n the case of other transitive verbs, object and result may be separate; so, for instance, when it is said 'grama/m/ ga/kkh/ati,' the village is the object of the action of going, and the arrival at the village its result. But in the case of verbs of desiring object and result coincide.] [Footnote 58: That Brahman exists we know, even before entering on the Brahma-mima/m/sa, from the occurrence of the word in the Veda, &c., and from the etymology of the word we at once infer Brahman's chief attributes.] [Footnote 59: The three last opinions are those of the followers of the Nyaya, the Sa@nkhya, and the Yoga-philosophy respectively. The three opinions mentioned first belong to various materialistic schools; the two subsequent ones to two sects of Bauddha philosophers.] [Footnote 60: As, for instance, the passages 'this person consists of the essence of food;' 'the eye, &c. spoke;' 'non-existing this was in the beginning,' &c.] [Footnote 61: So the compound is to be divided according to An. Gi. and Go.; the Bha. proposes another less plausible division.] [Footnote 62: According to Nirukta I, 2 the six bhavavikara/h/ are: origination, existence, modification, increase, decrease, destruction.] [Footnote 63: The pradhana, called also prak/ri/ti, is the primal causal matter of the world in the /S/a@nkhya-system. It will be fully discussed in later parts of this work. To avoid ambiguities, the term pradhana has been left untranslated. Cp. Sa@nkhya Karika 3.] [Footnote 64: Ke/k/it tu hira/n/yagaroha/m/ sa/m/sari/n/am evagamaj jagaddhetum a/k/akshate. Ananada Giri.] [Footnote 65: Viz. the Vai/s/eshikas.] [Footnote 66: Atmana/h/ /s/ruter ity artha/h/. Ananda Giri.] [Footnote 67: Text (or direct statement), suggestive power (linga), syntactical connection (vakya), &c., being the means of proof made use of in the Purva Mima/m/sa.] [Footnote 68: The so-called sakshatkara of Brahman. The &c. comprises inference and so on.] [Footnote 69: So, for instance, the passage 'he carves the sacrificial post and makes it eight-cornered,' has a purpose only as being supplementary to the injunction 'he ties the victim to the sacrificial post.'] [Footnote 70: If the fruits of the two /s/astras were not of a different nature, there would be no reason for the distinction of two /s/astras; if they are of a different nature, it cannot be said that the knowledge of Brahman is enjoined for the purpose of final release, in th
