existent, which would acquire existence in the effect. But, asks the Samkhya, ^ as this non-entity could be the cause of an entity? ^ As might arise from the non esse esse? Vacaspati Misra (in Tattvakaumudi, 62, and more detail in Nyayavartikatatparyatika) said: "Yes" If he claims the production of an entity for a non-entity, then this, as there is everywhere and at all times, should result in everywhere and at any time, any adverse effect and mud. "Commenting on the Samkhya Karig IX states:" The effect is an entity, that is, before the operation there is causal "(Tattva Kauniu-di, 62)." If the effect were a nonentity before the causal operation, could never be brought into existence "(ibid., 64. SS I, 115 and 118, with comments, and Aniruddha mainly in SS I, 41; logic on Samkhya, see Note I, 6). Between cause and effect relation there is a real and determined. But if the effect does not exist in the case, ^ it would be possible relationship between ens and non-ens? ^ That would intimate union possible between the absentee Subjective order-in-the sense of hearing: and radiant light energy (tejastanmatva) produces the radiating atom and the visual sense, and so on. ence and present? "In these conditions, says Isvara Krsna (Kari-ka, XIV), all that can be done for the cause, is the manifestation or development of the existing effect. To illustrate with an example the theory of causality, Vijnana Bhiksu writes (Samkhyapravacanabasya, I, 120): 'Just like the statue, already in the blo-that stone is revealed only by the sculptor, as the causal activity does nothing but breed that action by which an effect occurs, giving us the illusion that only exists at the present moment. Samkhya texts provide many details about the aham-kara, but what matters for our brief is that the ahamkara is defined as "knowledge of self" (Isvara Krsna, 24). We must remember that this entity, while "material" does not manifest as a sensory, physical, but is homogeneous, mass Energo-tica and pure, without any structure. According to the Samkhya, the ahamkara becomes aware of himself, and through that process, is passed (sarva, emanation) in the series of eleven principles psychic (manas or internal sense, which coordinates the powers of the soul, the cin - co cognitive senses and the five senses conative), and the series of physical power (Tanmatra). Watch the utmost importance that the Samkhya, as almost all hindu system, gives the principle of individuation Ja "consciousness of self." Note that the genesis of the psychic world is an act, that this knowledge of self (the one put forward, is ab-solute than the "awakening" of purusha) comes from the evolution of the physical world, and that psycho-physiological phenomena and objectives have a common mold, then the only difference that separates them is the formula of the guna. sattva dominates the psiqui-cal phenomena, the cracks in the psychophysiological, while products of the "commodity" products are made up of increasingly dense iner-tion of tamas (anu, Tanmatra, bhutani). The Samkhya-Yoga also offers a subjective interpretation of the three guna when considering their "looks" psychic. When sattva predominant-mine the mind is calm, clear, understandable, virtuous dominated by the cracks, this turbulent, unstable, uncertain; Aug-Biada by tamas, this dark, confused, passionate, brutal (see YS, II, 15, 19, with comments). But this subjective human Appreciation of the three modalities cosmic goal does not contradict his character, not being "outside" and "interior but mere verbal expressions. With this physiological basis, it is understood that the Samkhya-Yoga regarded all

psychic experience as a simple process "material". Morale suffers: purity, goodness, are not quali-ties of spirit, but a "purification" of "subtle matter" re-presented by conscience. The guna permeate the entire universe and establish a rapport exists between the man and the Cosmos, is-ing this two entities invaded by the same pain of existence and serving both at the same absolute self, the world Extranet and dragged by a destination, unintelligible. In fact, the differ-ence between the cosmos and man is one of degree, not essence. Thanks to parinama, matter has infinite forms (vikara) compound and increasingly varied. The Samkhya believes that a creation so large, a building of forms and complicated to the point agencies, requires a justification and meaning out of it. A primary prakrti, report and eternal, may make sense, but the world as we see it, is not a ho-mogenea substance, by contrast, offers considerable number of structures and different ways. The complexity of the Cosmos, the infinity of its "forms" are elevated to the rank of the Samkhya meta-physical arguments. The "Development" is undoubtedly the product of our ignorance metaphysics, the existence of the universe and polymorphism of Life are due to the false belief that man has of himself, it confuses the real with the states I psychomental. But, as we observed in previous pages, we can not know what the origin and cause of this erroneous belief. What we know, what we see is that prakriti has an "evolution" of the most complicated-tion and is not simple, but "composed". Now the good sense made us all there belongings benefit of another. Thus, for example, the bed is a whole composite of several parts, but this elaboration is not temporary ordenada for itself but for the benefit of man (Karika, 17, with comments, V. Misra, 120: SS, I, 140-144 with comments by Anirudh and Bhiksu Vijnana). The Samkhya revealing the ideological character of Creation, if indeed the Creation did not have the mission to serve the spirit it would be absurd, devoid of meaning. Everything in nature is composed, all must therefore have a "superintendent" (adhyaksah), someone who can use these compounds. The "superintendent" non-serious mental activity or state of consciousness (being themselves ex-tremely complex products of prakriti). There must be an entity for exceeding the categories of substance (guna) and acting with a view of its own (Vacaspati Misra, 122 in the Karika, 17). But still, there must be a reason, a cause to which mental activity this subject, which are geared toward "pleasure and pain." Because, says Misra (123), pleasure could be experienced and not speci-fied for pleasure's sake, and if the pain experienced, serious and not a pleasant experience, but painful. Thus, the two qualities (pain and pleasure) can not exist nor be specified-ing until they are oriented toward a single reason or cause that exceeds the experience. It is the first evidence of the existence of the spirit that reveals the Samkhya: samhatapararthatvat purusasya, that is: "Knowledge of the existence of spirit, by the combination, for the benefit of others," copiously repeated axiom in Indian literature (S . Sutra, I, 66; Vacaspati in Karika, 17; Brhadaranyaka Up, II, 4, 5) and takes Yoga (Yoga Sutra, IV, 24). Vacaspati adds, if anyone would object by saying that the evolution and heterogeneity of the substance are intended to serve other "com-positions" (as the case, for example, the chair, being a "com-posed" created with a view to that other "composite" is the human being), can answer these compounds must exist for other compounds in turn will serve them: the series of interdependence would lead to a regressus fatally ad infinitum . "And then," to which we can avoid that regressus, continuous Vacaspati,

existent, which would acquire existence in the effect. But, asks the Samkhya, ^ as this<br />

non-entity could be the cause of an entity? ^ As might arise from the non esse esse?<br />

everywhere and at all times, should result in everywhere and at any time, any adverse<br />

effect and mud. "Commenting on the Samkhya Karig IX states:" The effect is an entity,<br />
