I think the commentator here is mistaken, the Para Parkriti is the *pure* prakriti, in the transcendent it would be called *mula-prakriti* from Sanskrit 'mula' or 'root'. Maharishi commented: 'This is Vedic civilization. Some > word > > will click sometime and it will give the Totality. Just as today, > this > > Dashamas Twam Asi, Thou art The Tenth.

Interesting that the 10 is the zero along with the one, that is the drop has become the ocean symbolized by the 10, the 'memory' is reflected in the one, the unity in the zero. The purport being once we become the tenth purusha and are one with Brahman we never lose the 'memory' of our separate existence, it exists in the absolute as the memory, or one. >snip>
