विवेकः ( Discrimination )
* Central Idea * faa#: (Vivekaḥ ) does not mean here modesty or civility or courtesy. Its philosophical meaning is Discriminating, Distinguishing.
The soul has wandered through the cycle of births and deaths, till now. It is on account of Nondiscrimination. Clear line of distinction should be drawn between the Soul and the Matter. They both are separate entities, One has nothing to do with the other. Each of the two has its own laws which govern its behaviour. This is fa#: (Vivekaḥ); also called #5174 (Bhedajñānam).
