Pranam
Purusha suktam of the Rig vedam describe the Macro and Micro, Paramatma and
the jeevatma the advaiotham in a single verse of the opening:
सहस्रशीर्षा पुरुषः सहस्राक्षः सहस्रपात् ।
स भूमिं विश्वतो वृत्वात्यतिष्ठद्दशाङुलम् ॥१॥
Sahasra-Shiirssaa Purussah Sahasra-Akssah Sahasra-Paat |
Sa Bhuumim Vishvato Vrtva-Atya[i]-Tisstthad-Dasha-Angulam ||1||
Many had done a meaning that Brahmam is expansive in all the ten
directions; but the word (ya)tishtath
Īśāvāsyopaniṣad, verse 4: अनेजद् एकं मनसो जवीयो नैनद्देवा
आप्नुवन्पूर्वमर्षत् । तद्धावतोऽन्यानत्येति तिष्ठत् तस्मिन्न् अपो मातरिश्वा
दधाति ॥ ४ ॥ anejad ekaṃ manaso javīyo nainaddevā āpnuvanpūrvamarṣat |
taddhāvato'nyānatyeti tiṣṭhat tasminn apo mātariśvā dadhāti || 4 || 4.
Unmoving, one, (and speedier than the mind; the senses reach it never;
(for) it (Self) goes before. Standing, it outstrips others that run. In
virtue of it, does mātarisvā allot functions (severally to all).
Śaṅkara’s Commentary Anejat=not shaking, from the root to shake.
Shaking is moving, i.e., lapsing from its real state. (The Self is) free
from it, i.e., is always of the same form. It is also one in all beings.
manaso javīyaḥ= speedier than the mind which is characterised by desire &c.
Wherefore these conflicting statements—that it is at once assuredly
motionless and speedier than the mind? This is not wrong, for it can be
justified (on the basis of the Self) being conditioned or unconditioned. In
its original unconditioned form it is stated to be unmoving and one. (It is
also possible to predicate motion of the Self) because it reflects (the
features of) its conditioning mind which is the internal sense
characterised by desire and doubt. Since the mind, though residing here
within the body, can, in an instant, conceive of the distant Brahmaloka and
the like, it is ordinarily taken as possessing great speed. When such a
mind, for instance, reaches (in thought) Brahmaloka, with rapidity, the
Self appears to have reached there already. Therefore it is said here
'speedier than the mind’. devāḥ=senses such as the eye—so called because
they illuminate. enat =this entity of the Self. na-āpnuvan=did not reach,
the mind being speedier than they. Since mental operation (always)
intervenes, not even the semblance of the Self becomes perceivable by the
Senses.[3] (And it is beyond the mind itself) because the Self is always in
advance (of it) being all-pervading like space. (Now the verse) states that
the Self, always[4] free from all features of transmigration, in its own
unconditioned form and being altogether changeless, appears to the
undiscriminating ignorant, as experiencing all the several modes of life
due to limiting adjuncts and also as being many, i.e., one in each body.
tat=(that). dhāvataḥ=speedily going. anyān=mind, the organs of speech &c.,
which are all other than the Self. atyeti =seems to outstrip. The text
itself indicates the sense of iva (seems) by tiṣṭhat which means ‘itself
remaining immutable.’ tasmin i.e. in virtue of the existence of the Self
which is of the nature of eternal sentiency. Mātariśvā=He who moves
(śvayati) in the heavens (mātari); the Wind, the active principle in all
creatures; on which are dependent all the aggregates of causes and effects
and into which they are woven like warp and woof and which is also termed
‘the connecting thread’ and is the support of the whole universe. Such is
mātariśvā. apaḥ=functions[5] of things, such as flaming and burning of
Fire, shining of the Sun, raining of the Cloud and so on.
dadhāti=allots[6]; or the word may mean ‘directs’ agreeably to texts like
“Through fear of Him the wind blows &c.” (Taittiriya Upanishad: II, viii,
1). The idea is that all changes of the nature of cause and effect take
place only when the Self, the eternal sentiency and substrate of all,
exists.
अत्येति (atyeti) = surpasses Iṣṭa—Transcending desire or the object of
search
The words used had generated many meanings with the
Atyetistaddasangulam HOWEVER THE BEST MEANING RENDERED IS WRT THE
DASANGULAM 10 INCHES IS : THE MICRO JEEVATMA IS NEARER TO YOUR HEART
REACHABLE FROM ALL DIRECTIONS OF YOUR BODY ESPECIALLY FROM YOUR STOMACH
WITHIN 10 INCHES. WE ARE UNAWARE OF IT SEARCHING FOR THE MACRO SAHASRA
SEERSHA. NICRO AND THE MACRO IS THE SAME. WHAT IS WITHIN THE CLASP APPEARS
JUMPING OUT OF OUR REACH. (ANNA ON UPANISHADS RAMAKRISHNA MUTT PUBLICATION)
