Dear members,
Pls. accept adiyEn's namaskArams.

In chapter 2 of SrImad BG, there is this verse:

'avyakthAdhIni bhUthAni vyaktha madhyAni bhArathA |
avyaktha nidhanAn yEva thathrakA paridhEvanA || '

In this BhagawAn says,
`beings are unmanifested in the beginning, manifested in the middle
and again unmanifested in the end'

adiyEn doesn't understand the literal (layman's) meaning of this.
What is the layman's meaning of the term unmanifested (avyaktham) and
manifested (vyaktham) ?

Looking forward to your kind reply.

As rightly BhagawAn says in the very next verse,

' ......
AScharyavachchaina manya Sr'uNOthi
Sr`uthvApyEnam vEdha nachaiva kaSchith ',

adiyEn could only get dazzled by hearing these lofty philosophies and
not really grasp them.

adiyEn,
chandrasekaran.

Dear Sri Chandrasekaran :
The best person in the list who can answer your
queries is Sriman Krishna Kalale .

Much of AchArya RaamAnujA's and Swami Desikan's
inspiration to write commentaries on Srimadh
Bhagavath Gita came from Sri AlavandhAr's original
Sri Sookthi named " GeethArtha sangraham " .
That is a treasure house of information
on the essence of GeethA . I wrote about it
few months back .I am noyt sure whether I
published it in Bhakthi list or not .
When you get a chance , you can read
it along with Swami Desikan's Tamil
echo of this Sanskrit work bty Sri AlavandhAr .
Best wishes ,
V.Sadagopan

The Jivas are mingled with the prakriti in the state of dissolution , when creation starts they by their sanskaras assume jiva bhava and enjoy different bodies at dissolution it is the same again waiting for creation to assume drifting across different yonis.
