| 9. And I am the
agreeable odour in the earth and the brilliance in the fire, the vitality
in all beings and I am the austerity in ascetics.In Me as odour the earth
is woven.Odour by itself is agreeable ; the disagreeableness of odour in
the earth and of the like being due to the combination of one element with
some other element or elements under the influence of the avidya and adharma
of individual souls in the world. agreeableness thus spoken of with reference
to the earth applies also to the agreeableness of the sapidity in waters,
and so on.I am the vitality in all beings, that by which all beings live.
In Me as austerity the ascetics are woven. |
