CHAPTER 1. Exposition of Purushārtha-Siddhyupāya. तज्जयति परं ज्योतिः समं समस्तैरनन्तपर्यायैः । दर्पणतल इव सकला प्रतिफलति पदार्थमालिका यत्र ॥१॥
-
1. Victory to that Supreme Intelligence, where, as it were in a mirror, is reflected the chain of all substances, in all their infinite conditions.
Commentary.
The word , supreme, indicates the highest conceivable degree of perfection and the word vulfai, Effulgence, is used to convey the idea of pure absolute luminous omniscience, the utter absence of any the slightest shadow of the darkness of ignorance.
Glorious or Victorious, is an exclamation of unsuppressable Joy, experienced in the contemplation of the Almighty Omniscience.
