SORTILEGES OF MAY AND JUNE 1912

Sortileges

20^th May. 1912.

While thinking of present British policy in India.

 न समानजातियेनैवोपकारदर्षनात् |

Brih. Up. 552.

D[itt]o—of present state of siddhi with regard to mental & ideal thought & action, error & truth & the replacement of manas by vijnanam or satyam.

1. अथ तेनेत्येवोपक्षीणः स्मार्त प्रत्यय इदमिति चान्य एव वार्तमानिकः प्रत्ययः क्षीयते ततः सादृशमिति | अनेकदर्शिन एकस्याभावात् ||

( to be taken for sortilege as with drishti). Brih. Up. 574.

Note. The chief difficulties now experienced are the habit of judging by past experience and association( स्मार्तः) and that of judging by present indications( वार्तमानिकः) and the insufficient power of judging by inner vision directly straight on the vishaya. This again is due to the insufficient realisation of the jnanam Brahma, anekadarshi ekam.

2. यदादित्यादिविलकक्षणं ज्योतिरान्तरं सिद्धमित्येत्दस्त् |

2. Brih. Up. 552.

All inner light effected, not of the vijnana, is asat & must be got rid of even if it seem to be intuition.

While thinking of the enormous difficulties of the sadhana; happened to open the drawer & saw on a stray piece of paper (R's [Ramaswamy's] Latin translation)

"a su surmonter toutes les difficultés et s'assurer une vie durable."

5^th June 1912     Thesis—R.F. I p. 147

1. De nombreux accidents eurent lieu. (Subsequent to "Titanic")  

1286

2. Toute usurpation a un cruel retour et celui qui usurpe devrait y songer, du moins pour ses enfants qui presque toujours portent la peine.

3. (p. 290) On a déjà vu que les membres de cette noblesse échappée de France étaient divisés en deux partis; les uns[,] vieux serviteurs, nourris de faveurs, et composant ce qu'on appelait la cour, ne voulaient pas, en s'appuyant sur la noblesse de province, entrer en partage d'influence avec elle et, pour cela, ils n'entendaient recourir qu'à l'étranger; les autres comptant davantage sur leur épée, voulaient soulever les provinces du Midi en y réveillant le fanatisme.
