The past and the future are in reality present in their fundamental forms, there being only difference in the characteristics of the forms taken at different times. 13. Characteristics, which are present at all times, are manifest and subtle, and are composed of the three Gunas. 14.

In spite of sameness of objects, on account of there being separate minds they (the object and its knowledge) follow different paths, that is why they are entirely different. 16. Object is not dependent on one mind, because if it were so, then what will happen when it is not cognised by that mind ? 17. External objects are known or unknown to the mind according as they colour the mind. 18. On account of the immutability of Purusha who is master of the mind, the modifications of the mind are always known or manifest. 19.
