INTRODUCTION.
VEDÂNTA-SÛTRAS
WITH
RÂMÂNUJA'S SRÎBHÂSHYA
FIRST ADHYÂYA.
FIRST PÂDA.
1. Then therefore the enquiry into Brahman.
THE SMALL PÛRVAPAKSHA.
THE SMALL SIDDHÂNTA.
THE GREAT PÛRVAPAKSHA.
THE ONLY REALITY IS BRAHMAN.
Scripture is of greater force than Perception
Difference--bheda--does not admit of logical definition
THE GREAT SIDDHÂNTA.
Nor can you quote in favour of your view
But, it now may be said, we observe that
2. (Brahman is that) from which the origin, &c., of this (world proceed).
3. Because Scripture is the source (of the knowledge of Brahman).
7. Because release is taught of him who takes his stand on it.
8. And because there is no statement of its having to be set aside.
9. And on account of the contradiction of the initial statement.
10. On account of (the individual soul) going to the Self.
11. On account of the uniformity of view.
12. And because it is directly stated in Scripture.
15. And because he is declared to be the cause of thatra.
17. Not the other, on account of impossibility.
18. And on account of the declaration of difference.
23. Ether (is Brahman), on account of the characteristic marks.
24. For the same reason breath (is Brahman).
25. The light (is Brahman), on account of the mention of feet.
29. Prâna is Brahman, on account of connexion.
SECOND PÂDA.
1. Everywhere; because there is taught what is known.
3. But, on account of impossibility, not the embodied soul.
5. On account of the difference of words.
6. And on account of Smriti.
10. And on account of the topic of the whole section.
12. And on account of distinctive qualities.
14. And on account of the statement as to abode, and so on.
16. For that very reason that (ether) is Brahman.
21. For both also speak of it as something different.
24. And on account of the description of its form.
26. That which the text refers to is an inferential mark--thus.
28. For the same reasons not the divinity and the element.
30. On account of definiteness; thus Âsmarathya opines.
31. On account of meditation, Bâdari thinks.
33. Moreover, they record him in that.
THIRD PÂDA.
4. On account of the declaration of difference.
5. On account of the subject-matter.
6. And on account of abiding and eating.
8. And on account of the suitability of the attributes.
10. And this (supporting) (springs) from command.
16. And on account of the settled meaning.
19. And the reference has a different meaning.
21. And on account of the imitation of that.
22. The same is declared by Smriti also.
23. On account of the term, the one measured.
24. But with reference to the heart, men being qualified.
28. And for this very reason eternity (of the Veda).
34. And on account of (Jânasruti ) kshattriya-hood being understood.
39. And on account of Smriti.
40. On account of the trembling.
41. On account of light being seen (declared in the text).
43. On account of difference in deep sleep and departing.
44. And on account of such words as Lord.
FOURTH PÂDA.
2. But the subtle (body), on account of its capability.
To this the next Sûtra replies--
6. And of three only there is this mention and question.
7. And as in the case of the 'Great.'
9. But she begins with light; for thus some read in their text.
12. The breath, and so on, on the ground of the complementary passage.
13. By light, food not being (mentioned in the text) of some.
15. From connexion.
16. Because it denotes the world.
19. On account of the connected meaning of the sentences.
21. Because (the soul) when it will depart is such; thus Audulomi thinks.
24. And on account of the statement of reflection.
25. And on account of both being directly declared.
26. On account of (the Self) making itself.
27. Owing to modification.
28. And because it is called the womb.
29. Herewith all (texts) are explained, explained.
SECOND ADHYÂYA
FIRST PÂDA.
2. And on account of the non-perception (of truth on the part) of others.
3. Hereby the Yoga is refuted.
6. But it is seen.
9. Not so; as there are parallel instances.
10. And on account of the objections to his view.
11. Also in consequence of the ill-foundedness of reasoning.
16. And because (the cause) is perceived in the existence of the effect.
17. And on account of the existence of that which is posterior.
19. And like a piece of cloth.
20. And as the different vital airs.
Here terminates the adhikarana of 'designation of the other.'
25. And as in the case of the gods and so on, in (their) world.
28. And thus in the Self; for (there are) manifold (powers).
29. And on account of the defects of his view also.
30. And (the divinity is) endowed with all powers, because that is seen.
33. But (it is) mere sport, as in ordinary life.
36. And because all the attributes are proved (to be present in Brahman).
SECOND PÂDA.
2. If it be said--like milk or water; there also (intelligence guides).
4. Nor like grass and so on; because (milk) does not exist elsewhere.
5. And if you say--as the man and the stone; thus also.
8. And even if it be admitted; on account of the absence of a purpose.
9. And (it is) objectionable on account of the contradictions.
Here terminates the adhikarana of 'the impossibility of construction.'
10. Or in the same way as the big and long from the short and the atomic.
13. And because (the world also) would thus be eternal.
15. And as there are objections in both cases.
16. And as it is not accepted, it is altogether disregarded.
24. And on account of recognition.
25. Not from non-entity, this not being observed.
27. Not non-existence, on account of consciousness.
28. And on account of difference of nature (they are) not like dreams.
29. The existence (is) not, on account of the absence of perception.
30. And on account of its being unproved in every way.
31. Not so, on account of the impossibility in one.
33. And likewise non-entireness of the Self.
37. And on account of the impossibility of rulership.
39. Finiteness or absence of omniscience.
40. On account of the impossibility of origination.
41. And there is not (origination) of the instrument from the agent.
43. And on account of contradiction.
THIRD PÂDA.
1. Not Ether; on account of the absence of scriptural statement.
2. But there is.
3. It has a secondary sense, on account of impossibility and of the text.
6. (As follows also) from (other) texts.
8. Hereby air is explained.
10. Fire (is produced) thence, for thus Scripture declares.
11. Water (from fire).
12. Earth (from water).
13. Earth on account of the subject-matter, the colour, and other texts.
14. But he; from the inferential mark supplied by their reflection.
19. For this very reason (the individual soul is) a knower.
20. On account of (its) passing out, moving and returning.
21. And on account of the latter two (being effected) through the Self.
23. And on account of the very word, and of measure.
24. There is no contradiction, as in the case of sandal-ointment.
26. Or on account of its quality as light.
28. On account of the separate statement.
Here terminates the adhikarana of 'the _knower_.'
34. On account of taking and the declaration as to its moving about.
37. On account of the inversion of power.
38. And on account of the absence of samâdhi.
39. And as the carpenter, in both ways.
Here terminates the adhikarana of 'the agent.'
40. But from the highest, this being declared by Scripture.
Here terminates the adhikarana of 'that which depends on the Highest.'
43. And on account of the mantra.
44. Moreover it is so stated in Smriti.
45. But as in the case of light and so on. Not so is the highest.
46. And Smriti texts declare this.
48. And on account of non-connectedness there is no confusion.
49. And it is a mere apparent argument.
50. On account of the non-determination of the adrishtas.
51. And it is thus also in the case of purposes and so on.
FOURTH PÂDA.
1. Thus the prânas.
3. On account of speech having for its antecedent that.
6. And (they are) minute.
7. And the best.
8. Neither air nor function, on account of its being stated separately.
11. It is designated as having five functions like mind.
12. And (it is) minute.
14. And on account of the eternity of this.
THIRD ADHYÂYA.
FIRST PÂDA.
3. And on account of the going of the prânas.
11. But only good and evil works, thus Bâdari thinks.
14. Smriti texts also declare this.
15. Moreover there are seven.
16. On account of his activity there also, there is no contradiction.
17. But, of knowledge and work--as these are the leading topics.
18. Not in the case of the third (place), as it is thus perceived.
19. It moreover is recorded, in the world.
20. And on account of its being seen.
21. The third term includes that which springs from heat.
23. Not very long; on account of special statement.
25. It is unholy. Not so, on the ground of Scripture.
26. After that conjunction with him who performs the act of generation.
27. From the yoni the body.
SECOND PÂDA.
2. And some (state the soul to be) the shaper; and sons, and so on.
5. Or that (results) also from connexion with the body.
8. Hence the awaking from that.
9. But the same, on account of work, remembrance, text, and injunction.
13. Some also (teach) thus.
16. And (the text) says so much only.
17. (This Scripture) also shows, and it is also stated in Smriti.
19. But because it is not apprehended like water, there is no equality.
22. That (is) unmanifested; for (this Scripture) declares.
23. Also in perfect conciliation, according to Scripture and Smriti.
26. But on account of twofold designation, as the snake and its coils.
27. Or else like light and its abode, both being fire.
28. Or else in the manner stated above.
29. And on account of denial.
31. But on account of resemblance.
32. It subserves the purpose of thought; as in the case of the feet.
33. Owing to difference of place, as in the case of light, and so on.
34. And on account of possibility.
35. Thus, from the denial of anything else.
37. From thence the reward; on account of possibility.
38. And on account of scriptural declaration.
39. For the same reasons Jaimini (thinks it to be) religious action.
THIRD PÂDA.
4. Scripture also declares this.
9. And (this is) appropriate, on account of the extension.
10. On account of non-difference of everything, those elsewhere.
13. But the others, on account of equality with the thing.
14. For meditation, owing to the absence of purpose.
15. And on account of the term 'Self.'
19. And (the qualities) thus being equal, on account of non-difference.
20. On account of connexion, thus elsewhere also.
21. Or not so, on account of difference.
22. The text also declares this.
25. On account of the difference of sense of piercing and so on.
34. So much; on account of reflection.
39. On account of emphasis there is non-omission.
42. Just as in the case of the offerings. This has been explained.
45. And on account of the transfer.
51. Some, on account of the existence of a Self within a body.
54. Or there is no contradiction as in the case of mantras and the rest.
57. Option, on account of the non-difference of result.
59. They belong to the constituent members, as the bases.
60. And on account of injunction.
61. On account of rectification.

4. On account of direct scriptural statement.
5. On account of the taking hold together.

11. There is distribution, as in the case of the hundred.

14. Or the permission is for the purpose of glorification.
15. Some also, by proceeding according to their liking.
16. And destruction.
17. And of him who is chaste; for in Scripture (this is declared).
20. Or an injunction, as in the case of the carrying.
22. And on account of the words denoting becoming.
29. And on account of non-sublation.
30. This is said in Smriti also.
32. The works of the âsramas also, on account of their being enjoined.
33. And on account of co-operativeness.
35. And Scripture also declares (knowledge) not to be overpowered.
36. Also in the case of those outside, as this is seen.
37. Smriti also states this.
49. Not manifesting itself; on account of the connexion.
FOURTH ADHYÂYA
FIRST PÂDA.
2. And on account of an inferential mark.
5. The view of Brahman, on account of superiority.
7. Sitting; on account of possibility.
8. And on account of meditation.
9. And with reference to immobility.
10. And Smriti texts say the same.
12. Up to death; for there also it is seen.
14. Of the other also there is thus non-clinging; but at death.
18. For (there is the text) 'whatever he does with knowledge.'
SECOND PÂDA.
2. And for the same reason all follow after.
3. That mind in breath, owing to the subsequent clause.
5. With the elements, this being stated by Scripture.
6. Not with one; for both declare this.

THIRD PÂDA.
1. On the path beginning with light, that being known.
3. Beyond lightning there is Varuna, on account of connexion.
4. Conductors, this being indicated.
7. And on account of (Brahman) being specified.
8. But on account of nearness there is that designation.
10. And on account of Smriti.
11. The Highest, Jaimini thinks; on account of primariness of meaning.
12. And because Scripture declares it.
13. And there is no aiming at the effected (Brahman).
15. And Scripture declares the difference.
FOURTH PÂDA.
2. The released one; on account of the promise.
3. The Self, on account of subject-matter.
4. In non-division; because that is seen.
8. By the mere will; Scripture stating that.
