Same old tired rant, and an extremely free "translation". Sour grapes, I suspect. I think it's Bhoja who comments on that suutra e.g. like this (from memory): te praakpratipaaditaaH samaahitacittasyodpadyamaanaa... I don't think he would use the word "praak-prati-paaditaaH" to qualify "te" in his commentary unless in his opinion the demonstrative pronoun "te" in "te samaadhaav upasargaa vyutthaane siddhayaH" refers only to the siddhis mentioned in the previous suutra (the refined senses, or stuff) not all the suutras. Well, at least that's a possibility... ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
