concerned;--and finally when the Great Principle merges into its cause, Nature, it renders this latter unmanifest. In as much as there is no merging of Nature itself into anything else, it is unmanifest pure and simple. This is what is meant by 'the non-separation or merging of the whole world of effects', of all kinds. The term 'Vais'varūpya' is formed by the adding of the reflexive affıx 'syan' ( to the term 'vis' varūpa '). From all this it follows that, in as much as there is ‘distinction' and also 'merging of the already existing product in the cause, there must be Unmanifest as the cause. (113) From the following reason also the Unmanifest
is the cause— 'Because of evolution being due Second proof Be. to the efficiency of the causc;" – It is a wellcause Evolution is due to Energy

is due to the efficiency of the cause; for certainly, no effect can arise from an inefficient cause. This latent 'efficiency in the cause is no other than the existence therein of the effect in its unmanifested state; since, on the hypothesis of the effect being existent, there can be no other form of causal efficiency, apart from the fact of the effect being latent in the cause.

(114) Objection: “The above two reasons that you have
urged—the fact of evolution being due to the Objection: These efficiency of the cause and that the separatwo reasons might rest with Intelleci tion and merging of the cause and effect
might be taken as proving the supreme *Unmanifest' character of the Great Principle itself. Why should we have one more Unmanifest entity beyond that?"
