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 3.40.42

चिरकालप्रत्ययतः कल्पनापरिपीवरः ।
आधिभौतिकताबोधमाधत्ते चैष बालवत् ॥ ४२ ॥

cirakālapratyayataḥ kalpanāparipīvaraḥ |
ādhibhautikatābodhamādhatte caiṣa bālavat || 42 ||

This spiritual being by its long association with the external senses, comes to believe itself as a sensible being; and then by imagining to have the sensible form, it finds itself invested with a material body (adhibhautika-deha) as beautiful as that of a lotus.
