3.11
सर्वार्थतैकाग्रतयोः क्षयोदयौ चित्तस्य समाधिपरिणामः
sarvārthataikāgratayoḥ kṣayodayau cittasya samādhi-pariṇāmaḥ
The line
The mind's transformation into samādhi (समाधि) is the dwindling of being-about-everything and the rising of one-pointedness.
नेपालीमा
चित्तको समाधिमा परिणाम सबैतिर लाग्नेपन घट्नु र एकाग्रता उठ्नु हो।
Where it sits
The second transformation. Stilling was 3.9. Samādhi (समाधि) as a change is this line. 3.12 is the third, one-pointedness itself as a change once the subsided idea and the new idea are equal.
Split: sarvārthatā (सर्वार्थता) + ekāgratayoḥ (एकाग्रतयोः) + kṣaya (क्षय) + udayau (उदयौ) + cittasya (चित्तस्य) + samādhi (समाधि) + pariṇāmaḥ (परिणामः)
Sanskrit, in depth
The words
| Word | Grammar | Sense |
|---|---|---|
| sarvārthatā (सर्वार्थता) | stem | the state of being about everything. The mind aimed all over. |
| ekāgratayoḥ (एकाग्रतयोः) | genitive dual | of that and of one-pointedness. The dual ending covers both states. |
| kṣaya (क्षय) | stem | dwindling. Being-about-everything dwindles. |
| udayau (उदयौ) | nominative dual | and rising. One-pointedness rises. The dual covers both movements. |
| cittasya (चित्तस्य) | genitive singular | of the mind. |
| samādhi (समाधि) | stem | samādhi (समाधि). |
| pariṇāmaḥ (परिणामः) | nominative singular, masculine | the transformation. |
The phrases
The mind's transformation into samādhi (समाधि) is the dwindling of being-about-everything and the rising of one-pointedness. sarvārthatā (सर्वार्थता) + ekāgratā (एकाग्रता) is ā (आ) + e (ए) = ai (ऐ), so the recited word is sarvārthataikāgratayoḥ (सर्वार्थतैकाग्रतयोः). Do not put a hyphen between tā (ता) and e (ए) as if they were still separate vowels. The join has already become ai (ऐ).
The shape matches 3.9. Two things in the genitive dual, two movements in the nominative dual, and a name for the transformation.
Sanskrit in this line
ā (आ) + e (ए) = ai (ऐ), from etayaiva (एतयैव) in 1.44. Here it is the whole lesson of the line's spelling. sarvārthatā-ekāgratayoḥ (सर्वार्थताएकाग्रतयोः) would be a wrong split, because that spelling puts the e (ए) back after the join has swallowed it. The manuscript join is taikāgra (तैकाग्र).
Say it back
Point at tai (तै) and say which two vowels it used to be.
