VIBHUTI PAAD --SUTRA 17

           SHABD,  ARTHA,  PRATYAYA,  ITARA  ITARA  ADHYASAT  SANKARAH  TAT

                           PRAVIBHAGA  SAYAMAT  SARVBHUTA  RUTA DNYANAM

          WORD, MEANING AND IDEAS ARE CONFUSED TO BE SAME , BUT BY SAIYAM OR

           CONCENTRATION , ONE CAN ATTAIN THE KNOWLEDGE OF SOUNDS OF ANY                                                                         
                                                                 LIVING BEING

When a sound is produced , we can make a word out of it and there is meaning to it and then we get the Big Picture . If I say a word  Dog, the listener understands it . The sound which is produced by letters D-O-G make the word dog . And we understand what it means and we see a dog that we know.If we do not understand the English language , we will here the sound but it will not mean anything. So the sound -word is different than the meaning . For us to understand the word Dog we must have seen the dog and known about the Dog . So the three things are separate from each other, but when we KNOW the thing , we think all three to be same .

   We are told here that the three things are different and when we concentrate on these . we can get the difference between them . But moreover , we are also told that when we achieve the concentration, we can understand the sound produced by any living thing .

   I am not sure if this is the POWER or the SIDHHI that is achieved by the meditation . This would mean that the Yogi will be in position to understand any language and any branch -words from physics or chemistry -medicine -IT etc. would be understood . This is not limited to the human sounds ,but such Yogi can understand any sound -even made by birds or animals etc. Again this the power that is achieved by Yogi with great practice of concentrating on these sounds .
