The commentator thinks that this has reference to the incarnation of Trivikrama i.e., the dwarf suddenly expanding his form till with two steps he covered Heaven and Earth and demanded space for his third step. 168. i.e., thou art possessed of Yoga knowledge. The two together form one name. These are Vija, Sakti, and Kilakani. A kakud is a hump or elevated place in the body.
Averroes was also a physician, but he was more of a philosopher, poet, lawyer, and commentator. He acquired a reputation so profound, that passing centuries have only served more firmly to establish it. The disposition made by this remarkable man of his time during the different periods of his existence, will illustrate his mental character.
The great commentator on English law, Sir William Blackstone, defines suicide to be "the act of designedly destroying one's own life. To constitute suicide, the person must be of years of discretion and of sound mind." In a case submitted to the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Chief-Justice Nelson settled the whole question.
Learned Brahmanas are like swans for in discoursing upon even the topics of the world they select what is good and instructive but reject what is evil and sinful, or, as the Commentator puts it, they know the difference between what is soul and what is not soul. Vrijinam is explained by the commentator as 'Sankatam, phalasa iti yavat' etc.
I suppose if anyone has a right to indulge in the convenience of indented headings when writing a discursive article, I may claim a share in the privilege. When I retired from the editorship of a morning newspaper, a not obtrusively friendly commentator wrote that my chief claim to be remembered in that connection was that I had invented sign-posts for leading articles.
Or, it may imply, mere existence, without reference, that is, to any attribute by which it is capable of being described or comprehended. 92. i.e., Virat or vast or Infinite. The task of rendering these names is exceedingly difficult. In the original, many of these names are such that they are capable of more than one interpretation. The commentator often suggests more than one meaning.
That mental strength which gives birth to original discovery had passed away. The commentator had succeeded to the philosopher. No new development illustrated the physical sciences; they were destined long to remain stationary.
The body is as it were a pit into which the soul falls, determined by Desire and Ignorance. Vasu, the commentator explains, indicates the Wind, for it means that which establishes all things into itself. Nisachara is one acting through nisa, or Avidya, i.e., one who enjoys all objects, implying Jiva invested with Ignorance.
Of course it stands for an Akshauhini. Kavi or Kavya is another name of Sukra, the preceptor of the Daityas. Krishna implies Vyasa here. The great Rishi was called 'the island-born Krishna'. The commentator explains that by the constellation Dhruba is implied Rohini and the Uttaras numbering three. Sunday, again is called the Dhruba-day. Agnivesya was another name of Dhaumya.
Lapo Salterelli, one of the co-exiles of Dante, and specially hated by him, was a personage who appears to have exhibited the rare combination of judge and fop. An old commentator, in recording his attention to his hair, seems to intimate that Dante alludes to it in contrasting him with Cincinnatus.
