नेपालीमा
अनि सत्त्वको शुद्धि, प्रसन्नता, एकाग्रता, इन्द्रियमाथि वश र आत्मा देख्ने योग्यता हुन्छ।
Where it sits
Still the fruit of śauca (शौच). The ca (च) is doing real work: these are in addition to 2.40, not a new observance. Contentment is next, and it gets a single fruit.
Split: sattva (सत्त्व) + śuddhi (शुद्धि) + saumanasya (सौमनस्य) + ekāgrya (एकाग्र्य) + indriya (इन्द्रिय) + jaya (जय) + ātma (आत्म) + darśana (दर्शन) + yogyatvāni (योग्यत्वानि) + ca (च)
Sanskrit, in depth
The words
| Word | Grammar | Sense |
|---|---|---|
| sattva (सत्त्व) | stem | sattva. The strand of light, among the guṇas (गुण). |
| śuddhi (शुद्धि) | stem | purity. |
| saumanasya (सौमनस्य) | stem | gladness of mind. |
| ekāgrya (एकाग्र्य) | stem | one-pointedness. |
| indriya (इन्द्रिय) | stem | the senses. |
| jaya (जय) | stem | mastery. |
| ātma (आत्म) | stem | the self. |
| darśana (दर्शन) | stem | seeing. |
| yogyatvāni (योग्यत्वानि) | nominative plural, neuter | fitnesses. The plural ending covers the whole further list. |
| ca (च) | indeclinable | and. These too, from the cleanliness of 2.40. |
The phrases
A further list from cleanliness, joined by ca (च). Purity of sattva, gladness, one-pointedness, mastery of the senses, and fitness for seeing the self. The compounds overlap: saumanasya (सौमनस्य) + ekāgrya (एकाग्र्य) is a (अ) + e (ए) = ai (ऐ), and jaya (जय) + ātma (आत्म) is a (अ) + ā (आ) = ā (आ), so the recited line runs together.
Vyāsa (व्यास)'s bhāṣya (भाष्य) cuts the list as five: sattva-śuddhi (सत्त्वशुद्धि), saumanasya (सौमनस्य), ekāgrya (एकाग्र्य), indriya-jaya (इन्द्रियजय), ātma-darśana-yogyatva (आत्मदर्शनयोग्यत्व). The plural -āni (आनि) sits on the last. Do not invent a sixth by cutting at every hyphen.
Sanskrit in this line
The new sandhi is a (अ) + e (ए) = ai (ऐ). saumanasya (सौमनस्य) + ekāgrya (एकाग्र्य) is saumanasyaikāgrya (सौमनस्यैकाग्र्य). You have had ā (आ) + e (ए) = ai (ऐ) in etayaiva (एतयैव). Short a (अ) before e (ए) makes the same ai (ऐ). The plural -āni (आनि) means the list is one group.
Say it back
Cut the line into the five fruits, aloud. If you make six, the a (अ) + e (ए) joint has fooled you.
