SADHANA PAD SUTRA -27

                             TASYA  SAPTADHA  PRANTABHUMI  PRADNYA

HIS  ( ONE WHO HAS ACHIEVED THE FINAL LEVEL ) WISDOM  HAS SEVEN  TYPES

        In this sutra we are told that when Yogi has achieved the highest level of the samadhi, the Ignorance (AVIDYA) is gone and there are no Doubts and there are no Impurities. Once He has this wisdom, he has 7 types of tendencies or wisdom. These seven things are described.
      The wisdom is not the ultimate Knowledge , but day to day life and the wisdom . So this comes from our experience in this or previous lives. So this knowledge comes from sense organ perception and it goes through the process of 'action', 'impressions','desires' and again actions. So let us say that we are walking in a farm or a garden and we see a mango tree. It has nice ripe and unripe mangoes. By 'seeing ' them we have a 'desire' to it them . This is based on our previous experience of tasting them and experiencing that they taste good . So this desire leads to action or a thought in mind that we want to eat them . So we  want to get them may be by throwing stones or the climbing tree. But our intellect or wisdom will tell us that if we do that the guard will come and beat us . So we have the 'wisdom'  and we act on it . So now this  sutra tell us that that there are 7 different things that happen when we reach higher levels of Samadhi .The various stimuli  that originate in our mind are called 'PEPSA', JIHASA',' JIDNYASA', CHIKIRSHA,' SHOKA', BHAY' AND  'ATRUPTI'.  'The desire to HAVE something is PEPSA. The desire to AVOID THINGS (that cause displeasure) is JIHASA . The desire to have more INFORMATION is JIDNYASA . The desire to DO something is CHIKIRSHA . The feeling of SADNESS due to any bad experience is SHOKA. The FEAR of something bad happening in future is BHAYA and NOT GETTING SATISFIED even with repeated experiences of sense indulgence is ATRUPTI.
    So with higher level of SAMADHI , we have eliminated all these stimuli from our CHITTA . So the YOGI has DNEYASHUNYA AWASTHA- I know all that needs to be known--state. HEYASHUNYA AWASTHA -- PAINLESS status.(Does not mean that the Yogi has no physical pain but he is not afraid of the pain) PRAPYAPRAJTA AWASTHA- No desire to ACHIEVE anything. Feeling that whatever has to be achieved is achieved . CHIKIRSHASHUNYA AWASTHA--No Desire to DO anything .HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE . So there is no desire to act the way in with ordinary man acts. So the yogi has CHITTA KRUTARTHATA --CHITTA has fulfilled it's function of enjoyment and the liberation .So it is satisfied . So the CHITTA goes back to it's origin which is NATURE-- GUNALINATA -balance of 3 GUNAS. and lastly the ATMSTHITI- PURUSHA is in it's own status . So the dance that occurs due to combination of PURUSHA AND PRAKRUTI-- the SPIRIT and the NATURE stops.
