    Chapter 5.2 – Vedyasaṃvedyapada and Avedyasaṃvedyapada [12 of 13]

     

    Avedyasaṃvedyapada [8 of 9]

    Definition of avedyasaṃvedyapada [7 of 8]

    In this table we have seen the differences exist between a rejoicer of worldly existence and a beholder of any of the first four yogadṛṣṭis. Though both of them are destitute of subtle understanding, lack vedyasaṃvedyapada and have not cut the knot, the latter is said to have achieved substantial growth in the path of spirituality and have come closer to the attainment of samyagdarśana. Though they both possess avedyasaṃvedyapada, the later has acquired eligibility to enter the gate of spiritual elevation. The latter is capable of obtaining any of the first four yogadṛṣṭis. One would definitely think that what can be the reason of these differences between these two subjects in question though they both are mithyādṛṣṭi souls. Its answer is found in the auto commentary of twenty second dvātriṃśikā of the text Dvātriṃśad–dvātriṃśikā written by upādhyāya Yaśovijaya.
