## Chapter Five [219] The A-dṛṣṭa is not the cause of action because it is not active and does not have the characteristic of touch, whereas the wind, being active and having the characteristic of touch, is the cause of pulsation in plants. The A-dṛṣṭa is the opposite of this. The wind that is expelled from the body by the soul, which is seeking the destruction of the obstacles to power, the destruction of the veil of knowledge, and the rise of the karma of the limbs and the limbs of the limbs, is called Prāṇa, which is characterized by inhalation. The wind that is drawn into the body by the soul is called Apāna, which is characterized by exhalation. Thus, Prāṇa and Apāna are also beneficial to the soul, because they are the cause of life. These three, namely, mind, Prāṇa, and Apāna, are material because their obstruction, etc., is seen by material things. The obstruction of the mind is seen by things that cause fear, such as lightning strikes. It is also seen by things that overwhelm it, such as alcohol. The obstruction of Prāṇa and Apāna is experienced by covering the mouth with the palms of the hands, cloth, etc., and by phlegm. The immaterial cannot be obstructed by material things. Therefore, the existence of the soul is established. Just as the movements of a mechanical image indicate the existence of its operator, so too, the actions of Prāṇa, Apāna, etc., indicate the existence of the active soul. 8564. Whether this is the only benefit of the Pudgala or there is another benefit, is explained in the next sūtra: **Happiness, sorrow, life, and death are also benefits of the Pudgala.** [20] $565. The result that arises from the ripening of external substances, etc., due to the internal cause of the rise of the Sāta and Asāta, is called happiness and sorrow, which are in the form of pleasure and pain. The karma of life, which is the cause of existence, arises from the soul's A-dṛṣṭa. Therefore, this A-dṛṣṭa is also inactive and therefore unable to initiate action elsewhere. It is seen that the particular substance called wind is itself active and has the characteristic of touch, and is the cause of pulsation in plants, but the A-dṛṣṭa is the opposite of this, and therefore cannot be the cause of action. The soul, which is seeking the destruction of the obstacles to power, the destruction of the veil of knowledge, and the rise of the karma of the limbs and the limbs of the limbs, expels the wind from the body, which is called Prāṇa, which is characterized by inhalation. The same soul draws the wind into the body, which is called Apāna, which is characterized by exhalation. Thus, these Prāṇa and Apāna are also beneficial to the soul, because they are the cause of life. These three, namely, mind, Prāṇa, and Apāna, are material because their obstruction, etc., is seen by material things. For example, the obstruction of the mind is seen by things that cause fear, such as lightning strikes. It is also seen by things that overwhelm it, such as alcohol. The obstruction of Prāṇa and Apāna is experienced by covering the mouth with the palms of the hands, cloth, etc., and by phlegm. But the immaterial cannot be obstructed by material things. This indicates that they are all material. And from this, the existence of the soul is established. Just as the movements of a mechanical image indicate the existence of its operator, so too, the actions of Prāṇa, Apāna, etc., indicate the existence of the active soul. 8564. Whether this is the only benefit of the Pudgala or there is another benefit, is explained in the next sūtra: **Happiness, sorrow, life, and death are also benefits of the Pudgala.** [20] $565. The result that arises from the ripening of external substances, etc., due to the internal cause of the rise of the Sāta and Asāta, is called happiness and sorrow, which are in the form of pleasure and pain. 1. प्राप्तः वन- आ., दि. 1, दि. 2, ता., ना.। 2. पेक्षेणा- आ., दि. 1, दि. 21 3. कुतः। प्रतिषा- ' ता.। 4. हस्ततलपुटादि- ता., ना. मु.। 5. -वेद्येऽन्त- मु.।
