Vedanta Sutra - (03-2-2)

Sri Vedanta-sutra


Adhikaraëa 5


The Same Person Returns to the Body


Introduction by Çréla Baladeva Vidyäbhüñaëa


In the Chandogya Upaniñad it is said:


sataç cägatya na viduù


"We had departed from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but we did not know we had departed from the Supreme Personality of Godhead."


Saàçaya (doubt): Is the person awakening from the bed of the Supreme Personality of Godhead the same person who first went to sleep there, or is he a different person?


Pürvapakña (the opponent speaks): It is not possible that the soul, having attained the Supreme Personality of Godhead, would again return to the same material body. Therefore it must be a different soul that awakens.


Siddhänta (conclusion): In the following words the author of the sütras gives His conclusion.


Sütra 9


sa eva tu karm/anusmåti-çabda-vidhibhyaù


sas=he; eva - indeed; tu=but; karma=karma; änusmåti=memory; çabda=of the Çruti-çästra; vidhibhyaù=from the instructions.


It is he, because of the memory of karma and because of the teachings of Çruti-çästra.
