Note 129 — SA@NKARA'S INTRODUCTION

Footnote 129:

(return)

The text runs, 'astitve ka prânânâm nihsreyasam,' and Go. Ân. explains 'astitve prânasthitau prânânâm indriyânâm sthitir ity arthatah srutim âha.' He as well as Ân. Gi. quotes as the text of the scriptural passage referred to 'athâto nihsreyasâdânam ity âdi.' But if instead of 'astitve ka' we read 'asti tv eva,' we get the concluding clause of Kau. Up. III, 2, as given in Cowell's edition.
