BRAHMA SUTRA
SAMANVAYA ADHYAYA – CHAPTER 1
JIJNASADHIKARANAM – SUTRA 1
“Athhatho Brahmajijnasa” – 1.1.1
athha: now, then, afterwards;
atho: therefore; (It is Not ‘atah’, as in Sivananda Translation)
Brahmajijnasa: a desire, curiosity for the real knowledge of Creator
Sanskirt – The Language Of Gods – is the most flexible language, You can easily interpret even exactly opposite assumptions from the same shlokas… Just like an equally old but picto language like Sumerian (Language Of The Lesser Gods)…
Thus; The Eternal Conflict Between Saankhýã & advàithã…
||| Sankara Bhashyam Literal Meaning:
Now, Therefore, The Enquiry Into Brahman…
Discussion: “So; The time has come to discuss about Desire To Know Brahman…”
||| alternate Meanings Used BY ME For Brahma Manana Yaj?a :
athha : Then, Certainly, afterwards, But, auspicious, else, Moreover, What ? (In Context), Rather, How Else, Then?, Thereupon, after This, also, More…
atho : Next, Likewise, Now…
1) athha~atho Brahmajijnasa:
Then Only The Discussion about Brahman… after The Curiosity arises…
Discussion: Brahmajijnasu are the only people qualified to be taught the Secret knowledge of Brahman…
2) athha atho Brahmajijnasa:
Then, Next arises The Desire To Know Brahman…
Discussion: as for Rama in YogaVasiShta, the longing for eternal knowledge arises only after the stages of attachment, pain, suffering & understanding…
3) athha, atho Brahmajijnsa:
Definitely, Then Desire For The Eternal Would Bubble Up In The Fortunate…
Discussion: In a person with the required qualities specified in upanishads, there would definitely arise the curiosity of the unknown & eternal…
4) athha; atho Brahmajijnasa ?
But; Wait, Would There Be a Desire For Eternal For Normal People ?
Discussion: In this age of world, even if we hear, learn or teach how much ever or whatever, Maya is so powerful, that people get disillusioned & estranged…
5) athha-atho Brahmajijnasa:
May Be afterwards, There Can Be a Likewise Change Resembling Desire For That…
Discussion: Even though there is very little chance for earth bound people to be spiritually fortunate, some of the atma light forms, just after few human incarnations developed from animal group souls, gain in one life, sudden interest in the eternal; may be by s?wa, ya?na, sa??an, prarthana or mantra… This interest which may resemble the real thing may soon fade away, depending on the grade & intensity of positive influence…
6) athha atho Brahma ajijnasa
alas! But Now; What Brahmajijnasa ? There Is Only Pure Desire For The Opposite !!!
Discussion: I like this one because, this reflects present state of 99% of the souls incarnated in india… Pity !!! & wastage of Jivas as body vehicles…
7) athha : atho Brahmajijnasa
But; Next Would Be The Revelation; When You Least Expect It…
Discussion: This is indirectly praise for constant effort & the results would be bestowed as a surprise…
Heavenly Wind Mills Chug Slow Blue, But Work So True…
8 ) athha | atho Brahma jijnasa
Certainly; Now IS The Time For Desire Of Brahman…
Discussion: If you think this is not the right time, age, place, situation or more for this spiritual thing; then you are sooo wrong… This is the best and foremost time for inquiry into the eternal…
9) athha ? atho Brahma jijnasa
Rather, Next Should Better Be The Desire For Liberation !!!
Discussion: If you are born to suffer, god is not benevolent !!! It is not the world or the others went wrong; but the way you see your world… If you are unhappy; then rather next thing you do better be this…
10) athha ? atho Brahma jijnasa
Then & Now; all These Worlds Visible To Eyes and Not; are Created and Sustained By The Desire Of Brahman about Itself…
Discussion: This; I am going for the extended dírkhaadhírkha bhava occult meaning of old devanagari, from which new dissociated script originated around 800BC… Touching the core principle of Sankara in his advaitha doctrine; duality is expounded as an extended desire of unmanifested singularity, in it’s inherent ability to think about itself; with that thought itself acting as catalyst to the manifested duality of creation… Thought was, is & always will be a thing and the nothingness duality conundrum of Sankhya philosophy was not referenced by the intelligence and so the doer and done comes into picture later after nirakara brahman experienced itself as the ultimate desire; as akin to a dream universe…
