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 6.9.19

विद्याविद्यादृशौ त्यक्त्वा यदस्तीह तदस्ति हि ।
प्रतियोगिव्यवच्छेदवशादेतद्रघूद्वह ॥ १९ ॥

vidyāvidyādṛśau tyaktvā yadastīha tadasti hi |
pratiyogivyavacchedavaśādetadraghūdvaha || 19 ||

Leaving aside the sights of knowledge and ignorance, there remains that which always exists of itself (that is, the self-existent God exists, beyond both the knowledge and ignorance of men, or whether they know him or not). It is only the contradiction of adverse parties ([Sanskrit: pratiyogi byavaccheda]) that has introduced these words.
