For, he says, in the clause 'beyond the Great is the Unevolved, beyond the Unevolved is the Person, we recognise the arrangement of entities as established by the Sankhya-system, and hence must take the 'Unevolved' to be the Pradhana.
Where, on the other hand, the Holy One declares the ahamkara a special effect of the Unevolved to be comprised within the sphere of the Objective, he means that principle which is called ahamkara, because it causes the assumption of Egoity on the part of the body which belongs to the Not-self.
For Brahman having non-sentient matter for its body, that state which consists of the three gunas and is denoted by the term 'Unevolved' is something effected. And the text, 'When there was darkness, neither day nor night, states that also in a total pralaya non-sentient matter having Brahman for its Self continues to exist in a highly subtle condition. Upanishad refers to.
Man is progressive; the outer meaning given long ago to unevolved men must needs be very limited, and unless something deeper and fuller than this outer meaning were hidden within it, the value of the Scripture would perish when a few millennia had passed away.
Your good or bad thought or deed will not only affect your next rebirth, but will likewise affect in some sort the nature of worlds yet unevolved, wherein, after innumerable cycles, you may have to live again. Of course, this tremendous idea has no counterpart in modern evolutional philosophy. Mr.
The elements in their fine state are what is called the 'Unevolved, and this entering into a particular condition becomes the body.
During a pralaya it unites itself with Brahman and abides in its subtle state, without any distinction of names and forms; it then is called the 'Unevolved, and by other similar names.
Men are at every stage of evolution, from the most barbarous to the most developed; men are found of lofty intelligence, but also of the most unevolved mentality; in one place there is a highly developed and complex civilisation, in another a crude and simple polity.
The term 'Death' here denotes matter in its extremely subtle form, which in other texts is called Darkness; as we infer from the order of enumeration in another passage in the same Upanishad, 'the Unevolved is merged in the Imperishable, the Imperishable in Darkness. That this Darkness is called 'Death' is due to the fact that it obscures the understanding of all souls and thus is harmful to them.
For a moment Ben Blair stood as he had risen, gazing westward where the other had departed, but seeing nothing, not even a shadow. Clouds had formed over the sky, and the night was of intense darkness. To attempt to follow a trail now was waste of time; and gradually, as he stood there, the unevolved fury of the man transformed. His tongue became silent; not a human being had heard the outburst.
