Here then we have a theory of creation that begins not with the Absolute Reality itself (as in all the monistic emanationist cosmologies), but with the principle of Unmanifest "Nature". They too evolve from the sattva aspect of AhamkaraPanchtanmatras or five subtle elements - evolves from the Tamas aspect of Ahamkara. By far the most important and also longest commentary is the Yukti-dpik, Light on the arguments written perhaps by Rjan or Rjna around 700 C.E. Share . He introduced several innovations into the system, notably the idea that the number of the qualities is not three but infinite and that the gua-s are substances, not qualities.

If there were one purua only, all bodies should be identical or at least indistinguishable for the function of the self orpurua is to be a supervisor of the body. The Samkhya Philosophy Sinha by Nandalal Sinha. But neither are they substances: they cannot exist separately (in every phenomenon all the three gua-s are present), they are not spatially or temporally delimited, they do not have separate individuality, and they can increase or decrease gradually in an object. Perhaps here our analogy begins to break down, but you probably know some people for whom their car is the boss. This is reminiscent of the cosmic dualism in Indian religions such as Tantrism, where the spiritual supreme male God mates with his female akti (Power) resulting in creation. The concept of Ishvara was incorporated into the Sankhya viewpoint only after it became associated with the theistic Yoga system of philosophy. Mahat - first product of evolution from Prakriti, pure potentiality. Purua, the name of the first tattva (reality) literally means man in Sanskrit (though it often is used for the wider concept of person in Sanskrit and the Skhya system, as the Skhya system holds that all sentient beings are embodied purua-s: not simply male humans). endobj Skhya is silent about the Vedas, about their guardians (the Brahmins) and for that matter about the whole caste system, and about the Vedic gods; and it is slightly inimical towards the animal sacrifices that characterized the ancient Vedic religion. In this respect, ahamkara pretends to be purusha (which is Self with a big "S"). as following an archaic form of Skhya. Sort by: Philosophy 226f: Philosophy of Science - Philosophy 226f . Right knowledge is the knowledge of the separation of the Purusa from the Prakrti. So, it is both a cognitive power and a power of action. There are many possible reasons why an existent material object is not (or cannot be) perceived: it may be too far (or near), or it is too minute or subtle; there may be something that obstructs perception; it may be indistinguishable from other surrounding objects or the sensation produced by another object may be so strong as to overweigh it. It is also realistic in its attitude towards the phenomenal world. Skhya analyzes the cosmos into a dualistic, and atheistic scheme. It is binding potency of nature. Not surprisingly, classical Skhya is remarkably independent of orthodox Brahmanic traditions, including the Vedas. The ordering is important: we use inference only when perception is impossible, and only if both are silent do we accept tradition. Jawahar Fatma The following five considerations are used in an argument for the sat-krya-vda: (a) the nonexistent cannot produce anything (given the assumed definition of existence as the ability to have some effect); (b) when producing a specific thing, we always need a specific substance as material cause (such as the clay for a pot, or milk for curds); (c) otherwise everything (or at least anything) would come into being from anything; (d) the creative agent (the efficient cause) produces only what it can, not anything (a potter cannot make jewelry); (e) the effect is essentially identical with its material cause, and so it has many of its qualities (a pot is still clay, and thus consists of the primary attributes of clay). Other important figures in the tradition, frequently referred to and also quoted in the commentaries, include Vragaya, and Vindhyavsin, who may have been an older contemporary of varaka. Although purua is not actually bound by any external force, it is an enchanted observer that cannot take his eyes off from the performance. The intellect contributes understanding to knowledge. The Skhya analysis of causation is called sat-krya-vda, or literally the existent effect theory, which opposes the view taken by the Nyya philosophy. Purusha (Self) is the first principle of Samkhya.

The Indian tradition conceives of causality differently from the recent European tradition, where it is typically regarded as a relation between events. The presentation given below will thus follow this work very closely. In the commentaries it is normally explained as the view that the effect already exists in its cause prior to its production. The two types of entities of Skhya are Prakti and purua-s, namely Nature and persons. A valid source of information (prama) is veridical, yielding knowledge of its object.

From ahamkar evolves the mind (manas), the sense organs (jnanendriyas), the organs of action (karmendriyas), and the subtle elements; from the last evolve the gross elements which actually make up the material world. It is often described as the eleventh sense. The name of the third gua, tamas, means darkness. He purposefully avoids all points of conflict: he is either silent about them or uses ambivalent expressions. They reveal no knowledge of the form or the name of the object. Such textual evidence confirms that by the beginning of our era, Indian common opinion considered Skhya as very ancient. It functions partly to make a unified picture from sense data, provided by the senses, and partly to translate the commands from the intellect to actual, separate actions of the organs. Sankhya denies that vehemently as material world that is insentient cannot originate from a sentient element. Because Prakti is essentially changing, nothing is constant in the material world: everything decays and meets its destruction in the end. The two members of an inference are the liga, sign (the given or premise) and theligin, having the sign, i.e. Perception is the direct cognition of sensible qualities (such as color and sound), which mediate cognition of the elements (such as earth and water). fp3A}z E~]'O_{'.: k)'>,S85izv;xS#8dNbMifX`~3E? When prakrti's initial equilibrium is disturbed, it sets in motion a pattern of evolution which creates both the exterior physical world and the interior psychological world. The origin of the name 'sarikhya' is shrouded in mystery. This is the earliest available Samkhya text. Liberation is forestalled, on the Skhya account, because puruabecomes enamored with the beautiful woman, Prakti, and refuses to part ways with her. It has attracted a commentary by Vijna Bhiku, the eminent Vedntist of the 16th century, entitledSkhya-Pravacana-Bhya or Commentary expounding Skhya. He also authored a small systematic treatise, the Skhya-Sra (The Essence of Skhya). 7983) translates purua as contentless consciousness; it is not only unchanging but also timeless and outside the realm of causality (a somewhat Kantian concept). While individual and separate, they are connected because each purusha is eternal and infinite. One of the reasons for this may be the extreme popularity of another commentary, Vcaspati Miras Skhya-Tattva-Kaumud, or Moonlight of the Principles of Skhya, (circa 980 C.E.). (1) All complex structures serve an external purpose, for instance, a bed is for somebody to lie on; so the whole of nature, or more specifically the body a very complex system must also serve something different from it, which is thepurua. ), where reference is made to the following ascending sequence:senses (indriyas) sense objects (elements) mind (manas) intellect (buddhi) great self (mahan atman) the unmanifest (avyakta) the Person (Purusha) Although the school of Samkhya as such was systematized by the legendary Kapila, and the Samkhya-sutra traditionally attributed to him, in its present form it is not his original work, but dates from the 15th century.Evolution of the Samkhya SchoolOne of the Six Schools of traditional Hindu philosophy, Samkhya philosophy is also considered to be the oldest. %PDF-1.5 Email: ferenc.ruzsa@elte.hu Its function is sakalpaarranging (literally fitting together) or coordinating the indriya-s. The eleven powers (indriya) are mind (manas), the senses and the powers of action (karmendriya), the biological faculties. They can lead to identification and also generate knowledge.Anumana - logicalinferenceSabda - verbal testimony, Nature of DualityAccording to Samkhya, the efficient cause of the world is Purusha and the material cause is Prakriti. Mahat is intuition, or cognition, but it is not consciousness. The function of the buddhi (intellect) is specified as adhyavasya (determination); it can be understood as definite conceptual knowledge. We've encountered a problem, please try again. However, understanding the simplicity sure is a nice place to start! Its essence is affection, its purpose and activity is illuminating. Looks like youve clipped this slide to already. In evolution, Prakriti is transformed and differentiated into multiplicity of objects. All things, and all subsequent tattwas or evolutes, are contained within Mulaprakriti, but in a subtle or unmanifest form. The view of Skhya appears to be that whensattva (quality of goodness, or illumination) predominates in buddhi (the intellect), it can act acceptably for purua, when there is a predominance of tamas, it will be weak and insufficient. This destroys the purpose of evolution, thus stopping Prakrti from evolving for Purusha.Samkhyan cosmology describes how life emerges in the universe; the relationship between Purusha and Prakriti is crucial to Patanjali's yoga system. Where did they go? Both are eternal and independent of each other. An escape from this endless circle is possible only through the realization of the fundamental difference between Nature and persons, whereby an individual purua loses interest in Nature and is thereby liberated forever from all bodies, subtle and gross. However, please don't feel too overwhelmed by the handful of principles of self-awareness. sankhya: Indian school of philosophy. The highest of the three issattva (essence), the principle of light, goodness and intelligence. It is a strong Indian example of metaphysical dualism, but unlike many Western counterparts it is atheistic. According to As a result of this conjunction, the purua is embodied in the world and appears to be the agent, and moreover Prakti seems to be conscious as it is animated by purua-s. Do not sell or share my personal information. While all 6 philosophies are important, Sankhya philosophy develops the skeletal structure and lays the groundwork for Ayurveda and its principles. It follows the polemical style of writing in the early classical schools, with heavy emphasis on epistemological issues. The unmanifest form of Prakti contrasts with the manifest form in being single, uncaused, eternal, all-pervasive, partless, self-sustaining, independent and inactive; it is aligin (known from inference only). The ego or ahakra (making the I) is explained as abhimnathinking of as [mine]. Keith) are led by the inconsistencies following from this to consider Skhya as a hopeless bundle of contradictions. There is only external awareness about an object. Theory of ExistenceThe Samkhya system is based on Satkaryavada. From buddhi evolves ahamkara, the "I-maker", which is the source of the sense of ego or individual identity. Show: Recommended. 1: Fundamental Principles of Ayurveda1st Edition by Dr. Vasant Lad Five arguments are given to prove its existence. Rajas is supportive like a column but also mobile like water. Consciousness or intelligence (chaitanya . This happens only at death, for the gross body (like a potters wheel still turning although no longer impelled) due to causally determined karmic tendencies (saskra-s) goes on to operate for a little while.

Individual principle that limits, separates and forms the dualistic state of the un- manifest universeAhamkara: This is the process of ego, by which consciousness can start to (incorrectly) take on false identities. BCE?) Also, if the senses arise from and recede into the field of mind, then it is also easy to see that during times when the senses are operating, they are also infused with mind, the next subtler level of Prakriti. The Samkhyan thesis of evolution has been widely adopted by other schools, usually witha strong theistic interpretation, in which God is both the source of consciousness and the material world. Sankhya Theory of Causation. This last argument is utilized to determine the basic attributes of the imperceptible metaphysical causes of the empirical world: the substrate must have the same fundamental attributes and abilities as the manifest world. Throughout this process of evolution purusha remains unchanged, a mere witness to prakrti's unceasing transformations. Senses/Instruments: The five senses and five instruments of expression are like ten doors of a building. Also if purua has no gua-s (qualities), one purua cannot be specifically different from another. They are what is touched, what is tasted, what is smelled, what is heard, and what is seen1--While there are countless separate and individual purushas in the Samkhya philosophy, these cannot be said to be either subjects or objects. It is a notable feature of Skhya that its dualism is somewhat unbalanced: if we droppedpurua from the picture, we would still have a fairly complete picture of the world, asPrakti is not inert, mechanical matter but is a living, creative principle that has all the resources to produce from itself the human mind and intellect. 3 0 obj The most significant divergence is perhaps the development of a theistic school of Orthodox Hindu philosophy, called Yoga, which absorbs the basic dualism of Skhya, but is theistic, and thus regards one purua as a special purua, called the Lord (vara). The world, from the creator god Brahm down to a blade of glass is just a compound of such embodied liga-arra-s. The central mechanism of evolution is the complicated interaction of the gua-s, which is sensitive to the environment, the substrate or locus of the current process. For philosophy, the central source of information is inference, and this is clearly emphasized in Skhya. But that is purusha! The term prakti (meaning nature and productive substance) is actually used in three related but different senses. The Sankhya Philosophy (contd..) When the balance of nature is first disturbed Rajas guna is activated and tries to make Sattvaguna manifest, which is restrained by tamasgunaSattvaguna predominates and control Tamas during early stage of manifestation Sattva and Tamas interact as expansion and contraction by the RajasGunas are root of all changes, the foundation of reality the existence of all thingsThey in perfect balance before the manifestation of objective worldDis-equilibrium cause manifestation The predominance of the one or the other of theses accounts for various stages in the process of cosmic evolution.They coexisted in everything one or other predominates. In other words, they compete but also combine with each other, and they can even produce each other. Of varaka we know nothing; he may have lived around 350 C.E., in any case after the composition of the foundational text of the Nyya school of Indian philosophy, known as the Nyya-Stra, and before the famous Buddhist philosopher, Vasubandhu. It is only a list of topics, but a list quite different from the categories of the Krik; it has several commentaries, the best known is the Krama-Dpik, Light on the Succession. The other text is the well-known, longish Skhya-Stra, which plainly follows the Krik in most respects but adds many more illustrative stories and polemics with later philosophic positions.

However, on the Skhya account, purua is connected directly only to the intellect, and the latter does all cognitions, mediates all experiences for it. The standard simile in the early Skhya tradition explains that as milk (an unconscious substance) starts to flow in order to nurture the calf, Praktiflows to nurture purua. (2) Sometimes it is paired with vikti (modification); prakti in this sense could be rendered as source. Then the unmanifest is prakti-only; and the intellect, the ego and the five sense qualities are both prakti-s and vikti-s thus producing the set of eight prakti-s. (The remaining sixteen tattva-s are viktis-only, while the first tattva, the unchanging, eternal purua is neither prakti nor vikti.) The two types of entities that exist, on Skhyas account, are Prakti or Nature and purua-s or persons. So it seems that on the material plane,buddhi is the locus of cognition, emotion, moral judgment and volition. All macrocosmic and microcosmic creation uses these templates. Larson, Gerald James, and Ram Shankar Bhattacharya, eds. It is sighted in many major texts from the East Indian culture.

(3) The coordinated activity of all the parts of a human being prove that there is something supervising it; without it, it would fall apart, as we see in a dead body, hence the purua must exist. According to others, however, the . Moreover, Skhya concepts and terminology frequently appear in the portion of the Vedas known as the Upaniads, notably in the Kaha and the vetvatara. Cutting the root of rebirth is the only way to final emancipation from suffering, according to Skhya. Of course, the gods of Skhya are not classical Judeo-Christian-Muslim God; they are just extra-long-lived, perhaps very powerful beings within the empirical world, themselves compounds of matter and soul. 350 C.E. stream the thing of which the liga is the sign (the inferred or conclusion). It communicates the individuality inherent in the purua-s to the essentially common Prakti that comprises the psyche of the individual. The mind for its part internally constructs a representation of objects of the external world with the data supplied by the senses. Their purpose is twofold: the purua desires experiencewithout blind nature, it would be unable to have experiences; and both Prakti and purua desire liberation (in keeping with the simile, both nature and the person, the blind and the lame, desire to make their way home and part ways).

SANKHYA They symbolize the fundamental biological abilities to communicate, to take in or consume, to move, to excrete and to generate. It manifest itself as light. It is individuation, but yet, without characteristics. Understood literally, this is not tenableif the cause existed, why was it not perceived prior to the point called its production? It is cause of mass weight and inertia. The complete passivity and disinterestedness of Purua and the acceptance of trigutmikPrakti, as the independent cause of all inner and outer manifestations of the world, are the important characteristics of the classical form. So now your car starts to act as if it's the boss. If Prakti is understood as Nature, purua can be understood as the person. Indian Philosophy The founder of Samkhya Philosophy is Sage Kapila. Although purua and Prakti are physically as much in contact as beforeboth seem to be all-pervading in extensionthere is no purpose of a new start: purua has experienced all that it wanted. This means that the Self as the Samkhya understands it is more transcendent than "mind". PSYCHOLOGICAL . A combination of these views may have resulted in the concept of the purua, the unchanging immaterial conscious essence, contrasted with Prakti, the material principle that produces not only the external world and the body but also the changing and externally determined aspects of the human mind (such as the intellect, ego, internal and external perceptual organs). Thus all metaphysical statements are based on analogical inferencesuch as: the body is a complex structure; complex structures, like a bed, serve somebody elses purpose; so there must be somebody else (the purua) that the body serves. When purusha came near, prakriti began to change.Once purusha activates prakriti, the first evolute arises; the first thing to appear out of the natural foundation of prakriti-pradhana is mahat, the great principle. It is responsible for the self-sense in living beings. The last valid source of information, pta-vacana, literally means reliable speech, but in the context of Skhya it is understood as referring to scriptures (the Vedas) only.
