## Chapter 36:
These (36) are indicative of the stages of *mithyarava* and *samyaktvam* respectively. (11) In the *Yoga Vasistha*, the stages are described as *tasvala*, *samashti*, *purnaashaya*, and *mukta purusha*.
The fourth stage is *sthaapatti*, followed by *samsakti*. The sixth stage is *padarthaabhavi*, and the seventh is *turyaga*. (6) Liberation is attained in the last stage, and there is no further sorrow. (7) I am confused about these stages. I am a fool, I should consult a learned scholar. (8) The desire to learn with humility and respect is called *shubhechcha*. (8) The practice of *pairagya* with the guidance of a learned scholar is called *vicharana*. (9) *Vicharana* is the desire for good, and attachment to sense objects is called *tanumanasa*. (10) The practice of the first three stages leads to the state of being established in the true self, free from attachment to objects. This is called *sattvapatti*. (11) The practice of the first ten stages, along with the ten *sangha* fruits, leads to the state of *samsakti*. (12) The practice of the first five stages leads to the state of *aamyantgana*, where there is no attachment to external objects. (13) The constant contemplation of the absence of objects, through the efforts of others, is called *padarthaabhavna*. This is the sixth stage. (14) The practice of the first six stages, through the realization of the true nature of the self, leads to the state of *turyaga*. (15)
