वेदानां सामवेदोऽस्मि देवानामस्मि वासवः | इन्द्रियाणां मनश्चास्मि भूतानामस्मि चेतना
vedānāṃ sāmavedo.asmi devānāmasmi vāsavaḥ . indriyāṇāṃ manaścāsmi bhūtānāmasmi cetanā
在吠陀(Veda)经典中,我是《娑摩吠陀》(Sama-veda);在众神中,我是因陀罗(Indra)。在感官中,我是心意;在众生中,我是觉知(chetana)。
Among the Vedas I am Sama-veda; among the gods I am Indra. Among the organs I am the mind, and I am the intelligence in creatures.
婆娑瓦(Vasava)即是因陀罗(Indra)。神祇如楼陀罗(Rudras)、阿底提耶(Adityas)等。感官(Indriyas)包括五种知识感官(JnanaIndriyas),即耳、皮肤、眼、舌和鼻,以及五种行动感官(KarmaIndriyas),即言语、手、脚、生殖器和肛门。心意被认为是第十一种感官。由于感官若无心意的帮助便无法运作,因此心意被视为感官之首。觉知(Chetana)是智力的一种状态,显现于身体和感官的集合体中。凡能照亮一切,从智力到最粗糙的物体,都称为觉知。
