1.29
ततः प्रत्यक्चेतनाधिगमोऽप्यन्तरायाभावश् च
tataḥ pratyak-cetanādhigamo 'py antarāyābhāvaś ca
The line
From that: arrival at inward awareness, and the falling away of obstacles.
नेपालीमा
त्यसबाट भित्री चेतनामा पुगिन्छ, र विघ्नहरू झर्छन्।
Where it sits
This closes the Īśvara (ईश्वर) passage. The dedication was a way. The way has two fruits. The obstacles themselves are the next three lines, because the line has just said they fall away and has not yet said what they are.
Split: tataḥ (ततः) + pratyak (प्रत्यक्) + cetanā (चेतना) + adhigamaḥ (अधिगमः) + api (अपि) + antarāya (अन्तराय) + abhāvaḥ (अभावः) + ca (च)
Sanskrit, in depth
The words
| Word | Grammar | Sense |
|---|---|---|
| tataḥ (ततः) | indeclinable | from that. From the repetition and the contemplation. |
| pratyak (प्रत्यक्) | stem | inward, turned back toward. |
| cetanā (चेतना) | stem | awareness. |
| adhigamaḥ (अधिगमः) | nominative singular, masculine | arrival, the reaching of it. |
| api (अपि) | indeclinable | also. |
| antarāya (अन्तराय) | stem | an obstacle. Named in the next line. |
| abhāvaḥ (अभावः) | nominative singular, masculine | absence. The obstacles fall away. |
| ca (च) | indeclinable | and. The line has two results. |
The phrases
pratyak-cetanādhigamaḥ (प्रत्यक्चेतनाधिगमः) is the first result: arrival at inward awareness. cetanā (चेतना) + adhigama (अधिगम) is ā (आ) + a (अ) = ā (आ). Before api (अपि), adhigamaḥ (अधिगमः) is recited adhigamo 'pi (अधिगमोऽपि).
antarāyābhāvaḥ ca (अन्तरायाभावः च) is the second result, joined by ca (च). antarāya (अन्तराय) + abhāva (अभाव) is a (अ) + a (अ) = ā (आ). Before ca (च), abhāvaḥ (अभावः) becomes abhāvaś (अभावश्), the same aḥ (अः) + c (च्) you learned in 1.2.
Sanskrit in this line
No ending you have not met. Use this line to hear three sandhis you already own, in one breath: ā (आ) + a (अ) = ā (आ), aḥ (अः) + a (अ) = o (ओ) with avagraha, and aḥ (अः) + c (च्) = ś (श्). ca (च) is the word that makes the second nominative a second result, not a synonym of the first.
Say it back
Say the two results, and the little word that joins them. Do not drop ca (च).
