v7.c96.s1.45

²⁶¹⁶ The तै. सं V. 7 5 7 has . एतासामेव देवताना सायुज्यता गच्छति But this is entirely different from the idea of मोक्ष. The words सायुज्य, सारूप्य and सलोकता occur in ऐ आ II. 24. सायुज्य and सलोकता occur in बृह उ. I. 3. 22, सलोकता, सार्टिता (same happiness) and सायुज्य occur in छा. उ II 20 2. The सूतसहिता (मुक्तिखण्ड chap 3 28) speaks of the same four stages of मोक्ष सायुज्य is derived from सयुज् (yoked or joined together) The words सयुज याजान (horses yoked together) occur in Rg III 30. 11 and सयुजा (meaning सयुजौ) occurs in Rg. I. 164 20. The पुरुषार्थसुधानिधि of सायण (Madras Govt Oriental Mss Series, ed. by T Chandrasekharan, 1955) in its मोक्षस्कन्ध states . मुक्तिर्नानाविधा मोक्ता सायुज्यादिप्रभेदत । तत्र सायुज्यरूपाया मुक्ते साक्षात्तु कारणम् । सम्यग्ज्ञान न कर्माक्ति नानयोश्च समुच्चय । कर्मणैव हि सिध्यन्ति पुमानन्याश्च मुक्तयः॥ (chap II Verses 2-3)
