VIBHUTI PAAD SUTRA -43


                         BAHIR  AKALPITA  VRUTTIH  MAHAVEDAHA  TATAH

                                       PRAKASH AWARANAH  KSHAYAH

THE  PERCEPTION BY MIND  OR CHITTA  EXISTING  OUT SIDE  BODY  WITHOUT ANY

IMAGINATION  IS CALLED GREAT  BODY LESS STATE WHICH REMOVES  THE

                    IGNORANCE  WHICH OBSTRUCTS THE LIGHT ( OF WISDOM)

      We are so used to feel that the body and mind or CHITTA  are always together . We can not imagine the two being different. We think that if there is no mind there is no physical body . Even if the mind is confused , like i  patient with delirium or dementia , there is still a MIND. So as long as there is body there is mind . So under ordinary conditions the mind can not be without body and body can nor exists without mind. We can  imagine the body without mind - or may be we can SEE the body without mind . This is called KALPITA or imagined . but we can not FEEL the mind to be independent of the physical body.

     When one starts doing meditation and then can understand the separate elements of the body, which includes physical and the astral and the causal body,then one KNOWS that the mind and the intellect and the ego are separate from the physical body . The CHITTA is 'mind stuff' So when the CHITTA or mind stuff -which is more than what is called mind in English , can see itself without the physical body , that is called 'MAHAVIDEHA' state . MAHA is big and the VIDEHA is without body. In this state one does not have to IMAGINE but one knows that the Mind is different than the physical body and so this is called AKALPITA-one which is not imagined .

    The reason one can not see the CHITTA being separate from physical body is due to ignorance . So when one can perceive the mind being different and separate existence for the body , the ignorance is removed . This ignorance was obstructing the light of the wisdom .
