THE EIGHTH HUNDRED
 
701. The state of be-ness (Satta).
 
The state which is devoid of difference in its own spe-
cies, in other species as well as in itself. The Sruti (Chcha.
Up., 6-2-1) says: "This was one only without a second."
702. Of Supreme Intelligence (Satbhūtih).
 
As the Supreme Self is ever-existing and shining, He is
Intelligence. The objective world is not to be called
Intelligence' because of its limitation, hence it is neither
Sat (existing) nor Asat (non-existing). The limitation of
objects has been demonstrated by the Srutis and reasoning.
Vya. The goal of the good.

In whose army are such valiant men as Hanuman, etc.
 
705. The chief of the Yadus (Yadusreshthah).

Balabhadra, Subhadra and others, who are connected with
Yamuna; or whose attendant shepherds are Brahma and
other Devas in human form.
