in the Vishaya/worldly matters and pleasure, and becomes blind due to
the overindulge in the deadly poison of worldly matters. Oh! Rajan, Visayasukha
is the toxic poison that makes the Jeeva blind, it removes the Vivechanashakthi, the
knowledge about good and evil. Oh! Rajan
2) The Vishayavyathireka/ Jeeva capable to differentiate which is good and bad,
and have a lack of interest in Vishaya/interest in worldly matters and
bondage is Athmajjyani/ Mumukshu, achieves Amaraththva/immortality with the
constant practice of meditation and contemplation upon the supreme Lord. These
Athmajjyani with the knowledge of all-pervasive, eternal, changeless Bhramam,
performs all the deeds and surrender to that supreme Bhramam, in this way they
achieve Amrithaththvam. The ‘Adhvatheeya Vedanthi’ envisions that supreme
Bramham resides as a soul in living beings, and constantly meditate upon the
all-pervasive Bhramam, affirms “Yekamevadhvatheeyam Bhrama”, hence the Athman
is Nithya/eternal, changeless, free from afflictions, and death. Hence the
concept of Nirvishaya and Adhvaithavedanthi are not different, I shall describe
them too.”
Sage Sanathkumara speaks “Oh! Kshatriya,
Oh! Kshathriyapradhana, these two concepts ‘Mrithyu/ignorance and Amrithyu/wisdom’
are exists from the beginning of the Universe. Pramadham is Mrithyu/mortality
and Apramadham is Amritham/immortality. The Mrithyu is the ignorance about the
all-pervasive Bhramam which has neither birth nor death, eternal, changeless,
and free from afflictions. The
Apramadha/Amrithaththva is the knowledge of the all-pervasive supreme Bhramam
and Oneness-in-all and the destructible nature of Prakrithi.”
