[Advaita-l] Where is this Sloka?

[H S Chandramouli]

A correction. The sentence



 Thus the first part of the verse represents dvaitic understanding ( Jiva
identified with all three amsas namely Suksma sharira , Chidabhasa and
Cosciousness ) , the second part vishishtadvaitic understanding ( Jiva
identified with the two amshas Chidabhasa and Consciousness ) and the third
part ( Jiva identified with Consciousness alone ) advaitic understanding.



 should read as



 Thus the first part of the verse represents dvaitic understanding ( Jiva
identified with Suksma sharira ) , the second part vishishtadvaitic
understanding ( Jiva identified with Chidabhasa ) and the third part ( Jiva
identified with Consciousness alone ) advaitic understanding.



 Regret the error.

> I was reminded of this post while listening to the talk by Sri Paramarthananda Swamiji delivered on 24th jan 2015 on Vichara Sagara. The Swamiji quoted this verse while dealing with the  the Chit Chaturvidhya Prakriya first propounded by Swami Vidyaranya in Panchadashi and elaborated in Vichara Sagara. In this prakriya Jiva is provisionally considered as the mixture of three parts namely Sukshma sharira, Chidabhasa and Consciosness. The context was the Mahavakya Tattvamasi. In this context he mentioned that this verse is quoted very often these days. What interested me was his interpretation of the second part jIvabuddhyA tvadamshakah . In line with the prakriya he was explaining , he interpreted that when Jiva is identified with the Chidabhasa ( of the prakriya ) then it is a part of Consciousness ( amshakah ) . Thus the first part of the verse represents dvaitic understanding ( Jiva identified with all three amsas namely Suksma sharira , Chidabhasa and Cosciousness ) , the second part vishishtadvaitic understanding ( Jiva identified with the two amshas Chidabhasa and Consciousness ) and the third part ( Jiva identified with Consciousness alone ) advaitic understanding. I liked the linking of the two very much and thought of sharing the same here. I thought it might be of interest to you.
> Sri Swamiji also mentioned that he was not aware of the source of the verse. I am trying to bring your post to his attention through one of his students.
