ISAVASYA UPANISHAD : - Mantram - 5.








ISAVASYA UPANISHAD :

or


VAJASANEYI    SAMHITA    UPANISHAD


Mantram : 5.



Tadejati  tannaijati  tad  dure  tadvantike


tadan-tarasya  sarvasya  tadu  sarva-syasya  bahyatah.



tat  =  if;

ejati  =  moves;

tat  =  if;

na  =  not;

ejati  =  moves;

tat  =  if;

dure  =  far;

tat  =  if;

u  =  verily;

antike  =  near;

tat  =  if;

antah  =  inside;

asya  =  of  this;

sarvasya  =  of  all;

asya  =  this;

bahyatah  =  outside.



"The Atma  'moves'  and  It  'moves  not';  It  is  'far'  and  It  is  'near';  It  is  'inside' ( within) all  this,  and  It  is  also  'outside'  all  this."


Discussion-1. The idea  of  the  last mantram-(4)  is  repeated  here  to  make  it  more  elaborately  clear.

As  I  said  earlier,  the  attempt  of  the  Master  is  only  to  make  his  students  understand  the  vital  fact  that  the  Supreme  Consciousness  is  'all-pervading.'

It  is  to  introduce  us  to  the  entire  significance  of  the  term  'all-pervading' and  to  facilitate  us  in  experiencing  the  pregnant  import  of  the  term,  that  the  teacher  is  repeatedly  giving  different  phrases  to  convey  the  same  idea.

Next : Discussion-2. "It  moves"...'ghost' ....,'post' .....'ghost-vision' .... "That  moves  not" .........

To be continued  ...
