FOOTNOTES:
[1]. Note.—The logical term pratiyogi vyava-cheda is explained as pratiyogi nirúpaka vyávrithi, which means that egoism being an abstract term, does not point out any particular person or thing, and the ego being a discrete word conveys no sense of a concrete noun. Moreover it is indeterminate and signifies no determinate number, nor is it predicated by any of the predicables which is not applicable to it.
[2]. Note.—These are named as the spheres of ahamkára or egoism, mahatattwa or the great principle, and the ananta-prakriti or the hyperphysical Infinity; in the saiva and sánkhya sástras.
[3]. (Note.—Full many a gem of brightest ray serene, the dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear. Gray.)
[4]. Note.—The sky or vacuum is the taumatra or identic with the sound or word; and the void and its sound are both uncreated and eternal. (sabdho ajonitáth शब्दोऽयोनित्वात्). So it said:—In the beginning was the word (sound), the word was with god (vacuity), and the word was god (atmá), the spirit or air.
