Yoga Vasistha [sanskrit]

223,437 words | ISBN-10: 8171101519

The Sanskrit edition of the Yoga-vasistha including English translation and grammatical analysis. The Yogavasistha is a Hindu spiritual text written by Valmiki (who also authored the Ramayana) dealing with the philosophical topics from the Advaita-vedanta school. Chronologically it precedes the Ramayana.

Verse 3.14.4

पृथ्व्यादिरहितो देहो यो विंराडात्मको महान् ।
आतिवाहिक एवासौ चिन्मात्राच्छनभोमयः ॥ ४ ॥

pṛthvyādirahito deho yo viṃrāḍātmako mahān |
ātivāhika evāsau cinmātrācchanabhomayaḥ || 4 ||

The body of the Great Viraja also, is devoid of any material form, either of earthly or any other elemental shape, (as it is viewed in the Vedas). It is purely a spiritual, intellectual and etherial form, and as transparent as the ether itself.
