Vaj: > You cannot separate effects from those causes... > This is of course not a part of Indian metaphysics: neither the Nyaya nor the Sankhya. All effects have causes, but the cause is not always a part of the effect, and sometimes the effect is not a part of the cause. You need to get some smarts, Vaj, and read up on Indian metaphysics.
Here is a good place for you to start: 'Foundations of Hindu Philosophy' by Theos Bernard, Ph.D. Author of 'Hatha Yoga', 'Penthouse of the Gods', 'Heaven Lies Within' etc., etc. Philosophical Library, 1947 According to the Kapila, creation is impossible, for something cannot come out of nothing; change implies something to change; whatever is, always is, and whatever is not, never is. Kapila: "And from the contrast with that which is composed of the three constituents, there follows, for the Purusha, the character of Being, a witness; freedom from misery, neutrality, percipience, and non-agency" (XVII).
